- It is important to remind people that I have absolutely no idea what i'm doing, and we are making this up as we go. the results show that. Today i'm welding up the exhaust to come out the back of the ford 460 engine and getting the cab swap finished up. hope you enjoy!

Got the bracket on the right side of the weld, I know we’ve all been there…!! 😂😂😂. Priceless truth.
The most underrated channel on RUclips
Mike, I am confused? I am retired and spend most days watching You Tube Videos, and I am completely entertained every time I watch your channel. I watch some channels with over a million subscribers, I am confused why your channel hasn't taken off. Thank you for your videos.
It is about to. He'll be 120k subs by christmas 2024.
“Cross threading is natures lock tight”…….brilliant insight right there, yep, brilliant.
Mike your self peptalks are absolutely outstanding and inspiring.
Refreshing to see a man take the time to sand and paint everything. Most you tubers just throw things together. I always paint everything myself. Great job
Awesome, the cab is on the frame . This is so exciting! I can hardly wait until the next video! 😊
"Cross threading is nature's Loctite" I'm going to have to remember that. Lol. Have a great day.
Glad to see this truck getting closer to the finish line! Should last you for years to come.
"Cross-threading is Nature's Loctite"
You wanna know how I know that wrench 🔧 to face hurt.......... Your calm yet menacing expression ........Been to that dark corner of the brain myself
Love the new mustache 😂!
🤣
Mike, you have more fortitude than anyone I know. It is as much pleasure watching your videos as it is wishing on my part that I could be there helping you. Thank you for taking us along sir.
Cross threading is natures locktight. I gotta use that one 🤣
5:10 liquifying wrench (chuckle). Thank you for sharing
“Cross-threading is natures Loc-tite.” So many good nuggets of wisdom! I love it! 😂
Vevor has an exhaust pipe expander kit for doing slip joints. I'd really like to see them send the kit to someone with a youtube channel around 82k subscribers so I could see it in action before I buy one. 😉
Awesome. Waking up to Captain Kleeman makes for such a great morning. Your self deprecating humor is simply brilliant.
Yes it is . He puts out great videos and some of us can learn something from them. A lot of us older people can no longer do the things we used to. so RUclips is what we have to make our day.
When dealing with old, rust gems like these - always reach for the torch first.
The grease mustache was spectacular!
Mike get your drone in the air for a second set of eyes!! Great job Mike you’re getting close to dumping dirt💪🤗🇺🇸
Oh, when the wrench fell - been there, done that! Great work Mike - just keep going!
Man, I hate those falling tool zones!😼
I had ordered a power window assembly from Rock Auto for my truck. They sent me the wrong one. Should have ordered from Mike's Auto. At least he has attention to detail!
I'm invested Captain. I been grunting and groaning and chuckling. Fun times getting more excited each upload . Getting the celebratory high fives ready for the climax video. ❤Forget about it.
Your welding is definitely getting better. Can see your confidence getting better
That is coming together nicely. Absolutely love all the one liners. Stay safe
Now that's what I call progress Mike. Well done.
1:39 NICE RUSTACHE BRO!
Still haven’t seen that Milwaukee 3/8 12volt ratchet! No wonder this project is not finished!
the voice over on the exhaust work had me in stitches... you da man Capt'n ! :)
Thanks!
Mike your killing it as always,coming right along,just keep doing your thing.be safe.next.😎😎😎👍👍👍
For some strange reason "Here Comes The Bride" popped into my mind when you were lifting and moving the cab onto the chassis.
Thanks for sharing Capt!
Whenever one of your clips come up I know I'm in for a bloody good laugh.
A hard days work then come home to a Captain Kleeman video and a cold beer. Life’s good 😁👍 Thoroughly enjoining this project, you’re doing excellent work and your 555 is truly earning its keep 👍 Excellent video thank you Mike 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸
Use some all thread cut to size, coated in anti-seeze. I did it college as a temporary repair and it became permanent. Get a new exhaust donut as needed. Keep banging away build is going great! Love your dry humor and sarcasm! Your not setting land speed records with build but your getting done!
Watching this real world truck resto-rebuild -creation is more entertaining and fun than watching the high dollar/ big buck expensive custom car build shows. Seriously.
You are doing a great job on many levels Mike. Enjoy and appreciate this project. Look forward to every video.
Good Afternoon Captain!!
That is an impressive mustache you are sporting today.
Great progress!!
Stay safe.
"Nope, that's reverse!... oh, that's fine" 🙂 👍 😂
Measure with a Micrometer Mark with Chalk Cut with an Axe and it is Rudolf Near-enough saves time dancing about trying for perfection. 8:48 1/4" chalk line.
Y'all are too far away from one another, but I would love to see a collaboration with you and FabRats! I think y'all would work together great!! Glad to see it is coming back together!
Would be fun
This project reminds me of Johnny Cash's one piece at a time caddy, great job even tho it is a FORD
It good to see the rig being taken care of and doing everything right as possible Mike! I think it’s going to be a workhorse for you! Be nice to be able to haul dirt or debris on the homestead my friend! It won’t get done if you don’t try and you always give it your best! Do whatever you need to do brother! Can’t wait to hear her fire off for you! She’s going to be a beast once you’re done! The ole acetylene wrench works everytime my friend! lol 😂 😂Lol
"cross hrading is nature's loctite!!! Epic!!
Cross threading is nature's lock tight - LOLOLOLOLOL!!!
Captain she’s really coming together! Can’t wait for next episode.
Great progress Mike. I enjoy watching you putting your truck together. Great witty comments sir. Looking forward to seeing the motor firing up.
Mike I love the way you talk too and about yourself! I'm not as easy on myself as you. Really enjoy your videos!
Appreciate ya watching
Might want to run that exhaust pipe thru the side window vent for those frosty mornings!
Suggest brass nuts on the exhaust manifold, where the head pipe is attached, they won't rust, saves a headache later , speaking from experience.
Looking good sir, good thing you have that guy talking you thru the process, otherwise you might really mess things up 😮😊. Good decision on the drive shaft situation, looks like the glide coating ( the blue stuff on the splines) on the midship burg spline stub shaft is pretty well gone, if you experience excessive drive line vibration in the drive train, that would be a good place to look. Thanks for the update, appreciate you and the videos.
Impressive. Each time I watch another episode, it becomes more real.
The first video of you hauling rock or anything is gonna be cool. I'm glad you have the focus and skills to do this.
Mike, when you were rippin' bits off the truck to start with, the goal of a tidy working vehicle seemed like an unlikely dream. But man oh man, bit by patient bit you're getting there! Thanks for taking us along on the trip - your self-deprecating humour has been widely remarked on... But when that spanner dropped on you, your wordless expression was comedy gold worthy of Oliver Hardy when Stan had got him into "another fine mess"! This is going to be a fine truck, and you'll deserve the warm glow you'll feel every time you use it. 😎😁
Mike, New fancy moustache and where did you get those air condition knee pads (Got-ta get me some)? 😂😂 By golly! It's starting to look like a Dump Truck, again! Note to self: Don't leave wrenches unattended, above head, on surfaces that your using an impact on!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Your progress is making those who watch you extremely happy. Looking forward to seeing and hearing it run and drive. Haven’t ever been inside a blue ford tractor but do the external colors also apply to the inside. For some crazy idea I’m hopeful that they do. That blue is just hitting all the buttons. Wishing you and your family the best.
dont forget to put the driveshaft "in phase" when you get ready to put it on.
Nice job putting the cab on solo!
mike you always make me feel better about how I go about my projects. I am not alone in my frustration.
Cap’n sometimes it’s the little things that warm a man’s cockles…. And then there’s the big ones that make them absolutely boil!
This is a big deal and I’m smilin’ for ya bud!!!!
The project looks SO much better with the cab sitting on the frame! Great job Mike and thank you for bringing us along on your adventures!!!
When I was your age I may have been that enthusiastic abut this type project but, I don't think so Keep on keeping on. And keep on smiling.
Look good Mike, thanks for sharing, Kirk from Louisiana sending prayers and positive vibes to you and your family! 🙏🏻🙏🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙋🏼✌🏻✌🏻
"Cross threading is Nature's Loctite" that made me laugh a lot harder than it should have. Sounds like something you should put on a t-shirt.
Those cross members look awfully familiar as I work in automotive stamping plant and was just racking some yesterday. We make parts for every major North American manufacturer. Most of the parts we make are the reinforcement pieces or the ones that are not in plain sight unless you look under the hood or vehicle itself.
Awesome to see the cab on! Body mount tip, those non-rubber versions tend to squeak (A LOT) after a bit. Lube under the "washer" and ontop of the frame mount. I meant to suggest this earlier....sorry!
another hurdle cleared Capt. cab went on easier then expected especially going in virtually blind, a one man band. surprised Clinton didnt have an extra driveshaft kicking around you might have horse traded for. good catch before the dump bed hoist components went on
This is so cool. I really enjoyed the backhoe series, but this is next level. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent work. Not always easy to do these tasks by yourself, but you did exceptionally well. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, the re-build is coming along great. Like you, I can't wait to hear the engine run. Good job Mike.
You might not know this but walking around half the day with a greasestash has moved you from the amateur shade tree to veteran shade tree mechanic . Keep it up and somebody’s gonna slap an ASE patch on your shirt.
MIKE, not giving you any pressure, you have SIX DAYS left in March ! 😮
Carry on Capt'n!
We are pulling off until the end of April
@@CaptainKleeman
Blame the delay on the weather.
It seems to be the reason for all construction delays here and no one seems to argue about it.
Looking really good there young fella! So much fun watching you make your vision come to life.
Nice job cool truck Ford Nice show 😃👍👍👍👏👏👏👏
Always satisfying when you are putting something back together.
Great job so far Captain.. i know you are anxious so is the rest of the family on here.. but so far everything is coming into plan.. a few modifications but hey, you putting different years together in one awesome truck. Be looking forward to your progression.. and you pretty much been doing this on your own.. you can't be afraid to carry pn woth your dream. Looking forward to seeing it in action..
Don’t be so hard on yourself you are building and learning!
He is the MAN . I can't wait to see his videos this what keep me going. Keep it up and be safe.
Your cranking right along!😊
Hi Mike. Good progress on the dump truck! I've been using flux core on my project too. It's about $500 for a bottle of 75/25 argon/co2 in my area and I'm working outside, like you are. If I already had the bottle, it would be cheaper, but I don't. I find it works pretty well, although some people don't like it. It does run hotter than MIG, partly because the flux core isn't available in a size smaller than .030". I've been using this brand and I like how it works: PGN Flux Core Welding Wire - E71T-11. It is dirtier too, but my welds are far from perfect, and the old death wheel cleans them up pretty well.
I wasn't too excited about this project at first, compared to the other ones. But have to admit, looking out for a new video on this every day now.
(love the warpaint on the face btw XD)
@captiankleeman I’ve seen old painter use a trick of running a string/small rope around the window seals so you can paint around it and get paint under the seal a little better vs masking around the windows with tape
Hey Mike, I watch Make it Kustom and Carl uses his term for eye balling: he uses his eyechrometer. I watch for Chanel’s and see people using their battery tool to knock things into place but they are not built to be a hammer…. So use a hammer and save your tools. I mean that from a caring perspective. Again, problem solving on the fly, simply enjoyable to see with all the slip ups because you’re human. Just loved that comment:”crossthreading is natures locktite.” You come up with some good ones. Getting closer to where you want it to be. Just can’t wait to see how you tackle the tray.
Cab mounted back on the chassis....... woohoo 😃
And the exhaust practically fitted and the pto where it should be..... even better 😁
Just a slight fanangaling on the propshaft, worth the effort Sir 👍😎
This so the song "One Piece at a Time" by Johnny Cash Ford truck version
Great job, man! The soap stone will sharpen with a pocket knife so you can draw more accurate lines. You probably already know that. Just trying to help.
Great to have the cab on the frame gotta feel great i'am not there yet.Coming together well done thank you for sharing
Watching from my phone, I couldn't tell if it was dirt or you were rocking the 70's pornstache! 😂😂
You look good with a mustache! 😋😂🤣
Kleeman Khronicles continue....it was "exhausting" watching you fitting the pipe but you did well. Again, make sure to keep that guy who works in fast motion on the payroll, he's really efficient and paying him by the hour you are definitely getting your money's worth. Good progress on the truck, it's slowly coming together. As always, great channel, great content.
You didn't change your pants yet!!?? They need an oil change too. Lol!! Truck is looking great. Love the videos.
Yes! I wait for these to come out
You are one ambitious man! Keep up the good work!
Thanks
75/25 would be better but at the same time it’s costly brother and people don’t realize money doesn’t grow on trees! You got this brother, just takes a little bit of patience! Takes a good man to do this on utube channel because I couldn’t deal with the comments like you Mike! Good job man, you’re learning as you go! 👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
The Truck is coming along perfectly! Nice Job!
Hey Mike, what's going on?
Oh, the manifold, I see. Great! :D
Looking good. I did try to tell you to move the cab a few inches toward the passenger side, but alas, you couldn't hear me for that diesel engine purring. You figured it out without my help anyway. I tried.
Cool he get it done now
Outside like that, flux core is pretty good Mike. You could find more than one application of the weld is required after cleanup? End resultis good sound metal deposit and reasonable attachment. Gas shield when puffed away by wind can be completely useless in contrast to flux core. Welding (exhaust) pipe you need a still environment for inert gas welding. Preferably fill the tube with CO2 or Argon. Something inert. The driveshaft is fine too Mike. If its too long it ill only pop out the welsh plug in the yoke. When weight first comes onto cart springs (semi-eliptic leaf springs) they extend pulling the axle rearward. Ask your driveshaft shoppe about what I'm saying here? It is a good fit. If it pushes the plug out which it wont you can fix it by removing half an inch of the male spline with your cut off disc in the angle grinder!
It’s looking good captain
