You are the magician of heavy metal. Thanks for this. It's fascinating to watch someone as skilled as you obviously are save something that looks like it should be scrapped. Awesome job!
Since my wife passed away 4 months ago I have been watching your channel just to keep my mind in the right place I miss her so bad we were married 30 years she was only 51 years old when she passed away thank you so much for your videos I've been driving a truck for 41 years and it is interesting how you do things thank you for everything and keep things coming God bless you and your family
It's a lot like Rigging for a crane lift! There are two types of rigging, Successful and Disastrous! Good Luck and keep on being Successful! Love the content.
Resurrecting old machines is a noble cause. Takes a lot of energy to produce any machine of this size and always good for any machine not be wasted. Good work.
Good job dude! :) You do awesome work. As far as knee pads go, I ALWAYS made a point to wear them when I was younger doing HVAC work, plumbing, etc.. (I also wore gloves and safety glasses as well.) The other guys my age at the shop always made fun of me, but my boss told me something one day that made me smile. He said "Jon, don't pay attention to those idiots. I wish I was as smart as you when I was your age, because I wouldn't be in as much pain everyday as I am now."
Your a dying breed the new gen will never learn or understand what you do because a computer can’t do it for the or tell them what to do. I’m a semi retired diesel mechanic and no new guys to do that either.
A couple of years back, a day that I took off, the truck I run with a end dump, it's got like 15 or 16 foot wb ( wheel base). Well that driver of that day put in it flopped if over loaded. It was messed up 😢😢. They pulled out a very big portion of the load before pulling it back over. Took it to truck frame straighting place. It doesn't drive the same, has a site pull to the left & even with the new trailer it don't track straight. Steer tires aren't cheap now days, thank goodness it's a company truck. You do a great job . It's amazing what these rails will take.
I’m just an overall small mechanic kind of guy. I own my own truck and drive for living, but I didn’t know this type of stuff was possible… Thank you for showing us!
Watching this truck bend like it is has to be the craziest thing I’ve seen in a while…I didn’t even think this would be a job someone does lol very awesome!
When I poured the floor in garage I put chains into pockets for tie downs. Have an old ford 4x4 with bent frame, front left. Giving it a try. Thanks for the confidence
Amazing how much flex in those frames. I retrieve tractor trailer heavy recovery. I see them twist and come back. So I know it takes a ton to actually get them back straight.
That's some bull work there my friend. Good thing I was in my twenties when I did it. Cement mixers were the worse. We did a crap load of dump trailers mostly.
I was a automotive heavy frame man 25 years ago and we used a frame machine and I have even used floor pods with moveable towers . I really like your video's . So Thank you
We need a short video on how you know that will shoot out across the shop 😂😂!! Keep up the hard work brother trucker to mechanic we couldn't do it without y'all!!💪
That Mack appears to have originally been a road tractor. Noticed the glad hand holder on the back of the cab and fifth wheel plate frame brackets. And the red dash trailer valve
Nice Twist, as a dozer guy I've seen this and how it's rolled over due to the new guy that has no clue how to back a truck up and give the thumbs up. Let alone the drive actually paying attention. Call the wrecker and don't worry she'll bring the thunder blowing the black smoke driving off.
Keep the videos coming my friend and don’t think people make fun of you for the old machine that you have , I am envious that you have such a machine and I wish I had a machine and shop like you have !!! Thank you for sharing brother ! ❤ 🍺😎
I started my trade as a frame man in 1990. After vocational school I went to Chief frame school in Toledo Ohio. Started out with center line gauges and couldn’t believe it when we got our first laser measuring system. But by that time insurance co. Were changing out frames even if it could be repaired. I never worked on anything larger than a f450.
Outstanding job young man. I`m retired from working on trucks. I can feel your pain. Getting up and down and crawling around trucks is work. Not many people want to work anymore. Esp. when it`s dangerous. If y`all make it to retirement I wish you long life for your joints. Got 2 new hips myself an $97k ea. Thanks for medicare.
Wow I worked at Bee Line Safety Service . You have Bee Line equipment . I had to straighten a Mack aluminum frame dump . Fell over dumping a load and bent it worse pulling back up . The Dump bed was removed . I had to twist almost 4 feet to make it stay . Aluminum is so rubbery . Had to build blocks to bolt on the pushing heads to use all the stroke of the pusher
48 hours of metal music and the Mack will work again. Good work.
Dude that squeaky toy sound is fcuking hilarious 😂😂😂
A bit loud tho
Sounded like a duck at +1.75 speed lol
It made the video lol
Its a tool to destroy... And a weapon to build. 😂
😂😂😂😂 yeah man for real
The man isn't a mechanic, he's a wizard. Amazing dude.
This dude just screams the 80’s vibe I dig it! 😂
You are the magician of heavy metal. Thanks for this. It's fascinating to watch someone as skilled as you obviously are save something that looks like it should be scrapped. Awesome job!
Who ever is paying you there not paying you enough!! Great Job
Nice video. You are always worth a watch.
Doing a stressful job like that and still filming, you have my respect.
U sir are a master of your craft, a dying breed in this day and age. Respect from australia mate 👊 🇦🇺
The detailed work is what we all wanted to see, nothing better than giving the people what they want 🤙
Your a true professional. There are fewer and fewer men in this world that can look at something and truly restore it properly.

I don't know what you get paid for your skills, experience, and hard work, but it probably isn't enough. Outstanding results!

You’re absolutely amazing at what you do and I’m glad that Bob is there to support you 😂
I almost always have no idea what is going on. But i love watching it and the twist is always fun to watch. Seeing how u do this is amazing

Dude has some crazy skills

nice to watch a guy that has been doin it a long time and knows the feel of doing it . nice, thanks
If he was in an 80's hair band, he would be in Twistin Mister. The ultimate heavy metal band.
Great Content I love the longer Videos. Keep it coming I know Work is hard enough as it is without the camera. So thankyou.
we like the longer videos
I absolutely love your channel! I really enjoy the combination of skill and humour!

Hell of a job and you gotter done! Merry Christmas to ya!
This was absolutely awesome to watch. There is something therapeutic about watching a master in his trade working.
This is the kinda guy id love to work with and grow my skills and knowledge learning from him.
its like watching a chiropractor but for truck frames lol
Mans working on heavy duty trucks like it's a Honda Civic on a jack.
Great video as usual Devin!
Great film again. And shows just how much hard work goes into the job. 👍👍
I’m a regular diesel mech for a large fleet in newyork, it’s so awesome to see what our severely trucks go through to get fixed. You’re the man bendin
This was really interesting content.😊
Semi chiropractor got me there at the end.
Love to watch someone who is a master of his craft work.
HE IS THE BEST HEAVY COLLISION FRAME GUY IVE EVER SEEN
Merry Christmas Devin Love This Long Video 😀😊😀👍🏼😎😎 Macksimized That Repair Really Good 👍🏼
Crazy stuff, those twists insane!
I enjoyed the long format that has more explanation.
Definitely worth watching.
As a 25 year auto technician, my body is beat up and tired. I can only imagine the physical toll this kind of heavy work takes on your body.
Man that truck was Jacked up! Nice fix slick
I watched all the shorts before this but it is nice to see it in one package.
solid work bro 😊 glad to get the stickers, clearly worth a few.dozen horsepower 👍
If I had a truck and the frame was bent (and insurance would only pay for a fix) I’d send it to this dude no matter how far away he is
Bob needs a raise! He's one busy dude. Guys everywhere.
Lots of respect. Not many people can do this job these days
Amazing how much flex in those frames. I retrieve tractor trailer heavy recovery. I see them twist and come back. So I know it takes a ton to actually get them back straight.
Merry Christmas. Great video. I'm glad you are moving past the invincible stage of life and wearing knee pads. Old timers do know some things.
I've pulled a frame straight several times on race cars on a frame machine... It's amazing to me... Great job killer.
I have been around that stuff as well. I fix up old trucks today. The trusty rusty..getting the bends and kinks etc.
Merry Christmas. I hope Santa brings you a new frame machine!
I have worked on crap my hole life so cool to see something new it's harder than you make it look
Love the longer content!!! Merry Christmas and happy new year bro!!!!
That's some bull work there my friend. Good thing I was in my twenties when I did it. Cement mixers were the worse. We did a crap load of dump trailers mostly.
Nothing wrong with older equipment, as long as it works, and you don’t mind the little extra work.
Awesome work. This is an art to doing this kind of job. Love the long format . Merry Christmas to you and your family and also Bob don't forget Bob
Great to see these trucks fixed instead of being wrecked like we do in crooked australia. 😁
I was a automotive heavy frame man 25 years ago and we used a frame machine and I have even used floor pods with moveable towers . I really like your video's . So Thank you
Merry Christmas. Approved.
That was frickin amazing. I love Bob.
We need a short video on how you know that will shoot out across the shop 😂😂!! Keep up the hard work brother trucker to mechanic we couldn't do it without y'all!!💪
I can’t even straighten a bent hanger. Dayum! Dudes got skills!
You Frame Guys are a special breed! Killer frame machine you have there...coupled with your skills, you DA MAN!
Killer vid. Loved seeing how you were able to straighten that rig out. Truly an art.
That Mack appears to have originally been a road tractor. Noticed the glad hand holder on the back of the cab and fifth wheel plate frame brackets. And the red dash trailer valve
Love these longer videos. Really shows how much work it takes to fix these trucks. Have a great X-mas and a safe New Years.
Nice Twist, as a dozer guy I've seen this and how it's rolled over due to the new guy that has no clue how to back a truck up and give the thumbs up. Let alone the drive actually paying attention.
Call the wrecker and don't worry she'll bring the thunder blowing the black smoke driving off.
If this skill is not an art of exceptional understanding then I dont know what is. Impressive.
Love the videos keep them coming and hope you and your family have a wonderful new year.
Dr. Bendon, Truck Frame Chiropractor. Cures painful rollovers. 😂
Keep the videos coming my friend and don’t think people make fun of you for the old machine that you have , I am envious that you have such a machine and I wish I had a machine and shop like you have !!! Thank you for sharing brother ! ❤ 🍺😎
You make fixing that McVolvo look easy keep on twisting.
thanks much diamond man, just bought pete 335, making a house car for me, no more trucking @ 70.

Good to see real craftsman doing their job like true artist.
Love the long format

Unbelievable what you can do. You make it look easy!
That was a hell of a trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Great video! I enjoy seeing the process, not just the clips. Great jams at the shop as well…..
Stumbled on your channel, you reallt know your stuff fella, I'd watch your video just for the great background music..stay safe from Canada
I was in the trade for 45 years . Heavy,dirty ,noisy. I sure do miss it lol.Boy watching this video brings back memories thanks
This was amazing. Thank you!
Merry Christmas Devon and family, friends. Nice job getting that back on the road, better to repair than replace a big truck like that.
Fantastic job on a tuff job.
Appreciate the explanation, that knowledge is priceless
I'm now convinced Sam Kinison never died
That's some technical geometricals
Awesome job
