This truck build has been pushing my outside of my comfort zone from the very beginning but I love this stuff and I'm very excited to get on to mounting the engine. I am nervous because this has a lot riding on it, but none the less i'm stoked!!!
Come along today as we build our custom motor mounts and get one step closer to mounting the engine and starting it up!!!

Trent, what you do is not boring. It is very informative and I like how you talk to people so they seem on a level surface.
You have a unique aspect to your building process that has to be extremely helpful. It is something that Tom Silva, Richard Trethewey, and Norm Abrams of This Old House have mentioned. Because you are building to an audience you have to explain what your plan is and then do your work knowing that there are experts watching your every move. Explaining your plan in detail is something that can only help you to be more confident in what you are doing. I don’t have to do this and make mistakes because I don’t have to explain my every step to an audience that will scrutinize my efforts. You have gotten so good at telling your audience what you are doing from Trent & Allie, which I call This New House, and you are Tom Silva (my favorite master craftsman).
Your selection of tasks to film, in this build is excellent!! Keep on keepin’ on😊
Building a rock crawler is like building a home, it’s the little details done right in the beginning that make a huge difference later. Take your time and we’ll follow along.
Trent, your videos are always informative and not boring. you let us know what you are doing every step of the way and that makes it so much more interesting than just watching someone welding without knowing what they are trying to do
And allies editting
i could never efford that bluetti but man you got me sold brother lol
Trent quit over thinking the problem. Use the 3/8th plate and it will hold better with less possible stress cracks. Also I would suggest heating the complete motor mount after your done welding to cherry red and submerging into sand & oil mixture to cool off to anneal all welds and steel.
Its all good, fabrication I like it...
My Grandpa was a machine for the Ohio State Garage. From a little girl until now I have always fixed things myself. I'm 62 years old and my husband still calls me a Tomboy. 😊
Trent, this is what your channel is supposed to be! It’s refreshing hearing you second guessing yourself as we all do but very informative at the same time! Love this channel!
Tech tip:
Install a Zerk fitting in the center of the tube that holds the urethane bushings so they can be easily greased, especially when they’re used for suspension pivots. They squeak like crazy.
This was again a clear and very instructive instruction video, thank you very much for sharing this video, greetings from the Netherlands Hans. And keep it up.👍👍👍👍👍👍🍀💯
🎊Happy Father’s Day!🎊
great day, time that you get away from worrying about the 1 percent but taking step by step is the best way....love how it compliments Trent and Allie
Trent, bit by bit, some things take a long time to do, if you do a good job. Welding is a job you have to get correct the first time.
Best wishes from Mike. 👍
totaly agree
You’re doing fine Trent. Keep doing you and your subscriber count will demonstrate the interest we have in this. Could even work the tractor repairs into this series.
I love seeing this side of your life! Not just building structures, but doing something you love!
Trent, love your video's. They are very educational. Just some minor criticism which is not intended to be negative, but watching your explanations is like seeing you wave your hands and talking in detail for 90% and actually seeing what you do for 10%.
You made progress Trent, small parts take time to build, you did great.
I don't know shirt about this stuff and I actually don't give a shirt about this stuff 😇 but I have been listening to yours and Allie's voices for years so it's no big deal for me to like/subscribe to this channel because you guys are cool beans people and I'll support you guys any way I can.....if I was rich I would definitely be donating money😊 but for now, I'm just a fan cheering you on🎉🎉🎉🎉😘
Need longer episodes of Trent’s garage. I do understand you have a lot on your plate but hopefully we can see longer content in the future. Happy Father’s Day.
Trent, please wear safety glasses when you are using your drill press. Those shards were flying and I was screaming for you to put them on. An eye injury would be horrible. Let's keep this channel eye pain free. Scared my dogs they left the room.
You and I are so much alike. We down play or discount what we have done even though we are excited and proud. We need to be proud of what you have done not what all you still have to do. We are awesome.
TRENT, you should buy a digital calipers to measure thickness or diameters and get a chart that shows drill diameters and tap size and tape it to your toolbox lid underside for easy access. This will help so their's no guesswork at the right size.
I'm not building a rock crawler, not even close, but thanks for the tip.
Good morning Trent you are doing awesome Job 👌 Happy Father's Day. Enjoy your time together with your family 😊🎏🎏🍺🍺👨👩👦👨👩👦👨👩👦🚗🚗🚗🍺🍺🍺🍺
Trent great job that is something you don’t want to screw up it is good to see you take your time.👍
trent I hope my motor mount build for my 1926 speedster comes out this good and yes I can see why this takes so much time , I thought it was just me , chris
Love each post, always informative and enjoyable
We Missed Friday's Trent/Allie Video??? I was worried something might have happened but seeing this today...guess you guys are OK.
Yeah, no video on Friday and no explanation,, either. Had me worried, too
When is trents garage gunna build a bouldering wall?!?!?! Hahahaha
Your videos are fine and informative! Thanks and stay dry!
Including us in these seemingly little things is what matters a lot-good job and be encouraged that your content is always interesting, informative and the fun factor never gets lost.
Fabrication takes time plan it re-think it re-plan it re-fit it there ain't no instructions 😁👍
Trent, Consider wrapping the headers now with heat tape before they melt something of value. Now is the time. God Bless
I’d be proud AF if I did those welds .. don’t be so hard on yourself! Great job Trent.
@Scott prentice
Yes I agree Trent’s welds look great 👍🏻
For your safety and Brandon 's I would like to see fire extinguisher mounted to shop wall and handy when working with sparks.Remember what happened to Jay Leno.
nice work Trent. Plasma cutting is good content. Welding is good content. Fab skills are good content.
We watch because you're doing.
If anyone put a camera on me while I was welding, I'd be banned from the internet!
You did a great job small projects take time just like when I chrome plate parts for antique cars
Love the attention to detail, and showing us everything.
Keep on truckin' Trent, keep on truckin' 🙏
You doing it Trent! Keep up the good work.I enjoy watching you and yourvfamily on Utube.
Don’t sweat making it more entertaining, this is great to watch!
Also Trent do yourself a favor and buy Walter zip discs and flap wheels , the flap wheels are embedded in plastic and work awesome!
The orange flap wheels.
Great setup with the Bluetti!
I would go one step further and make a male to male power cord 😱 to plug into the shop's power whenever the grid goes down.
Of course, this is not even close to being in compliance with code. The main breaker on your breaker box must be disengaged and the power in cord to the Bluetti must be disconnected, prior to using this McGyver hack.
The Bluetti's power would reverse the flow of current, back to the main breaker box, which would give you enough temporary power for lighting and to use some tools from any of the sockets that are on the same phase that you're Bluetti is plugged into.
Perhaps a DPDT transfer switchbox could disengage the input power to the Bluetti, before engaging its output power to the shop. Just switch off the main breakers (don't forget!), then switch on your Bluetti's switchbox, and "Bob's your uncle!".
OR you could just install a proper UPS that would achieve the same objective, automatically.
But of course, you already know better than to video doing what I'm suggesting, in case the local inspectors are watching. 😎
I wanna see you make a tube chassis buggy next! Hahaha
What you showed is that all this takes time, so if someone wants to pay a mechanic… well, now they SHOULD understand it’s not fast. Nice work!
Yay! U got some oil for drilling!
Oh gosh Trent all this work on your truck is never boring and you are getting so much better at completing all of this work and so glad that the hole you drilled fit that bolt perfectly and once you got everything all welded together it looks so awesome. Thanks for sharing this video, have a blessed rest of your week, sending love and hugs, bye! 😂🤗👍👏💜💜💜
You're doing great job and very informative on what you are doing great job Trent. Round your corner edges were want have a sharp edge after your install
I thought this was a very interesting episode. I don't build rock crawlers, and have never welded anything. Those were the most beautiful motor mounts that I, and I bet the majority of your viewers have ever witnessed being made!
We all want to see what you do every step of the way in building this awesome rock crawler.
I don’t know how you can explain away the “natural talent” in Trent ;it 19:28 serves so many purposes! He’s learned to be a STAR! By being a TEACHER! (Not a teacher)!
Keep making the videos! Learn something all the time!
Don't under sell yourself man.Your rocking it.Not everything in life is a roller coaster ride.There's a lot of boring shit that has to be done to make somethiing awesome.
Those are some pretty good looking welds.
Tip from an old welder. If you want to make a super strong weld, you have to make a second weld on the same weld seam. Do the test with two strips. Good luck.
Just a hair out of square! Love it! You’ve got this Trent!
Hi Trent, just an FYI most likely the factory motor mount is cast STEEL which you can weld with you mig welder. Cast IRON needs to be welded with NI rod or stainless steel rod and a different technique. Keep up the great job and have fun.
You’re right i goofed by calling it cast iron
That's good news. I was hoping it wasn't cast iron. That would be a disaster.
Happy Father's day, Trent! People who made things in the 1800's were the greatest innovators! Nothing wrong with that!
Trent, how about wearing a body microphone? A lot of echo!
I’m working on a solution, hopefully soon
Personally, I enjoy watching you make a few motor mounts out of several motor mounts.
Nobody is freaking out about the tubing holding the entire front end on?
I am. I would have used some heavy rectangular steel tubing like big truck frames use. Might be okay for on-road, but I bet that big engine bends the little round tubing once you start rock-crawling. Or maybe you plan on lots more tubing sections to get triangulation.
Happy Father’s Day, Trent. Hope you get some time with Joel and that both he and Leo fill your day with joy and laughter!i I think you are already enjoying this day!
I never knew that transmission jacks existed. The song 😊that should be running through your head: “Slow Down, You Move Too Fasf, Got to Make Your Morning Last”…
Trent I’m sure I don’t speak for only myself when I say this. But wether or not you have the most epic content or a video like today people are going to watch it because they enjoy you. The way you love it or explain with passion makes me want to watch whatever is going on in your life at that time. You and Ally are fantastic don’t stop making videos. I look forward to watching every one. And Happy Father’s Day!
great job !
Kudos to “camera man” Brandon. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Dear Trent , you're talking too much and loud !! Improve yourself ...
Trent enjoyed your excellent demo of welding up motor mounts👍👍👍👍
I've been waiting for this one to see the process. love these videos
You probably should have fitted the poly bushings in place before welding.
Love Sundays cuz trents garage is on. Missed y'all Friday.
I need you for my mechanic.Because you know what your're doing.
Trent, it’s like making sausage. Sometimes it’s difficult to watch the process but the end result is always fine. Enjoy your problem solving skills.
FYI- Your truck is gonna weigh 10,000 lbs because your motor mounts are so heavy!!
Good video. All of life isn’t super exciting and action packed. It was educational.
There’s no way the crankshaft is on the same plane as the driveshaft. Use CV joints on the driveshaft
obligatory make fun of you for using 3/8" steel to make your truck weigh 10000lbs, when you could have used 1/2"! :). enjoying the build!
Since Surfshark was the first sponsor on Trent’s Garage in the past, Bluetti would be next. 🌊🏄🦈🔵
🎉❤ Congratulations!!!! You did a great job 💯
Nope, another great Trent's Garage Video. The only change I'd ask is more Brandon. I'd call him Robin to Trent's Batman, but Brandon is Batman level as well. Trent you make the building journey most interesting and informative.
Content is fine by me.. You don't have to fill 24min - can be 15min sometimes. All good from my perspective. Thank you for sharing! :)
Like I said before, I have no idea what you’re doing… But it’s fun to watch! Hearing you say “ this is making me nervous”, It’s like you saying ” I hit the lottery!”. I think you thrive on impending disaster and that’s also fun to watch!
Come on Moab!!!😎
Good morning Trent and happy Father’s Day Yep I’m here watching
it looks like a big fart, hahahhahahaha ( see eamon and beck for the joke ) (picking up the van in germany )) dude, before long you are going to be the go to guy for special parts and new vehicles, best of wishes keep on keep'n on..................
Naw, you're ok. I'm anticipating how you're going to complete the front engine tube frame with the engine and transmission mounted
Why would you make fun of your motor mounts??? Of wait a minute.. not making fun of them but designing them. oh, thats a different type mocking... never mind. lol
Trent, very beefy welds. Those motor mount adapters are bomb proof. You should have no trouble with them. I thought Brandon laughing was funny. He does a good job with the camera.
My car dealer is charging $900 to replace my car engine's motar mounts. I had no idea it was this labor intensive. Thank you for the demonstration.
Trent, I really enjoyed your videos, I know nothing about what your doing, but your so informative, by the time you are done and rock crawling, I will know the build from one end to the other. I love it when people explain, I'm learning too. See you Friday on Trent and Allie. Have a blessed week. ❤
I ❤ your “camera man’s” snigger/guffaw when you said it was the most beautiful mount.
I'm not so confident in the 55 but 45-50 maybe I'm thinking should be easy enough
Welding question. Why doesn’t he just have a bucket of water that he can cool those hot pieces down in?
They ARE the most beautiful motor mounts I’ve seen. Of course I may have seen other motor mounts but as I could never have recognized them 😅 these are beautiful!
Trent, again, you are doing a great job and your videos are great! You are not boring at all. And btw of course Trent’s Garage is going to have county music background Lol . I love it. Keep going and think positive 😊
Definitely some good info there. Just the kinda stuff I was looking for to watch.
I’m enjoying the build, plus Brandon is doing a great job videoing it too. Love his soft chuckles at things you say or do.😊
Baby steps young man, oh Happy Fathers Day...!
Trent even though I'm a woman I still enjoy your Channel 👍💯
TH-cam sent me this on a Saturday morning nine months after it came out. tHanks TH-cam.
What you’re doing today reminds me of when I used to quilt. Only a passionate quilter would buy perfectly good fabric and cut it all up into little pieces and sew it all back together. Seems you’re doing the same only with metal. I get it. 😃
K one thing Trent I do a lot of fabrication at my work everyday. And there is days where I don’t feel that I got anything done. Just keep plugging away.
You get thousands of comments on the other channel. The woodpecker is trying to attract a mate. It'll end soon. Otherwise its announcing its territory living nearby. Peckers have many home each in the area and only reside to one ling term if layed eggs.
Year after year the same pecker would peck on the gutter in the exact same spot outside my moms bedroom window and drove her nuts. She worked multiple jobs too.
I found it very funny!
Watching the sparks hit that air jack rubber bellows made me cringe, please move it next time.
Oh yeah?! Well, I'm gonna motor mount a motor mount to another motor mount!! Motor mount might motor mount while motor mounting the motor mount, so I better motor mount the motor mounts to a motor mount for the motor mounts
I really don't want to watch you build a car in a half hour like they do it on TV Trent! I have built too may vehicles to know that's unrealistic, I like just the way you do it. Too bad you can't show all the thought process involved also. By the way, I believe you're factory engine mount brackets were cast steel and not iron which would have been weaker and far more difficult to weld.
