I really like the fact that you share all your work even when something goes wrong. It’s educational in that you also show how you fix a mistake. I have really enjoyed your videos and they are never long enough. I hit the play button to watch this one and it felt like the video was only five minutes long. Please keep showing everything, and thanks from New Hampshire.
George George, all by himself & 100% done right! If I was a DOT officer & seen him on the road I would say there is no reason to do an inspection on him because they wouldn’t find any infraction on his truck👍👍!!
I usually never laugh of someone but when that beam dropped, the very Peed-off look and total silence on your part made my day. I even felt a disturbance in the force. Thank you for your honesty and not editing it out. Peoples have to know and see what real life is.
New TwinStick AND Ezrider vids in the same day is like an eclipse of the sun. You love EZ's huck gun so much though, he's gonna have to drive up there to pry it out of your hands lol!
Ezra, you would have to be the most interesting & transparent truck-related RUclips channel around. The work ethic and skill level, without all the bullshit click bait/promos/ego/etc is fantastic to watch. Keep it up - This is going to be one tidy working truck!
The look of THOR holding his hammer as the beam drops is priceless! But through silent determination and personal struggles he succeeds what others have failed at..... Great videos!!
Love watching you and twin stick, you both should get together when you get the trucks done for a show and shine. Somewhere near the Canadian and US border. Keep up the great work.👍🏻
Well done bro. You are one determined, and productive individual. You certainly have earned my respect. Keep up the good work , and thanks for sharing it with us.
The stretch came out perfectly. You were very smart to have made the channel inserts as long as you did. With the extra forces from the pusher axle, it will give plenty of extra strength.
Last week my wife of 50+ years suffered a really serious stroke. Your videos give me a chance to be distracted and relax just a bit. Tell your loved ones that you love them - often. A life can change in a heart-beat. Really appreciate the videos Ezra.
I’m a bricklayer have been since sixteen years old. I like too think I’m a master in my trade. But I’d love to be able to do the engineering and mechanical work you do. We don’t have these lovely trucks in England 🏴 I’ve always wanted an American truck since I first watched a programme called moving on. When I was a small boy 👦. Ur a legend bro thanks for letting us all enjoy a master at work. Regards from south London England 🏴
Your the only one that messes up and doesn’t cover it up with editing to look like there’s no mistakes. I truthful admire your work and your honesty. Keep it up and keep the videos coming.
Problems you described are the reason we always pull the sleeper and tanks and add frame directly behind the cab.. When done you cant tell where we cut or added frame. But its our way.. Everybody has there own ideas. I found the extra work turns out beautiful craftsmanship. No extra holes in frame just one long solid rail.. Also it makes driveline work a breeze with tanks and sleeper off..
The look when the insert dropped out. Priceless! And not a swear word. You are a man of remarkable restraint! I would have been frickin' frack the frackin' frick!
You are a one man gang. All the work I've watching you do I have personally seen a team of MEN do. You are what every young man should want to grow up to be like.
Looks good stretched.. All trucks look good stretched... The look on your face priceless... If I didn’t live in western Pa. I would come over and help.. a extra set of hands go along way.....
You are an absolute beaver on this stuff! If you haul like you work, nobody will ever see you after you pull off the scales and you BOING at wherever you're hauling to. Everywhere in between there'll just be a dust whirlwind and that's IT! You also did good keeping everything clean when it got goofy. THANKS! She's a baby doll all right. You'll be riding and gliding before ling with the BIG grin going. Thanks, Ezra! A-PLUS!
You are an extremely talented tradesmen to take on that type of work on your own is a credit to your work ethic, I only wish the next generation had half the endeavour that you do, to get that job done in a commercial shop would take two or three people, I hope you get to pass on your knowledge to a young fella out there we need more people like you. It’s a pleasure to watch your videos , cant wait to see the install of the pusher axel
Great thing about a mag drill is that your wrists won't get broken from a drill bit grabbing. Saves fatigue from pushing on the drill also. That truck is coming together well.
That is exactly how one should do a frame. Great job love the fact that every thing is painted and greased up. Take notes if you want a frame done right then this is how it is DONE!!!!.....
I wish I had a small amount of your self control. After the second time that insert fell, I would have been shouting up a storm and maybe even throwing stuff. You, on the other hand, just looked at the camera as if to say, "That figures", and then got back to work. Very impressive!
@@Ezrider359 I could tell and sure wished I could've been there. I know they had to slide straight in and that was not going to be easy. You did GOOD all the way around and the looks on some of it I could mirror with EASE at some points in my deals. The grease was a FINE addition too. A-PLUS!
@@Ezrider359 - You definitely looked a bit frazzled! I understand about needing a second set of hands around. Wish I lived close enough to offer a hand, but I think that there are at least a couple of miles between you and I (couple thousand more like). Kudos for all the good work, and kudos for keeping us along for the ride. It's all appreciated, sir!
That is an excellent idea to put the grease between the frame inserts to prevent rust jacking. Great job on the truck, I do all my work by myself as well on small and big trucks.
I have been watching for a while now. Let me say how impressed I am of your ambition and steadfastness. All this work, done by yourself, is a testimate to how a person can and should be. Keep it up!
Awesome video , Sometimes things are painful but you stayed the distance and got it done . You are the best and your work is amazing . I only wish I had a part of your skill level . I am in Hawaii and I bought a 72 double framed W900 . It has frame jacking and I bought it thinking I will end up doing something similar , but the room it takes , the equipment involved and the man hours is tremendous . I have a lot of respect for you . Then doing a video , that's overwhelming . I honestly don't know how you do it . Nothing short of amazing . Thank you so much for sharing your trade and skill .
Hey brother I have seen that look in our face when trying to place those liners in, boy that has been the look on my face several time, but way to be resourceful and weld those holes. Man your my hero way to keep calm bubba
Truck is coming together nicely! The Mack is gonna get jealous once you hook the 359 up and it hauls it's first money making load! The bolt hole layout mistake sucks, but if that's the biggest setback in the whole project things are still going good! At least it was just a frame stretch. I re-railed a truck once and the shop wouldn't pay for pre-punched rails so we drilled all of them. Problem was I did one side and had to go on a service call, get back the next day and someone "helped" and drilled the other side and.......the entire rail was off a couple inches!
Helpful, informative, quality work! It appears to me that you used anti-seize on the input shaft of the rear end. One day the drum bearings on my clothes dryer were squeaking. The only lubricant I had at home was anti-seize, which I used for lubricating the bearings. The dryer again started squeaking in less than a week. I took apart the dryer again and used a different lubricant. The dryer then lasted for years with no squeaks!
Luckely you didn’t throw the hamer trough de workshop, you where thinking about that at the look of your face😉 great job and a lot of respect for your knowledge and work! 👌👌
G’day boy that was heavy work and on your own that drilling machine is really worth it, I think your a bloody marvel especially when you consider your on your own and you could see those “C” sections are bloody heavy, but you know what your doing and it shows. Old Red is really changing and I always look forward to getting your videos I find what your doing is very interesting we’ll be careful kind regards John
Man I'm glad you show some of patience testing tasks I've had that look on my face more than once ,super impressed on your dedication and persistence to your work thanks for sharing the helpful hints I'm definitely will be using some of your tricks in my own projects 👍👍👍👍
Nice job man, it's going to be a cool ride. There are a few things i would do to make it perfect, take off the air wipers and melt them down so no one else will have to suffer. I would also move the mirrors off the doors to the cab, and think about changing to a 1994 60 series so i could have cruise.
the last truck i had with air wipers never gave me any issues and i didn't mind them at all. now that one of the switches is leaking i kinda wish i would have done the electric wipers when i replaced the one motor. oh well.
The truck coming along awesome can't wait to see it completely done I find your videos very informative and helpful because you answer all questions I feel I can do the same someday to my future truck I save all your videos for future reference
Brother your doing a good job just keep taking your time and stay steady after it and i'll be dip in peanut butter and we will see you sitting behind a dang good looking ride thank you for your time and consideration of we the fan watchers are what ever you want to call us later.
When you dropped the channel insert the second time the look on your face cracked me up. No need for profanity here, your expressions tell the tale!!! Beautiful work as always!!
Still bad azz😎 the joy of needing a second pair of helping hands. I've (lost) a few mag drills over the years I hope the new owner's got as much use as I did lol. The joy of layouts if ones off!! Great content looking forward to the pusher axle install great work
Looking good! Bummer on that cross-member deal but good job on rectifying that problem. You got your hands full working by yourself and running the cameras and all. Nice work!
I AM 58 years old but when i grow up I want to be like you.
🤣🤣👍
@@Ezrider359 I'm way too old but I can sure admire you!

Thank you
Ezrider92356 your welcome.
This is got to be the most productive man I ever watching in the trucking business.
😆
This man makes things happen.
George George, all by himself & 100% done right! If I was a DOT officer & seen him on the road I would say there is no reason to do an inspection on him because they wouldn’t find any infraction on his truck👍👍!!
I said the same 😂💯💯💯💯
Takes a special person to do things like this. You are an inspiration bro.
Amen to that. I’m lost throughout this video but it’s so damn interesting.
Nice video dude. Anytime a man shows his mishaps and difficulties encountered, he's honest and has my respect and admiration.
The look on your face when the "C" channel drops is priceless. I giggle every time I see it.
I usually never laugh of someone but when that beam dropped, the very Peed-off look and total silence on your part made my day. I even felt a disturbance in the force. Thank you for your honesty and not editing it out. Peoples have to know and see what real life is.
Nothing more rewarding than doing it all yourself ... excellent work 👊
for sure 👍
New TwinStick AND Ezrider vids in the same day is like an eclipse of the sun. You love EZ's huck gun so much though, he's gonna have to drive up there to pry it out of your hands lol!
I'd say when y'all are finally done with the trucks you both take a load and run together on at least one trip!
admire your honesty and to admit a mistake..and some of your facial expressions putting in the slippery liners was hilarious...great video..
I'm sorry but I had to laugh when Ezra made that face after dropping the liner.
It does separate his videos from other builds.
Very Talented and hardworking brother. The world needs more people like you. You're awesome!
U do really good work alone man show I can say you know your stuff and u Make it look very easy
I hope the younger generation is watching they can see what work is great job keep up the good work
I know the frame had to hurt I was hit in the head with hook from garbage truck
I was going to leave a comment but all the previous entries have spoken for me with the exception of l can’t believe you did this all by yourself!!! 🎉
Experts are not perfect. They know how to correct their mistakes. That is what makes them seem perfect. Carry on, you're doing a dang good job.
Ezra, you would have to be the most interesting & transparent truck-related RUclips channel around. The work ethic and skill level, without all the bullshit click bait/promos/ego/etc is fantastic to watch. Keep it up - This is going to be one tidy working truck!

I have been there soooooo many times.
Love watching you and twin stick, you both should get together when you get the trucks done for a show and shine. Somewhere near the Canadian and US border. Keep up the great work.👍🏻
Randy Hale Add Bubbles 8V92 and ol2stroker to the mix too. I’m watching all four of these 359 restorations.

You are a one man gang. All the work I've watching you do I have personally seen a team of MEN do. You are what every young man should want to grow up to be like.
You got the patience of a saint .not many could do what you do it’s awsome
Looks good stretched..
All trucks look good stretched...
The look on your face priceless...
If I didn’t live in western Pa. I would come over and help.. a extra set of hands go along way.....

Love the fact that your honest about your mistakes and that your an excellent welder and able to fix those mistakes.
A setback is never a setback if it can be fixed without too much of an issue. I see it as a learning experience
Thanks for the awesome videos. . Be safe out there and KEEP TRUCKIN.
Nashville, Tennessee
Have to admire your level of patience putting the liners in with grease on your hands
6:00 😂. We’ve all been in that situation. You’re attention to detail is impressive Great video
That look on your face when you drop the beam, I was waiting for you to go on a Trevor RAGE mode lol.
Love the hard work keep it up.

Amazing how you can take a truck that's been sitting awhile and restore it to a master piece. Great job. Thanks for the upload
Hello from Scotland Ezra.she is looking good.keep up the good work 😀🏴
Great thing about a mag drill is that your wrists won't get broken from a drill bit grabbing. Saves fatigue from pushing on the drill also. That truck is coming together well.
It was a long week waiting on your next video.keep up the good work
Thank you
@@Ezrider359 will the 3rd axle be a dual wheel or single like the mack?
Absolutely terrific work. Really inspiring to see a master craftsman and technician at work. Thank you for sharing the videos.
You deserve your own tv show, this is getting good. I love your approach on working on the truck.
That is exactly how one should do a frame. Great job love the fact that every thing is painted and greased up. Take notes if you want a frame done right then this is how it is DONE!!!!.....
Wish he would have showed how he measured the drive shaft and set the second carrier bearing
Looking great Ezra , frame work is always fun stuff , drilling holes etc , time consuming . Keep up the good work👍🏽
yeah easily double if not tripple the time in this video than the last video even though it seems like more was done in the last video.
I wish I had a small amount of your self control. After the second time that insert fell, I would have been shouting up a storm and maybe even throwing stuff. You, on the other hand, just looked at the camera as if to say, "That figures", and then got back to work. Very impressive!

I've never seen one of those drills. That drill is awesome. These videos on the rebuild are great. Love them.
that drill is awesome for jobs like that.
Ezra you are a MACHINE!!!!! Thats one hell of allot of hard work and you pulled it off like pass the salt..lol RESPECT BRO!!!
I’m assuming you are doing all this work alone. What dedication you’re showing us. And during winter also. My hats off to you Sir.
Dude. You make it all look so easy. I really love to see you work. Nice job
Ik film make everything way harder but I have to say thank you for doing it! Following along makes me want to start my own projects!

Your face after putting in that first rail was priceless. Looks awesome
Yes your right , get them all together . And no trailer queen truck.👍🏻
Great Video, the extending of the frame came out really good. Thank you and I look forward to your upcoming videos.

Well even with a goof up great video keep them coming
You accomplished that stretch flawlessly, "GREAT JOB"
thank you
Well the first liner installation was more entertaining to watch, LOL You seemed to be nonchalant when you cut a perfectly good truck in half.
I wait all week to see your next video. You Sir are very good at what you do. Keep the videos coming. Thank you
Have to say, this has become one of my fav channels 👍👍👍👍 good work👍👍👍👍👊👊👊👊👊

Excellent work and thanks for your channel.
Taking shape now , you must be very happy with the progress , it’s looks amazing now , well done my friend
Back in the 80s I put two self loader’s on log trucks, No mag drill back then and I can’t say I miss those times I have 2 mag drills now.
Yeah the thought of doing that with a hand drill sends shivers down my spine....lol
Brother your doing a good job just keep taking your time and stay steady after it and i'll be dip in peanut butter and we will see you sitting behind a dang good looking ride thank you for your time and consideration of we the fan watchers are what ever you want to call us later.
Anyone notice when he came back with no hat on???? Yea that fkr is somewhere across the shop along with a few tools lmao nice work buddy
