Mechanical Misadventures
Австралия
Добавлен 31 окт 2018
G'day, I'm Tyler! I'm a OPE mechanic, with what most of the population would consider a sickness. I've just got to be tinkering with something, and always have from a young age. Whether its cars, bikes, boats, mowers, guns, knives or the neighbors clock radio, i must pull it apart. Putting it back together is another story entirely...
I'm sure there are other like minded folk out there with the same issue, so if that sounds like you, follow along and see where this takes you!

And dylan for being my stunt double driving the car while im behind the lens! Music : DJ Quads ruclips.net/video/ZNadyNG6U-s/видео.html Lakey Inspired ruclips.net/channel...

We are heading up the coast next weekend for some beach hangs, and need to make sure the beers will stay cold enough. Installing a Redarc SBI 12 should make sure that isn't an issue. Big thanks to Tristan for hooking a brother up with this unit. Cheers mate! Consider subscribing, and clicking the bell icon for notifications when new videos are posted!

The old luv needed a make over. So ill run you through briefly whats been done thus far, and get cracking on a few important pieces to the puzzle! Spoiler, I've already fitted the engine... Apologies the audio is all over the place, ill sort it out on the next one!

I love Aussie engineering
You put that steering wheel on the other side where it belongs.
😂😂😂 Ill get right onto it mate! Ill do a 27 part series over the next 5 years on how to do a left hand drive conversion. Thanks for watching🤙🏼
Subd. Do you have to run an intercooler if you've got a giant airspace under the hood like in a 73 Chevelle?
Without knowing your setup mate, i can’t really give you much advice on what you’ll need. But what i can tell you is that a turbo charger compresses air, and when air is compressed the temperature increases. In order to maximise the benefits of turbo charging it’s important to cool the air going into the engine. Thanks for your time mate🤙🏼🤙🏼
In the planning stage of this job for myself... thanks for the video, you're a legend. Helps so much when you can visualise things.
Curious to what gas tank you have?
I custom made the tank out of 3mm aluminium sheet. Couldn’t find one that fitted where I wanted it, at a price I could afford so I just made one🤷🏻♂️
No doubt, you are a bad ass! 😎
Nice Job on the Luv . Keep it up.
Nice job on the Turbo love the idea of more power Have fun and thanks for the great footage
It blew the head gasket from sitting so long I went to start it up last year to see how the battery was. and it started running but smoking really bad after about 10 min. That's my fault I should have cranked it over more often This Arizona desert Heat can be tough on an old car that never gets driven
dude, I have this truck 76 Chevy LUV. everyone keeps offering me money won't let it go it needs paint, radiator,altinator,head gasket,water pump,new suspension
👍💜
Chevy Luv Imported for Chevrolet And Built by Toyota
Close! Built by Isuzu👍👍👍
What podcast are you listening to?
The Blindboy podcast. A good listen👍
@@mechanicalmisadventures nice I’ll give it listen. I’m also a luv owner (x4)
Great job was wondering how much the build totalled?
Thanks mate. I think materials all up cost around $400
Great work except for that fuel filler neck. Yep, should of thought that one out better.
🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Well! Could you please tell me the size of your tubings ? And size of the 2 aloy U of chassis part please ? Nice build !
50x50 x 2mm for the main shape. I think it was 75x50x6mm for the u shape, and 25x25x2mm for the internal bits and pieces. Thanks mate👌
Great idea! What wall thickness were you using?
2mm from memory mate.
Good video mate, I enjoyed watching it
Hey man, have you done a brake upgrade?
Hey mate, Yes, the front brakes have been upgraded. Vs commodore master cylinder and calipers, and kun26 hilux rotors👍
@@mechanicalmisadventures awesome! I have a kb27 and want to upgrade the brakes and master. Do you have any content on that?
Nice! Where abouts are you located mate? No unfortunately, i did all that prior to filming any of these videos😔
@@mechanicalmisadventures im in brissy. Ahh damn, you could do a walkthrough 😁
Tip were to get parts for a Chevy luv dissel
Hot rig mate
Great video 👌
Great vid, keep it up bone
Awesome
I like this Truck of yours.. Say, when you're done with fixing it up and all.. I'd like nothing more than you letting me have it.. I promise to take good care of this old Chev LOV Truck..
Sure thing, its all yours!
Good video
Nice work, you are very skilled. I like the way you clipped and folded down the front valance to clear the intercooler.
💪😎
hey what radiator did you use? im in the middle of 4.3 swapping my LUV and its the last piece i need
Hey mate, its to suit a Holden Gemini. Came from ebay, was about $180 from memory. Required a fair bit of rad support chopping and welding to make it fit, nothing to hard though. Thanks for watching👌
Looks good, do you have enough of a gap at the head board to allow for flex?
Thanks mate. Not entirely sure what you mean? Like if the headboard vibrates/moves and touches the cab? If so, yes there's about 30mm between the two.👌
That thing looks nice 👍🏼
Excellent work 👍🏼
Good vid mate did you find out what was wrong with your tig because mine was doing the same
Thanks mate. Not exactly, apprently these machines have some circuit board that fails, and causes this issue. Havent got it fixed, just avoiding welding any more ally🤣
Good work!!!
Is an ATV too heavy for it???
I wouldnt reckon mate. Ive loaded it up with several hundred kg's of scrap before and it didnt break👍 its definetly not heavy duty though
Good job mate
Good stuff Mate
R u a Petrie local
Used to be a warner local, now living over sandgate way!
Haha Joyner local and just purchased a Chevy luv 1976 :p going for a full restore :( sadly same issue you have no tub just a tray.
Throw a rubber band onto your tripod arm and pull that for a smoother pan from right to left
Thats some bloody helpful info. Cheers homie!
Yes bone
You heard me
That wiring is . . . .sexy!
You're a brave man splicing wiring harnesses. 78 LUV owner here.
Took a bit to get my head around, but got there in the end. Thanks for watching mate👍👍
Just you alone
Good video mate!
Yeahhhhhhh skids!!!!!
Just for you big fella!
Hey mate... Stoked to see your stickin with it and chipping away at the project too. Keep it up mate ay!. But it's 4am just now, that is an odd time for youtube to wake me with it notifying of your upload. I think that's an awesome spot for the hinge on that little trap door, so your left with a smooth tray!. Looking forward to the next upload mate!.
Thanks for the support bloke👌 Yes, that is quite a rude time to be woken😂 Appreciate the comments mate, glad your enjoying the progress👍🍺
Get a haircut
