Seeing that twin stick, brought back some old memories of when I was in the military, a buddy and I were driving an old International with twin sticks on our way to Savannah Georgia for an exercise, man it was so easy to get lost in the gears, especially when climbing hills.
I would say do what you prefer, but I enjoy the longer videos. I can start watching these type of videos and be totally surprised when a 55 minute video has gone by in what I thought was 15 minutes. Trucks getting there slowly but surely!
That’s so awesome. I had the idea throwing a 24v in my B42 using the baby duplex and make a work truck out of it 😂 so are you still using the same bell housing off the 24v and what flywheel and other things are you using? This video is so useful for anyone who wants to do this kinda swap.
I used to drive a 1956 H-63 Mack with the duplex transmission with a 3500 gallon tank trailer in the fire dept. In my opinion they were fun to drive with no power steering, no A/C and not alot of power but, love shifting the duplex through all ten gears and when you went from second high to third low we let go of the steering wheel to shift both levers at the same time. Now that I'm 66 years old I would love to drive one again. Take care and have fun driving her when you get it finished.
MM77 Approved 👍🏼👍🏼…………………………………………….. I liked the long version. What ever works best for you and your family is what you should do. I’ll watch what ever you post.
Local to your area, Martins Ferry Ohio here, Nothin better than a nice long video to watch on a Saturday morning while drinking my coffee. Keep'em coming!
I really like how you and Matt make videos on projects into a full video. Meaning even if it takes 3 months from start to finish it is all combined into one or two videos instead of having 6 videos spread over 3 months and it is hard to follow when other equipment videos are in-between.
Pretty soon Sam you'll be using the crane on your Mini Mack service truck to help Matt over at Diesel Creek with putting his Autocar he is restoring back together. 😁 The truck is definitely coming along nicely Sam! Cannot wait for the next video(s) on this truck!
Bonus footage build a platform for the floor jack to fit transmission. A little fabrication in the video 😀 Nice job 👍. Less and less people bringing older equipment back to life.
Hello from way down here in New Zealand!! Long versions please, don't need all the tiny details of what you're doing but do like to see a bit more detail, I find it very annoying when videos just jump to the conclusion of a process, much more entertaining and informative if a bit more time is given to those processes. Loving this little project of yours, and I enjoy the content you produce, keep up the great work!!!
No the longer ones pls as it’s more in-depth really like them ones mate thanks again for your videos good luck with your new project hope you all are well.what a great project and you really know what you are doing great job on you guys all the best
Good job on the install, the comment “ we do it right, because we do it twice” thought I was the only one that has to go thru that!!!!!😮😊😂, thanks for the video young man, enjoyed it.
I subscribed to your channel after watching you help Matt haul his D9H.Been watching your older videos to catch up and the new ones as they are posted.I do enjoy the longer ones more but in the end I'll watch them all no matter the length.
First off your channel is fun to watch and I prefer long videos of the project but it’s your channel you do what fits you best. Second I’m glad you’re a fan of the Duplex trans mission but I gotta say never having used one it’d scare the bejesus out of me and probably a lot of stopping and starting over but hey it’s your truck and a cool one at that so have fun with it. Keep the videos coming give Matt a run for his money.
Another neat way of enlarging the diameter of a shaft for a bearing to fit firmly, is to throw it in the lathe, and give it a light touch with the knurling tool.
Sam, personally the longer videos are a lot more content, but being that this is youre site and your page, whatever you are personally comfortable with, since I understand all the filming and editing oin each one of these is also a bit of work. so any length is fine, though I like the longer versons. Thank you for your channel, your content, and your sharing, appreicated. BTW I Love your dogs, Hugs to both of them.
Sometimes you get to decide the project and other times the project sets the priority. I actually like a combination of short and Long videos. You are always going to be in the best position to decided. There is nothing worse than trying to make a short video long and long video short. Great channel!! Thanks to Diesel Creek for the recommendation.
50 ago I learned how to shift a truck on one of these dual shift lever transmissions. You really needed to know how to shift to drive a truck with these transmissions. Many times I've had to lay under my truck and beat that clutch assembly on the side of the transmission that got hung up between gears when I didn't make square shifts with the brownie and did a rounded shift and the linkage would get hung up and id have to lay in the snow and mud to knock it back in place.
Like the comment below, I love the longer version as you can see more of the problem solving. Great idea to go longer, unless you find it too difficult to edit. Thanks for the ride anyway Sam.
Longer and more coherent segments, starting with a fresh wiring harness and no junction blocks on the firewall. We can't follow a long with a kludgy harness. 3:40
That jib pole assembly seems to have a sharp edge you could hit with your head some day! A touch of grinding could prevent an injury...especially as you get older.
When I first started driving trucks I had this transmission in a 61 white. We called the main gear shift the main and the second shifter was called the brownie. I have no idea why the old timers that taught me to shift called that second shifter the brownie . But the old timers would let go of the steering wheel and then shift both shifters at the same time. It always amazed me how fast they could shift those two shifters at the same time. I was never any good at shifting them at the same time. I hope you checked or replaced the pilot bearing for the imput shaft for the transmission that's pressed into the crank shaft.
Since you and DC Matt have horsed on old draglines and dozers I decided to check out your channel. Well, you can't go wrong with a vintage Mack with twin stick transmission. I'm in!AL B. In Ohio.😊
Sam, I definitely like the longer videos. I don't like shorts at all, so that's what my Vote is alright.This is Bob from Vero Beach Florida.God bless you say shape
That 4 puck Ceramic Clutch disc that you install at 26.04 mins in this video will prove to be the Kiss of Death for this Truck . Your worst investment ever ! Those Ceramic Disc destroy drivelines . You will see .
these long videos are better in my eyes Sam found your channel through DC matt . Im a retired trucker love the super dog and the tilt tail trailer its classId love to have it in my fleet
With all twin stick and a mechanical clutch your gonna be a busy boy, and whooped at the end of the day. Lots of fun in heavy stop & go traffic. Should be a sweet truck when your done.
Long versions are the way to go, and more of them please.
11/10 agree. I can grab a snack and sit back and enjoy watching
Long versions please Sam..Enjoy your videos so much...Many Thanks..
Yeps!
Seeing that twin stick, brought back some old memories of when I was in the military, a buddy and I were driving an old International with twin sticks on our way to Savannah Georgia for an exercise, man it was so easy to get lost in the gears, especially when climbing hills.
Got to love this guy. I'm really glad Matt introduced him. Here to stay.
Same here, love yours and Matt's videos.
I would say do what you prefer, but I enjoy the longer videos. I can start watching these type of videos and be totally surprised when a 55 minute video has gone by in what I thought was 15 minutes. Trucks getting there slowly but surely!
The longer video are where it at they are at. They are Easter to follow.

That’s so awesome. I had the idea throwing a 24v in my B42 using the baby duplex and make a work truck out of it 😂 so are you still using the same bell housing off the 24v and what flywheel and other things are you using? This video is so useful for anyone who wants to do this kinda swap.
Where is part 5, Sam? Digging this project! Thank you😊
Longer format is awesome especially on these major rebuilds please Sam.

I really like how you and Matt make videos on projects into a full video. Meaning even if it takes 3 months from start to finish it is all combined into one or two videos instead of having 6 videos spread over 3 months and it is hard to follow when other equipment videos are in-between.
I vote for longer videos, with all dogs of course!

Nice job 👍. Less and less people bringing older equipment back to life.
Thanks for the feed back! I try to add chapters when the videos get long and keep them under an hour.

First off your channel is fun to watch and I prefer long videos of the project but it’s your channel you do what fits you best.

Another neat way of enlarging the diameter of a shaft for a bearing to fit firmly, is to throw it in the lathe, and give it a light touch with the knurling tool.
A real cool and a great watch Sam what a great project truck always a longer video suits me fine prefer that 👍👋🇨🇦
Great content from Puppy Industries! 🙂
They are good boys!

Well done getting the new transmission fitted, Sam and Big John.
Sometimes you get to decide the project and other times the project sets the priority. I actually like a combination of short and Long videos. You are always going to be in the best position to decided. There is nothing worse than trying to make a short video long and long video short. Great channel!! Thanks to Diesel Creek for the recommendation.
My attention span is about 20 minutes but I’ll watch whatever you put out there.
That was so tight!

Love the dogs helping
I love the more in depth longer videos.
Either format is fine, just keep them coming.
Like the comment below, I love the longer version as you can see more of the problem solving. Great idea to go longer, unless you find it too difficult to edit. Thanks for the ride anyway Sam.
Twin sticks. Shifting and splitting.
Yep another vote for the longer video's
Longer and more coherent segments, starting with a fresh wiring harness and no junction blocks on the firewall. We can't follow a long with a kludgy harness. 3:40
That jib pole assembly seems to have a sharp edge you could hit with your head some day! A touch of grinding could prevent an injury...especially as you get older.

I hope you checked or replaced the pilot bearing for the imput shaft for the transmission that's pressed into the crank shaft.
Sam that is why Mack made me those steering wheels so large so you can stick your left arm through the spokes so you shift both levers at one time.
Longer is better!
Sam shes going to be a dream , long versions are great
Can’t wait to see you replace the ring and pinion in the rear axle and setup the backlash along with the depth.
Gday like watching longer videos. Going to be a awesome little truck. 🇦🇺
Since you and DC Matt have horsed on old draglines and dozers I decided to check out your channel. Well, you can't go wrong with a vintage Mack with twin stick transmission. I'm in!AL B. In Ohio.😊
Sam, I definitely like the longer videos. I don't like shorts at all, so that's what my Vote is alright.This is Bob from Vero Beach Florida.God bless you say shape
I like the long versions - it gives a feeling of "moving forward", and also it also is suitable to watch during workout etc :-D
Longer in depth videos are my favorite
love the project, the dogs are good reliable helpers
That 4 puck Ceramic Clutch disc that you install at 26.04 mins in this video will prove to be the Kiss of Death for this Truck . Your worst investment ever ! Those Ceramic Disc destroy drivelines . You will see .
these long videos are better in my eyes Sam found your channel through DC matt . Im a retired trucker love the super dog and the tilt tail trailer its classId love to have it in my fleet
With all twin stick and a mechanical clutch your gonna be a busy boy, and whooped at the end of the day. Lots of fun in heavy stop & go traffic. Should be a sweet truck when your done.
Loved the: "We do it right, because we do it twice."
Well, I think you got the hard part done I bet Matt would like to have this Mack
