85 Dodge w150 Rebuild - Install #7 - Correcting Cowl Cracks
Video Note: A small chip in the lens was causing the glare. By the time I was reviewing old footage I had already recorded hours of footage with a glare. Its been corrected and I check them more frequently after grinding on the truck.
In this video we are fixing the dreaded cracked cowl on the early Dodge trucks. If the small weld at the top of the cowl fails the 2 sections can begin to separate. Im preventing that by adding in a simple plate. This truck is planned to be a cruiser.
If you will be flexing the cab a bit more vigorously, I would recommend you fab a larger bracket like here: th-cam.com/video/28dTgZ6sPZ4/w-d-xo.html

This video took place mid floor repair. Before seam sealing inside the cab I had to finish all welding under the cab. In order to complete that I had to remove the transmission assembly. I will replace the clutch and resurface the flywheel while it is all out. I used a transmission jack from harbor freight to assist in the 1 man operation. the transmission and transfer case shifted flawless bef...
Fixing peeling paint and rust under the rear window of a Mazda
มุมมอง 16หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video I attempt to permanently fix the rust developing under the rear window of my Mazda CX-5. Bit of a design flaw on the rear window of some cars. Without sealant in the crevasse below the window, it allows water to pool and rest. Over time this wears down the clear coat, then the paint, eventually leading to rust. I decided not to just repaint which would lead to a repeat of the issu...

Installing a cheap diesel heater for garage heat
มุมมอง 4995 หลายเดือนก่อน
Trials and tribulations of the attempted pre 2023 winter garage heater install. Not completed till Feb 2024 due to . Watch to see how I was able to get a cheap diesel heater to heat a 2 car garage for a PNW winter. After a year everything is still running great. I still want to move the heater to the other side of the garage and add an exhaust like this: th-cam.com/video/3x5t4Zvkqms/w-d-xo.html
85 Dodge W150 Rebuild - Tear down #8 - Gas tank, Gas shocks and Gas fumes
มุมมอง 4510 หลายเดือนก่อน
To weld in the passenger floor pan I wanted to get the exhaust out of the way. I choose to remove it in 1 piece vs cutting it up. To do this I had to remove the driveshaft, rear shocks and gas tank. Super frustrating day with no access to rusted bolts
Combining 2 outlets into a single recessed
มุมมอง 2610 หลายเดือนก่อน
With the Cat6e ran properly during basement insulation, I can finally wire it properly. Removing the old outlet reveled a chunk of missing insulation and exposed wires. So I had to sit the outlet a bit higher than I wanted. That shadow is from the shop light when power was removed during install. It about 10x darker on camera than was in the room.

Sloth started to droop and his hand was getting in the way while sitting in the right corner of the couch. Had to raise him back up and add an extra clamp on the rope.
Seal vents and Insulating crawlspace

Closed up some crawlspace vents with expanding foam and wood blocks. Added soft and rigid insulation between crawl and exterior. Covered some of the concrete foundation with rigid foam board. During the project I also reran cat6 through the flooring vs dangling. Fixed a messed up wiring job supplying electrical to outdoor shed. Guest Starring Cheddar the Cat

Leaf springs mounted then axle to springs. Bolted down shock mounts but ordered shocks were wrong. The lower ball is a huge PITA to stop from rotating while torquing on MOOG Ball Joints.

Pity the background music is too loud to hear you properly. Subscribed for effort though. Maybe re-edit and boost up the narrative and pull down the background music..
@WalrusRiderEntertainment for real, dang I spent so much time trying to make that not happen. Will fix pronto!
