All the best have a great rest of the weekend . Mark and Emily at Rooster Recovery
Cheers guys and best of luck even I’m partial to a Renault master !! We’ve had at least one recovery truck and might have a few mascotts about the place 👍
@@6DDIESELSDorset I do like a good Renault not the prettiest of trucks especially the shape we have but there so ugly there nice and to be honest just get the job done 👍
Great work Al, too old to go-cart but never too old to truck, was it Smith and Jones that created I love trucking and I love to truck, big 10/4 rubber duck.
Great video as always, you deserve to have much more than the 15k subscribers that you have. I’ve been binge watching all your video library recently, instead of spending evenings with the wife😂. So nice to see someone who honestly knows what he’s doing, rather than the usual insta-face-tube tripe that tries to over dramatise for views. Waiting/hoping for an Iveco daily video🤞👍
I do enjoy watching your channel, as a trainee bus mechanic, you soon realise, who know there stuff, I've got a big love for french diesel xud any do of the week ,now I know you have been selling stuff off, if you want to sell the 309 diesel I would be interested if you do, thanks kieren
Been watching your videos for sometime now, you will definitely have to put up a link for the merch when it’s up and running, I noticed earlier in the video a “fella” was wearing a Vice Grip Garage cap 👍.
I’ve put a 2.9 602 in my discovery, I used a charger cooler off an sl500 amg. It’s sat just nice over the rocker cover between the turbo and inlet manifold, works very well
Been watching and subscribed for a few months as well good to see a proper mechanic working. But desperately need to know what that backing track is please its relaxes our baby and my wife 😂
Your creativity is impressive and you constantly demonstrate ingenuity. I'd call your big spending an intelligent investment - much better than buying a new truck!
Great video buddy as always. Quick question what’s your thoughts on the VW caddy that the Gas boards seem to be using at the moment. I need a second car and fancy a diesel one of these. Many thanks in advance.
Is the current intercooler not up to the job or is it just knackered? I have a spare unused sorinter intercooler in my garage (bought to go on a VW T4 1.9 tdi conversion but never fitted).
Your getting old AL. As for selling stuff, your supposed to keep them things quiet otherwise merchandising Manager will want her percentage. As always great to watch.
Turbo Al there’s a 53 reg yellow lt recovery on eBay with over 600k kilometers on it. For £2750+ the vodka and tonic D’ya think she’s run in now and would you use a 600k LT recovery ? Cheers Boss Man
Hi wonder if I could get some advice I have a lt35 2006 and when I get dash lights on ready to start I flick the key everything trips out I’ve replaced starter and still same I then have to disconnect battery to basically reset system cheers
No got a 4 cylinder sorry but for a 4 ton box it's not to bad on fuel could do with being a bit sharper would the later 7 speed box fit and be better then the 5 in mine?
Top job Al, that LT is gonna be a beast! I got a good laugh when you pulled out the truck exhaust pipe 😂
I enjoy every time al puts a video on he is a good old school and knows alot and a right character keep it up mate
Finally xx my lt46 is about half million miles and it's my baby .2.8 135

Cheers I’ll have a look into that , currently we are thinking large alloy mounted at an angle under the front 👍
Do a t-shirt saying its blown up 😂😂
You gotta put a flapper on top of the Stack Al 💪
That’s not a bad idea !!! 👍
Great to see you putting all that money to good use - buying some necessary goodies a man must have. 😎😎
Been watching and subscribed for a few months as well good to see a proper mechanic working. But desperately need to know what that backing track is please its relaxes our baby and my wife 😂

@@6DDIESELSDorset thank you so much
Awesome video Al as always mate. Ive got a recovery truck but it’s not iveco or Mercedes it’s a Ford 😊. But I’m thinking of changing to a iveco
Nice one 😂😂😂.
I drive a tug I'm 45 that's like go carting all night😂😂😅
Your creativity is impressive and you constantly demonstrate ingenuity. I'd call your big spending an intelligent investment - much better than buying a new truck!
Tried that a few years back 14 pate sprinter and not even I could keep the thing from shatting itself all the time 👍
enjoyed that
Ace 👍
That will be awesome when its finished, torque monster 😂
When is the video of the strip light fix coming 😂😂. Another great video 👍
When the dam things turn up from China and a man get his cherry picker out to get to them! Lol
Bloody hell Al that truck is gonna pull like a flaming rat! Its gonna be a monster mate...😮
I wish that silver Peugeot van was a write off cos I'd ask to buy those number plates off you 😳... That's the best ones I've seen with my name in 👍🏼
It’s actually off the van and the fella who owns it has it advertised for sale 👍
Do you have any links to where they are for sell tia👍🏼
She's gonna be burning some coal.
That's going to pull like a train once all the fettling is done.
The problem with GoCarting is that you’re too old to know better 😂🤣😂 I suffer from that too from time to time.
Great project by the way. 👍
p38 diesel range rover intercooler is pretty thin and long
WOULD not not like to have night out in that sleeper POD pigeon hut LOL.
Ah it’s fine ! Does the job I’ve use it loads
Great video buddy as always. Quick question what’s your thoughts on the VW caddy that the Gas boards seem to be using at the moment. I need a second car and fancy a diesel one of these. Many thanks in advance.
They seem to be good fella , I’ve got a few customers with ex gas and water ones and we’ve had hardly any trouble with them 👍
Haha yes get that exhaust on al
Not bad al
😂🏎 new to your Channel 👍🏻
Welcome aboard fella 👍
Just a pitty you didn't have a pair of exhaust stacks up the back of the cab blowin reek oot top job mucker
A love older merc stuff they sort of reliable 😂
When do we get to see part 2 on this one Al??
Just haven’t got back to it fella , I desperately need to dig it out and finished the old goat 👍
@@6DDIESELSDorset I know how it is, more projects than one can shake a proverbial rejuvanator handle at, same story here!
Could you make videos alittle longer Sunday mornings ideal viewing time
Can I rent and live in the sleeper cab please Ps it sounds like a monster
Where you go go karting ? I went today karting at haynes and i'm up your way (ish)
By Hurn airport 👍
Nice work Al. What the mileage of the chassis
400,000 plus Kms !! Hardly run in 👍

Radiator is 4 inches further forward so no space for the original 👍

As always great to watch.
Ah see what I’ve done is just bought a load more top quality stuff…. 😂

Yes she’ll stick that ! And it’s Kms makes you fella much better if you just say it in mile 👍
Al how much would it cost me to make a vw 1y engine silly blow up fast 😂😂
Hello which is better reliability wise and Mercedes sprinter older model or an vw lt , thanks sir.
I’d say the older sprinter really 👍
you remind me of a younger me,are you familiar with ducato 2.8 jtd
i have ducato 2.8 jtd no fuel at the rail have you any ideas
Do you sell parts? Or just keep them for spares?
Half and half 👍
@6DDIESELSDorset lt46 2.8 2005 vacuum pump? Or where I could get one please?
Hi wonder if I could get some advice I have a lt35 2006 and when I get dash lights on ready to start I flick the key everything trips out I’ve replaced starter and still same I then have to disconnect battery to basically reset system cheers
They are renowned for earth problems, I’d start with the gearbox to body earth. Other possibility is it’s got some sort of aftermarket alarm ?
@@6DDIESELSDorset yeah it’s got after market alarm but that’s been on 3 year thanks for advice much appreciated
Hi thanks for advising my on ignition fault was a earth cable cause the system to trip out
Fantastic fella glad it’s fixed 👍
