    This is what keeps me watching .... I'm not a diesel fan, not a 'big pickup' fan and not a dually fan. For me, it's the way you and Rick interact and work together, you both have talents that are special both individually and as a team.
    Having the Mrs. jump in to lend a helping hand when needed is just icing on the cake!

    My daily is an 87 F150. It’s the body style after that, the brick-nose. It has the 300 inline 6. Possibly the best motor Ford ever made. 4 speed manual and the first EFI 300. It might be the most dependable vehicle I’ve ever owned.

    Hey guy's, Mick from Australia here. Love you're channel how you calmly work through things. You're dad is a real champ. When I do disk brakes I leave the old pad in there and use a C clamp on that. You should keep that truck as a tow vehicle. I would love it over here.

      @brianrule5547 2 месяца назад

      Yep, that's what I've worked out is best to use, & always handy to the job.
      The fact that the brake effort was so bad was most likely the front discs needed skimming to allow new pads to have a good friction surface, IMO
      Oil comming from exhaust on second motor could've been from any oil collected in the upper part of the engine if it had been accidently laid over after removal from the original chassis ?
      So in short, Travis could've run that motor for long ger

    Front pads were cracked probably because rotor pistons are dragging. They were way too difficult to retract. Also, effecting acceleration. Do the whole brake system (rebuild calipers/wheel cyls, master) particularly since you plan on selling it.
