- In this episode of Iron City garage, Clay gets to work on the black 1958 Chevy 3100. Arriving from Texas a few weeks ago this truck gave us a surprise right off the trailer. And unfortunately, it is something that can physically not be fixed, but we’re still taken care of in the correct manner. Tune in to see what this truck has in store for us on the latest episode of Iron City garage.

1955 1956 have a longer column and a flat steering wheel. 55 57 Frames are shorter also. But the column and steering wheel is the same 57 59
Get yourself a good steering wheel puller setup. Those things are worth their weight in gold. I do not know how many mangled up steering wheels I have encountered following a steamboat mechanic with a big hammer.
We broke two of those so far, both snap on. When these are rust jacked this is the only option.
Before the snap on ones broke they completely mushroomed the head of the spline stud as well
I would submit that first you never smack a steering shaft with a hammer as you immediastlet damage the threads. After all the nature of the mission is to use the original steering colum without damage. Using a steering wheel puller that is designed for that particular job is what you need even though you can use a harmonic style puller ( and by the way that type of puller you showed in your video is not manufactured by Snap On nor Mac nor Matco but by OTC (was Ottawatta;sp Tools Corp) I was a Mac Dealer in the early eighties and that particular puller was vendored through OTC. I would suggest that a shaft protector be used between the puller forcing screw and the steering shaft and of course these puller threads on steering wheels being just across from each other it is paramount to keep the puller straight There are shaft protectors that can go over the shaft and have dimple to keep the forcing shaft from walking off of the steering shaft. if the wheel is stubborn take your oxy-acetylene torch and using a small welding tip just heat a small portion of the steering wheel center right by at the splines to cherry red while applying force with the puller. One thing I do not do is to apply force with a wrench or a ratchet but apply force gradually with an impact wrench. What happens here is the rotational torque and the hammering effect of the impact wrench will help to shock the rusted and also tight connection between the steering shaft and the steering wheel. If you look at a steering shaft you will see the splines are tapered slightly to ensure a tight fit. Rust jacking is a condition where rust builds up between two pieces like frame hangers riveted to a frame and the rust builds up and spreads the two pieces apart. If this procedure fails then destroy the steering wheel but save the shaft. I know this is a long dissertation but a properly followed procedure can save a lot of headache and it really doesn't take that long. A no-no is to never beat on a steering shaft with a hammer, you just blew the mission of salvaging the part you needed.
if you apply force with the puller and just cherry up a small point at the splines along with gradual impact action (doesn't have to be lug nut torque setting) You may even save the wheel.
I get all the shopping carts at the store with wheels just like that....
Did the rear glass get lost too? I cant quite tell if its there in the before pic.
Família Iron city mais uma vez gratidão pelo empenho carinho e atenção com nossas raridade enquanto uns acha que e law velha eu chamo de

ON THE LAST VIDEO YOU SAID THE SAME THING I HOPE IT DIDNT HAPPEN AGAIN!!!! CLAY WAS WORKING ON A BLUISH TRUCK LAST TIME...ITS INSIDE THE GARAGE,, UNDER THE MUSTANG..SECOND TRUCK CAME OUT GREAT!!!
❤❤❤me encantan las chevys❤❤❤❤❤
Aren’t they great!
My first car was a 55 Chevy Apache my dad gave me good rest his soul❤
لسلام عليكم اخي الكريم نشكر المريكيا الف شكر 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍👉
My first car was a 59 Apache small back window long boxwith a 283/4 speed. I'm amazed at all of the BBW trucks you find.
Seriously how dont you see or hear a truck bed fall off ! Come on some one stole that! I wouldnt pay the shipper either !
It's probably lying on I-70 somewhere lol
So you bought the shipper?
i never heard from you guys
What are you talking about?
Audio - audio - audio. May I suggest turning down the music - or turning up your narration. I find I'm turning up the volume when you're speaking, then turning it down during music and 'other things' - then I can't hear what you're saying - up-down-up-down, you get the idea. With respect :) P.S. - Industry standard for music and/or narration is -12db max level.
FIND A OLD DOLLY FROM A OLD TOW TRUCK AND WELD IT TOGETHER (SO IT WILL NEVER COME APART ) SO YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DRAG AND CAUSE MORE DAMAGE TO YOUR RIDES / REMEMBER EVERY THING YOU DAMAGE COST YOU MONEY
This is my birth year. And my dream truck.
who cares!!!!
Wow I would have been pissed off I wouldn't have paid him shit either
sad part is,the price is right along the way and then.....sold!!!!hope he got more for the bed then the trip was worth.sad
Who prepared the trucks for transport? Either the seller or buyer is responsible, not the driver. He has to assume these partial vehicles are safe for shipment..
FMCSA states all commercial drivers are responsible for their own cargo securement.
Was the bed bolted down? Is it the drivers job to inspect your stuff? In saying that i dont think it could just fall off. But maybe
Not in the video unfortunately but there looked to be some fresh cuts
Drivers job to secure his load forsure. Thats fmcsa rule
🇦🇺👍
WHEN USING A GRINDER PUT ON SAFETY GLASSES / YOU LOUSE A EYE YOUR LIFE BECOMES A LOT HARDER / GO ASK SOME ONE WHO HAS LOST A EYE OR (GOD FORBID ) EYES
Get rid of the loud music !
I know if I were a transporter, I would take photos at every pickup I made documenting what was on a vehicle or wasn't on a vehicle. Now if the truck was documented and you received it without the bed you file a claim with the transportation company. I think under the rules the freight charges have to be paid but you file a claim against the transportation company for the loss of the bed. Would be best to require photos of the units when picked up to ensure that the parts don't get sold in transit. I kind of figured that, that was what happened. I tell you this that transport company would not get my business again. I am on your side and as a former owner-operator it pains me that there are crooked bastards out there. It puts a stain on this whole business.
In the beginning of the video it shows a video of the truck leaving the farm with bed on it
Yes sir that is all you need. The driver of the transport should have called the transportation company and the police on this deal if the bed indeed had fallen off of the load or if someone had taken the bed off of the load say when the driver was on a break. People hauling these cars around for hire do not realize that they are subject to the same hours of service as other For Hire carriers under the hours of service, and also are subject to insurance claims just like other carriers. You definitely have a claim against the transportation company on this one. It was the driver's responsibility to immediately notify the transportation company "if the bed had actually fell" off of that truck. @@Ironcitygarage
DUCK TAPE A EYE GLASS POUCH TO THE HANDEL ON THE GRINDER / AND PUT A PAIR OF SAFETY GLASSES IN IT / THEN YOU WILL ALWAYS HAVE GLASSES RIGHT THERE WHEN USING THE GRINDER / NOW YOU CAN TELL ME TO GO FU@K MY SELF BUT NEXT TIME YOU GET CRAP HIT YOUR EYE YOU WILL REMEMBER ME / I HOPE IT NEVER HAPPENS TO ANYONE / OR JUST GET A EYE GLASS POUCH THAT CLIPS ON TO YOUR TOP POCKET OR PANTS POCKET
I agree with you, clay won’t learn till he takes a hospital ride and misses a couple weeks work
