Pulling the rear axle shafts an popping the bearings out is so easy bet you guys would get a like for pulling them apart.. Keep it old school like a 12v should be
I've worked with a few 1st gens and honestly if your considering a dana 80 swap the best way in my opinion is find yourself a wrecked 2nd gen. Nv4500-dana80-ppump donor truck. If I was to do it again, I would just swap the 1st gen cab/box onto a 2nd gen frame. 1st gen front leaf and steering setup really sucks.
thats the smart thing but it looks like hes short on space and that makes a axle swap and trans swap which are already a project into a fucking full on commitment
John Mahon or spend the same money since people want triple their value and find a decent 6.0. they are just as good at making power under 1k dont have garbo trans and built better
Hey Greg, I've been watching everyone of your videos and I have a 91.5 d250 just like yours it's Intercooled, auto, and it's my first truck. I got it from a farmer when I was 14 for $2000 it's a 91.5 d250 auto no rust and 138k miles it's so similar to this truck to not even funny. Identical condition, surface rust on the frame and stuff but no actual rot. I'm 16 almost 17 now and I've straight piped it, made a intake for it using the factory air box and just making more holes for airflow and added a filter and made a cover out of plexiglass so it's clear and looks cool and bought some 4in exhaust pipe from a local shop and cut it to fit and bought silicone boots. Also I fixed the kdp and replaced the seal and valve lash adjusted and new valve cover gaskets. And fluids and maintenance and stuff. Also I had a 12mm ve pump built its fully benched and performance calibrated and I just need brakes, front end rebuilt, and new injectors cause I have a bad one and it will be ready to daily drive. Love the build keep it up.
I feel the same way about bees, wasps, yellow jackets, anything that can fly and has a sting I'm out. New to the channel and its great, I have an '08 and a '91 i love the tow pig. Keep up the good work.
I couldn't tell from the angle, is it a factory LSD? If it is, I'd spend the $100 in parts to rebuild the brakes, and get the drums turned. If it isn't a LSD, then it would probably be cheaper to rear swap it. Can't be having the one wheel peel!
Man, I sure do miss my ol 93... 3800 gov spring and a fuel pin make them trucks run great by the way. I'm sure y'all will go a lot further than just that though. look forward to seein what ya guys do!
greasymechanic yeah I thought the valves would float over 3500rpm. I want to get a 3400rpm spring . I have done a lot of pump mods straight piped side dump behind cab. I also use diesel additive and some bio diesel for pump lube. since the new ulsd diesel is so dry it is not good for our old ve pumps. It has been tested that 2%bio diesel is the best for lubricity. Better than 2 stroke oil or Howes diesel lubricant,Power service additives etc..
Dana 80 SRW is significantly wider than the 70. I'd stick with the 70. I've had some brake problems with mine, and have pulled the axle and drum probably a dozen times in the last 2 years. You get use to it. Lol
GREG! what would it take for me to get the black over the fender plastics I have been looking for a set forever! I have a 1991 d150 that I have been restoring for the past year I bought it when I turned 15 and I drive it every day now. love the show always look forward to watching all the stuff you guys do thanks!!
Just a question could we get some playlists of the different trucks like the 05 videos in one the tow truck one for scrap truck and other first gen stuff
Steam Jenny type machine would help cleaning it off big time plus the ol lady might like a steam tool, cuz that helps. no opinion on the rear but disc's are preferable. Good job boys
Because of yall, i went out and got a bag of the starburst gummies and ate the whole bag on my 45 min drive home from work .. made me sick .. hope to do it soon .. lol
hey I watch your videos all the time and have the same truck , I have a paddle overtime I go from park to drive after warm up I'm thinking its the exhaust just shaking like crazy what do you think ?
Greg, if you're gonna make it a race truck, you may as well throw the money in for a Dana 80 with the disc brakes. Judging by how old that diff fluid was, there's a pretty good chance that rear diff isn't gonna last long, especially under a lot of power like you want to make. So if I were you I'd bite the bullet and buy the 80.
invest in quality gaskets and seals for the rear end. Dana 70s are strong and are easy to clean up. make sure you buy the special axle nut socket. no offense but less talking and more working will get you very far.
come on greg i really think you can do seal and brakes on that dana 70 it is not hard at all . you might spend at the most $150 , dana 80 it is no gonna be cheap at all and you still gonna have to do brakes maybe seals so what is the point of the swap btw i was your number 10 subscriber i really like the channel
I will have a set of stage 2 dynamite diesel injector that I will donate to the cause when I swap them out they are only 2 months old. I will have no use for them.as soon as I get them they I will ship them out
Good afternoon friend!! Have you thought about making the caption available in your videos? I watch here from Brazil, and my English is not the best and with the subtitles in the videos would help a lot! Thank you!

or just buy a 2nd gen

John Mahon is it because you dont like that bulletproofed 6.0s are better then second gens? and cost virtually the same
I bought mine for 2900 so 96 2500 4wd manual that's better then ur throwaway

If you ever had one truck one turbo and one chance to mod everything you ever wanted in one season.. would u capture it or just let it sit?
Johnny Koch top comment😂😂
Muxcle Man 🐼 Panda 🐼 panda
thats awesome
i fully support a 80 in the rear and disks all the way around
Love this build!! Can't wait for upcoming videos
I did a dana 80 disk swap on my 99 cummins and I love it can't wait till the brakes wear down for the 3rd gen rotor upgrade
So stoked to see this beast get finished
I love the first gen, hope I can buy one someday
Ive always used the nut on the pump gear to bar the engine over but sometimes that can get a little messy

greasymechanic with heavier valve springs too right?
It's advised but not 100% necessary. kinda like head studs

They make disc conversions for that too, pretty cheap.

Sounds WAY better!!!
Fuel leak looks to becoming from your fuel supply line fitting to the pump;)
rollpan the bumpers
I'm with you on the Bee issue! Someone else go do it! Lol
Feelin' spoiled daily videos from you guys
All black would be nice on that first gen!!!
Totally know what it's like to find way more than expected when diving in for the first time 😂😢👍🏻
You're not the only one who doesn't do bees... don't matter how excited I am to do an install, if there's bees swarming, I'm out lol
you need a magnetic sweeper they are the best for lost hardware.
I'm addicted to this channel
Tomcat and I love what you are doing, my man.
what kinda Oakleys are No Boost wearing? I know they are infinite hero editions but what style
rollllll paaaaann
Look at it this way, if you ever do make horsepower with it it will already have good brakes and a stronger rearend.
Yes Dana 80!
I know your ocd and all but let it leak and find yourself d80 but take your time to find it cheap , I really like budget aspect of this truck
so much more room for activities
I'll sub. For more 12 valve videos
Thumbs up for straight pipe. Go for Dana 80.
I can't do bee spiders snakes or wasp. opened my door and. noticed a couple webs inside haha noooope
Do a Dana 80 disk rear end but put the rear bumper back on. Don't roll pan it!
Don't worry your lawnmower will find the bolt
might as well upgrade to disc brakes in the rear if they sell a kit for it
Wish I had the free time to do all this stuff lol 60 to 70+ hour work weeks suck
greg since you lost that bolt you should of had a magnet sweeper
keeping the decals / emblems ? Greg ? Will pay.
isn't that rear Axle a AAM 11.5" 14 bolt Axle?
invest in quality gaskets and seals for the rear end. Dana 70s are strong and are easy to clean up. make sure you buy the special axle nut socket. no offense but less talking and more working will get you very far.
come on greg i really think you can do seal and brakes on that dana 70 it is not hard at all . you might spend at the most $150 , dana 80 it is no gonna be cheap at all and you still gonna have to do brakes maybe seals so what is the point of the swap btw i was your number 10 subscriber i really like the channel
My 01 with Dana 80 disc was nothing compared to how my drum 80 stopped in my 97. I vote leave the drum.
you guys need a magnet broom for lost parts lol
just throw on a new rear alxe, its going to be insane work on.
Use a magnet and sweep the grass til you find it
more vids of ryans 4th gen
Do the dana 80!
I'm allergic to bees I feel you
Get that truck a underbody wash
Dana 80 drum brakes are a pain
go with the new axle
roll pan maybe??
I will have a set of stage 2 dynamite diesel injector that I will donate to the cause when I swap them out they are only 2 months old. I will have no use for them.as soon as I get them they I will ship them out
11.5" AAM
Do a Dana 80
Dude. Change the axle and put one under the front!
just drive it
Get Dana 80. Still go with hood stack.
Scrap truck update?
Why do i always get Ford ads when watching your videos???
just do the 80 and get it over with.
A bee stung me in the face and my left eye was swollen shut for 3 days
Slam the 12V
Dont pull that dent just put a flat basketball behind the panell and air it up.
make the first generation the tow rig
this rear brakes literally only take an hour lol
Dana 80
can do pulling please do it
hopefully the lawn mower doesn't find that bolt and hit one of the nice trucks. like the tow pig I would call in a search party
do a diff swap
P pump it and put a cam in it
Don't cheap out
She needs a lift kit and a 4x4 swap
That axle is like that because of the diesel. Just work a little and learn how to maintain it. Don't be lazy.
dana 80, do it
Good afternoon friend!!
Have you thought about making the caption available in your videos?
I watch here from Brazil, and my English is not the best and with the subtitles in the videos would help a lot!
