Wow, speechless! ........and I was thinking I was bada$$ driving a 12/71 Detroit Diesel with a 5 and 4 hauling aggregates back in the 80s! Well done Sir!
This truck is soo sick... but tbh, I'm not a fan of the super high smoke stacks... looks like putting obnoxious ape hangers on a siiiick old-school Indian or Harley... To each his own.. I agree. Some of the stuff I do on my builds - other people don't like, but it's mine.. so I build it my way. Lol ❤️
Been around trucks all my life, my hobby while I drove the lower 48 was to photograph older working trucks , yours is in the top 5 hands down, that's out of close to 3500 photos , Missouri has some wild rides , top shelf brah !!
The first truck I drove was a 1970 Diamond Reo...the next was a Kenworth..love the ol Diamonds but Kenworth is my favorite..and this is ...im thinking hard but I do believe this. In my opinion is the most badass looking one ive seen..One Sweet Ride It Is!!!
Hi been chasing one of these cab and hoods for years hear in Australia to build one of these for a private tow truck are these body's easy to find in the USA?
Yep it’s pretty but does it haul. Like I tell my wife every time I see one of those squatting trucks “ mine squats to but when it’s working with a load in the back. Ok you say it’s a hauler hope to see it on the road
I'm really curious is how you were dynoing an 18-wheeler are you running a split gear gearbox like the old schools is got a new automatic transmission in it I know when running a Dyno for a regular street car you're usually in either second gear on something like a two-speed Dyna Glide you'd be in third on a four-speed and on a 5-speed you'd be in fourth whichever one is connecting one to one on the transmission I'm very curious as to what gear that thing was running in when y'all done it
If you are looking to turbo your low rider then check out JD Paydirt's channel as he pulled some standard turbos out of his Old Kenny and a dozer and some other heavy equipment and swapped them for the more responsive Switchblade Turbochargers. Totally eliminated turbo lag and gave a wider power band. Jeff has various videos on doing the changeover on the different vehicles. Check him out, and then ask him about his Switchblade Turbos. Hope that this helps. Mark from Melbourne Australia
How does it pull 20 tons on a tow ball rather than I turntable? In the photos I see a standard towball, these are generally rated to 3.5tons, 5 at the most.
Hell Yeah your 48 Kenworth sounds really good and clean bro My dream is to buy a old Kenworth or Peterbuilt🌾🤘🏻Also I love that you actually use it for work/towing.
That Kenworth is beautiful man
YES SIR!!! lets! Go!!!! 1320! Baby!
let’s go!!!!

Hi been chasing one of these cab and hoods for years hear in Australia to build one of these for a private tow truck are these body's easy to find in the USA?
That would be my daily driver, but I'd have to have a common rail 5.9 or 6.7 deleted with 2nd gen manifold to get that 12v tone😊❤
Im completely in love with the truck. Would you be able to tell me what rears are in it
Yep it’s pretty but does it haul. Like I tell my wife every time I see one of those squatting trucks “ mine squats to but when it’s working with a load in the back. Ok you say it’s a hauler hope to see it on the road
will pull 40000lbs of tongue weight
That’s sick 😎
Hard af! 🚛
thanks bro

it’s a 411 gear rear axle is a tag axle it’s a 12 valve with a 5 speed
Our country have some messed up rodes and highways... You a bad man to put your truck on them 🤠

it doesn’t however the suspension is rated for it I pull my custom gooseneck and 2 race cars
Sweet rig!

Appreciate it!!
@@StickShiftRacing No Problem Man. I’ve been a semi guy and Older Trucks Guy since I was 3 and I hope to own a semi One of these days.🤘🏻
@@ryankysar3562 get one!!!!
So, what’s up with the truck? Did you end up doin anything? Or did you get too busy? Anything content worthy?
Clean ass build.
What was the torque number?
550
Nice 👍🏾👍🏾🏆🏆
This is sick as fuck. I need a semi.stat
yes!!!!!! what would you get???
I’m really glad it’s not just my kid who feels the need to hit me and interrupt me when I’m taking 😂
Are both rear differential’s functional or ones just a tagalong?
Love the old school hondas over there....
Awesome ride.
Jus for show its awesome
thanks bro
The truck is amazing. Congrats on building such a cool ride. I wanted to ask about the rear suspension. Is it a 2 link with a watts link on each axle?
yup 2 link with watts on both
Environment? What environment?
😂
SWEET RIG...
Great looking large car. One of the nicest I have ever seen.
thanks bro
Reminds me of a road king with ape hangers
Sick rig 👌🏼 is this the same yellow patina one that’s been on TH-cam?
No 2 different trucks!!!
Nice there both sick, y’all need to video them together lol
He's actually TALLER than the truck! Damn!
😂
Magnifique ou puis-je acheter un mini camion comme celui-ci cordialement merci
Bring on the speed bumps! Why anyone wants a vehicle 1inch off the ground is beyond me. Oh well, different strokes and all that jazz.
I'm sure it's on air ride I'm sure he hits a switch and it will jump up to about a foot off the ground if you wanted it to
it’s on air it goes up
would you ever consider selling it?
That's the baddest semi
💥NIce💥
Im retired now. Id drive that Badd Ride everywhere I went!!!😊
I would’ve put a big cam 350 in it. But that’s me
lol! Bitchin ride, bro.
Nice
Sweet
Beware of bumps.
no doubt
Where u from? There is one very similar to this where I live.
Clarksville Tn
need to drop a stock Cummins X15 (605hp) or a PACCAR MX-13 (510 hp) and then mod it. Beautiful truck!!!
Not a California truck I see 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Nice truck though
Yellow one from Scottsdale is still cleaner nice try tho
damnnnnnn a little bit of hate huh … I know tanner and I know the truck
There's always at least one hater in every crowd. If you ain't got anything but hate, to spread. For real though.
@@jasonbacus7083 wawawa im such a hater 🥹 🤣
Yellow ones an auto so it’s not a real truck
Put a N14 Cummins in it
that’d be nuts
I think I’m going to build a custom semi as a daily driver instead of a car. 🤷🏼♂️
Alright alright alright alright ain't no Ford ranger tho
😱🤩😍🥰🥰🥰❤️🔥🔥🦾🫡🫡🫡🇺🇸🇵🇷🇺🇸 beeeaaaauuuuutyful
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
🩵🩵🩵
No smoke means more power!
But why?
It's dope but it doesn't look like it hauls a dam thing, which is kinda pointless.
No 5th wheel smh
Really bruh???? That truck can’t haul nothing! Really………😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sslut sa roule wow nice baby worth mmmm greyt jobs mmm wow outlaw truck mmm
