Yes, good thing no one was hurt..a better mounting point would have been a non issue...yes, they fall off from time to time, really messed up the bodywork
With a fall like that and your exhaust coming out right where it does I would check to make sure you didn't ruin your exhaust tip bearings. Don't want that tip falling off.
That main thing is that nobody got hurt. I use to be bad for doing things like that until I dropped a mustang on myself. The rocker was on my stomach and the floor was sitting on the side of my head just enough that I couldn't move it. The only thing that saved me was the rear tire somehow got shoved under the car and the rear axle landed on the edge of it. Not sure how the tire got under there because I never put it there, maybe it got pushed out of the way of something else and just ended up where it was. Don't trust those stands you ended up using either if you work on stuff outside, they can sink in the ground just as fast as a jack and become unstable. A couple of old wheels and some wood make really nice stands and they are sturdy. Stay safe boys.
I almost got ran over by my own truck because I didn't have the parking brake on and I was underneath it and I was installing headers and you gotta go from the bottom. I was in my truck and I accidentally bumped my transmission lever and my whole truck started to roll backwards and I quickly got out from under the truck jumped in the cab and slammed my parking brake on
Should of used bilstien shocks and that wouldn't have happend !!!! Next time jack up the truck front the front axle. Put blocks and stands under the frame then let the axle hang with floor jack still under it but not supporting the truck. It will save your legs. He was right to put that tire under there. Saved your feet buddy !!!!! Buy him some lunch
Working with only a jack supporting it, major darwin award fail there. Be very thankful you came out of that not only alive but not minus any fingers, toes, or other limbs that could have gotten trapped under the rotor when it fell.
That's the stock sleeve in the rm. they had steel sleeves back then. The intake port on my 82 rm250 was cracked so I had a new sleeve installed. Good as new.
You guys probably have to adjust your valves to fix the rockers. It always works! For real awesome video guys! Keep up the great work and content! GIVE IT A ✅✅
I did the same shit with my 2011 Malibu. Landed all on the Caliper and the front corner of the door pinched a bit. Hit right where my foot was a second before. good video. nothing to make TH-cam demonetize from what i could see.
Penny Pincher, feel free to reuse the OG whistle loop as much as possible. I know that you can't do the whistle to its full potential when it's cold out or you're feeling under the weather. Wish you guys were closer, I have a lot of clapped stuff I'd give ya!
You can change shocks without even jacking up the truck or removing wheels. I do it on my 250 no problem. Also you can go that route and put it on the axle. It won't compress enough to bottom out your shock. Just a bit of advice for the future
You don't need to have the axle hanging.... You don't even need to take the tire off to do shocks. Glad no one got hurt. I have two obs 7.3 and a 6.0. love those trucks man
The front axle doesn't need to hang to change shocks. You can compress a shock by hand. In fact that shock probably could have been changed without removing the wheel at all. Since you're working on grass it would have been much safer to leave that wheel on the truck.
Wow that’s so disappointing that the rm won’t be rebuilt soon. Use the patreon money to get a new sleeve and clutch for it! I guess if you guys get the cr100 running good (aka not blow up first ride AGAIN) then that will make up for it.
Being a mechanic all my life you should know the number one rule always use jack stands don't be lazy. Don't under stand why you needed the axle to move freely for a shock.
No hate comments. But I'm just very confused. If you were just installing shocks, you didn't even need to jack it up... I didn't even take my tires off when I did mine. Live in Oklahoma on back roads and I have a 2002 7.3. just did it 2 weeks ago. But I'm glad you didn't get hurt. Other than that. Good vid guys.
9:50 The truck fell because there were no jack stands. They put a jack stand under there, but it is 3" from touching anything, and the truck is still being worked on while being supported by the jack. WTF In case you didn't know, you are supposed to lift the vehicle, raise the jack stand to the closest notch from touching the frame. Then let the truck down on the jack stand. If the jack stand hasn't got the weight of the vehicle on it, you are better off not having it under there at all. If the jack kicks out and the jack stand is under there not touching it going to shoot out like a rocket.
It really was not much of a loss considering the no jack stand dummy could have easily been killed. Always use a "GOOD" jack stand or large wooden blocks to be sure your vehicle is supported properly before working on it !
Dont worry gasman your gonna get that bike running its just sometime you have to wait shit happens and it sucks but keep positive my brotha thing turn out better
I love your dad's reaction. He said everything I was thinking.
i think we should change “the mechanic” to “the apprentice”
You live and you learn..glad nobody was hurt..keep up the good work!
Go-karts or Gone Fishin that's true but some people just live
Yes, good thing no one was hurt..a better mounting point would have been a non issue...yes, they fall off from time to time, really messed up the bodywork
You just need to adjust your valve clearances
If you don't read this in the mechanics voice there is something wrong with you
Azurda Azurda 😂😂😂😂

Lmao! You could have changed those shocks with the tires still on the truck 😂🤣😂 nice one 👍👍

Lucky man. As bad as it all is, things happen. Nobody getting hurt makes the problem just a bad day, not a tragedy.

I was in my truck and I accidentally bumped my transmission lever and my whole truck started to roll backwards and I quickly got out from under the truck jumped in the cab and slammed my parking brake on
Chris Perry lol, I can beat that. I've almost run over myself with my own truck, TWICE! I'MA DUMBASS.
Ken Caldwell hahahahahahaha
12:40 dying. Keep up the funny content you guys

Jason Petrich you have the proper way thay should take you're advice
The only normal person on this channel is the mechanic he actually has a life
Working with only a jack supporting it, major darwin award fail there. Be very thankful you came out of that not only alive but not minus any fingers, toes, or other limbs that could have gotten trapped under the rotor when it fell.
8:26 "why weren't you using jack stands or somthi'n" lol!!
Keep the powerstroke videos coming.
What? The Raptor? Hopefully for another quad! I mean ain't that the last of the QuadHicans?
7:45 they told him redness 😂😂😂😂😂
hey don't worry about it worrying doesnt solve anything doesn't even look bad that's one of the better 7.3s off that year I've seen
Billy Pierce check out my channel
Props for attempting to fix your own truck. Sometimes you learn the hard/expensive way.
Love how much ur subs have jumped been subbed since around 14k now look at u easily on of my fav channels on the tube
Mechanic I hear ya. Actually after you cleaned up the damage, it aint that bad. Glad you were not squished!
That's the stock sleeve in the rm. they had steel sleeves back then. The intake port on my 82 rm250 was cracked so I had a new sleeve installed. Good as new.
7:20 that's when the mechanic knew he fuck up
Rocker gonna need a rebuild
Nah
ironoutlaw777 the whole entire truck now needs a rebuild because of it
Lt Catfish They need to warm up the truck for like 2 hours before they can do that.
love your videos keep up the good work
that stab at haggard was fucking HILARIOUS, LMAO 12:12
Love the opening music. OG fans represent ❄️💯
Finally a new sketchy video, time to get that sketchiness overload /wink wink
Lesson learned, always jack it up by the frame when working on the suspension.
The videos are never too long
Heard you guys are coming ripping in the spring up at Ostas!
Never enough Honda's!!! Hope you guys save that RM
6:35 yeah, that's sketchy all right.
It also seems kinda sketchy to be changing the tire while leaving the engine running... :P
You guys probably have to adjust your valves to fix the rockers. It always works! For real awesome video guys! Keep up the great work and content! GIVE IT A ✅✅
luckily the "mechanic" is also a "bodyman". jack of all trades
Happy New Years Quad Ricers !!!!!!!
Press ✔️ to pay respect to the 7.3
You didn't give it a "check"
The raptor and the 400ex are my two favorite quads on the channel
Give the kid a raise ! Just did somebody a big favor.
I did the same shit with my 2011 Malibu. Landed all on the Caliper and the front corner of the door pinched a bit. Hit right where my foot was a second before. good video. nothing to make TH-cam demonetize from what i could see.
A jack is a LIFTING DEVICE, A jack stand is a HOLDING DEVICE, BE CAREFUL, YOU MIGHT NOT GET A SECOND CHANCE. I lost a friend under a 68 Buick.
Safety third.
U can get a cheap rebuild kit for less for the RM. Unless ur trying to keep it mint.
That jack is CLAPPED...
“Coulda been worse” ...starts jumping on the rocker with the truck supported by the leaf spring
yeah..wasn't that a class act.. real dumbass! common sense seems to skip this generation!
Smh didn't use Bilstein suspension
Working in the dirt with just a jack. Fucking brilliant
Why the hell didn’t you guys put some bill steins on there?!
You guys are the best. Keep up with the good work!
You can change shocks by supporting the axle... shocks compress lol
Have you ever heard of the keystone cops.LOL
Penny Pincher, feel free to reuse the OG whistle loop as much as possible. I know that you can't do the whistle to its full potential when it's cold out or you're feeling under the weather. Wish you guys were closer, I have a lot of clapped stuff I'd give ya!

We use Oak stumps, they don't split easy and are solid :) Stay safe, always listen to advice and learn from your mistakes!
You don't need to have the axle hanging.... You don't even need to take the tire off to do shocks. Glad no one got hurt. I have two obs 7.3 and a 6.0. love those trucks man
Love you guys!! Thanks so much for handling them sticker orders!

Not having jackstands is about the dumbest thing you could do
Wow that’s so disappointing that the rm won’t be rebuilt soon. Use the patreon money to get a new sleeve and clutch for it! I guess if you guys get the cr100 running good (aka not blow up first ride AGAIN) then that will make up for it.
You guys gotta make more videos
Brandon Simpson- I was thinking just the opposite.
Being a mechanic all my life you should know the number one rule always use jack stands don't be lazy. Don't under stand why you needed the axle to move freely for a shock.
We have all had one or more fall off the jack. Glad y’all didn’t get hurt
U guys are the best thing that is on TH-cam
you can put jackstands under the frame if you wanted to know
Fun fact jack stands can also go on the frame or front cross member
Use the support brace under the trans next time it is hooked to the frame.
No hate comments. But I'm just very confused. If you were just installing shocks, you didn't even need to jack it up... I didn't even take my tires off when I did mine.

You shouldn't get hate comments for something that was an accident people just need to stop the hate and learn how to appreciate lol
Norlan Pomales lmao yep shit happens it is what it is people just need to take a Xanax and chill tf out
Anthony Torres yeah I wish I lived closer to them they seem like they are dudes I can kick it and ride with
Gonna need a rebuild!
Glad the mechanic is okay, it could have been worse bro just remember that
the rm cylinder is not bad. can be fixed easily and not expensive. chear up bud
Mechanic is lucky he wasn't seriously hurt.....Crazy to work on a vehicle with only a jack supporting it.Hope he learnt his lesson.
“I need the axle unsupported” have you never done shocks before?
You can most definitely put a Jack stand under the axle and still get the shock off. I remember the first time I worked on a big boy truck
You dont even need to jack it up to change shocks
Yeah it has been a long week I haven't had my quad ricers
U guys should by a snowmobile sometime
I was talking to my dad about how cool The mechanics truck would be with the paint job and then it happened
Just a little body work not a big deal bro
Use a fucking jack stands always
That's one tough tire...
I'm pretty sure the top post on the Jack moved when he first touched the truck.. and as I'm typing this you say something to him..lol
I can't believe I seen that shit coming and was typing when it happened
It really was not much of a loss considering the no jack stand dummy could have easily been killed.
Always use a "GOOD" jack stand or large wooden blocks to be sure your vehicle is supported properly before working on it !
Its gonna need a rebuild
Snow drift the raptor!
Watch the havy duty bumper as he lift the truck up that frames trashed
THAT'S NOT OSHA CERTIFIED!!!! but actually that sucks that truck was pretty mint before that,, keep the good content comin though guys..
Frame rail. FRAME RAIL! Oh, and like the guy said Jack Stand, under the frame rail of course. Your buddy was correct, that tire saved your legs.
powerstrokes gunna need a re-build... Clapped
The 12" tip adds style, but the wrinkle in the door/rocker destoys it? You don't deserve that truck.
Dont worry gasman your gonna get that bike running its just sometime you have to wait shit happens and it sucks but keep positive my brotha thing turn out better
Lol gonna need a rebuild bud
I got stoked to hear someone else say “clapped” just to find out you’re a moto Guy. I think it’s a moto Guy term lol
Glad you're okay though.
Glad you boys weren’t hurt
Welp it’s going to need a rebuild.
That obs cab is gonna need a rebuild.
We don’t question the mechanic and his truck lifting capabilities
My dad woulda knocked the goofy out my ass f’I’da done some shit like that
Keep it up guys i like your vids! More snow drifting!
rebuild dam it!!!
