A friend of mine has the same transmission in a grain truck. I took some corn to the mill and it had to go to an overflow building. Had one of the kids from the mill showing me where to put it. Backing in the building I put it in low and the kid was getting huffy about how slow the truck was. I started shifting gears going backwards he looked at me like I was crazy. It was great.
Momma says stick with what you know. I think you made a great choice for you and your business. Probably not a priority but your attack stacks are always cool. Shine On!
I just wanted to let you know I'm a mechanic by profession but I have a passion for earth moving and have a dump truck, excavator and skid steer that I use only for volunteer work around my community. You channel is the perfect blend of working on equipment and using equipment for my every day life. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming, even if they are 3 months late.
Travis, I am looking to do the same thing as you. I enjoy the work and enjoy helping others. I have acquired a dump truck and trailer so far and am working on getting my first piece of equipment. Do you operate as a Non-Profit or do you strictly do it all pro bono? Would love to talk with you about your journey so far.
“The History Channel”. Now that’s funny. 😂 I don’t care when you make them, when you post them they’re brand new to me and they’re my favorite. By the way, a Mack was my first truck too.
You're one of the few YT'ers that run Mack trucks and they seem to be reliable. Anything that has gone wrong you've been able to fix yourself without needing to take it to the dealer.
You really have to respect a man who came up working. And now that Mike is the owner -boss he still gets in there and gets his hands dirty. I really enjoy watching this channel.
Thanks for introduction of the new Mack / little Dan. I fully understand and agree with you that Lieutenant Dan is a novelty. But it sure would be glad to see it on the job site earning his keep. Again, thank you for the video of the new Mack. It’s amazing how much you can get done by yourself.
Congratulations Mike!!! So happy to hear and see you got a truck that's been cared for! Love these videos about servicing and fixing, when a rig gets its well deserved care.
Hello from the Netherlands. Nice new (to you) truck to the Dirt Perfect fleet . I envision a "Dirt Perfect" plate or truck nameplate appearing on that front bumper. I think that place is crying out to be able to carry a nice plate thanks for the video DP. Sincerely Hollandduck
Hope we get to see You and MBTS finish all the "knick-knack" stuff on the cool new truck, plus a big shout out to Clint at C&C Equipment, who through a number of other channels does a lot of good things for a lot of people, not least his latest benevolence - a full tool kit give away (that is, after a year's hard out work with them by him and Kevin) - my only lament is I live half a world away! Great video as usual Mike, looking forward to your spring / summer works program and seeing You, Jerry Matt, and Aaron back at it again!
Actually, Lt Dan does have a useful niche application if you run into a situation out in the woods building a pond or something where Bubba Dump won't fit or can't turn around easily. Lt Dan could pick up the slack perfectly on those on site haul jobs in tight quarters. Not to mention you can drive Lt Dan over the road to the jobs.
Not coming here to say you’re wrong, but I thought I might mention - Bubba Dump can drive itself to the job too😂😂😂Ask me how I know🤣🤣Those suckers can move out in high gear - watch out for the bumpy roads though, people get a little freaked out when they start bouncing😂😂
@@wesleyfranzen6675 Technically, yes, Bubba Dump can drive to job sites, but if Officer Hoover catches wind of it, he'd probably have a few words with Mike, is my guess. Plus, for short distances, OK, I can see it, but if you have a job 10 or 20 miles away, you're not even going to consider driving Bubba there over the road.
I love an old Mack. I drove a CH613 for a while. 18 speed, it was awesome! As far as a paint job, it’s gonna make you money by working, not sitting at a car show. It is a sweet truck Mike!! Congrats!!
☘️🇮🇪🇺🇸Morning Boyo, nice sensible buy! Love those big dogs myself,they make the nicest rumblings❤️ What folks don’t get is Dan has ALWAYS been your “ get away from it all,extra cash”project. Blessings upon ya hard being where the buck stops .
I think you found a diamond in the rough Mike. All those trucks you looked at in the auction sure didn't stand up to well. Clint found you a winner. Hope it works for a long time. Enjoyed seeing you go through the whole truck and explaining what you are looking for. Enjoy the new ride.
Well from way down here it is looking like a good auction buy and a big thanks to Clinton for staying behind and winning the auction bro. Look forward to see you and Aaron getting it ready for work. Safe travels
Sharp looking mack for its age. I just bought a pre emissions 02 Kenworth tri axle as well. Im very happy with the truck. I used to drive this model mack, one of the toughest trucks out there.
Clint has a great auction eye. I sold utility trucks for the power line contractors. They didn’t want new but they wanted it to go to work and be dialectical safe when they hit a job sight. When they have to put men up a 100 feet they want a great boom which I worked for Altec and a stable truck for that boom. People don’t understand what tough stress that boom puts on the frame so the section modulates had to be as strong as if I was putting a dump bed on the truck. That’s what contractors liked when they bought equipment from me because I considered myself as the contractor customer. Once you proved yourself they depended on me to fill their needs because they work hard for their money. This is why I love Dirt Perfect.
I think you should call it Forrest Dump! LOL or Mack Daddy, that would be good too. I about spit out my coffee when you said the history channel, Way too funny. Have a great day Mike!
C&C equipment is a great channel and a stand up guy he’s earned my respect looks like a great truck should last you a long time thanks for sharing You probably already know but you can adjust the steering stops to get a little better turning out of it they never turn sharp enough at factory set
I understand your posting schedule, it works the same for me at least your not posting videos from October in April like me 😂. Nice truck. If I ever get into bigger projects That would be on my shopping list
She's a nice truck Mike and good that you have friends like Clint looking out for you at these events. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the maintenance on this truck.. As for name... I was thinking maybe "Auction Tim" lol (as in auction time.. but minus the e.. to reflect its background)
As for the truck came out of Florida don't forget the freeze protection on the engine coolant as well as ph. Love the clean chassis and undercarriage. I fought the rust and corrosion of the north for my entire career.
Great video Mike, this Mack is a great addition to the family. Still has a lot of availability for you. Thanks for sharing. More videos to share soon. Have a great day.
Hobbies are the best time wasters and money spinners - Lt Dan will wait for 'history' to be made. The Mack is a huge improvement and will be a valuable addition to the fleet. Remarkably clean too.
Heads up to Clint @ C&C you have a great partner and friend with some of your and MBTS banter and talent it will serve you well hopefully great watch it’s April of 2023 👍👋🇨🇦
Something to consider when you're putting your signs on your truck, also put the tons you want the quarry loader to load in your truck. Place the amount you want on the top corner of the bed so the loader operator can see it. I recognize trucks easy enough but never remember the tonnage they want. Tri axle want anywhere from 17 ton to 20 ton with one guy hauling 24 ton. Even the tandem guys haul from 15 ton up to 18 ton with 15.5 being normal. Them you've got the aluminum beds coming in and they want something else. Not everyone has radios
Not a bad truck, walker beams in good shape, if that's a self adjustment clutch you can tell the wear by to gauge wear they have on them which makes it nice for clutch wear thanks for the video
Looks to be in great condition for a truck of its age and should serve you well ! As you said beds at that ages are usually time expired ! You can always get a new bed for it in a year or two ! :)
Nice job Clint, great find. That was awesome. Got Lucky, glad he was there. Great paint job... Scary of what maybe underneath. Thanks DP for showing us the service after a new to you purchase and what to look for.👍 God bless. Ps. Can't wait too see Lt. Dan in the fleet. I understand priority first. I'll wait 😢😂
I watched this one all the way through for the second time. I don't think I left a comment tthe first time, so here's one you earned. Kudos for giving your new Road Warrior it's due! That was a complete inspection and tour. "Road Warrior" because unlike Bubba Dump, this is fully outfitted to haul anywhere and fulfill any need. I'm sure it will work out for Y'all. Thanks to Chris for the find and assistance. Great Lookin' Out!
"Snow White" looks very much like she will fit the slot ÿou needed to fill. When the Grumpy dwarf is able to stroke her with his welding skills she will ready to go! This addition may not require as much repair as Bubba Dump; but, I see satisfactory results that will have a profitable return. Good job. Thanks Clint!
Very neat truck. As for a name, being an Aussie I immediately went to Slim Dusty. Married to my bulldog Mack, Pushin’ time, bent axle bob, dieseline dreams. Major McQueen (his wife) could be an idea
Very nice truck, DP. , CLINT @ C&C Equipment Found you. You and Clint have become good friends over the last few years, and I can't wait to see you put your and MBS STACKS on the truck , and the truck starts making you some money . Go to spend money to make money. You and your family and crew have a wonderful and bless week.
Thanx Mike for explaining about Lt. Dan. I will get off your back about it and realize that someday before I die (I hope) we will see it done and hauling at least one load. Business is business.
We have three of those old dogs in our fleet, two as straight trucks and one as a tractor. Bought em new and run em in the oilfield since day one, still solid reliable trucks today. Only problem we have is the electrical for the dash. Not the fanciest truck out their but nothing takes a beating like a mack, great off road truck.
It's nice to have friends in the Business that knows equipment ,and will steer you in the right direction in buying the right piece for the right price ,and you can trust them
The history channel comment was hilarious. Glad you take things well. I don't think anybody understands how busy all you guys are. Then add video and editing. Thanks
Got to say that reverse does sound nice. One of the few things about normal manual transmissions in some tractors and all passenger vehicles is how high gear reverse is compared to 1st. And yes, I know many tractors have shuttle shift, but none I've had the chance to do more than move from A to B.
With what you've explained about training and knowledge and experience working on this particular truck sounds like an outstanding justification for picking this make and model. Like all vehicles they're going to break down sooner or later. Congratulations!
Congratulations on the new truck. Glad you were able to find a truck that will fill your needs for the next few years. Enjoy your videos!! Keep'im coming!!
Yes truck was in background of other videos. I used to enjoy my Spicer Trans. Messed with a lot of people who had never seen such a behemoth. Looks like need to find you some gold puppies for the big dog

If he had the money I'm sure he would pay or employ people to work on the Machines for him.
@@MrWhateverfits 100%! 👍🏻
We all know he’d rather be spending time with his family than doing oil changes
Noting to do with money love working on my stuff
@@DirtPerfect YEAH, that's why they LAST because you have the ability to *THINK*, see & hear then ACT on it!

So happy to hear and see you got a truck that's been cared for!
Love these videos about servicing and fixing, when a rig gets its well deserved care.
Hello from the Netherlands.
Nice new (to you) truck to the Dirt Perfect fleet .
I envision a "Dirt Perfect" plate or truck nameplate appearing on that front bumper.
I think that place is crying out to be able to carry a nice plate
thanks for the video DP.
Sincerely Hollandduck
Daisy Mae is going to be a good work horse. She is going to service Dirt Perfect well with some loving care. She's close to hauling steady.
Hope we get to see You and MBTS finish all the "knick-knack" stuff on the cool new truck, plus a big shout out to Clint at C&C Equipment, who through a number of other channels does a lot of good things for a lot of people, not least his latest benevolence - a full tool kit give away (that is, after a year's hard out work with them by him and Kevin) - my only lament is I live half a world away!

Looks like a pretty good buy. Kind of surprised at the broken x-member considering how well maintained it appears in general.
congratulations mike
I was starting to wonder if this video was out there. Lol! Thank you sir for the video. The history channel I like it
Nice buy Mike!
Nice of Clinton to hang around and survey the truck a bit!
Ed from Chicago 🙂
That's an awesome addition to your fleet. I can't wait to see it working on your channel
Good Sunday evening everyone, thanks for sharing DP. 🇦🇺
Nothing wrong with a project build! The new Mack looks great!

Awesome Dump Truck! Clinton did you good! Your walk around was very good. Thank you for sharing! 😊
Nice truck. I like how you go through your purchase for a clear look at condition before you start loading and dumping. That's called smart.
I know were going to see a lot more of this old girl! Can't wait to see how she works out😀😀😀
I love an old Mack. I drove a CH613 for a while. 18 speed, it was awesome! As far as a paint job, it’s gonna make you money by working, not sitting at a car show. It is a sweet truck Mike!! Congrats!!

Old Dog sounds like a good name for her

Looks like Clint found you a good truck. Good luck with it
Just imagine how much more you would get if you didn't take us along!! Thanks for the extra time and effort!!
Good point, I am definitely glad we get to go along
As long as he makes good money from us watching. We get to come along for the ride😅😅
Sharp looking mack for its age. I just bought a pre emissions 02 Kenworth tri axle as well. Im very happy with the truck. I used to drive this model mack, one of the toughest trucks out there.

Call the New Mack dump “Spike” after the bulldog from Tom & Jerry cartoon! Thanks for video!
GREASE THE SLACK ADJUSTERS NICE BUY DP
Good catch on the puppy dog, looks like a solid piece.
Cousin Mike has a fire going on his channel. No fires here.......Nice buy
Nice new addition to the tool shed DP. Good video. Thank you.
Good luck with the new truck looks like it will fit the bill ! 👍👍👍👍😊
Mike I seen the blow by when you were driving it to the shop really not to bad.enjoy your truck.
Loved the dual rear axle short wheel base mack powerful truck always wanted to own one
She's a nice truck Mike and good that you have friends like Clint looking out for you at these events. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the maintenance on this truck.. As for name... I was thinking maybe "Auction Tim" lol (as in auction time.. but minus the e.. to reflect its background)

Clean frame love those southern trucks really clean nice to work on.
Congratulations on the new addition, for 20+ looks great
....MBTS will not be happy with that passenger seat😅😅😅
Wow, that was fast! I didn't think we'd see this video for at least a year. 😂
Hobbies are the best time wasters and money spinners - Lt Dan will wait for 'history' to be made. The Mack is a huge improvement and will be a valuable addition to the fleet. Remarkably clean too.
Congrats on the new truck. U can definitely tell by the frame that its a Florida truck.
Good looking truck. I hope it does you well for many years to come. God Bless and Good Health.
Congrats! Nice addition to your work fleet. Looks like it's in good shape and should serve you well.
Howz about "MAJOR MACK". Great truck. Its okay for Lt. Dan be a hobby. We all got one.
Welcome back Sunday morning great truck Mac👍⭐

Super clean for a twenty year old working vehicle
Nice looking Mack! Always good to have reliable equipment, as much as you haul!
Congrats, looks like a great addition to the fleet! Always loved Mack’s, IMO they just look BA.
congrats on your purchase
Can we win the tickets twice?!
Love the new truck, been waiting for this vid! Excited for the repair vids too
Looks like that trucks gonna work good Clint from CNC. He’s the man seems to be a good guy.
you may won’t to look into getting a bulk system for oil and HD it would be cheaper then going and buying it at the store every time
You won’t find a better auction truck. Got confused on those rears. Then I figured out they’re top-loaders. Nice puppy dog.
Very neat truck. As for a name, being an Aussie I immediately went to Slim Dusty. Married to my bulldog Mack, Pushin’ time, bent axle bob, dieseline dreams. Major McQueen (his wife) could be an idea
Thumbs up 👍 knowing you’re equipment is saving your $ if you’re able to DIY 😊
Looks like a good looking truck for a auction find
Now you and man behinds the scenes are going to have to build a set of the famous dirt perfect stacks for it 😂
Very nice truck, DP. , CLINT @ C&C Equipment Found you. You and Clint have become good friends over the last few years, and I can't wait to see you put your and MBS STACKS on the truck , and the truck starts making you some money . Go to spend money to make money. You and your family and crew have a wonderful and bless week.
Nice!!! Great video! You and Man behind the scenes need to put some DP design exhaust pipes on it.
Perfect explanation on the two dump trucks!!
Thanx Mike for explaining about Lt. Dan. I will get off your back about it and realize that someday before I die (I hope) we will see it done and hauling at least one load. Business is business.
Lol thanks
Gonna look great with the infamous twin stacks.
Don't forget to get that fire extinguisher current.
Now it needs some green paint and custom signature DP stacks. 😀
Happy ST George's Day. From an old Englishman.
