I love seeing budget tools like Ryobi grinders and the harbor freight blue flame helmet in videos.
We really try to do things the way most of you will be doing it at home. A lot of the tools needed for these jobs is going to get used once in a home garage setting, so we tend to try and approach our vids the same way. Thanks for watching!
Thank you sir, another great tutorial. Several nights of watching your how to vids is giving me the confidence to give this a try with a good result.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback! Good luck with your project!
Thank you Dave Welch for your knowledge

Any chance of getting a video of rain gutter repairs? Thanks for the great videos.
We'll add that to the list! Thank you for the suggestion!
nice job how about bed wood install on 65 fleetside with exposed bolts
We're gearing up to do a bed wood prep and install video in the next few weeks, should come out sometime in March.
Turn the heat up and let the weld sink flush in the gap.
Excellent video! Thanks again!! I have the same repair to do.
Good luck with your project!
Very helpful video 5star on this one, I like it
Thanks for watching!
I’ll tell ya what, I check out a lot of videos on UA-cam and these are the most complete, and I mean right down to being able to order what you need at the end of the video, and there’s no loud club music
Thanks for the comment, and thanks for watching!
What type of grinding wheel is the one you recommended? Looks like it has 3 parts to it.
I recommend them all for various different jobs, but the most versatile is the flap wheel. The one I use with three parts consists of a hard backing plate, a stiff sanding pad and a nut/washer. It's good for accuracy.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV
I noticed the flaps grind faster. Very surprising. I'll look out for the 3 piece. Thanks
The 4.5” flap wheels are getting expensive and dull up fast, the three piece sands flatter for pennies per disc.
I'm staring my 65 c10 project. There are some bubbles and rust on the inside of the cab roof just above the windshield. Do you have a video that shows how to repair this section? Thanks
We don't have a video specifically for that, but the process and techniques of repairing that small rear would be exactly the same as shown in this video.
Another awesome job . Your experience makes it look easy.
Thank you for watching!
Why don't y'all some content on a 79 chevy C20 Longbed or similar? I only see thing about the 1970 to 72
I like the 70s and 80s chevy trucks
Chris, we have lot's of content on the Squarebody era trucks. Take a look back through our How-To Videos and you'll see we've done a lot of work on them over the last couple of years. We're even gearing up right now to do a complete dash restoration on a Squarebody.
Yes I see the videos, but it's more of the 70s model. I do like what y'all are doing so thanks for that, and I have a question about the speedometer cable. 1. How do u know which cable is bad? 2. How do u tell if the speedometer is bad?
@@chrisanderson6869 Spin both cables to see which one is binding. If the speedo is bad you can tell by spinning it backwards at a consistent speed and see if it bounces or does anything weird.
Sir, what kind of sanding/grinding wheel etc do you suggest to remove the paint ?
Are aftermarket doors a good option to just replace than try to repair a lot of rust? I heard mixed reviews on the fit and finish.
Aftermarket doors are an excellent option for door with a lot of rust. Back in the day, fit and finish was an issue, but that was 20 years ago. Some vendors still carry that old stuff because it's cheap, but stick with a vendor you trust and you'll be fine. We've installed reproduction doors that fit better than the original did.
Awesome! Thank you for the advice! It wouldn't take long at a body shop for the repair to cost more than a new shell. Which manufacturer do you reccomend/sell for 1964 C10?
@@darrylcowan3932 we always recommend our own. We tried them and tested them and we know they work. Part of the reason we do these videos is so we can test our own products amd make sure they work and we can provide customers tech when needed. www.brotherstrucks.com
Great, thank you for your time and attention!!
Where can I buy a column shifter spring for my sloppy shifter culumn
Does the front windscreen post sells?
Sorry Shawn, we don't understand the question. What would you like to know about the Windshiled?
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTVok picture the windscreen area. The top, bottom and the two short vertical sides. Those two post, mines needs replace.
@@shawnlawrence4840 Ok, we understand now. What year is your truck? We will try to find a project to work on here like yours.
@@BROTHERSTruckPartsTV 1984
If you have a similar truck could cut those two post off I'd gladly buy them from you if they are not made.
Great videos, it will be very helpful on a 73 Chevy project I'm starting. I've never used the patch panel clamps before, how does the bottom portion of the clamp come out once your welds are in place?
Once you have the panels secured with a weld, you simply unscrew the clamp and the little rod falls out of the back. You'll need a way to access the panel from behind to recover the rod.
