    The truck is really looking sharp. You’re doing a good job putting it together.

    The truck is beginning to look really great, I am looking forward to seeing the stacks all finished and the fenders on it, which I believe will make it look really sharp .
    I will see you all later on the next video, so take care and stay safe out there working .

    Looking good, apparently the haters have never mounted a headache rack and are hating on the front U bolts and have no clue how tight it is. Keep up the great work!! If they would start looking at trucks with them on it could see the front bolts are up so you can torque them every few months! Aluminum flexes in the cold or heat so you have to check the torque every once in a while!

    The truck looks awesome, Bruce. And if I'm honest, I prefer its look to the tratter taxi (I'm odd like that).
    Keep at it man. Hope your family is well 👍

  • @marksshed1100

    it needs a big Aussie style bullbar, with two big spot lights on it, instead of some weak chrome nudge bar on the front

    It’s super easy to figure out which ones red and which ones blue. Pushing your trailer valve inside the tractor. And whatever line expels air, is the red line.

    @rongray1785 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you twist the end of the tie wrap off rather than cut you will not have a sharp edge. They can be pretty sharp after cutting. Not really an issue until you are in a tight area, but still a good idea for all areas. The truck is looking great can't wait until it's completed.

  • @fredschell3972

    I would check with Brunners in Joplin, Mo for the visor. They do custom fab work. I believe 4 States could also have one made for you.

    @suzrtimm5930 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Bruce I’m new to your channel and I was wondering if you could route the hoses to the headache rack, I think that’s what it’s called. It’s the stainless metal thing on the back of your truck. I’ve seen this happen on other channels. You route the hoses inside the frame.

    I love watching all your videos keep them up when you get time it would be awesome if you can make a video and explain to people I know you've done this once before but I've been watching Randy's over Auto auction rebuilds and he keeps saying and everybody keeps commenting on his channel that you have to have a CDL to drive a semi but I know for your own personal use if you're not using that commercially you do not have to have CDLs to drive a semi you can drive it everyday if you want to

    hey its ok to have some slack on the deck behind the spring part. just the lines the swing while driving can not touch the diamond plate. you will be perfect, and if you need to put a new u bolt higher leave the u bolt already in and now you can change the height of the line just by moving the clip.

    You should check on ride hight specs for the truck. You need to measure from the center of axle to the ground.

    Just a question, the old hydraulic tank was huge. The new one isn’t. Will there be enough oil to run the tamp trailer?

    • @countryboy99656
      @countryboy99656 ปีที่แล้ว

      The trailers system should remain full with hydraulic fluid when you disconnect the truck, the tank on the truck is just a reservoir. In theory, you shouldn’t need much of a tank at all. You just need a little fluid just to pick up slack. The tank on his truck is enough to handle that trailer I would think, but with a smaller tank, the less extra fluid you have if you have leaks.

  • @tinytim9507
    @tinytim9507 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You want to keep your airlines long so when you turn sharp it won’t rip them off. Just move them to the top of the headache rack and it’ll be fine.
