Gosh, with all the lighting fanciness, I thought I was watching the "Pakistani Truck" channel. But without the open-toe safety sandals and sketchy welding face shields. ;' )
I appreciate the contrast of rebuilding a tractor to be era correct and modernizing the trailer. I totally get it, and am the same way with my hobbies.
Yeah, I have that issue often, the OE semitrailer manufacturers use one brand, and the truck stops only sell the other, and the pigtails don't match between them........
Hey 253 thanks for making that video and let me add I am surprised Saturday Night Live hasn’t offered you a job yet or any of the late shows that was hilarious (LED how do you spell that?) you didn’t just burn Rick you buried him! But seriously I wish I was your neighbour your the kind of guy I wish I was going to all that trouble to make sure that there’s no catastrophe while the trailer is lent out! And my hats off to Senior 253 because you must have learned it from him and the Misses !🇨🇦🏗🪝
Rick is a little rough around the edges, but your endorsement about his willingness to help and his dependability says all we need to know about his character.
PJ, a good Texas made trailer product. Really like mine. Strongly recommend an electric motor drive for the jacks. It will make life much easier especially when loaded.
I did my 2008 Sierra the way you did you're pickup with the running board lights they turned out awesome, you gonna come up with something for the trailer? concerned x semi driver chicken light lover asking
lol iI just got done lubricating my jacks on the goose neck Trailer. I also sprayed Krown down the square corners of the jack to kinda lubricate the legs. Here in Ontario we have a lot of winter salt and Brine to deal with so I try to keep the legs well lubricated aswell.
Haha this was great! How do you spell led? And I can sensor you... then the screen pretty much goes black for the remainder of the video. It's great to have friends that have a awesome sense of humor. Cheers Squatch253
You know, this may actually be a good topic for a video if you decide to do this. Have you ever thought of switching your equipment, especially the 6v, to have LED lights? That could be an interesting video to watch be done.
The LED lights are an improvement. I would have gotten the full pigtail and grommet kit. Those grommets do die from weathering. As for Rick he is a colorful character. I followed him for a time but found his drinking more than I could stand so I quit. He had to bad mouth me from sharing all the negative experiences I had from family and coworker drinking to excess. It is his life but sure would hate to see his career or life end early due to drinking excessively.
Well Ricky B. I made a video you would be proud of ... the profanity that spewed forth was of such a vitriolic and caustic nature the microphone liquefied and melted into the table. My hand to god ... I was not drinking.
Squatch , Your radiator shop that you patronize up north of Cloquet is closed . The owner retired . I just found that out yesterday so i figured i'd pass on the information. Have a good day.
I also love L&M which is the MIlls Fleet Farm of MN north of Brainerd. You appear to also be a reliable friend which money can not buy and roasting is always appropriate between good friends. Is Rick's unacceptable language his way of compensating for an inadequacy? :-)
At least you didn’t run into the polarity sensitive led lamps. Always makes me frustrated when you put the light in and it doesn’t work till you cut your connections back apart. That said led is the only way to go
Let's see, extra clearance lights, midship turn signals, separate brake lights, yup, you could easily spend another $150 just in lights to get it to match your truck. Hopefully the trailer doesn't come back in more pieces than it left in.........
Is it just me, or would anyone ask themselves upon looking to buy a trailer, and seeing that they cut corners on the lights, that the question would arise "what else, that i can't see, was corner cut...?". At the very least here in Europe, i've learnt to look for these kinds of things on my own skin. Little signs, "Warning lights" as it were. Like did the trailer that cost XXXX amount, come with the cheapest possible tires on the market, or if i touch the backside of the caliper and it's wet with fluids...
He sure was chirping about buying that thing from you on his video,..... I was kind enough to inform him that trailer is probably worth just as much today if not more than you paid for it brand new!....your welcome LOL
"As much as Rick bork and dim bulb go together." Rolling on the ground laughing 😆
Good people are hard to find and rick and yourself are two great people in my opinion thanks for everything guys god bless
This what i call some great 'comic relief'. Thanks...
It is great to know people like that. I bet you are the same way

Roasting Rick videos are the BEST!!!
🤣😂
Rick is Rick a good man with a heart. Just rough around the edges. Good video on the LED lights thanks. Have a great day be safe
Oh the old Rick "dull bulb" Bork never gets old.
“...fellow inmate....”
I’ve been at Boeing for over 35 years now. I know the feeling.
Great video!!
Rick - It’s spelled L...E...D
You’re Welcome.
Dang, you must be living right to have the connectors match. It doesn't get any easier.
Yeah, I have that issue often, the OE semitrailer manufacturers use one brand, and the truck stops only sell the other, and the pigtails don't match between them........
Got to admit Rick's got a fair sense of humor inspite of his umm occasional vulgarity but God bless him hes got a good heart
pj trailer is one of the best trailer brands in my opinion, everything ive seen and used and worked on pj always comes out on top.
That is a true friendship good to see you boys in action
Thanks for the video!
Life is a learning curve!
Wow! I never thought they where that easy to replace! Awesome 👌
I was ready for a good chuckle, Thanks.
Thank you for the video.
I like that u trade like a neibour. Good on u man
I'd pay good money to watch you and Rick Bork work on a project together.
That was awesome
very witty this episode, well executed, I like it.
Don't remember where I got this stuff. Big ford logo on the tube! Lol😂😂😂😂
Everyone needs a friend like that..👍👍👍👍🙄

Where would we be without buddies like that????
Rick is a little rough around the edges, but your endorsement about his willingness to help and his dependability says all we need to know about his character.
Fine looking trailer for the model,maintenance is the key.
That Rick Bork is a real (censored) guy. Glad you have a real (censored) friend you can (censored) count on to help you.
That is nice how those lights just plug in. I was expecting to see the cutters and crimper followed by the heat shrink tubing.
Excellent video 👍👍
How often to you repack the wheel bearings on your trailer or do they have sealed bearings. Do you go by time, or mileage in your opinion?
PJ, a good Texas made trailer product. Really like mine. Strongly recommend an electric motor drive for the jacks. It will make life much easier especially when loaded.
Looks a lot better than the trailers I just picked up of the same age.
Rick Bork, fellow inmate at the Ford prison! 😂😂
I did my 2008 Sierra the way you did you're pickup with the running board lights they turned out awesome, you gonna come up with something for the trailer? concerned x semi driver chicken light lover asking
Such an easy upgrade.
Good stuff!
Nice easy upgrades!!!!!! Now you have a video of how it looked before he borrowed it!! LOL!! Thanks!!
What's the chance the trailer makes it back unBorked? :)
Saw Rick Bork's first .
Yours was funnier. Lol
Peterson and truck light interchange!!
😊👍👍👍
Nice job with the lights. Kinda hopin' to see a newly invented tool using hydraulics to remove and insert the lens from the trailer. :)
lol iI just got done lubricating my jacks on the goose neck Trailer. I also sprayed Krown down the square corners of the jack to kinda lubricate the legs. Here in Ontario we have a lot of winter salt and Brine to deal with so I try to keep the legs well lubricated aswell.
"........ I'm gunna wreck it" 🤣
Love the trailers u guys have over there 💪👍
Haha this was great! How do you spell led? And I can sensor you... then the screen pretty much goes black for the remainder of the video. It's great to have friends that have a awesome sense of humor. Cheers Squatch253
Your fellow inmate at Ford's. I bet your employer cannot laugh at that.
one of these days you gonna have to delight yourself and illuminate that trailer a little more :)
What about a license plate light? Do you not need a plate in Minnesota?
That's a good idea didn't think about that.
Use to use my 24 foot trail tech to haul 1400 round bails a year was about a month of hauling after work each nite 20 mile round trips
Love the l&m fleet
"LED, how do you spell that?" 🤣🤣🤣 'censored, censored, censored'
another great video
Dielectric grease is greatly use on connectors and pretty much all connections. I use it on trucks and equipment I work on. Cheap insurance.
Replace all the lights on the trailer, 10 minute job, replace a headlight on one of those fine new vehicles and its 3 hours for one light. LOL
What a funny son of a gun Rick is. :-)
Ahhh… I needed that laugh!!!! And you say ricks the bad influence!!!???? Yea…..ohhhh kaaaayyyyyy!!!
Here we go!
Personal insult, and a case of beer....
What are mates for lol
You know, this may actually be a good topic for a video if you decide to do this. Have you ever thought of switching your equipment, especially the 6v, to have LED lights?
That could be an interesting video to watch be done.
Trailer MFG met DOT requirements with the lights, that being said if you put more on it that's okay, but they all have to work .
The LED lights are an improvement. I would have gotten the full pigtail and grommet kit. Those grommets do die from weathering. As for Rick he is a colorful character. I followed him for a time but found his drinking more than I could stand so I quit. He had to bad mouth me from sharing all the negative experiences I had from family and coworker drinking to excess. It is his life but sure would hate to see his career or life end early due to drinking excessively.
Don't Bork still owe you one after Borking you in the eye with his tools.
good video man good job looked real nice
How do you spell led, haha that's awesome! Funny guy for sure
Well Ricky B. I made a video you would be proud of ... the profanity that spewed forth was of such a vitriolic and caustic nature the microphone liquefied and melted into the table. My hand to god ... I was not drinking.
To Bork or not to Bork? That is the question. You can only be Borken.
Squatch , Your radiator shop that you patronize up north of Cloquet is closed . The owner retired . I just found that out yesterday so i figured i'd pass on the information. Have a good day.
Jonesing around? Hmmm. Apparently it is best to do said "jonesing" w/o your wallet nearby. :-)
I'm surprised you haven't treated the decking with old waste oil in order to preserve and protect it, either way...daggum very very nice trailer!!!
Hope you remembered to put the Electonics grease on all the contacts.
You have to do a good walk around before you let Rick borrow your trailer.
New LEDs and tires from 2003, amirite?
Loaning the trailer out, not a problem. Now, getting it back?......could be tricky
Bork, Bork, Bork! Swedish chef! Kadeesh kadoo!
I also love L&M which is the MIlls Fleet Farm of MN north of Brainerd.
You appear to also be a reliable friend which money can not buy and roasting is always appropriate between good friends.
Is Rick's unacceptable language his way of compensating for an inadequacy? :-)
80w90 works good one the dolly legs
What Ide give to have a proper trailer to borrow or better yet own!
Wish you were my neighbor Sqatch253, good ppl all around.
Hey, don't talk about prison, it gives me nightmares! Ha ha.
At least you didn’t run into the polarity sensitive led lamps. Always makes me frustrated when you put the light in and it doesn’t work till you cut your connections back apart. That said led is the only way to go
New Cell.....you? HOLY CRAP!
“I don’t even remember where I got this stuff...”
🥴🤣
Similarly, I do not remember where I got this stack of blank printer paper or or the half full box of paper clips. I just don't remember..
Let's see, extra clearance lights, midship turn signals, separate brake lights, yup, you could easily spend another $150 just in lights to get it to match your truck.
Hopefully the trailer doesn't come back in more pieces than it left in.........
5:47 is where I become Rick Bork and say all sorts of expletives because I hit my knee on my ag hitch...
Is it just me, or would anyone ask themselves upon looking to buy a trailer, and seeing that they cut corners on the lights, that the question would arise "what else, that i can't see, was corner cut...?". At the very least here in Europe, i've learnt to look for these kinds of things on my own skin. Little signs, "Warning lights" as it were. Like did the trailer that cost XXXX amount, come with the cheapest possible tires on the market, or if i touch the backside of the caliper and it's wet with fluids...
Needs more lights
Too funny!
You forgot to grease the wheel bearings😁
Always enjoyable! haha
Those lights are just like the ones on a big trailer. And the three in the center on the back are called identification lights, not clearance lights.
He sure was chirping about buying that thing from you on his video,..... I was kind enough to inform him that trailer is probably worth just as much today if not more than you paid for it brand new!....your welcome LOL
Led 's are good but they dont melt the snow in cold weather.
How do you spell that ?
Thanks for the laugh this morning.
Like a %@##& Rick Bork LED trailer light upgrade Ninja!
But he will do welding on it.
Well, he didn`t spin his wheels as he was leaving your driveway with your trailer. Not sure whether to be impressed or suspicious.
Another rolling Christmas Tree huh? lol
I fill my jack with 80 w 90 weight
Lol where do you live? Limited people in a store?
