    That’s a compression bolt. They pop when you cut them lol

    That old Sterling with a Detroit is a good old truck but why didn't you find a single axle day cab? It would have been a lot less work tearing it down. It going to be badass no matter what.

    We just use a flat piece of aluminum to drive in front seals. Never have any issues on em. I’m a dirty big truck mechanic

  • @donovansavage2445

    I would start with a single axle day cab with a 6 or 7 speed allison and 4.56 gears

    • @HeyItsJonny
      @HeyItsJonny Год назад

      An older freightliner box truck with a bobbed frame to make it a single axle is a great place to start.

    • @donovansavage2445
      @donovansavage2445 Год назад

      @HeyItsJonny I used to drive one with a 3126 6 speed. Slow as shit. Super rough ride. Air bag suspension with a 8.3 cummins would be a lot better

    • @HeyItsJonny
      @HeyItsJonny Год назад

      @Donovan Savage super slow, I drove one for matrix a while back that had a drop axle to run local stuff when full length was slow.
      The trucks with the 7 speed allison and mercedes/detroits ~8L were much more tolerable.

      Probably needed a class 8 frame, and he's also a ford guy.

    You should have resealed the front timing cover or replaced it new they are known to leak or crack.

    Look everyone if you wanna look COOL like Aaron then don't wear PPE but if you don't feel like getting your face or body burnt up, wear it.
