      He needs to have a narrow white stripe in between the green and black for separation/definition.
      It will make for some great future videos.

    I own a drive train shop. A little advice. Im pretty sure those are International RA472 or 474 rears. pull the power divider lock air cylinder and make sure the cylinder and piston O ring are in good shape. IH rears work opposite of all other rears . air unlocks the power divider and spring pressure applies it. If you are leaking air into the diff housing, you wont hear it. You will be riding around with the power divider locked and not know it. It will destroy both rears.

    After watching your videos for a year or so now, I'm not surprised it took longer than expected and went further than expected. I see you do the same thing when you're working for other people, going further than expected, and doing a better job than they ask for, so I think it might just be in your nature. Thanks for sharing!

    You two working together is always entertaining. People will argue about this, but when it comes to tighten bolts. You should always tighten from the nut side and not the head of the bolt. I had to through that in there. Looking really good guys.

    Fun fun fun video.
    When you watch the video you hate to see it come to a end. It is a little bit like a soap opera (cliffhanger) will MBTS cure himself of his sandpaper aversion? Will rust creep in before Lt. Dan gets painted? The answer to these questions and more on the next video of DP and MBTS.
    Keep up the good work.
    Be safe
    Be good
    Enjoy life.

    Mike if you end up having to reuse that windshield seal. Put it a pot of water, heat it up to just below a boil. Then take it out using gloves. Then reinstall the windshields. This will make the rubber soft enough to get the glass in. God bless

    @joemascioni3101 3 года назад +1

    I knew it was going to go to "large car" status. I could hear it in the tone of your voice in the last LT Dan video. Did you know that you are supposed to use a special aluminum primer when painting or doing body work? The sand blasting probably made it gritty enough for the bondo to stick, but smooth aluminum or sanded panels need to have a primer/sealer sprayed on it.

    That windshield gasket should have a built-in lock strip on the outside. It looks like a seam but if you put a small flat screwdriver in it, it will open up and give you more room to take the glass out or put the glass in. Those windshields use to be cheap (like $30 some bucks) but it has been a few years since I've had to get and install any so they might be more now. You fellas are doing a fine job on the truck.

    Just throwing this out there for future reference... the little handheld sand gun and hopper at harbor freight with really fine sand works amazing for little touch up spots!
    I have used it for touching up rust spots on and ground stud cleaning on frames
    I have the snapon blaster because I got it cheap, but it’s identical to the harbor freight one
    It would be perfect for those rivets

    I worked in a body shop through the winter months when I was younger, a skill that carried over through the years with a few lost brain cells from lacquer 🤣 so I'll reserve my cheese grader use. Zinc Chromate primer is best to seal things up but the shop is a dust bowl to paint in. Clean it up the best you can and flood the floor with water, hope for the best. You have gone to great lengths and the truck will turn out fine. Cheers 👍 Have to order me a pair of those boots and see what the fuss is all about.

    @morgansword 3 года назад

    I said the same thing when I was your age Mike. We lived through the fifties and sixties and never knew how good we had it. At least then the national debt was a few million.... not the zillion it is now. You took it this far so a visor might happen... a bit spendy but wow what a difference looking through glass at the sun or snow. Both really suck when so bright that the birds have to land and walk. I too was surprised when no nests in the ceiling or sides of cabin on the inside. They make a perforated board that is a sound deadener and for me a clearer head at night or day when you crawl out of your sixteen hour shift in a truck. Oh is it gonna shine.
