PETERBILT 349 FRAME STRETCH PT2 BUILDING INSIDE LINERS OUT OF OLD TRUCK FRAME!

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 16 ม.ค. 2023
  • AS MOST OF MY BUILDS, I AM ALWAYS BUDGET CONSCIENCE. THIS BUILD IN PARTICULAR HAS AN ABSOLUTLEY LAUGHABLE BUDGET. I AM TRYING TO USE WHAT WE HAVE AVAILABLE TO CREATE WHAT WE NEED. IT MAY NOT BE IDEAL OR WHAT I WANT TO DO BUT IT IS WHAT WE NEED TO DO. I AM USING OLD TRUCK FRAME TO MAKE INSIDE LINERS FOR THE FRAME SPLICE. AS WELL AS AN OUTER FRAME LAYER FOR EXTRA SUPPORT. WE END THE VIDEO WHILE WE AWAIT THE ARRIVAL OF PETER ZILA OF USAWELDS.COM / HTP WELDERS. HE IS COMING TO BRING US A NEW WELDER TO TRY AND TEACH US HOW TO USE IT.

    8:09 can't beat a metal saw for cuts. When i got my first one (aaabout 2013ish) i was a bit scared to use it, on account of the forces involved, but once i got over my chicken self, it's my best cutting implement and go to tool. Better than plasma, better than arc, better than grinders. Best part, you can get a beam saw, do a little bit of modifications to the cooling and slap a chop saw blade inside, which makes cutting big stock a breeze. It's scary as, but it's really clean cuts all the way.

    @obfuscated3090 ปีที่แล้ว

    I buy grinding disks (I mostly use flap disks) online or via my local welding supply. I ignore DeWalt and othe chain hardware store stuff. Quality flap disks like Norton are well worth the money. So are 6" thin kerf cutting discs for angle grinders ideal for cutting hardened steel.
    I never found a reason to run a grinding rock or especially the deadly flesh-eating knotted wire brush without a guard but cup knotted wire wheels and (small, so slow edge speed) flap discs are no issue. All my cutting discs get guards and I stay the hell out of plane of rotation. Complacency can hurt anyone and bleeding is embarrassing!
    If you need an assembly or parts blasted white a monument company is a great resource since they have towable compressors and blast pots for cutting names and dates on tombstones. I get truck and motorcycle frames and trailers blasted that way.

    Freaking AWEOME! You are an Incredible Teacher, Thank you for sharing your Insights and Design SKILLS. BTW How often do you change the Batteries on that SAW?

      Depends on what size battery i use. the 12ah batteries work the best.

    Jc if you was going to have frame rail inserts broke what kind of metal would you use to have them broke out of. Tia. I love your videos on your frame repairs.

      i would look up the specs on the truck i was needing them for and find out what it has. then contact a shop that is an actual frame rail bender.

    Looks like you have these frame jobs down to a science in the order that works best for drilling and lining everything up. I've seen some zila welding videos yrs ago. I'm guessing he's going to run some type of dual shield wire similar to what I run. There's several types that I don't even know about, but I run e71t-1 .045 wire with standard 75/25 gas. Be interesting to see what he has up his sleeve... In my short time working in a fab shop we used a dual shield wire with CO2 gas but you couldn't weld vertical with it. It was a very fast and liquid wire though. That's where I originally learned about dual shield wire. If you tack weld a t joint with regular er70-6 mig wire and then do the same thing with a dual shield wire and hit both with a hammer to break the tack weld you'll find it takes a lot more to break the dual shield. I'm guessing the pulsed mig will help with the warping also, which might be an issue. Anyway cheers, I'll try to catch the next episode...

      he showed me pulse mig with 90/10 and dual shield flux core pulse mig with 90/10. that dual shield is HOT! this dual shield process is what i use to splice the frame. yes it is an uphill weld.

      @@j.c.smithprojects yep It's hot. I seen large I beams warped from welding gussets down one side of a long beam. Supposed to have a higher deposition rate as well, so it's a little faster. Never ran it on a pulsed machine though...

    I watched all 12 parts of your video, I am wanting to stretch a 1997 dodge 1 ton to build a custom service truck but am having trouble finding anything on pickups, the pickup frames are not straight like 18 wheelers so unsure on how to proceed
