I’m proud of your hard work Randy, hopefully it goes well as planned!
I prefer this over Lambo, Viper and GT-R rebuilds. Way more relatable for the average guy in the street.
Very true!
Never flush a high mileage transmission. Take that from an are certified mechanic with over 25 years experience.
this channel is like Regular Car Rebuilds, honestly it's the best title for it most rebuild channels are exotics and sports cars
it's always refreshing to see a normal car being worked on. Great content♥
good content straight talk and no BS!
Check trans numbers and pigtails. There is two different trans for same engine . Stx and reg. Torque converter also.
Randy, this is by far my favorite TH-cam channel! Keep up all the great work!
Sxt doesn't mean fully spec'd out 😀 It just means it has options other than a base model.
R/T would be full option car SXT is middle of the line
What about the Rallye?
sxt means it has options other than base. Could be power seats an be a sxt.
@@jaysmith5084 Limited, or GT. They didn't really make an R/T dart.
@@jaysmith5084 I would say it's nearer to the top for this model. The mid-tier trims have the 2.0 Tigershark, the SXT comes with the 2.4L MultiAir.
I'm glad you took my advice and are taking time off with your lady . Enjoy yourself , have fun and be safe .
That's awesome Randy. Can't wait to watch later tonight.
Looking forward to this build! Awesome!
I really enjoy your channel Randy. Thanks for all the great and interesting/fun content.
Thank you for your hard work randy I really enjoy watching your videos. Have a good time off I can't wait to see the motor swap on the dodge dart. Take care buddy
Man you just one of the nicest guys on TH-cam, love your Channel...
I like the fact that you are doing what a normal vey day person would possibly be able to do and afford and that they could do this for themselves. It’s not just about making a buck this is more like a learning experience even know you do make some money off all the people watching. I am glad we are back on tract kudos.
Really like your channel. Was wanting to tell you don't do a full flush on transmission. I did that and my trans went out. I would just drain fluid and put new filter in and fill it up. So no more flushing for me. Take care and look forward to seeing more videos. Troy.
Your right that is the smartest thing i heard anyone tell him today .some shops wont flush them if they have more than 150k on them because of that
Awesome vid Randy keep up the great work
Auto auction rebuilds engine and transmission swap. Going to be a amazing video. Cant wait.
Hey Randy! Awesome to see someone else rebuilding a Dart! On your flooded Dart, you may want to check out the TCM, it is located in the passenger side floor board. The Dart that I am rebuilding would not start when I got it. Not a flood damaged car, however, because it had been in a collision and the doors did not close all the way, and it had been sitting for over a year, moisture had gotten into the TCM connector and corroded some of the pins. This caused the car to throw a U0101 error because it could not see the TCM. If it cannot see the TCM, it will not start. Just some food for thought for ya given it is literally on the floor board. Good luck! Great videos!
Great job loving the videos!
I love your vid soo much man
"Hit the trailer a little bit, I'll have to get some paint over thay" yeah, as if the visible surface rust wasnt all around the ball head lol
Huge thumbs up Randy! Looking forward to the swap.
Glad that you got the donor car looking forward to seeing you change the engine and transmission and have a nice vacation
Hope you enjoy your vacation can’t wait to see you start the dart project
Great videos I do enjoy your honesty
My cousin drove a truck like that over 350,000 miles and only quit driving it when he hit the second deer that he had hit with it. Your new truck looks good. Great buy on the Dart donor car.
Another Hit video Randy !
Wow..u are man of the word..u do what u told..best of luck
can't wait for the next video!
Great content brother. Enjoy your videos 👍😎
Nooooooooo!!!! Don't flush the transmission, just change the fluid and filter, if it has a serviceable filter. Flushing is just asking for problems with something getting stuck in a valve body because you stir up any trash that is in the pan. Especially when it has over 200k on the odometer.
Most places call a transmission flush emptying the, trans, filling it back up, emptying it again, then filling it back up again. At least that's what valvoline did to mine. They had the flush machine, but all they did was suck,out the old. Put the plug back in. Fill it,up. Had me turn it on, cycle,through drive and reverse and what not. Then sucked,it empty again, and then filled it up again. Did it at 72k miles, I'm at 89k now with no issues
Randy would you be interested in selling a rim and hub cap cover off of the donor car?
Tim is a brave man for having his hands close while you're cutting it, as I can see you haven't mastered using that tool yet! But hey, I believe you will get there as Mike is a great teacher.😁
Keep up the great work thanks for the content
You should have 3 autoaution.io free reports for your subscribers like samcrac did
Ayeeeee I’m happy you uploaded 😂😂
Depending on the configuration of the flood car, you should try to transfer as many parts with porous materials as possible (i.e. seats, carpets, etc.)
check bearing and CV joints too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gas tank and other soft parts
Safe trip randy have a good time cant wait till next vid
Good Up!! Liked
Cool 😀 Have a safe fun trip
Once you do the engine swap, you can put the donor out back and part it out. When nothing is left, you can take the rest to a scrapyard for a couple hundred bucks.
I'm starting to belive your channel has best car content
Can't wait to see randy swap the motor and trans and get it running again.
Great you're taking time for what's important, enjoy your getaway trip ;)
Great show.
Hey keep doing what you’re doing no matter the size of the job it’s all great
Good luck with the project
Great vid randy and becareful on your road trip yall are coming down to my part in good ol Louisiana
It took you 15 seconds to cut through that lock. There is something wrong with that statement.
It's just meant to deter people not stop them that's why cutting the lock will make a lot a noise.
Locks are for honest people.. If thieves want your stuff they will get it.
Most crimes are crimes of opportunity. If someone really wants it, they'll take it.
@@Emmajeromeyouhoo and they did
hi randy great video n job on everything I've sent you email n great comments on ur video S I'm so proud of you n god bless hope to hear from you soon
Glad to see you have been sponsored
Yay donor car got to love the donor cars man you can always fix that little fine detail stuff that's a junk yards always nickel And dime you about when you go to check out
If you get attack by an alligator please film it for us 😁😁😁😂😂😂😂😂😂
Randy, Dude, you're really the best. absolutely clear what you say, that you do flip cases for everybody. But everyone also dreams of great cars that we&you can not afford, but are dreamable through Copart. Let's see it again with Merz S600 (1 million clicks) or maybe ML500.
Please. The fast flips are kind of non emotional. Dodge Dart.. well.
But Dude .. I am a fan and will keep on following you from Germany. I love what and how you do it. Bottom-up Cheers.
A miracle! You bought the right donor car! And you are starting a rebuild! (Maybe I should not have said that, as we never know if you give up on this project as well).
I know you have seen me on here hating I am liking the new content since the shop more builds and more actually work I would like to say thank you for steeping up.. I appriacted you trying and the struggles... also the trailer Is a game changer
@@HemiLyfestyle someone who doesnt own up isnt a man
Well done Randy your back on track fixing cars
Do not flush that transmission. Just do a pan drop and filter change. Flushing the fluid on a truck with that high mileage will likely cause issues.
Nice video again Randy
Good plan bossman. Enjoy your time off
That type of hitch lock is useless, thieves beat mine off with a sledge hammer and drove off with my two new seadoos..
Get fucked!!
kendall p karmas a bitch
@@wronky yeah Randy got his karma recently 🤣🤣
Have a good trip
those new tires looks small on the new truck or not? esp on the rear..
*NICE* trailer!
Awesome sauce
This is great time to get that dart running again
Should have thrown the 2.4 in it. Those are great cars I flooded mine in 4 ft of water water came in over the seats. Still sold at the copart in Indiana for 12k with 54k on the ODO.
Wow good luck with the engine swap hope it goes smoothly.
So cool! You should do a big turbo!
Have great journey
What size trailer did you get by the way? Im shopping for one now and am between a 18' or a 20'
I just noticed you are an Okie. I am from Yukon! Small World! Keep up the good work!
What happen to the free scanner whoo won
This will be a nice project series to watch, looking forward to it. It will be interesting to see what, if anything, besides the engine and transmission, has to be swapped to get the flood car back to running. I am also curious to see the final numbers once this is all said and done to see if it was worth it. I think you will be able to make your money back plus some profit just off of the flood car once it's restored. Then you should be able to make a few hundred on top of that off the parts car when you re-sell/scrap that after getting the needed parts off of it.
Never flush a high mileage transmission. Change the fluid and filter and drive on. Flushing it will wash the clutch material off the clutch packs.
Used the flood one instead for parts and rebuild the blue one,the flood one probally has rust inside under the floor carpet,not sure but it be a interesting rebuild one,i rather have a basic model than having a flood car and worrying about mold growing in the carpet,just my opinion but is your call,unless you transfer the carpet,seats from the blue one?.
Randy, u need to buy few more darts with damage or vandalised use up the remaining parts of the blue one and save put others back on the road.👍
Randy, it would be great to keep that donor car to fix up a 2nd dart, find something with rear end damage. You'll have everything there
If is the frame rails are not busted it is worth to repair. You can get really cheap parts on junkyards, I repaired one of those about a year ago and spent about 1300 bucks in parts with the airbags
That’s lite work on that blue one.....
Swapping drivetrains is the way to go. Disconnect everything do not cut and slash. You don't know yet what you have to bring over from the donner car to make it work in the car you're fixing.
Take the parts out that you need then run it back thru the auction missing those parts or put the bad parts from the other one in it. As it will still have good parts for someone else and recope some of your cost.
And when you part out and sell the rest of the blue Dart, that engine and trans will be pretty much free. Parts cars really are the way to go if you have the space for them and the time to strip them out and get the parts up for sale...
Are you going to just drop the entire subframe unit (motor, trans, suspension) and swap it all ?? It maybe easier then trying to pull the motor and trans as a separate unit. Plus with the other one being a flood it may save you some work in the long run.
you should get a shed for all the parts are good for that car so next time you work on another car like that do you have parts for it and the transfer case in the wheel and and the seats and the carpet
Have a safe trip
I have a question if its a clean title and run and drive in Oklahoma copart and can i just put a temporary plate and drive it ?
Would you happen to still have the donor car? Got an sxt for too much and trying to save some money on the parts I need
Great new truck, just was wondering why not get a Copart truck that’s nice and fix it up to par and make some vids out of it, just was curious. Can’t wait for the power train swap though👍🏼
How much do you want for that f150
We owned a SXT. Good cars with the 2.0 tigershark engine. Decent fuel mileage. But yah they don't want you working on it. Basically the car that replaced the Dodge Neon. Comes loaded with features that the chargers even have plus looks like a mini charger. Our was Dodge Orange. Sadly it was traded for a VW TDI.
Mark Wolf there trans suck
Nice find. You're giving the haters some meat and potatoes now. Good luck!
Also; I'd clean up the engine bay as well as the engine / trans out of the donor car.
So that would be a good place to get those nice dart 17" alloys!!! You wouldn't happen to have any laying around?
That's what I said do with the Sebring use it as a donor car rather than wholesale it... you got a good powertrain and interior, backend use it
Wouldn't you be able to use the back bumper cover from the donor car?
You should put some tow mirrors on the Chevy
From the stuff in it and the mucky condition I would say that blue Dart was someone's company work vehicle. It might be bad news from the cleanliness side, but company vehicles are usually maintained right up to scratch as the companies really don't want vehicles having down-time...
Save the key remote from the donor and you should be able to use it on the one that you're rebuilding even if it has two keys already you can always add a third one.the only thing is is the plane key to get in door an emergency would have to get a new blank and have it cut other than that remote and all that stuff would work. save any electronics you need from the donor car for the one that you're rebuilding to the one that was in a flood and the one that was an accident should have some good donor parts for the electrical system for the flood car you are rebuilding.
GOOD LAD ENJOY YOUR BREAK
