    Always pleasing to find a simple fix, Never throw important shit out. Thats what I tell my wife when she tells me to to clean the garage out. Sure as shit If i throw old car parts out ill need them next week.

    It doesn't matter to me if the video is for maintenance items or project trucks, keep them coming....I will watch. Fixing the rattles in that truck could turn into the longest video series yet!!

    I also would like to see a video of you using it on your farm. That would be cool.

    Really like the Ranch truck, for some reason always thought on those old 4X4’s that you had to take the hub and drum off together to get to the brakes and those tires are cool too, I think you can still get those through Coker tire but they are spendy.

    As someone trying to learn how to diagnose problems and fix stuff, I love this style of video. Great work! Can't wait to have my own highboy some day! I've been drooling over the one on BAT right now, but I have to sell my OBS 7.3 so I have the dough for something different.

    I like the content and as high as trucks are getting there’s gonna be more people fixing and using these old war horses to work out of. I’ve noticed in my area a lot of bullnose and brick nose trucks jerking trailers around with mini excavators and skid steers behind them working every day. Would like to see anything you do to the old ranch rig. Thanks for sharing.

    This 15:43 video awakens memories of my youth period in the 1970s. It seemed like I was working on brakes. Thanks for video.

    Hey Matt, that's my favorite truck of yours. What about doing a disc brake conversion to it.

    • @MattKubik1791
      @MattKubik1791  Місяць тому

      Thought about it. But it would be overkill for this outfit. The power drums have plenty of stopping power.

    Enjoyed this video, like to see the small maintenance jobs. I’ve had the adjusters brake but not spring, so that was new. Would be great to see electric steering conversion & your feed back on unit as i hope to put one on my 67

    take a grinder and grind off the outter edge of the drum where to shoes ride...and use anti seize on all mating surfaces of the drum..makes taking them off down the road a whole lot easier

    It’s good with stuff that shows how to I am getting ready to take a 390 fe apart and rebuild it I think it’s a car engine from 1964 I am going to have take it apart because it set in a shed without a head and intake on it and looks dirty and has some flash rust on it I would think that the cylinder will clean back up but I think it would be good to strip it down and tank it

    Is the 352/360 & 351m/400 the only engines offered from the factory on highboys? The 352 being only offered in 67 & the 351m/400 being only offered in 77, while all the yrs inbetween the 360 being the only engine offered? From what I know, that is the case. I'm wondering if you know different?

    • @MattKubik1791
      @MattKubik1791  Місяць тому +1

      For v8s you are correct! But 300/240 inline 6 were also an option.

      It’s a F-350 thing. The cab came off a donor f-350

      My 68 f250 camper special also had those lights, but both fenders needed replaced from being wrecked.

    Matt put a dang jackstand under your trucks when working on them with things like brakes, as you do not want a 3 thousand pound truck falling on you and turning you into a hamburger patty or a cripple.

    • @MattKubik1791
      @MattKubik1791  Місяць тому +1

      Absolutely agree! I wasn’t working under it any this time is the only reason there isn’t a stand.
