I think people forget when they make a trailer from an old pick up bed, that the rear end in there still needs to be serviced, at least every few decades depending on how much use it gets. A friend had an old trailer like this and was hauling a load of donated food for the church food pantry 20 miles back to the church when on an uphill grade with a 2 foot shoulder he lost the entire passenger side axel wheel and all, right over the cliff. I went down, we loaded to food into my truck, hooked a chain on the trailer and dragged it a few hundred feet to wide spot and left it. I'm pretty sure he took the plates and never went back LOL It's always a fun time at Dad's jungle hide-away, what will emerge from the undergrowth next?????
I love watching you and seeing how resourceful you are! I have a 1973 Dodge Sportsman class C camper van that I would happily sell to you for $5.00. But you have to come to southeast Iowa with a way to haul it home. I would love to watch you get it all working again💖
I subscribe to you and superfast Matt. On the surface very different, but essentially the same. Dry humour, technical experts, lots of projects, not all finished
2:37 A high-school tech assistant used to be a major fan of vernier calipers, to the point of convincing me to pick those up to replace my plastic digital one. A choice I do not regret making, though since I lost my good one, the one of the same brand I replaced it with having a bind spot halfway down the range. The accuracy is about on-par with the electronic ones, but they always work and not having the hassle of the constantly draining weird button cell battery is nice.
Excellent another 'enchanted scrap forest' video... Of course, after only 21 mins, I now need to go back in time and watch a few earlier forest adventures to get my fill for the night.
Excellent video James :) yes find nice finds especially old Ford box got fixing up also would put metal big sheet floor and weld up in place! Also wonderfull finders keepers and did superb!!
Huge fan of this channel, your gentle optimism is so lovely, starting my first project car soon and I'll take your mantra with me to the garage evert day :D love from the UK!!
I live where we use winter tires, so I always buy a set of rims to go with my tires to avoid paying that mounting fee. I also rarely buy used tires unless they're already on rims that fit for the same reason. It also lets me downsize the rim and upsize the tire, since it's only the outer diameter that has to match stock (as long as it clears the brakes).
Pickup truck trailers are rare. In the rustbelt its usually the first thing to go out on a truck, not the last thing to survive :) Like the professional paint jobs on this channel :)
I like how you work with what you got. its like how it was when we where growing up as kids we had to make parts scavenge parts to fix are bikes gokarts and mini bikes . Now people don't fix things they buy new
You are my cool uncle I have never had in my life. In Poland we don't have so much "rusty old cool machines and vintage rusty cars" culture. Anything "rat-style" is less common than Lamborghini.
If you needed a reserve battery bank for camping, that pickup bed trailer would be the ticket to carry it. And that unused universal joint connection on that differential would be a nice drive point for an alternator or generator to charge that battery bank while driving.
Great video, as usual! However, would probably had tried to remove that pinion gear all together from that axle, reducing rolling resistance in the process. 🙂
That trailer with the crane is awesome. I'm working on one right now from a scrap trailer and an old crane. If you cant find bearings just swap out the axel with one you can get bearings for.
Yeah, I've been wondering how he makes a living to have time to do all this and have a family. 115k subscribers does not seem like enough to live off YT. I work full time and barely have enough time to do an oil change these days.
I am from india. Do use the dremell tool with diamond tips for removing corroded bolts, and bad tings on outboards. They will be grinding away. Impeller is fine, if it's many arms are touching the sides, and thermostat must be left in vinegar and spices overnight, to clean it. Do be checking the gearbox for milkshake oil! I am from India.
Sir kindly make a video on maintenance of vehicle.. like previously you have made video on wiering of any vehicle, which gives us lots of knowledge...so grant my request... love from odisha, India ❤❤❤
I've had a similar thing happen to me buying an oil filter from Walmart. Bought the filter then realized that someone opened the filter box and swapped a different sized filter. Now I open the boxes and check the filter
Hey, new subscriber here from the UK. Love your work and presenting style! Im sure I can’t be the only one who’s noticed this, and I’m showing my age here, but has anyone ever told you that you sound like Hank from King of the Hill?? Great job, love the channel!
You do stuff like me. Don’t know if that’s a compliment or not.
I would be worried.LOL😃😀😎🇺🇸
Hahahahah same.
I say: This time it's not.
Best regards, luck and health in particular.
I think if half of us are not scatterbrained we have every right to be!
Need inventory of your stuff. You can never have eniff stuff......see GEORGE. CARLIN ROUTINE😄😄😄
Who knew that forests are the natural habitat for trailers
Only pick your trailers when they are fully ripe.
@@matthewb8229 I'd say these might have ripened for a bit too long.
...and those trailers nest so close to the logging trails.
You are so lucky to have all of this cool stuff on your families land. All I want is a forest full of old cars and machines to work on for fun.
I can't believe I caught a video fresh off the presses. I absolutely love this channel
Going tooo upscale with fresh grease and bearing's

Great content, off the cuff dry humour, brilliant.
The way you handled that trailer tail light assembly was pure genius!!
We sure love your longer videos!... anybody else agree?
Always a great day when a low buck garage video drops
Heck, you can start your own trailer rental business there now! Lol 🤣
I love watching you and seeing how resourceful you are! I have a 1973 Dodge Sportsman class C camper van that I would happily sell to you for $5.00. But you have to come to southeast Iowa with a way to haul it home. I would love to watch you get it all working again💖
Watched probably all your videos this weekend , I hid in my shop with the ac , catching up on inside projects
I'm glad this was a full video and not just a trailer..
I like what you did there.
I really enjoy you letting me hang out during your projects, thanks!
Fearless in your approach to any problem, I love it!
"So I'm done here" when working on the trail light had me laughing out loud so hard. Thank you
woohoo! I like the part where he walked up to the trailer and said "It's trailering time!"
I subscribe to you and superfast Matt. On the surface very different, but essentially the same. Dry humour, technical experts, lots of projects, not all finished
love the built-in drainage holes in the trailer bed
Uncle Jed and Granny would be proud to have you as an adopted cousin.
Trails in the woods are super common where I live but I never found a single hidden trailer there 😉
You're guaranteed to learn something whenever watching one of these video's,😉👍, awesome video, and thanks for sharing.
Nice job sir cool trailer Nice show 👏👏👏👍👍👍
you are a 5 out of 5 brother.. Blessings and Shalom over you and your family? We Love You Matt.
“Hexagon spacers”… love this channel 👍
Only videos I watch more than once. I learn a lot too.
I'm jonesing for an update on trailers and Connecticut living. Enjoy your summer.
I helped a friend turn a 1966 pickup with a bad motor into a trailer. It looked a lot like this, but ours was a long box.
Love the videos Buck they are awesome, hope to see some more of the Franken half-track in the future.
Looking forward to the next installment of the trailer saga! You're the man, James! 😊
I am a huge Low-Buck Garage fan. I learn so much from watching you. Keep these great videos coming please! Thank you from Upstate New York.
Great video!!. I think the whole mangled nut cutting (and maybe still have fingers after) part would've the job for a hacksaw 😂
Always an adventure. Thank Low Buck
I learn Island.
Something every time I watch your videos
I Live Vicariously Through You
Bicariously is a strong statement 👍👍

lol he stands across the property looks good from here 😅
Yea the 50-50 view
50 feet away
50 mph
Looks great
You just impress us to no end. I spend the whole video with my jaw dropped! Thanks for entertaining us!
Excellent another 'enchanted scrap forest' video... Of course, after only 21 mins, I now need to go back in time and watch a few earlier forest adventures to get my fill for the night.
just love your videos, always cheer me up. cant wait for next in line vids.
Had a 1965 Ford pickup. That bed is that vintage. Nice shape
Excellent video James :) yes find nice finds especially old Ford box got fixing up also would put metal big sheet floor and weld up in place! Also wonderfull finders keepers and did superb!!
The pickup box is mid 60's. At least you're having fun.
Always a good day when Low Buck Garage releases a video. Thank you!
Outstanding and awesome content as always.Thanks for sharing and taking us along
Huge fan of this channel, your gentle optimism is so lovely, starting my first project car soon and I'll take your mantra with me to the garage evert day :D love from the UK!!
One & a half videos in one! Not baad. That's like more ice cream or one & a half donuts instead of the standard helping! I hope part two is that good.
Looks like you're still having fun!

Like the professional paint jobs on this channel :)
My leisure routine is to wait for James' next video. This was great as always, the taillight part was as Magaiver as it could have been
You have the patience of Job,..😊
Love those Harbor Freight taillights
I like how you work with what you got. its like how it was when we where growing up as kids we had to make parts scavenge parts to fix are bikes gokarts and mini bikes . Now people don't fix things they buy new

To be continued Are not fun LMAO keep on rockin brother I love your videos you have such a great sense of humor
Nice job on the repairs James 🙂👍
Altijd goede video’s, thanks 👍🇳🇱
Used your adjustable wrench and other wrench trick because I didn't have a metric. Worked great. Thanks for the tip!
That is an early 60s bed. I have a 64 long bed and that is a nice looking short bed. Love the channel .
That is a 1964-1966 Ford pickup short bed. Good find.
Mid to early 60's on that for bed buddy ! Dad had a 64 ford PU that the bed look just like that one .
Looking forward to seeing that tractor in a vid, little thing looked neat.
If you needed a reserve battery bank for camping, that pickup bed trailer would be the ticket to carry it. And that unused universal joint connection on that differential would be a nice drive point for an alternator or generator to charge that battery bank while driving.
Today you really delivered a low low buck project 😄
Great video, as usual! However, would probably had tried to remove that pinion gear all together from that axle, reducing rolling resistance in the process. 🙂
At homd in bed. Had knee replacement surgery. Not feeling to great then i spied out a video from LBG. Feeling better already
Still loving your content. Keep up the great work.
That trailer with the crane is awesome. I'm working on one right now from a scrap trailer and an old crane. If you cant find bearings just swap out the axel with one you can get bearings for.
Very enjoyable video! You do great work!
My newest floor Jack is a Die-Hard. I like it!
You're sure a handyman! 👍
I love this stuff. If I could support my life doing it, I totally would.
Yeah, I've been wondering how he makes a living to have time to do all this and have a family. 115k subscribers does not seem like enough to live off YT. I work full time and barely have enough time to do an oil change these days.
Why replace the pinion seal?
Toss the pinion & plug the hole.
exactly! 😄
I have serious trailer envy. Great video as always!
Always excited to see your videos. So much fun! Thank you.
No such thing as too many trailers. It just makes life more versatile
I am from india.

Having lots of fun. Thanks
You do so much great stuff
Once again low -Buck great . Keep it coming. I get a kick out of you.
Your paint prep method is very similar to what I do on the very few things I actually paint
I always enjoy and look forward yo your videos!
Another enjoyable video! Thank you!
Sir kindly make a video on maintenance of vehicle.. like previously you have made video on wiering of any vehicle, which gives us lots of knowledge...so grant my request... love from odisha, India ❤❤❤
Like always great content!
the original taillight bucket socket you can rebuild so dont toss them
Great projects
Definitely a 40 ft beauty 😂
Had a 72 ford pickup that green color.old licence plates are great for truck bed patching.
I wish you lived next door. I have an entire barn full of projects that need doing.
Boat trailer just needs some scrap pieces of structural rebar welded to it, good as new.
Vice boost is genuenly genious
I've had a similar thing happen to me buying an oil filter from Walmart. Bought the filter then realized that someone opened the filter box and swapped a different sized filter. Now I open the boxes and check the filter
You should buy wireless magnetic trailer lights. I always keep a set on my truck just in case. They've come in useful at least three or four times

Same color I just painted my Fj62!
Now I need to build a flatbed trailer with a jib crane and some of those car ramps
❤ the channel 😊
We had an update from Robot Cantina and LBC in the same day. What a wonderful Sunday!
