You need to talk willie into doing a youtube channel, he explaines everything in digestible pieces and you kinda running him thru the basics he would be set.
Completely agree! I thought Willie's explanation was easy to understand!
Yeah mate that's so true.
I wish I had 1/3 of the knowledge of Diesel trucks that Willie has. Maybe it is true things are bigger inTexas 🇨🇱 knowledge about Diesel trucks! 👍 🇺🇸
exactly what i was thinking, even if you dont know a thing about it he's fun to listen to
“Welcome to Willie Wednesday here on Demolition Wrench...”
Basically, Matt hangs out at the shop and shoots a video while Willie works and chats.
If Willie doesn't have a RUclips channel he needs to. He is so knowledgeable and articulate.
Seriously, I know nothing about trucks but I think I could watch Willie work/talk about trucks all day!
@@alexwhiteman2628 no need to be disrespectful, hes just impressed.
@@alexwhiteman2628 I can assure you that not all diesel professionals are that good. I know a few that fuck up everything they touch and I'm impressed they still have business. Same with any profession.
@@alexwhiteman2628 plenty of "professionals" that know stuff all, you'd know this if you'd get out of the yt comment section lol
@@alexwhiteman2628 If they are good enough to have impressed Mark, then they've got a exceptional rating with me. 🤘😑
Matt, you should have yourself and the family sign a stud in the mansion before it gets sheet rocked.
Inside front door jamb. That or the header just above the front door.
Always put my signature when building houses
See how long it lasts
Signed demolitia t shirt behind the sheet.
Or a one time height chart on the sheet rock behind the fridge
I always sign above the entry door when remodeling or building...my great uncle was a builder from WW1 till late 40s..he always put a silver dollar of the current year under the front door threshold...I do the same with a dollar coin when building or replacing a entry door
Willie is a natural on camera he needs his own channel.
Totally agree with you, that dude Willie does need his own channel.
WILLY: "says some very technical mechanical stuff"
MATT: coo' l
haha and Matt was talking with a deeper voice.
Willie needs a channel of his own..I almost went out and bought a dodge just to bring it down for him to work on and explain all that to me in person...I'm impressed
Agree Willie knows is stuff.
Willie really knows what he’s talking about
does he have a youtube channel? speak easy
Ik I felt like I went to automotive school
I would hope so lol
he just inspired me to do diesel work
@Joshua Bullock He kind of is to a degree. He's the shop owner so his job is to sell things to you then put them on your truck lol
You can really tell how much Willie loves his job just how good he talked about what they fixed and how exited he was
This video was really fun to watch because of it too. He should start a RUclips channel. I'd subscribe.
RUclips channel.for sure
Definitely needs a channel
“Super Super Stout”
You gotta be one tough SOB to go through life with a name like Willie holden
“The hum v engine leaves a lot to be desired” - every soldier ever 😂
Thats why the uk never bought any lol.
Great mean looking machines but not very effective or reliable... we will just stick with snatch land rovers theyre awesome.
Not this soldier. Got me through some hairy shit.
Willie: This is basically unbreakable.
Matt: Challenge accepted!
@whistlindiesel
Can it be broken with a .50 cal?
hOw MaNy DoEs It TaKe To StOp A .50 cAl?
I am not a truck guy, but damn that was interesting and fun to watch. Hella informative.
A good teacher is the most important thing for learning
Willie needs a channel, he’s good on camera explains everything with just enough detail, and is just enjoyable to listen to
Very much agreed
This upgrade should be called “not f**ing around” package, for every guy who wants a truck that will last
Hey us gals too. Shop was one of my classes in high school. My sophomore year we rebuilt an '81 Blazer and a '79 Dodge D/W. My cousin is still driving the Blazer and our teacher still has the Dodge. Both still purr like kittens even 50 years later.
Except the dodge part 😂😂
@@mcrchickenluvr That's so amazing their still purring like kittens even 50 years later .
Yeah and stay away from Chevrolet
@@codynichols411 you spelt Ford wrong
Not only does Willie know his stuff, he speaks without stumbling over a word.
Matt: Humvee starts every time
Me: Didn't you make about a dozen videos of you fixing the Humvee because it wouldn't start?
When it isn't broken, it does. I've seen brand new vehicles, with quality parts, not start every single time.
Now, now, I think it was just the one, installing a new ground harness. It was the top most likely cause, and did indeed fix the issue first try. He did show it not start in the video before getting and installing the harness, so I guess you can call it two if you like.
Would not start because of Battery issues not because of reliability issues. 🙄🙄🙄
mordy g I had the same thought
You need airbags on the back for hauling big loads. Company called air lift it’s a pretty cheap kit they make them for any truck and trust me it’s worth it
Airbags are a MUST if you're towing heavy loads. Especially in a Dodge that's main purpose is to tow
We have 4 diesels tow heavyvloafs constantly and have no airbags
The only thing airbags do is level the truck. They don’t increase the load capacity at all.
Beefier leaf springs would do the trick. The Mack I hauled water with only had steel springs
Kinda want to see the front part of Earl in black too. Then it’s almost like a SWAT truck.
I think that's what he hinted to when he said "there's one other big thing we're gonna do with Earl". around 20:07
Probably going to do a wrap of some sort.
#zerowaste that’s what I was thinking! I think it’d look bangin painted all black!
It looks sooooooo cooooooool!!!!!!
Matt black
I'd lean to sticking with the factory grey...a all black work truck in a Texas summer ?...anything in that box is going to be smoked
All ol' Earl needs now is a nice wrap to make the truck and bed match and he'll be all good to go. Love that truck more and more for every update we get.
I love the fact that the guys at Holden Bros Diesel were listening to Hotel California
That shop has some good music playing, when he first walks in Hotel California is playing, then Thunderstruck
Willie Holden’s parents must have been quite the jokesters lol
This guy knows his stuff i need mechanic like that in my life
Sounds like earl is getting a good makeover. Smart going with the manual lock in hubs.
Wow Willie is awesome !!!! He could explain anything. What a quick mind.
"this thing is basicly unbreakable"
matt: "how many joints does it take to stop a 50 cal?"
My thought too
Hell yes
i’d say only one actually
Willie is like a Mark from another mother n his knowledge of diesel Passion is Incredible!! Speaking another language!! WOW!!
Gail H. Kuba I miss Mark Cariker too
Impressed with how much Willie knows. Good mechanic and seems honest.
Just a thought. My brother is a rancher up in Montana (I am in Wyoming) and his front "bumper" is a legitimate cow catcher with a large enough compartment front and center for his tire chains. That makes them easy to get to (a little less than waste high) and keeps them in their own compartment and out of the stuff you have in the other compartments.
Good luck and have fun.
Videos with earl are the best
Needs a set of Firestone Air Bags on the rear axle so when you're trailering, the chance of squat and tire rub drops to zero.
Extended shackles are actually pretty dangerous. They can flip under load and invert your springs, which is why they're illegal in Australia. He would have been better off putting a few extra leafs in the pack and an airbag..... More work, more expensive. But heaps safer
Holy cow, Willie knows his stuff. He seems too young to know all these things! Earl is in good hands!
I love it . But Mere is gonna wrap it in pink when she gets the parts bill 🤣🤣
nah....sponsor plug & youtube took care of that
Way! Better than the plain old flatbed! This bed is so much more user friendly. Nice truck! I have a 2003 Cummins crewcab dually with a 8 ft. bed. Trans valvebody from BD diesel. And tuned by Smarty!
I just stumbled acrossed this channel and it appears to be...people watching this fella be rich... and he is probably (partly) rich because so many people watch him....which I love. Good job guy.
I'm jealous of earl, he's got it made. Don't sweat the tires, right tools for the job
Does Earl deserve his own tee-shirt, just saying.
Make it happen!!!! Totally need Earl once he’s finished on a tshirt.
Jack Mutschlechner you’re asking, not telling
Matt, good to see you working on the Cummins again. 👍🏻
Have them put a Cummins in the Humvee. 👍🏻
a Hummins , not a bad idea lol
Automotive Dynamics A Cummins is always the best option. 👍🏻
That's one heck of a truck now. Loven it. I had no clue what Willie was talking about but he sure knows his stuff.
44s Matt! Gotta be part of that 44 Club dude! The Australian boys would be proud!!!
The Broncos is the perfect vehicle for that.
"So much room for activities"
~ Step Brothers
If your towing allot with earl I would leave it at 35s.
The only thing missing is a winch
Needs a roof rack
I’m more than positive that I tinted the windows on that blue and silver first gen. That truck is absolutely beautiful when put all together.
Yup, Earl is lookin' great and no doubt will run great for a long time. I was hoping that you would have given a glimpse of that sweet blue Ford that was in the shop.
"Most people say these are overkill" .. Matt "I will take it"
Willie sure knows his stuff ... Earl is really starting to shape up...
35" tires are perfect for everything. KEEP'EM!
Nothing is unbreakable when it’s on demo ranch!!
This guy is a serious talker and knowledge bank...knows his shit for sure
I really like how they have everything laid out and have a plan from start to finish. Unfortunately not every mechanic does it like that.
So he’s built for the end of the world. So by my calculations in the next 7 months.
Not very strong tbh
@@LucasTheBot 😂😂😂
Honestly the only way to make something last long is to keep it stock and do factory maintenance 🙈
take into account that any car built to survive the end of the world will actually only be built to survive the first 8 to 12 months. Both traditional fuel and diesel expire and without production there will be no new fuel to use for your vehicle. 8 to 12 months is even a very conservative number if everything were to go right and we were lucky as fuck
@@TerraRose #electric 😉
I really liked the whole explanation for the truck, a lot of info I was hoping to get. Maybe do some more trucks with willi of work on some truck with him in his shop. Love your vids keep it up!
He a beast, Earl don't need cute, he is a "get 'er done " truck.! 👍🏻
the most fun is filling all those tool boxes on that bed !
My son has a 2500 dodge Cummins and he loves it, his Dad was a Ford truck man for years until my son got his. Now his Dad has a 2500 Cummins
If I remember correctly the Humvee went through development and funding hell. It would be cool to see a basic issue Humvee unencumbered by all that, all buttoned up and ship shape, as it was intended
Keep the tires, nice upgrades, but most importantly: HECK YES TO THE FIRST GEN CUMMINS BUILD!
Matt: does this thing roll coal?
Willie: uhhhh yeahhh( thinking to himself man I hope the EPA doesn’t hit me up for this)
Kind of what I was thinking.
Only time will...is Matt big enough that they would make an example out of him? I sure wouldn't risk the ability to buy new toys for Demo Ranch on a deleted truck....may never happen...but what if?
Diesel brothers....lol
Would have been nice if they would have set Matt straight that rolling coal is for Dbags...
Noticed the flatbed on Earl is set up for a second fuel tank. You might want to look into making use of it by installing one. Also get locking fuel caps. However, if someone siphons it, thinking they're getting gas, would be in for a big surprise.
I also suggest some retractable truck steps by AMP. It will help Mere and the kids get into the truck. They drop down when you open the door(s) and fold up when you close them. Don't hurt the ground clearance in any way when you're on the move.
"So, what are we doing today, Willie?"
If I had a dollar for everytime I've asked that same question...🤔😏
Quick Warning: the bed is going to get really really hot, black metal + Texas sun = Pain
When a Cop pulls him over its going to smell like Bacon.
I can only imagine how hot it will get mines white with chrome door laches on the utility bed, have gloves handy.
This mans all about that STOUT
Willie: Designed to last only through the warranty cycle.
Me: Ram designed Planned Obsolescence.
It's not planned obsolescence. It is called cost-cutting.
@@williameldridge9382 You say potato, I say poor engineering.
@@chris31795 you say poor engineering, I say bean counters have more power then they should in design decisions.
All manufacturers do it..
@@BigBodySmallBrain 100% correct!
the inner sheet metal inside your truck toolbox door is called a diaphragm, and gives the door rigidity like tubing to feel solid and stiff. Sheetrock does the same thing for a studded wall.
That dude got me looking up diesel parts and I don't even own a truck.
😂😂😂
Man can i get yall to like his vid just for that editing at the end frickin fire dude
Willie has to take part on the BRONCO 💯💪 who agrees ?
Have him on a wrench episode doing his stuff
Bronco should stay Gasoline in my opinion.
35's are already huge, leave them like that.
Earl is a sick truck! Can't wait to see it pull some loads.
Earl 2.0 !!!!!!!!!!! Awesome upgrades , Matt
When they were talking about the old 6.4 I laughed because in the diesel world the 6.4 makes the 6.0 power stroke look like a good engine
Need that 7.3.
"Some say these new studs are overkill, but we like that part." Oh, yeah, Matt is all about overkill!! LOL!
Leave the 35's on Earl... put the 44's on the HumVee!
44s on Bronco
Matt, those panels on the doors are to keep tools from sliding into the door and denting it. Without it, your bed would look like monkey bread in a few months. Lol
Earl is smiling!! Nice!!!!
Okay, can we just appreciate how nice of a edit it was when earl went from the pasture to the mansion. Watched about 5 times and im still amazed
I really like willy he seems like such a cool guy imo
Smirked a lil' bit when he talked about doing more stuff with Earl. I'm guessing either a turbo/injector upgrade or a wrap?
Yea, he did say more "utility items" too though. Maybe more work lights up front, a winch, and some rear airbags for towing?
@@justin7080 I'm thinkin' a smallish light bar and some fog lights. Maybe a winch too.
Wehrli Fab stuff going on, perhaps?
www.wcfab.com
Bunker Branding wrap should definitely be in the works
I love this stuff. Not necessarily hot rodding, tight tolerance stuff - just good engineering :)
This guy knows what he’s talking about. Holden bro’s sounds like a great place
Love Earl. So cool dude 😎 I was not liking it when you took off the old flat bed. But when I saw what it looked like with the new one(and I realized that you weren’t going to put on a normal bed)I loved it. Nice 👍🏼
Gen 1 needs to happen in the future, full one of a kind build to start a whole new Demo wrench. Would be cool after the bronco? Just a thought.
Earl: 35s, Bronco: Giant crazy stupid
40's my guy
Willie: Chrome Molly, basically indestructible. Matt: Hang on, LINCOLN! Come here!
That truck is a beast now, it will get pass a million miles with no issues like so many. I love it !
Give this man a RUclips channel. Not a big car guy but this guy makes it interesting
Matt: builds first gen Cummins two weeks later trans failure
That front end 4x4 conversion is just like how ford has it stock
FishFind3000 I was noticing that.....since I have 3 Fords....and am quite familiar with replacing axle seals. 🙄😁
2013 Ram 3500's and newer and 2014 Ram 2500's and newer also have the front axle disconnect stock.
Hey Matt with the abandoned mansion and the tiles you salvaged in the last video i may know the guy who did then and he can do more
Would you like him to get in touch??
Never been a fan of Rams but this is a real work truck and it looks awesome. Nice truck
Awesome build keep the 35s and spray the top of the bed with bed liner to keep the paint from chipping off when you use it and you wont have a rust problem.
Matt "Mere you not going to believe how many ideas I have after working on Earl."
Mere "You are not allowed out alone, ever again!"
35" for Earl, that will keep everything very usable. I'm guessing a good heavy duty Warn on the front bumper. Is the cab area getting paint to match the bed or are you doing a total repaint?
So the humvee is getting a duramax swap then right?!
Keep Earl clean and reliable. Go crazy on the Bronco. Edit: Agree completely with you post 19:00.
EAARRLLL!! I told you you wouldn't regret getting Earl I love my 2015 Ram !!
Did anyone hear the “Eye of the Tiger” song at 10:28 with the impact?
Hah yea
I was to focussed on ACDC's thunderstruck playing but now I've gone back and had a listen, hell yeah good pick up.
You can hear Hotel California by the Eagles at 2:12
Next video: Wil the truckbed door stop a 50cal.
Willie knows so much I’m starting to think he made the willy’s jeeps
Not too mechanics impress me, Willie is a very good mechanic just listening to his presentation tells me he knows what he’s talking about.👍🏻👍🏻
I like this version of Earl a whole bunch.
