Saint Mary! Behind every good man is a good woman Clutch! She not only dug you out during the blizzard , but also helps fixing the Truck. You definitely out kicked your coverage Clutch!
Always a great day when you can save money and spend some hours at home. Safe travels!
Don't you just love it when somebody references the Red Green show a wonderful trucker's wife Miss Mary glad to see you made it home and yes you were trailer trucking I was born in the left lane you and your family have a blessed day
Hey clutch and rusty, always good content. You are a very lucky man. Your wife is awesome. It definitely takes a certain kind of woman to deal with us truck drivers. Stay safe
Great video!
Thanks for the video…helped me fix my seat
Glad I could help
Hello Mary....pleased to meet you.......
cheers from Australia.....
Quick and dirty. Good job Mr Fix it. Having the right tools makes a difference too.
Awesome video thanks
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You saved my day!!
Cool. Glad I could help
Great job
I have actually read bits and pieces of that book. It helped me build a few things in my younger days.
Good Job!
I’m not afraid to get my rest and reschedule any load, I don’t even politely ask anymore, I just reschedule and say “ see ya then” 😀
Be safe!!
Thats the way to do it!
You got to go when you feel safe for you and rusty and the other people around in other trucks and vehicles to be safe. It's good your wife come out and did her part to help you.
After living in Southeast Alaska for 21 years and everything comes out of Seattle on barges they can wait a day or two in Seattle there probably going to put the washers on a barge for Alaska. You and rusty have a good safe trip
12:04 😂 made me laugh out loud 😂
You had a good helper!
The brst
Best
Our local library has your Dads book as does Amazon! Wise parents teach their children, male or female how to do repairs! As well as how to do laundry, cook, clean. In our family we call these money saving life skills. Safe travels.
You couldn’t be more correct Beth!
Thx.
Windy is bad in Nebraska right now I was in julesburg co yesterday the ❄️ bad on the road is April hail showing still🙃
I believe it I ran into snow up around elk Mountain
Good Job Bro, and nice miles in 1 day Hammer Down........
I know that feeling about the wind. I actually had a couple times where the parking lot was icier than 💩 and the wind blew my loaded trailer into the truck next to mine
Wow haven’t seen that before but I believe it’s possible
Rusty is a good boy!
At least you're in the best company possible, your Lady! Lucky bastard! 🤣🤣🤣
I heard what I thought was 45 gunshot to side of RV. Both seats lost air. Freightliner M2 2004. Can't locate location of problem. I'll try driving on 2 pillows to a service center off i95 in VA south.
Ouch. Probably a blown air bag or brake chamber
@ClutchTrucker but passenger seat air ride works find. Dash says normal air pressure. Rv rear suspension air bags not collapsed. No air hissing sounds in cab. Glad I wasn't driving when driver seat suddenly collapsed; ax for sure at 65mph !
thanks.... no parts used lists????
Sorry. I’ll try to do that in future videos
Get a couple of those swamp cooler line repair kits. Same diameter..
That’s true are used to have to fix my grandmother swamp cooler all the time and you’re right it’s the exact same size diameter line
I see Rusty gets his good looks from mom.😄
Have you done a video on fixing the locking lever on the driver's seat
So I will not keep sliding back and forth?
No I haven’t. But I’ll look into that
Daaaang Clutch....you have a really lovely wife! You lucky man.
Where do you get the quick connect for the air seat
Any shop or truck dealer. Only a buck or two. Just need the right size. I believe that’s a 1/4” fitting
Great video Same problem. I’m going to stop at peterbilt and get parts. Did you have to empty air tanks first ?
No. If u do it quick enough. No need to empty tanks
Funny I find an air leak in my seat today and here you are doing a video about the same thing oh and yes I fixed it myself same thing you did without the little jack . I used a piece of wood
Piece of wood or a book will work in that situation the jacks just a little bit safer and like I say I think I paid 20 bucks for it off Amazon one of the best things I ever bought
And kudos to you for doing it yourself
@@ClutchTrucker I’ve been in trucking one way or another since 1978 . I do minor repairs as you said it was a 5 minute job oh and I wasn’t near home so no lovely lady to film it.
How did you turn it off do that air isn't pushing out thru the tube
Just fold it over itself and tape it down. Like you’d stop water flowing through a garden hose
Hey, thanks for video. How do you find the right air bag ?
Air bag was fine on that one. Was just a air line
Clutch, I’m a company driver in a speed-governered truck at 68 MPH and the furthest ever been do drive on my 11 hour drive clock was 689 miles. Kinda jealous you can beat my maximum daily distance by over 100 miles!!!
If it hadn’t been for a fairly light load and the 80 mph speed limits in Wyoming and Utah there’s no way in hell I could’ve made that
Are the metal connections better than the plastic ones? Did this same fix on my rig and my seat will hold air but not enough to withstand the weight of a body
I’ve found the plastic are just as good. And actually don’t tend to hang up as much. Perhaps you need to get the tube shoved into the quick connect a little farther
That’s life and shit happens you said it Brotha
Question? My bus seat has two positions. Either all the way up or all the way down. There is no middle selection. I don’t have an air leak going on. Can you or other readers tell me how I can fix this problem please?
Check if it has a lever for air ride or not. Used to drive a bus. And if the lever was in the wrong position. It was either up or down like you say
Your wife is so very lovely!!! Lucky trucker!!!
What size is the tube?
1/8 inch
When it comes to break downs as an O/O you wanna control cost as much as possible. That’s what my dad would say.
Winds are going to get worse for a while... maybe through June..
Well then I guess I’ll try to make sure I always have heavy loads right
How is it that Mary looks like she is still 18 and we look so old?
That ain't cool.
I know I fix the simple mechanism on the truck like mudflab etc
Literally any repair you can do yourself on the truck it’s just more money in your pocket
I would make more stops at home!!!! Lovely woman!!!!
If women don’t find you handsome, they should at least find you handy. :-)
😂 thanks
Keep your stick on the ice. Lol
Mondo Omni flunkis morti
@@kylemcarthur7729 if it ain’t broke, you’re not trying. :-)
A nothere job well done by our train technician
Your wife is so pretty clutch!
Yes...you ain't joking on the seat guillotining your fingers off.. Most people dont realize how heavy those seats are... I cringe thinking about it, cause it doesn't come down nice and slow... it means business
So true. That’s why I didn’t attempt without the bottle jack
Only thing worse is slamming your fingers in the door, Ouch!!!🤬
This is one nightmare I have had, I was always afraid to bring my dog because he was the type to stick his head under there and I was afraid the seat would come down on him with me on the seat. He liked getting his head under the brake and gas petal in my personal car. He passed now I really miss having a dog but I dont know how to run keeping them safe. Kudos to clutch trucker and the rest who have pets ride with them!
@@jasonduke3608 You got a great point my little dog used to climb around under my seat. People dont realize seats got grease points also. By the time I would get home my little white doggy was filthy dirty
Rusty learned early on the standard it right out from underneath the petals and one time when the seed balls real hard when he was underneath it and he got a little bit pinch then he doesn’t do that anymore
She is not only lovely, she is hot too❤️
Yeah I don’t understand why the person that plumbed that airline the way they did 🤔. Job well done.
As my dad always said just because somebody has a certain job doesn’t mean they’re good at it
Maybe it's time to take a week off..😴😴
Man.... you need a manicure 💅
😂
Me: I told a Shipper once, I am not late...cos I am still in credit..
shipper: credit?… what do you mean?
Me: Well you delayed me here, here and here....I am late once, so I am still in credit....
Shipper didnt see the logic in that..🙄🙄🙄...lol
Makes perfect sense to me but shippers and receivers think they can always be running behind but God for bid whatever late love it
Most of these clowns would call road service. They probably don’t even have a screwdriver
I know that many don’t I’ve seen people wait for five hours in a TA just to get a lightbulb replaced it’s crazy
Quick and dirty = spend 3 minutes yammering on about nonsense before getting to the reason we came here.
As I always say. No one is forcing U to watch.
@@ClutchTrucker I wasn't forced, I was looking for useful information about a repair not whatever you felt the need to drone on about.
Well the info was still there. I still showed how to do it. Just fast forward next time. Then u won’t be annoyed
Taking way too long to get to the point...
Then don’t watch
