Shawn is awesome. I hope he will be with the show for a LONG time! Smart, easy going, a 'doer' and just the calm cool addition the place needs.
Needs a BEARD again.
🥸
Also I hope Shawn and Hunter never leave. If I was Paul I would pay them good to stay
I’m sure he pays them really good. You never know when or if they will get a better offer. I bet they are not making “retirement” money tho… I’m just glad they put out good content and that they are local and welcome fans. Good work!
@@magicyeti5630 Just gaze at your boyfriend when you want to see a beard.
@@glennmuir5617 why I got pictures of You now… 💋
It’s the intermediate shaft in the 205. That has tapered roller bearings that need to be preloaded. There are shimmed. That that shaft is sliding back and forth.
I hope Paul reads this. I figured he didn't put something back together right. It didn't jump out of high range before so it was something he didn't do right 👍🏽
Was gonna say it's a gear or shaft being forced into the case on decel
I did the same thing on my 205 in my 72 Jimmy many years ago. After pulling the T-case out and torn apart, an old timer showed me what I did incorrectly. After setting it up correctly it ran about as quiet as a gear driven case could run. Wish I would have had a lift like I do now. 💪🏼 Remember to breath through your nose Paul! 👍🏼
@@JimZabaddo you remember when GM changed from the Rockwell to the New Process transfer case?
@@haroldphipps3457I believe it was part way through 1969. Early ones from '69 have the Rockwell, and later ones could have the NP205 or a Dana 20
One thing about those kind of noises...the longer you wait, the easier they are to find.
the flip side to that is the more likely it is for the problem to spread and get more expensive
Best comment ever
Drive it like you stole it ....problem will show it self lol😅
@@Deadly_DoRightyes, but that makes for better content
Best way to find exhaust leaks is with a shop vac set up to blow stuck in the tailpipe, no rumble from the engine and the exhaust stays cool 👌🏼
Dang , that’s a good idea.
Nice 👍🏻. Didn’t know that
Paul is a good boss and supervisor, Shawn is a great addition to the Fab Rats channel and Family, and Hunter is a great cameraman, helper as needed and doer when stuff needs doing.
I'm growing long in the tooth. Shop time was always my favorite time in my younger days. Our iron was a different breed - mainly what we needed to raise corn and beans in Iowa. None-the-less, there were three of us who spent many hours cussin', discussin' and doing what we had to do to keep putting power down where needed. Watching the Fab Rat crew takes me back there. Thank you for the good times.
My Neighbor Roger Rupe is probably the best mechanic I've ever known and his answer to noises is " Your Listening Too Hard"! LOL!
Yep, I own a 1958 landrover and ear defenders are the way to a happy journey. Also carry plenty of spare parts so you can make it home :D
It's been 40+ years since I've done one of those transfercases but I do remember stacking the bearings, fun stuff. A solution for switching over your doors could be replace the hinge pins with bolts of the same diameter. Time to switch doors, pull the bolts the hinge splits in two, the outer stays on the door and the inner stays on the cab. All you need is another set of outer hinge sections and I'm sure that you have access to those.
My Father used to tell me about the same. His attitude was always "Drive it until the problem becomes more obvious..." Lol
I just raise the volume of my radio.
Nah something ain't right, that's irresponsible to just dismiss it.... popping out of gear ect and just trashing it further on camera? That's low grade workmanship all around.
All the fancy things built in that garage the Old Wood Truck just sits outside waiting for the call
What's really cool is Hunter has been accepted as one of the crew of FabRats. You guys make working an wrenchin funny an entertaining. Roll on guys
We ain't missing anything w him
I thought he already was.
He is part of the FAMILY not just crew.
For The Longest Time I Always Thought Paul Was Hunters Dad!
Well said 👍
If you delete the open needle bearings and bore out that bearing surface And put a caged needle bearing in there.All your problems will go away.Something I used to do when I built 205 years ago.
Accidents dont count unless you have to go to the doctor. lol
Last place I worked, it only counted if there was time lost.
Bonuses counted on less injuries, so some really stupid people came to work hurt.
I love the attitude "we'll use it until she's broken, and then we'll fix it." When you have the confidence you have, it's a solid plan.
Well it's already broken.. so what is there to lose
its junk
Ya cant just JUNK IT
Preventative maintenance is the better route. "Run to failure " is what they do at my job and those failures can lead to a lot bigger problems.
It's great for content, It's bad for anything you're relying on. Because when things break, the down time is longer and you don't know the collateral that can happen.
Derek would say "Let's pretend we didn't hear that." and would drive on until it explodes... 😁🤟
Good ol vice grip wisdom
That wisdom works fine for Derek, but, this is a tow truck that is doing rescues, not a vehicle being rescued.
Yeah just turn the radio volume up higher.If no radio install one and then do the previous.
That ole wood truck sounded great going up that hill it deserves some love
Nothing like a supercharged, 4 wheel drive, rock crawling tow truck . Makes me smile !
I just have to say, I love that you kept the silver/blue doors as the full doors. Makes me think of grandpa Sherm every time I see it with them on.
The zip tie on the wood truck's windshield wiper is classic Fab Rats!
Paul is definitely a supervisor material. He knows exactly who to blame.
When you play hard shit happens🤣
When you solve the problems that’s when you learn
Getting there is half the fun🤣
God bless you Paul crew and Family I always looking forward to the next episode of FABRATS 💯✊🇺🇸😝
Thank you for showing your "fails" as much as your success's. It is nice to see that even the folks that know what they are doing, don't always figure it out the first time. Keep up the good work.
Paul, as often as you have to visit the bone yard you must keep a standing order at the salvage yard to restock your inventory!
I never really comment on anything. But I think you're a good dad man
Iam not sure who is in charge of language censorship, but from all of us, give that person a raise…. My video would have sounded way different than Paul’s…
Even though you can buy a bearing kit these days, I love that the boneyard is still the first option for parts. Ratting parts is a great skill. You are teaching a new generation how to just make it work. Also, the extra ponies making new problems is a huge lesson. I love watching, learning, and laughing with you guys. Comments are primarily for the algorithm but heartfelt. ❤❤❤ I'm glad you all see it as "stuff" others see it as fecies, they are wrong.
I would love to go out to his bone yard and see what I could pull out ! An build just for fun and see if it would run ! I wonder what he's going to do with the frame from his '59 Willys as I have a '57 !
Feces?
@@patarmstrong3582 crap...😊
@@patarmstrong3582shit.
Poop.
Excrement.
Doo doo.
"if you go down just hang on to it, I'll just pull you back up" LOL
i watch these videos and it reminds me why it's worth spending the extra time to do things properly.
ditto, or take it to a competent mechanic
That sucks! You have a better attitude than me. After all that work I would be cursing and throwing things! LOL!
I still love that old wood truck i hope you guys never get rid of her!
This was the product of the Fuel Tanker. Love the content!
I was thinking the very same thing!
Me too. Was expecting some spliced footage of the truck jumping while hooked to it
Thought the truck had summer doors on it already for the fuel tanker recovery?
Nope. Went back and watched. Winter doors were on for the tanker pull.
It's the results of having high horsepower on a doubler... They weren't really designed for that. A doubler is for like a Toyota Tacoma with a smaller engine.. and it gives you a lower gear reduction to make it easier for the smaller HP engine to work. But when you put high HP on one end.. it multiplies the torque by too much, and things will often break
That old wood truck is one Of a kind. That old truck needs some love it has saved you on more than one occasion. It deserves it God bless.keep the good videos coming
What ever you do,do not work on the wood truck.
Who needs the tow truck when the wood truck is a beast too
Woodrow in the trailer next door comes over and watches TH-cam on my plasma. FabRats is our favorite.
Nice to see the old wood truck pulls through again.
Finally a Commander I have a completely stock Commander and I love it. Sean and Hunter are absolute naturals in front of the camera. Great video as usual.
Wood truck to the rescue.Gotta love it
Single cab and a gun rack in the back window, 😆 YEAH!!
Great channel. The only change that I would suggest is that you give windshield cleaning a higher priority. You are in a really beautiful part of the country and it would be nice to have a clearer look at it.
Bearing only two layers deep is easy compared to a Muncie 4 speed. They are smaller and stack 4 layers deep around the main shaft. It will cause you to learn to cuss.
On the other hand, the Munchies are badly geared, no overdrive, and the musclecar versions only had an inadequate 27 spline output shaft, so better to swap to something else
Shawn’s so PHAT!!!! Awesome work guys. Even if it made it worse. We learned things. Pick up and carry on
It was game over for that transfer case as soon as you painted it! 😅
As long as you’ve got your green hammer handy, I’ve got 100% confidence in you Paul!
I like that hammer way more than a claw hammer.
I learned early on if your truck is making a strange sound just reach over and turn up the stereo louder. When the noise gets so loud you can still hear it over the stereo then it's time to finally get a new stereo.
Bigger speakers should come first...😅
Those antennas that run up the glass bring back so many memories!
Paul has got a great attitude, just rolls with it and keeps calm
Yes on camera,you should see him off of camera,I bet he had a few choice words and threw a few things....
@@mypronouniswtf5559 well now I feel better about myself. I do that too LOL
Man Its Always A blessed Day When I Start My Morning Off With Watching A Fab Rats Vidja! Love The Content Paul Keep It Up Man💪.
The Wood truck for the win !
Wood truck for the win!
Drill out your hinge pins and turn down shoulder bolts and youll be able to swap out the doors like a jeep
Doesn't matter what kind of wheeling you do, stuff breaks.
😂😂 “How do we get this apart?” - “Hammer!” 🤣🤣
Love the wood truck. It's the real deal
Great diagnosis Boss Rat. I suppose it get a heck of a lot of punishment with the shock it must receive when snatching things like the loaded tanker. I agree the oil would have caused the faults you have but with no oil and the shock as well it would have gone sooner or later. You’re doing the right thing by looking at a strong box but just be careful about what is the next weakest part.
I really like the zip tie on the windshield wiper there that's a fine top-notch fix it. You should not have painted it that's where you screwed up, and you forgot a zip tie at least you weren't throwing things or screaming up a storm at least not on camera
The zip tie on the wiper is epic...lol
Love those Mickey Thompsons!!!
Best tire I've ever had on my 4x4's bar none!!!
That 203 been hanging out with the kids at the craft store and came home with glitter all over, Busted !
Awesome and outstanding as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
I can relate to the defeated feeling of working all day, waiting on parts, working all day again... and the problem isn't fixed. Just part of it.
Paul, you're like me. I always say "If there's a sharp edge on something I'll find it."
Yip I know what is wrong,...... it's the paint, you had yourself a premonition at 32:22😂😂
I wonder if it has anything to do with bouncing odd that yankem rope pulling that tanker truck out lol
Nothing better than old Square bodies workin in their natural environment.
That mater clip was hilarious!
What a great crew!
I want to see the Wood Truck fitted with a dual T-case setup. That should give the truck approximately 175:1 ratio to crawl with a heavy load.
I love the half doors. Hot Wheels should make your tow truck. The Japanese station wagon looks lonely.
That sounds like ring and pinion sound is traveling up the driveline , ask me how I know LOL
Could be it. If they find nothing wrong in the transfer case then possibilities like that are worth checking.
@@Mark_Bridges It's still falling out of gear though.. so it still needs to be pulled apart again.
That was my first thought
@@calholli Yeah. No easy solutions.
@@Mark_Bridges The little ring that the forks slide back and forth... only works correctly in one direction.. But it's very similar and can go on both ways.. So it's an easy thing to get turned around. You have to be very particular and detailed when working inside these gear boxes.
I wish that the adaptor plate for the dubbler wasn't so fricking expensive. My tow truck the TRAIL SIDE HOOKER needs it so bad.
If you can borrow one to use as a template, you can build a copy for much less
Sounds like a bearing for sure. It's a start again scenario. Put together, take it apart, put together, take it apart, put together, take it apart. Ad infinitum.
Note to editors: Respectfully please stop putting music over the sweet sounds of exhaust from a small block Chevy on a rip climbing sand hills haha
You need a shirt that says "when all else fails ,take the wood truck." It's always ready and just gets the job done.
Paul, I neet trick for finding Bering Noise is to hold a broomstick against a part of your problem ,then put the other end against your outside of your ear. you will find it quick. the grinding sound of bering transfers through pole in form of vibrations and your ear interrupts the vibrations. Be Safe. God Bless
It’s tough to do that while cruising down the highway!😂
@@kennethbrown8723right if only they had a car lift
I use a screwdriver on bike engines and have a stethoscope with a probe instead of a chest listening attachment on it.
Works great!!!
@@BillEffinMurray Of course it only makes the noise under load on decel...so...
Had an 70' Chevy Blazer with the 465 4 speed and the 205 transferase, always popped out of low range at the worst times. Bolted a short piece of chain to the floor with a hook on the end for the shifter and never had another problem with it. Man I loved that truck.
If it didn't fall off the truck it's not broken. Thank you for keeping it real!
I change out those magnets with rare earth magnets. They catch metal way more goodder! 😊
😂
WOW! Did you guys know this? I googled Glendale Utah, and the words Fab Rats shows up on the map!
Well yeah, its a legit business?
Who cares
What about the bordello?
I'd bet Fab Rats put it there
Fab Rats has listed themselves as a business. They have added the location there, Google don't add them automatically.
I really like the cable tie on the windshield wiper.
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Agree with you on the gear noise. Sounds like a worn out GM 10 bolt when the backlash is way out of specs.
Why did y'all spend all that time and money building the tow truck when you already had the awesome wood truck? Yall are awesome! However, we need more Name That Part with Michelle (hope i spelled that right). Im a Tennessee transplant from Mississippi. I was a diesel mechanic and parts manager. I call many parts the same as Michelle. Meeting you guys is #1 on my bucket list. Yall need to take a vacation to the Gatlinburg, TN area so i can buy you lunch (or you can buy me lunch - im easy). Because of seeing you on TH-cam every week, i feel like you are family. Love you guys.
Should make a trolley to hold the doors in place when you swap them over. We’ve got one at work with a Jack at the bottom and a platform to hold the door upright in the right position. Makes changing doors a simple process. The Jack is to raise or lower the door exactly in position
You could pretty easily make some quick release hinges. Just remove the pin, grind off the ears, weld in tube at the top and bottom of one side and a piece in the middle of the other. Then make a new pin with a hole for a cotter pin at the bottom. As long as you maintain the center point of the pin, and don't make the tube too big, the hinges should work just like stock.
Hence this is the reason I don't want to ever constantly have to be fixing my vehicles. It's a very cool concept but I don't know how you have the patience to constantly fix everything you already fixed. Love the cox's❤
That is why it's rewarding to fix your own vehicles. Teaches you the patience that you believe you're lacking.
There's no escaping it. The new vehicles are manure and the good vehicles are worn out.
When the noise varies on and off load,that’s the pinion bearing going out in the differential.your hearing the gear lash changing.
I think Paul's heavy foot making the noise
The solution to changing your doors around could be by just replacing the hinge pins with the same size bolts and just pull the bolt out and swap the doors, kinda like a jeep door. The only thing that you would need is another set of hinges to use the outer half of, and I'm sure you probably already have a few in your parts pile.
Easy solution for most people when you hear funny noises is to turn up the radio. That’s a little hard for a TH-camr though with all the copyright rules.
I know the louder my radio is the better my singing gets. 😉
Use the stick method to listen for hidden noises like that. A wooden stick or metal rod will conduct the noise to your ear.
A piece of vacuum hose also works well. Or, buy aa mechanics stethoscope from HF.
Use a long screwdriver with a hard handle.
WHY DONT YOU DO ANYTHING WITH MATTS OFFROAD RECOVERY ANYMORE.
It’s probably the tool kits
Matt isn't a little btch who slags people off for doing their job like Paul did to that Ranger.
Why do you have multiple accounts?
You need a chassis ear One of my favorite tools worth the money on the first job you use it for.
Half doors are a sure sign of summer…even though summer seems months away still for us in Alaska😂👊👍
Are you guys going to do anything with Matt's Offroad soon?
Sean, you’re not fat you’re round and rounded as shape
We took the same trail to peekaboo canyon a couple months ago and got stuck in that exact spot in my sisters Durango luckily we were able push it out
Always enjoy watching the Fab Rats! Cool family, cool projects!
The joys of motoring, somedays just don't play nice! Great Channel, love the honest work!
i like how clean your truck right now underneath
I have spent a few days in my mechanics shop getting some customization done on my pickup. I think yesterday I mentioned that all the youtube guys make it look so easy. I'm guessing it takes y'all several days of working to get enough material to make a video and then however long to edit and whatever other production stuff gets done. Lotta work to put out 3 videos a week!
That ole wood truck took care of business easy 👍
Well organized parts department.
We can feel the frustration! We also know you'll overcome and conquer!
