you guys are good at what you do with repairs
For someone that was (at least initially) hesitant about being on camera, Chris has certainly shown he is just as skilled at being a RUclips vlogger as he is as a mechanic.
Love your work Chris, keep it up!! 👍
gotta love the guy, using a torch and smoking a cigarette, no school like the old school
Orwells' lookin' great, Steve! & Chris is a fantastic addition to the channel!
I’ve got to say the wheels on orwel look great,also Chris seems like an extremely capable mechanic.
Great to see a small business expanding in these hard times.Good luck to you both from Spain.
Orwell looks AWESOME !!!!!!!
Great video Mr Steve Orwell looking sharp good your helper is with you with the ride of along you guys be safe buddy 🙂
Rest looks like a great guy.I think he's gonna work out.Just fine, love.Your channel keep up the great work steve
Steve, just thought i would comment, Chris has been a great addition to your shop and channel, i think when he's able to drive he will prove to be a major asset, good job Chris.
I’m a 48 year retired trucker. I’ve always been impressed with your steering ,Steve .You are good at that
Thanks. I guess I had practice.
@@fsctrucking Can you please try and keep your content to being out on the road TRUCKING!!! I did not come to the channel FSC shoptime, razor off road trips....
@@jonathanbair523 then don't watch those videos simple.
Yeah Chris is a great asset! Wheels on Orwell are nice, now sick Chris on the trailer deck!👍
Hi Steve you and Chris make a heck of a team👍👍
Gonna say I enjoy it when you get to take one of our loads. You are fun to chat with and you make it easy to load these trucks. Hope to see ya this week with the trucks I'm sure we are shipping
I'm always glad to serve! See ya soon!
Stickers next for the merch would be cool
That is one he'll of a beautiful truck Steve, never let him go.
Orwell looks great with the new drive wheels such a cool old Cabover!!!!😉
You and Chris are a great working team.
Things are progressing very nicely.
OSHA stands for OH SHIT HAD ACCIDENT 😂 you keep doing what works for you. I think Chris is going to be a good asset to your company. Keep up the good work Chris
Hate osha. There like industrial game wardens😂
LMAO!!
Friend of mine is an apprentice ironworker, told me the most annoying job he's has so far was erecting a new building across the street from OSHA's state HQ. They were watching thru the windows and then running over from their cubicles and issuing citations left, right, and center.
Orwell is stylin'..... He sure looks great with shiny wheels. You hit the lottery with Chris.....
Looks a lot better with those new Rims
Time to get polished wheels for the trailer
Orwell looks so damn good in the wild with those new aluminum shoes.
Hello Steve and Chris. I've been across the GW in a single axle Freightliner/Shaker. 1981 /w V6-71. Loved every one.
Steve
Very glad Chris got your driver's door fixed😅😅😅
I think you should go to the beach with your welding suit on.
Nice video! Enjoyed it! Thanks Steve.
Truck looks a lot better with them new wheels on it very nice.
standard shift trans is new anti theft system
You've got yourself a great guy helping you, he's a keeper.👍
In my observation, it seems like Chris and you have a really compatible working business relationship where he knows what needs to be done and you two are able to bounce the absurbaties of the world off each other as if you were friends your entire life. Good to hear Chris wants to advance forward to help you out with getting loads and getting to know the customers you serve which says alot about Chris wanting to know everything there is to know about his craft.
liked the shot of you not using your clutch when shifting. that was the way I shifted once I got my truck rolling
Great video Steve really enjoy all the different camera angles and your commentary and the music. You and Chris make one hell of a team. It nice to see the progress that you're getting done with Chris's help. Looking forward to your next video stay safe Steve and Chris.
Orwell seems to be shifting a lot smoother, great job Chris.
Great video Steve! Great introduction to Chris hearing your interaction with him. Super editing makes good storytelling. Keep rockin it bud!
Dang, them shiny wheels look fab. Be nice to get the tanks and all the rest next...lol
Steve, you and Chris are quite a pair. Good match.
When I started trucking I bought a manual transmission car an taught myself how to drive it. Which helped me drive my first truck which was an International cab over while everyone else wanted a nose in front of me. A drove a piece equipment that they were getting rid of. I had the time of my life driving a cab over.
I never had a manual transmission car, so I learned how to shift in an international cabover that had a 7 speed Spicer. Graduated to 10 speed and 13 later on.
Wow real men that don't have to wrappped in bubblerap
school is useful to understand the fundamentals, but no education shows you every possible scenario. hands-on learning and learning from some someone whose done the job for 30 plus years is the best way to learn anything because they have had the time to see and deal with many possible outcomes of the job and dealt with them in many different ways
Best way to stay safe is to pay attention to what your doing a you guys are doing what you need to do
I'd like to say this that I am glad you are driving an old school truck back in the day they got the job done
Safety practices are all fun and games to make light of until someone gets hurt. I've worked in industry and trucking and farming. I'm 74 years old. One of my best friends had his arm ripped out of the socket because of unsafe practices....JUST SAYIN.
I do indeed use the appropriate safety equipment. No, I don't wear a hazmat suit. This crew needs to use hearing protection.
and when they get hurt then it has become a sports event.
Driving a manual transmission is safer you have much more control over the vehicle
I hear that people with ADHD have better luck with manuals. So true!
Started out on manuals drove them for years and then the company I work for went to autos I would still rather have a manual
At least with European trucks you have a synchromesh gearbox (transmission for you yanks).
@@iansmartel5473Both words are used here, depending upon what part of the country you happen to be in.
Nice footage
Yay we get to see Orwell I love watching these videos love the rims 2 you certainly got you a good guy working for you and Chris he seems so knowledgeable
Chris, check out the evolution cold cut saw, it goes through metal like a hot knife through butter, and the steel stays colder to the touch, cracking bit of kit.
James Pretty literally just texted me the exact same thing.
@@fsctrucking you know what they say about great minds think alike, except I have MS and my mind is screwed, pmsl
Fsc you are a super dad you get a gold star brother
That truck is super nice 👍🏿
Been subbed to this channel for about 3 years now and I must say I love how that old truck is still being worked today always nice to see a classic on the road still working
Orwell sounds much happier since that fuel system issue was fixed. Also i think it's time you have chris change orwell's wiper blades the one in the middle was looking like it was starting to fray a bit. Honestly if you can some rain x wiper blades that fit orwell i highly recommend it. same with treating the windshield with rain x. just an idea. hopefully chris can eventually get your gauges on orwells dash working again soon. also i don't know if it's the gauge or what but your volts looked a bit low. you were only showing like 12 volts barely 13 volts with orwell running might wanna have chris check the alternator on orwell i would hate for you steve to break down in the middle of nowhere.
To be honest, I rather see you on the road with Orwell, then you messing around in the shop... Sorry I just am not a shop/gear head guy... I love seeing you on the road getting/doing them loads!!!
Now ORWEL looks like a new truck again.
STEVE: Sorry to say but now that you've changed the rims - it was worth it
You guy makes a good point
Anyone who points out safety issues has never worked in a shop. We all know the safe way to do things. But, 90% of the time it isn't applicable. So you might get some hot shavings down your shirt, big deal.
I always love when some 20 something tells me my knife is not safe I'm 58 and I've had my totenship card for a long time 🙃 couple stitches here and there but everything still attached 😅 😊
Big facts
I @@williamfrederick3849
safety third!
Everyone is a backseat driver until they are forced to do it themselves.
Just watching now a sleep when video came out 24th June early morning uk I wouldn't mind getting a Orwell shirts .any way hi to Chris and your self and your family steve all ways looking forward to your video
Love your channel and work ethic
Thank you!
So true about worth ethic which does not exist today
Absolutely kicking ass at FSC!!!! 🚛
At the end. I totally agree. They made me mad when they went to automatic transmissions only. The way people were driving them. Only two I have never driven. 3 speed on the column and a 18 speed split. 13 speed is my favorite. For hills and mountains. Thanks you two.
Hey Steve, I was listening to your comments about driving automatic trucks and I drove a cab over for 18 years of bridge driven in Japan. I’ve driven in Sweden. I’ve driven all over the world but unfortunately I have to drive automatic now because I lost my leg so my left leg that is and so it’s hard for me to push down the clutch anyway just thought I’d mention that not negatively and the other thing is watching you drill those holes I don’t wanna be negative either but maybe use a little oil when you drilling those thick pieces of metal you wouldn’t burn out so many drills but anyway just saying, hope you’re doing well anyway and I love watching your stuff!
get'r done bro
Hey, Chris, hopefully you can find time to build a table so you don’t have to work on the floor. I always hated working on the floor.
It's under the upper 5th wheel.
Imma keep sayin it this why personally continue to watch your channel
Man Steve still gives us the stills y'all out His video
Hey Steve you are drilling them holes upside down.lol.🤣
Sure was.
Great video, very cool content. Have a good one.
I am surprised you don't have a drill press Steve. Hopefully one is on your to do list.
Former boss of mine called it "advanced technique"...bending or breaking "the rules" because you have experience and know what you're doing. Nobody wants to get themselves hurt.
Orwell's new rims sure look great!
Thanks Steve great video
I installed 2 rows of E track the length of my trailer along with a row of L track on each wall.
You should be able to eliminate almost all play in the steering. Most steering boxes have adjustment for the play and if you have good steering joints and king pins there isn't any reason it can't be as goog as a brand new truck.
Reminds me of one car show. There were three people in an 1966 P5B Rover car. Husband and Wife and his mechanic. The mechanic was incase anything broke! There were some interesting discussions at the border. He was only going to work on the owner's car, if something went wrong, not for hire on anyone else's Rover. If you can work on a Rover car, then when you go to a Rover car show you end up having to work on someone's Rover so they can drive home again!
The song near the end is awesome. Hope to see you in Wega one of these days
Orwell looks great with the new wheels!!
While he hasn't posted a vid with his new ride, Lucky Banana Heavy Haul did give a teaser shot of it. It looked like an old Peterbilt. He is giving up the company owned new Pete with an automatic to drive his own rig with his preferred manual. You likely have seen his employer's trucks on the road, the bright orange Bellemare heavy haul.
Who needs safety equipment. Ever watch those 3rd world videos where everyone's in they're pajamas welding with no gloves, no eye protection, wearing sandles and doing it all in squatting position. No one ever gets hurt...
Lol
Does that really happen?😂😅😊
I really hope these 2 do a drag build in the future. That would be a really cool series.
Buy u a nice air ride seat your worth it.and so is Orwell.
Are we NOT gonna talk about the quad axle that turned into a ghost behind Orwell??? 😮😂 (11:15)
Good one, Steve!!
Orwell looks great with his new shoes, too!
Hey, Steve, how's Going so I do agree with Chris on this. I like working outside with my hands. I like getting dirty, but I do have to wear safety equipment like you're hearing protection gloves in safety vests and stuto boats so I agree that when I'm screwing anymore. About Steve Edwards's dogs a command people like seriously we do things the right way.
Thanks again for a enjoyable video
The steering is much better ! Scared me before
I think we should be in the correct in turms in trucking that’s the old school way
I have never driven manual transmission from the time I learned how to drive a car 🚗 at 17 I have been a four-wheeler all my life. 🙂
Love Ya givin Love to Sketchy haterz…..sooooo, I’ve always used circular signals on which way I want the loader to steer. Old Military habits, that way there’s no confusion as to which way. Keep it FSC!!
Oh my God, Chris was smoking while using the torch. He could start a fire with that cigarette. 😁😁
Nah, he was using the cig as a dust mask..... lol
@@jsh6952😮😢😂😅🎉
I don't think he is to bright
@Fivestar833
It is not possible to light a torch or even a puddle of gasoline with a lit cigarette. It's nowhere near hot enough. Reverse the two, and that is probably how he lit the cigarette.
One important Point for Chris would be to refurbish the Seats. They are pretty worn down...
Man nice ride
I have never learned how to drive a manual transmission not that I can’t. In my diesel technology mechanic classes I have learned that you must double clutch in third gear and I have learned how to couple and uncouple a trailer. 🙂
No real trucker "double clutches." If you can't float em, I can't teach the rest.
Dang. Have you considered washing the sheets in your truck
It's a BABY snow pusher.... So small, I thought you were going to load another.... ;)
Looked like it was about to tip over forward like a little Tonka toy 🤣
Trailer that went by when Steve was loading has the back half with the sweeper.
wheels are looking good!
It's been a minute since there was a boat Video
The work shirt's looks good. Jesse likes tshirts's better. But he will wear a dress shirt for church. He always wear long sleeves only at church. Cause people will ask him who are the portrait tattoo' sleeves on both of his arm's. One side is out late best friend's that Jesse served with in the army. Other arm is his late grandparents and his dad and his late Aunt Maggie. Jesse does the same thing Chris is doing cutting metal up. We have the exact same tie downs in the Hotshot Trailer's like your's and even the car hauler's. Cause they are easy to use strapping down vehicle's. Jesse uses safety glasses like your's and even uses a bandana around his mouth. Or uses a face shield for cutting stuff up. When I started driving Jesse had mechanics fix the slagging in the linkage and replaced everything and it turns excellent. Jesse showed me the basics on how he chain's down load's. And even strap's time down. We like chaining down load's cause strap's they get loose easy. I watched him doing it one time. And I been doing it ever since. I bet the tight spots that he can reach or climb under. We have never ever seen sweeper's like that before.
thank you for your service. I also served in the AF
N I C E truck !!! Nice channel too. Can you tell us what driving app you use on your cell in the Truck ! Thanx, Keep on truckin'
Drive safe Steve
You wouldn’t want to run an old auto trans anyway, I run an Eaton 10 every day but in the future I want to run them all… btw you drive my dream truck… btw how good would it have been if the trailer to this load to have been pulled by a k100, that would have been picture worthy
I try to keep my comments to myself and listen when I don't have any knowledge on the subject. I might suggest something though. Anyways... on to the next thing.
Thanks for the very recent upload! Btw, loving the videos lately! Keep it up. 🤘
