Every time I get myself to a point to where I convince myself I don’t need a diesel I goof and watch a v belt and son vid and sure enough I’m on marketplace once again
I’ve been running the blue hose on my 99 since around 06. What’s that about 17 years? Yep. Man time flies. Never had any problems. Fass is a good product.
I have 12 and 24 valves, currently driving a 200,000++ mile 24valve with the original VP44. I love my 12 valves but my 24 valves are absolutely awesome. I can tune on the fly and the 24v starts way better in the cold than the 12v p pump. (My Ve pump 12er can’t be beat). The 24v with the 4 doors puts the icing on the cake. I feel like the drivability and power curve of the 24v is better than my 12 for towing
Cool video Sam. That dually came looking nice and those chrome simulators made a big difference at the end. I’ve thought a protech headache rack and a toolbox always look cool on those trucks. Nice old school dirt perfect sweater btw.
Man you just know how to make a good ol truck better everytime! Sounds like you go a good deal on this truck and you darn sure did good with it. Wish I could find a deal like that especially with a 5600!! I’m doing some work on my 2wd 94 12 valve 3500 2wd auto. I don’t love the 2wd or auto part but I don’t have much in it and it’ll tow what I need it to so until something else comes along I’ll use it. Keep up the great work!
Hey man. Just put in a dual disk and I caught that little tip you mentioned to shave down the splines on the input shaft. Shifts like butter so thank you.
That is really cool! I really like the extended cab! That's one reason I kept my 2012 Silverado 2500HD, you can't get an extended cab anymore! Unless you buy a Fix Or Repair Daily. 8) What is your take on the $1.7 Billion Cummins/Ram fine from the EPA? Word has it they have to pay the fine, then fix it, or compensate? Just like the Volkswagen deal? I can't believe they are doing that, and/or that Cummins lied about it all these years!! Maybe they can hold off till President T gets back in!! Should be interesting in any case! Great video Sam, really enjoyed this one!! Have a good one... 8) --gary
Don't hate me, I got a 06 F350 on an oil field auction. Super dirty and very cheap. Two new batteries and drove it 350 miles home. Got the 6.0L bulletproofed $5,000 with Fass fuel pump, I went bottom sump. Already had B&W gn I just had to get a ball. Got a pretty good tune in it. Gets over 25 mpg empty. Real happy with it, but it don't sound anything like my old Dodge. It got run over by a 18 wheeler. I've put about 20,000 miles so far on the Ford, still running good.
That blow by could be a vacuum leak. I had that on my 98 24valve. It was a fitting right on top of the vacuum pump that was just dry rotted and obviously there is a ton of those vacuum lines and shit that could be the culprit. Anyway it would push vacuum into the crank case and pour out of the crank case vent tube. Just a thought!
@@offroad_fozzy8341 hell ya nothing wrong with that. I talk about my first rig in the next video I posted. Started with a blazer and a boat trailer to haul a mower on it
1st Gen Badassness🤠🤠🤠 Thx for the hardwork and working together to the common goal_ Dodge❤..You guys... ! Sam does awesome work and has a big heart !! Peace to ya ya'll
This is another reason vice grip garage prefers the plastic wing nut hose clamps that and so he doesn't stress his Leatherman trying to get the older generation of them off, and gm and Ford spring clamps...
I recently inherited an 01 24valve with the 6 speed. It belonged to a very special man that was more of a dad to me than anyone. He bought it new in 01 and drove it all over the country doing demolition. Unfortunately he passed suddenly a few years back and his stepson was about to run the truck into the ground, so his mom told me i could have it. It's my full intention to get her back in tip top shape and keep it as my daily driver/work truck. 316k on the clock and not a lick of blow-by. I know he had a tune put on it and upgraded the exhaust, thats about all i know at this point. If you don't mind, I'll be leaning on you a little to help me get er in shape. I heard you say you ordered a seat cover. A factory one? Where? Also while i was watching the video of the gold truck (which happens to look just like mine) you said you ordered a new cushion? I'm gonna need one of those too... Any help would be greatly appreciated! I should mention, this is my first diesel and first dodge for that matter.
This reminds me of another thing i like about my 2000 dodge ram truck is it is not all hacked up under the hood with the wiring harness and the air box adapter kit crap, it retains its factory air hood cap on the throttle body and the magnum V8 air cleaner snorkel tube is still on the truck so is the factory functional AC
I agree She definitely needs a SPORT grille and bumper / cover with fog lights!!! and (this is more subjective) get rid of those plastic moose antlers and either go to regular factory power mirrors or the old “west coast” mirrors.
My third brake light occasionally stays on the brake light switch is either a adjustable one that is not, or needs replaced and probably have a bit more air to get out of the brakes since it has almost all new brake lines..
Explain a few more details. The people who are not a mechanic can get more out of it if you explain the parts and the problems. Very good on description of the install process.
The biggest issue I’m having with my 01 is finding a new map sensor for it. They done a update and changed the style and now I’ve gotta buy a $900 wiring harness to match up with the new sensor
They got rid of the big round factory rv muffler mine is missing too im just going to put a mini glass pack cherry bomb muffler on the truck and however much exhaust pipe tubing to reconnect the factory single exhaust tailpipe since it is all in decent shape, and the previous owner had someone hacksaw it off because of a annoying whistle sound taking off, it was a pinhole in the muffler flange pipe in front of the muffler lol some people...
I don’t know about a FASS system on a 2nd gen. I’ve had both airdog and fass on my 2nd gens and I noticed the FASS pumps either fry too quickly or the filters have issues
I have a trailer test light kit the round to flat plug adapter i believe it is from eBay and I have a new Rams head third brake light receiver hitch cap from pilot automotive products brand parts...
I have the identical truck but its an 01 ho 6speed with 184k miles... only problem is im in Maryland & its gettin rusty smh.... what did u find the problem to be with the back drivers aide door that wouldn't open? Mine hasn't opened in 4or5 years lol
Do you have a recommendation for a Steering Gear Box? I put a Red Head on and there is still play. The RH shaft has some side to side play (I put a brace on). Also newer inner/putter tie rods. Wish I bought the Gas Truck gear box. Edit: 02 2500 H.O.
I took out the outter handle to get access to the rods and one was disconnected. And the latch had a bolt back out. Hooked back up tighten bolt and worked. I hadn’t worked on one before. Was a simple fix
10 to 15 k for a rust free diesel truck is a good deal as there wanting the same for the rusted out trucks here in Canada using the same blue books they use in Arizona ...go figure
@@VBELTandSONthanks for the reply man. i was just curious because we have some bumper pull trailers at my work that look just like that. seems like an alright trailer for the small stuff i haul
@@91silverado33 ya this trailer should have been returned to manufacture. But my dad needed it so he made it stronger to do what it was rated for. Years and years ago
Babe, get up. V belt and son posted an hour long video
🤗
Every time I get myself to a point to where I convince myself I don’t need a diesel I goof and watch a v belt and son vid and sure enough I’m on marketplace once again

Great work on this! Thanks for all of the support.

Can’t go wrong with second gen content, man would I kill to find a dually bed that clean. No such luck here in the Midwest
nice to see truck videos again

One project out and one New In, great content, keep wrenching dude. Love your videos.
V belt is why I bought a Cummins
The Beans sump is super strong and easy to install. I was like you concerned about tearing it off not the case its still there with no leaks.
My dads got a 600k 24v it’s got so much blow by but didn’t drink oil no haze and it’s been like that for the last two years, that truck will be fine
It's impressive the amount of work you get done when your helper is sleeping on the passenger seat "helping" lol
Hour video was awesome!!
Ya boy glad you liked it!!
Cool video Sam. That dually came looking nice and those chrome simulators made a big difference at the end. I’ve thought a protech headache rack and a toolbox always look cool on those trucks. Nice old school dirt perfect sweater btw.

Yeah that was first thing I checked for when I went to look at buying it. It did have a leak but even fixing it she still poofs a little
Dream truck, be looking in the local marketplace for this! 😂
I agree! Definitely a rare bad ass truck
@@VBELTandSON still working my way up to a diesel, but got myself a Chevy 2500 (not nice in any form) but gets the job done.

Always a joy watching your videos, bud. Im an og member, and you've done great work 👏 😎
It's nice and clean to use Pex clamps if you have the $80 crimp tool.

4th gen mirrors if anything

I'm on some different sh💩t this year and I think your channel will be helpful. Thanks for the info and knowledge✌️
Thanks for the shop video love watching

Great boots on the boy ..!

Want you to talk about white clearance lights 🤘
Bundy exhaust brake! Goes in exhaust
I would love to own a truck like that
You gotta give that hitch the Ole slap and "that ain't goin nowhere" or it's not official 😂
Ps. U got some good hardware on that there b&w. bravo
I don’t know about a FASS system on a 2nd gen. I’ve had both airdog and fass on my 2nd gens and I noticed the FASS pumps either fry too quickly or the filters have issues
nice sweatshirt I watch them too. Dirt Perfect
Is the parking brake on the tractor that good? I dig the truck... Id drive one like it if I could get it cheap enough.
Awesome. Do you enjoy driving the Dodge too much?
Great job on the truck, I love it. Where do I go to find the prices on your truck's. I live in the south and we don't have smog inspections.
Try one of the Bundy exhaust brakes
Can you add some air bags to her
Great video. What type of connectors do you prefer when extending wires?
Aren't the Ford 99-05 ford super duty truck frames quite a bit wider than the dodge and gm trucks?!
Look up Bundy exhaust brakes. Don’t know if you ever heard of them.
I have a trailer test light kit the round to flat plug adapter i believe it is from eBay and I have a new Rams head third brake light receiver hitch cap from pilot automotive products brand parts...
Where did you get the step that fits over the tire. I need it badly
Heck yeah brother
Nice work. I thought that yellow trailer was sold awhile ago?
Thank you and never posted it up. Didn’t know what we wanted to do with it
I have the identical truck but its an 01 ho 6speed with 184k miles... only problem is im in Maryland & its gettin rusty smh.... what did u find the problem to be with the back drivers aide door that wouldn't open? Mine hasn't opened in 4or5 years lol
I am considering buying a truck very similar to that with Do you know what gear ratio that has? 410 I am guessing.
Do you have a recommendation for a Steering Gear Box?
I put a Red Head on and there is still play. The RH shaft has some side to side play (I put a brace on). Also newer inner/putter tie rods.
Wish I bought the Gas Truck gear box.
Edit: 02 2500 H.O.
Not sure if I missed a vid or not but I’d be checking diff fluids if it’s been sitting for 8 years 👀
Oil and grease don’t expire from sitting they fail from constant heat. I did check all the fluids all good.
I have the Ottomind on mine too. Hard to find any info on it. Confused to as exactly what it does, she’s wired in good
I LIKE B ANY W STUFF TOO❤❤
bump key to cycle starter i had to do to get mine to power
Are you in Grass Valley?? I live in alta sierra, love the videos man
The plate would have been the cover for the center of the flatbed...
Asking for a friend, is it bad if a 5.9 1500 has a shorty header on one side and the factory exhaust manifold on the other side?
You didn't show how you got the back door open, I've got the same problem and was hoping you'd show how you did it or repaired it
I took out the outter handle to get access to the rods and one was disconnected. And the latch had a bolt back out. Hooked back up tighten bolt and worked. I hadn’t worked on one before. Was a simple fix
What’s the wheel you’re using on the m12 impact to clean the door thresh plate?
Amazon carpet cleaning tool
Where did you buy the barbed fitting for the fuel pressure gauge?
Amazon
Nice 🛻👍👍
You sure the blow by is not the vacuum pump?
Yes I covered that in the earlier video on the truck. Didn’t get that lucky:/
how much are you wanting for the truck? im interested
10 to 15 k for a rust free diesel truck is a good deal as there wanting the same for the rusted out trucks here in Canada using the same blue books they use in Arizona ...go figure
And on the 7th day god created a grinder, so we could fix other people's mistakes.
