Ford F3 Restoration Project Episode 5: Chassis work
มุมมอง 1.2K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video i prep and paint the chassis with red oxide primer to help protect it whilst it still has no back on and is still exposed. It came out pretty well although there are some sections around the engine bay that i couldn't get to, so they will have to be done when i remove the engine.

I attempt a few methods of freeing seized bolts etc.. The plan is to remove and restore the rear axle first and then once refitted move on to removing the engine and front axle to restore the front end of the truck. Like & Subscribe to follow thi...

มุมมอง 1.2K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
Episode 3 of the f3 restoration. In this video i work on removing the front grille and bumper, along with the doors. I hit a few challenges as expected with the old bolts etc.. The door pins were tricky and i will have to create bushes/washers to space out where i had to cut the with grinder. The actual plate on the hinge should be relatively easy to tidy up with weld and grinding flat so not t...
Ford f3 Restoration Project Episode 2: Wheels and wheel arch removal

Episode 2 of my restoration project of the 1949 Ford F3 Flatbed Truck. A lot of the panel work fixings are rusted and seized so most will need replacing when i rebuild the truck. This video includes removing the wheel arches which was a bit tricky getting to all the fixings tucked away. I also (attempted to) Remove the front wheel to give me more access but had issues with the wheel nuts. I rea...

Sinister gully, Ogwen valley. Grade 1 scramble

Footage from my solo scramble up sinister gully with a commentary and review This is a grade 1 scramble but does have some tricky sections, so not to be taken lightly! This route is sometimes scrambled with climbing gear by some, so if free climbing its probably best in good weather or with the appropriate equipment Follow on Instagram @Dantro. outdoors for more outdoors content and actvities!
Crib Lem (Crib Goch's little brother) Grade 1 Scramble. Hidden gem in North Wales

A commentary of my scramble up crib Lem in North wales. This scramble is hidden away in the Carneddau range and takes you to the summit of Carnedd Dafydd. it takes over an hour to hike up the valley from Bethesda, but well worth it on a good weather day as the views are amazing. The scramble itself isn't too difficult with a few route choices which means you can choose how exposed you want to c...

If you drain the oil in the differential make sure to tilt it from side to side when you replace it so you get oil to the wheel bearings. And yes threads are left hand on the drivers side and right on the right side or vice versa. Be sure and check so you don't break a stud. I found out the hard way myself.
Im just thrilled that you're saving it, god forbid we have another workhorse great reduced to a hotrod and sat on a sissy boy S10 chassis, awesome work
@@geoffreymills9932 cheers! Going to be a bit of a long project doing it on evenings and weekends when I get spare time, but hopefully it'll turn out well!
You've probably learned by now that if you take the weight of the cab off those bolts they'll slide right out
@@geoffreymills9932 yeah 👍 I did try lifting the cab slightly to take the weight but because the bolt was a pretty tight fit and the mounts tucked into eachother, lifting the cab caused it to then pinch on the top annoyingly and there didn't seem to be any free spot without any pressure, so cutting and replacing the bolt became the easiest option
👍
Brakes on a Kenworth is the same. Easier to pull out the rollers than to fight with the springs.
That’s a good tip! I wouldn’t have thought of it.
G'day nice video mate 👍
@@Murphyslawfarm thanks mate!
G'day nice work mate
@@Murphyslawfarm thanks mate!
G'day wow the chassis is in good nick for its age
G'day great video mate
G'day i was just thinking is it hard to get a LHD vehicle registered over there because its a big pain to get a LHD registered in Australia.
I've not imported a vehicle myself but they're quite common over here LHD's, so I'd imagine as long as you know what to do on the paperwork side it isn't too bad
@@Dantro.outdoors Cool
G'day I always liked the shape of these old fords
G'day nice video mate
G'day from Australia just found your channel and subbed mate 👍
@@Murphyslawfarm thankyou! Cool to see people taking an interest in the restoration
@@Dantro.outdoors I am a sucker for a nice restoration mate 👍
Looks good! That left hand thread wheel studs - too bad that wasn't caught before you had those other troubles.. If I'd thought of it I would have suggested it. My Dad had a Freightliner truck that had left hand threads on one side. - I think it was some theory of things coming loose because or the direction of rotation.
@@lovesloudcars yeah frustrating about the front! That was my guess as to why they were different on either side
👍that’s going to make a great looking ride
@@Rat_Poison_Devil it's definitely got potential! Looking forward to making it my own in the later stages of the restoration
hi bud the old ford trucks have lefthanded wheel nuts on the drivers side
@@bertbert7592 thanks mate, annoyingly I did figure this out after awhile haha, and think it comes up in the episode 6 when removing the rear wheels for removing the axle
Will you leave it that color in the end? You might have answered that but I didn't catch it.
@@lovesloudcars planning on going back to black with the top coats
Quite the process. Somewhat terrifying to think what if i can't get it back together before I forget how I did it?"
@@lovesloudcars yeah it's always a concern but got plenty of photos and videos to help jog the memory once I get there, so hopefully should manage alright
Its funny how some things I notice and others I don't. I live in Canada and obviously drive a left hand drive vehicle, but also have 4 right hand drive vehicles that I drive regularly. Have my British license since 1990. So watching this one, it suddenly occurred to me that you're working on a left hand drive vehicle, not a right hand drive! ( maybe I'm too busy..)
@@lovesloudcars yeah I'm not massively keen on left hand drive on the UK roads but with this being more about the project side and the cab being pretty central it didn't bother me too much. My other vehicle is a right hand drive converted dodge ram. Always wanted a ram but didn't want the LHD so when this one came up on eBay I had to treat myself haha
Slow and steady wins the race.
Wasn't exactly sure what you said about the switch on the floor, but in case you don't know what it is, it's the dipper switch I believe you call them? To dim or brights for headlights. They're dead cheap. I'm surprised how nice of shape it is. Really good.
@@lovesloudcars thanks for that! The original headlights aren't working, only the additional lights like indicators and back lights on the new wiring, so that makes sense why the switch wasn't doing anything Yeah the cab is in good condition, there's a fair bit of work to the front bumper as that is badly corroded but probably won't be onto the body work for awhile as currently working on the base. So chassis, back axle, leaf springs etc...
Sounds like its running fine. Are you planning to do much mechanical work on it or mostly body and paint type stuff?
@@lovesloudcars whatever it takes really, plan is to take it right back and try to sort anything I find along the way and whilst rebuilding it
Rob recommended your channel. Cool looking old truck. I had a 49 Ford pickup once that was a "Project to do" & ended up giving it to a buddy when we moved too far away to take it. My profile photo is a 59 Chevy I put a Detroit Diesel engine in it. (few videos of that posted). I'd like to hear this one running. What make is the engine? I liked the video short & sweet. Sometimes I don't subscribe to things because I think I can't afford the time to be a "regular" viewer. Subscribed here. good luck on the project & look forward to the transformation. Nathan.
@@lovesloudcars thanks man! The engine in mine is a 4l diesel ford/fordson engine from what we can tell, I think I've got a video of it running before I started stripping it so I might post that Cheers, appreciate the feed back and subscription! Yeah should be a good one, may take a while but excited to do more on it
@@Dantro.outdoors if that's a Fordson engine like in a Super Major, that's awesome. We had one in my youth , extremely economical motor. Looking forward to following along.
@@lovesloudcars we think it is! My brother is doing a fordson super major as a project himself and the engine is almost identical apart from the head and rocker cover with the tractor being a 3.6L and this one being a 4L
Yeah bro top g that. Looks like real good fun hope you enjoyed
TH-cam put you in the feed. Maybe because I look at so many mountaineering videos.
Well thankyou for watching!
Great hiking there. 👋🏻👍🏼
It is! So much to explore in one area
