OMG, that Dodge truck brings back many memories. Back in the early 1970's, I worked for a moving company and they had at that time an old Dodge tractor. Single axle, gas job, it had both air brakes and vacuum brake system. Sounds weird, but wait, there is more. It was used to pull an old "round nose" 25 or 30 foot trailer, single axle, that was made in the 1940's, yes really! That trailer was so old, it "dog tracked" down the road, and there was no shop or mechanic willing to convert it from vacuum brakes to air. Good thing cuz sometime in the late 1970's someone jack knifed that trailer and nobody was wiling to take it on the road. That Dodge tractor was very under powered, but it always stared up and ran. Ah, the memories, glad to still be alive to tell this tale! Love your channel Rich!
Nearly any project becomes infinitely more enjoyable when you got a good buddy to work with. Ole Handy Andy aint afraid to get his hands dirty AND brings some more levity to keep things fun. Thanks for sharing your knowledge, experiences, and adventures; gentlemen! Yall take care
Listening to rich talk through his thoughts is what i imagine it was like watching Isaac Newton go through his theorms. So much knowledge in that melon
Hey Rich! for the issue of the steer tires sticking out past the fenders, what about slicing the outboard 2" of the whole fender off, and then adding in a strip of filler sheet metal? that thing has pretty basic body lines, you could easily give it a 4" or 6" widebody kit that way and it would look stock.
@@nathanmersch5163 yeah i guess i figured they'd paint it. The roof needs a lot of metalwork already, and in my eyes, its a little to far gone for the patina look.
I still can't help but think how cool those old spoked wheels would look on the Fargo. But I also get the idea of doing something more rugged and modern. It's gonna be a sweet truck regardless. Cheers!
gotta love the music they use in these videos. made me laugh the second the music came on when hes pulling the bus back. as a fellow canadian, and torontonian i approve!
It looks like you could machine a bushing to adapt the smaller threads of your old steering arm to the larger bore of the new steering knuckle. Doesn't look like there's a taper to it, but even then that's still doable.
To get more "punch" and force, hold a larger sledgehammer or something as an anvil pice on the opposite side when you knock/hammer on things, like when punching to shock the tie rod end cones loose 😊
I love Rich, but Andy is a great addition to this team. If you’re reading Andy I think you guys should’ve done a Craigslist rebuild on that front axle there, eh? A little DE1635 wouldn’t have hurt. 😂 I’m just kidding with you guys though. Have a great winter storm! See you guys on the next one!
Love your channel - keep up the good work. So next time - pull your spoked hubs of the axle - pull the bearings & races out - then contact your local trucking supply & have them get you new hubs for hub pilot or stud pilot - your choice that fit your bearings We did a similar thing - had 5 spoke rims on a 1989 IH - bought a 1994 IH due to not 5 spoke (budd rims) swapped front axle - we ended up with hub pilot rims - so that didn;t work with budd (stud pilot) system & the king pin was wiped on that axle also - so we had another 1994 IH with 5 spoke rims with good king pins - so swapped that axle to truck but now were back to 5 spoke. Pulled the bearing/races out & then contacted local truck parts & got correct hub pilot hubs to get correct lugs/bolts to work with hub pilot rims. For rears we could not get new hubs - so I got 20 new hub pilot studs/nuts & drilled the hubs to match. What a chore
This video was great! Ha, Im not as talented as you guys, or as well equipped, so my stuff takes longer anyways, but everything I touch takes 5x longer than what I planned it seems. Good to see its not just me. haha.
I'm not sure if the hole for that drag link is straight or tapered, but Future Rich could just machine up a steel bush to an interference fit, freeze it and press the bush in, then your drag link fits
Andy was our first sponsor, back when we had 5000 subs. The Audi, along with multiple other cars from his yards were always free. Every single LS that we installed, came from his yard. Check out the first Audi videos, along with the project car challenge, and you will see him there. Just because he wasn't always in front of the camera, doesn't mean he wasn't involved.
@@DEBOSSGARAGE thank you for clearing it up, i was not having a go, just seemed a little strange to me, with him keep saying we all the time, i enjoy watching him he is a funny guy, glad he is a part of the team.
Besides the International DT466, an 8.3 Cummins would also be an excellent engine for that truck. I heard that Kevin has a previously enjoyed 8.3 in an old IH combine. The paint of the engine even matches the Fargo....
Im glad you didnt leave the daytons on the fargo build! I still dont understand how that truck even had daytons especially if that international was actually mid 90s because it would have had factory bud wheels if it was mid 90s so that makes me think that the newer cab was put on that frame.
😎💯✌Back in the 80s the guy across the street chopped an shorten a international signal cab truck and put a dually bed on it an drove it around like a regular truck. I was a little guy an saw this an said thats not a bad idea man it should last longer than gas truck...
make the cab wider to match the bus wheel base, 300 bucks of sheet metal "free if using recycled sheet" just weld it, has holes in the roof so it already needs some work.
just a thought; steer tires should never have a load rating greater than the steer axle. I would rather the tires showed the stress of overloading than have the axle give up as I am going down the road
Were it my pass, i would've emptied the thing out completely, pulled the whole cab off and dumped that on the trailer and then put all the junk back in. You never know when you need a frame, even if it's rusty or crusty. In the first place, that steel is better than most of the junk at the steel rack unless you start adding 0s. Extra work, but frames are always worth having in the yard, cut up, neatly stacked etc. At my brother's farm, neither of us has mourned the lost space. They always come in handy for rigs or repairs.
Iam sorry but the hydra boost is such a great invention and I just love it and for guys building hot rods it’s great because it gives you extra room under you hood no huge vacuum booster for brakes but guys are still not useing this like they should be .
With your EV projects...A bus conversion to hybrid diesel-Electric. or you could convert the bus into an RV also. You could power everything in this RV all night long from the batteries. Heat, Air Conditioning, TV, microwave, electric stove/oven, refrigerator, lights, computers, stereo, game consoles, and anything else you can thing of. No propane needed. Can you manually charge the batteries? Turn on the charging about 30 minutes before you arrive so that when you get to the camp, site the batteries are fully charged? I don't know how loud the generator is. If you arrive with the batteries low, will it disturb you or others around you when it turns on? Does the generator have a muffler? Because it's a hybrid, with larger batteries than any other RV. You only need to stop at an official RV sight when you need to pump out. No shore power needed.
We need a everything wrong with an om603 video. I keep watching for one on marketplace, I want to swap one into a chevy colorado or something like that.

@@ShotgunAU :) thanks! It's fun just being Andy and hanging around with some great people, helping to make cool things!
@DEBOSSGARAGE Nice to meet you
Having Andy around is such a great addition to the channel.
Couldn’t agree more, great add to the channel. And he’s funny as hell
Thanks!! Looking forward to the 2024 shenanigans
Real question is, how long can they afford them. Viewership is dropping off someone steeply.
I friggin love how involved Andy has been with DBG lately. Dude you’re an absolute gem addition to the team mate. Love you all!!!
Thanks bro! I love being more involved. It is a ton of fun.
Perfect timing for a DG Video. Stuck in an airport with perfect weather waiting for a delayed flight headed into the polar vortex. I’m only here for the music.
Make sure to get a seat near the emergency exit. Bring an adjustable just in case.

Love having Andy on board, he is so positive and helpful! Let’s see some more of Vince as well, that guy is awesome!
I recognize that as a Thomas built bus. I toured their plant in London Ontario many years ago while flying for the owners John and Pat Thomas
Andy is the Boss ...
This truck be pretty cool ...
"This should be easy, what could go wrong?"

Semi-trailer doesn't look as new as it was. Glad to see you build them to use them. Keep up the great work.
👏 😂 "they said it would be easy". great choice for wheels and tyres👍

The thought makes sense, but then you lose the natural patina of the truck. Not sure if he’s painting it or not.. might have missed it if he said it..
@@nathanmersch5163 yeah i guess i figured they'd paint it.
The roof needs a lot of metalwork already, and in my eyes, its a little to far gone for the patina look.
Cardboard is one of my favorite things I keep 👍👍

Dayton's are way more rugged than Budd or pilot hub new cranes if they are heavy enough to need em still use Dayton's cause they will hold more weight
Boiled Linseed Oil for the Fargo! Will preserve that beautiful rusty patina but also seal and prevent further deterioration.
gotta love the music they use in these videos. made me laugh the second the music came on when hes pulling the bus back. as a fellow canadian, and torontonian i approve!
The two of you will get the steering figured out. Looking forward to how this one turns out.
It looks like you could machine a bushing to adapt the smaller threads of your old steering arm to the larger bore of the new steering knuckle. Doesn't look like there's a taper to it, but even then that's still doable.
BTW Riche you've made a smart move adding Andy to the Team! He's adapting well being behind the camera. Cheers.
Superfast Matt started the whole 'Future Me' thing. Nice to see it on other channels also. Keep up the great work!

That all looked like a real pain. But youre very good at figuring things out. I know youll get it done.
Every tool has a hammer side.....
I really love the Fargo fold out fenders!
Here's my KB warrior input: put a Rockwell axle on the front of a chopped bus with a fiberglass front hood with Fargo design fenders.
Cleaning a yard can cause you no end of headaches. Cheers
Body man that takes his job title literally!
Let’s see,here in Kansas City it’s -3 degrees and there is Rich in CANADA in shirtsleeves.
That bus was mint👌and you could have sold it to some guy out in Alberta! 😆😆
I really wish u would post more u got great content
Good to see you are leaving a trail for the accident investigation unit 😎👌
Great effort, thanks

Truck and trailer coming in handy!
One thing this show has taught me is "keep things together" as in if you're going to swap something, bring more not less.
Coming along Nicely Rich looks good Happy new year
These guys can tweek so hard on stuff sober. Can you imagine them on some old biker crank?
lol. that is awesome....lol.
"Pro Bono" is some minty Canadian lingo for "FREE" Yet another fresh new Andy-ism trying to break the interwebs ! ! !
Very interesting 🤔 content guys 😎. Thanks 👍 for sharing 😊.
Oh Lighting hey , 😎
I'm not sure if the hole for that drag link is straight or tapered, but Future Rich could just machine up a steel bush to an interference fit, freeze it and press the bush in, then your drag link fits
I really hope you and Edison get your timing to line up. They've got some crazy momentum right now. Would love to see some hybrid truck videos soon.
Let's go!
That kenworth is a work of art bud
Got to love the way andy has latched onto a successful youtube channel and keeps saying we, used to rarely see him, now its all we this and we that.

Just move it over!!! It's easy!!!
Besides the International DT466, an 8.3 Cummins would also be an excellent engine for that truck. I heard that Kevin has a previously enjoyed 8.3 in an old IH combine. The paint of the engine even matches the Fargo....
Another great video guys 👍👍
That's why we never throw anything away
Very simple……😂😂😂😂😂
Those famous last words…..
I don't know how many times I should've just left something alone because it still worked. We learn the hard way, usually.
Im glad you didnt leave the daytons on the fargo build! I still dont understand how that truck even had daytons especially if that international was actually mid 90s because it would have had factory bud wheels if it was mid 90s so that makes me think that the newer cab was put on that frame.
There's a old saying that goes " If you want to make the almighty laugh , tell him your plans" Rich seems to take it all in stride 😀
Great teaching film on how "all we gotta do is swap this and that" almost never works! 😂
I only have one question, what happened to Black Jack and his MG Midget?
He moved away. I see him once in a while
I use to drive a cab over Freight shaker big cam 400 with 13 speed and it was first motor that had low oil pressure but high volume and
I caught myself pushing with Andy
Nice calendar
You need different rims those rims are for air lifts on a trailer you need the steer rims that have the reset to pull it in
😎💯✌Back in the 80s the guy across the street chopped an shorten a international signal cab truck and put a dually bed on it an drove it around like a regular truck. I was a little guy an saw this an said thats not a bad idea man it should last longer than gas truck...

You should do a episode on Zack’s truck it was the coolest thing that sat in our highshool parking lot from time to time
O Canada!
MAKE IS A TRAVELLING HOME!!!
Everyone: That's not going to work, at all.
Rich with a torch, gas powered death wheel and a tape measure: Observe...
Didn’t someone say to never get rid of the part vehicles until the new one is running and driving? lol looks great
Funny, I just finished the last fargo vid yesterday!
just a thought; steer tires should never have a load rating greater than the steer axle. I would rather the tires showed the stress of overloading than have the axle give up as I am going down the road
Rich all your hard work is very much appreciated my friend!!!!

for the steering you could get a piece of tube that makes that steering knuckle a tight fit & weld it in
"It's very simple" Famous last words
When do we get an updated video of the P-Pump Twin Turbo Cummins Silverado?
Yeee
Yes love super singles they will look sikk af

Fk yeah. I've been looking for rear axle options with hydraulic and not air brakes that will fit a super single for my Winnebago Indian project.
12:04 And on that day not a drop of WD-40 was used 😂
disculpe no avlo inglés pero todos sus videos me fascinan mucho sobre todo la grúa Fargo😢 me acuerdo de mi papá
I got steering boxes off 95 and 01 IH 3800 school buses, full sized buses.
I'd take $150 for the box and whatever it costs to ship from TN to you.
Finally, someone who isn’t afraid to say that the “old patina” isn’t for them…that trend needs to go
100% Patina used to mean slight cracking and lil ware spots in paint now it means "rusty pile of crap give me 2x book value for it"
@@workingcountry1776 couldn’t agree more…
Mr Rich what was that white electric tool you used on a rusty bolt? It has circles.
You guys just have way to much fun. How old were you when you got into this ?
hay guys , i love your videos.
rich i got a box out of international school bus i think it was 4200 vt365 ,if you have use for it you co have it.
This is gonna be good :)
👍
Really should just get that international axle and apparently steering box sitting in Andy’s yard
Can u flip the rims so they fit in a bit
Just use a hydraulic steering setup from a tractor or a combine. As long as the engine is running you’ll be just fine.
Hydrostatic steering isnt legal for on road vehicles. Needs to be power assisted steering, incase of engine failure etc.
