Great job. The stain on the rear of headliner is from the 3rd brake leaking these 4th gens a known for them leaking. My 2012 is the same way and I only have 45000 miles on it
Can vouch for this. I've seen it on literally every 4th gen
yuppp
Agreed mine was so bad living in Az drying out the foam that I started seeing water drip onto my rear seats And it blew my brake light bulb. Used a hair dryer and dried everything up and thin clear silicone bead all around the light once installed and fixed for life. Just make sure you do a thin clean bead just in case you ever have to replace bulbs and razor blade it out
"MR. CLEAN MAGIC ERASERS" work very well on interior plastic. we buy and sell trucks. many of them are extremely dirty. my wife cleans the headliners with a microfiber rag and a degreaser. its amazing how clean she can get these trucks. nice job on the leather kit. very tedious job but well worth it. i have a couple dodge 3500 trucks as my daily drivers....great engines...not a fan of the truck itself but hard to beat a cummins for pulling and fuel economy. my shop truck is a 2011 with 511,000 miles on it right now and still going.
Torn seats fail inspection? That’s pretty strict.
Imagine a whole country of trigglypuffs
Out of province are a little more nasty
Talk about a money grab by automakers and repair shops. Follow the money. Enough of us in VT complained to our lawmakers about silly strict inspection rules last year and now even a CEL on the dash will still pass.
Yeah really. Never heard that in va
That’s to much government!!!
Awesome man can’t to see if you decide to put a badass flatbed on it !! From North Carolina USA
Great video, I need to do the same to my megacab soon. Where did you get the covers from? Are they OEM, or aftermarket?
Do you plan to build a flatbed for the dually? I would love to see it done...
I don’t know if these trucks come with cabin filters but if it does this one would be a good candidate to replace
Don't come with cabin filters but there is a retrofit kit to add them. Would be a good idea.
Seems like a great place for ram to save a few cents.
You think that your truck is bad but compared to the day that I grew up in, that is a rolls royce of rigs. I love what your doing with the truck. I was surprised to see the mud puddle on the floor from the dirt in the system. Must o been a pipeline truck. I bought one to find out that their practice was to just mount a temporary dash and seats/floor mats and dive them till time to put them back on the market and they would put the original stuff back in all clean and fresh .... but, get this, THEY never changed the pedals or the pads on them. I'm looking at them and they are all worn and off to the side where work boots just tore the shit out of them. I did replace them from a safety factor as your feet slipped on them. I figure that when I researched the truck that it was at a real four hundred thousand mark and not under fifty tho like sold as but you can't sue cause of the marketing that they deploy. You look and see a six digit odometer and assume it along with the interior looking sweet. Crap falls out of the dash that well just shouldn't be there. I did get what I paid for as the price reflected but it was far from newso just slammed new eng/trans in. Quicker than crying about it and I get a nice ride for well a good many driving miles that will if ever sold be told that it was what it was. Good video an no boring stretch and tear em and then cuss some more as we do but would never admit to. Keep em coming
Awesome job ! It looks really good 👍🏻 this reminds me of a truck what I bought... man I don’t know what was worse ! The dirt or the smell....😷😅
First 👍🏻 hell yeah new upload !
Baby wipes and windex do miracles on vehicle plastic
Windex is great for sun visors too... windex was the most expensive cleaning product to develop ever.
I work out of the detail shop at a car dealership. We use glass cleaner for pretty much all interior plastics (center console, door cards, etc). Spray it down and after a minute or two, wipe it off with a microfiber shammy. Sometimes it takes some elbow grease or plastic brush to get it perfect but it works well and smells good.
You have r12? We (US) haven’t had r12 in 20 years
Been the same here in Canada, we generally have very similar environmental laws to you.
So did he just damage his ac? R12 and 134 have different oils.
R12 is super hard to find here in the States and super expensive!
I think the can is compatable with r-12 and other types, I've seen the cans at local auto stores.
r12 is compatible with r134a systems. just not used commonly anymore.
That Sprite bottle to catch the dirty water killed me 😂😂🤘🏻
Also do a long bed conversation... that would be killer!!
If ya take a clothing steamer to those seats you can work the wrinkles out and get them smooth.
The water stains on the headliner are from the 3rd break light leaking same thing happened to my truck
Working on your truck, Metallica blasting, that's a good day.
Good to see a neglected truck being brought back to life awesome work man
Wow, Great Job!! Love the easy fix for the A/C! Plan on making a custom bed for it?
bless the lord 2 videos in one week.
I thoroughly love your videos. By far my favorite.
Keep up the great work!
Man must be nice to still be able to run R12A, we cant here in the states we have to run r134 which just isn't as cold and tends to leak
What did you clean the headliner with?
Holy crap man, I wouldn't wanna open those diffs up haha.
Take out the glove box.. you’ll find an area all ready marked to be cut out for a cabin filter..Ram skimped out and quit installing them.. You can get the filter and the door online for $30ish Keep this from happening again..
its from the 3rd breaklight leaking ...
Wrong refrigerant lol
love the Metallica through the whole video lol keep up the good work man love the content
I'm old enough to remember Napster. So don't say anything or they'll DMCA this video.
You totally have my playlist running in your shop!
Man all you need to pass inspection in the states is lights to work and a damn horn. That's crazy up there lol. Now everyone gonna jump on here like "no they check your exaust, ball joints, windows "yata yata. I mean no shit if you go to some big fancy place like a dealership. I go to the guy up in the "holler" that you sling a few extra bucks to and you've known forever and they pass it unless it's just plain junk or something lol. Anyways that's crazy. Now that I live in Kentucky we dont even have inspection stickers lol
My driver seats the same way. I think its a Dodge Ram thing because every truck ive seen thats got some miles the seats the same.
Great Work dude! I wonder if a Magic Eraser might saved you some hours on that interior cleanup. Sure lots neglected trucks out there.
Alright so you can't pass inspection if your seats ripped but you can just buy r12 refrigerant at the store. Canada in weird but awesome at the same time.
Can’t wait till you make some tunes for this beast
Fast orange hand cleaner works wonders on cleaning interior panels and white seats. ..just wipe with warm water after and buff dry...the pumice really gets into cracks and really works well.
Good job...where did you get the hog ring pliers and bad of rings?? Where did you get the bottom seat cushion?
Amazon
I don’t have a Cummins nor do I ever intend to buy one. That being said your videos are awesome and entertaining. Your obviously very skilled and talented. Keep up the good work, like what your doing.
Hey long time no see!! Just a update the 4bt xj is no more .. She took a big! Drink of water ... Underestimated a huge mud hole and it sunk a 6in lift and. 35s.. All the way up 2 the hood haha shoulda invested in a snorkle... But the hole i went in was all fine .. The only spot i didnt depth check is what sunk the ole pig:((
Drain the fluid and keep rippin it. Cummins dont mind a little water
@@Cumminslife my fault on not elaborating .. Bend rods and the rod knocks make it sound like a old diesel train .feels like the rods are doing a knock knock joke and ready to make their own door( on the block ) to come out LOL but already found another thats being shipped and this one has the pump on it also so ill have a spare or if u know any one need of a 4bt pump
@@Cumminslife how have u been bud? Glad to see the progress come along way since the beggining .. Hope it keeps growing
headliner stains are from the third brake light. silicone it in
Air conditioner or heat pump foaming coil cleaner. Cleans radiators super fast. Found at commercial plumbing stores.
James Endicott strong stuff so be prepared
Use the evaporators coil cleaner it is mild but the condenser coil cleaner will cleaner
Just fyi. Those trucks like mine did not come with a cabin filter. Stupid as that is
Even though this video is over 4 years old, would you put a link to these new covers? or send it to me in a comment response.
I have that truck and left the back window open and had the same stain. Had it detailed and they got it out. Many miles later lots of rain and never a stain again. Hope it helps you.
Tail gate and body correction

3rd brake light is causing the water stains in the headliner. Just throw a new seal on it.
Next time for the center console and door panels use me clean magic eraser. They will clean just like you did and only take 5 minutes
Nice work it looks great. I would almost bet money that your evaporator is leaking that's why it was all dirty and no ac.
Ya we will find out soon. Seems to be holding pressure still.
Awesome as usual I'm going to clean my hvac this weekend because of this video, it will be watched at least five more times, Haha
Very cool truck thanks for sharing your video !
The new shop is looking good! Blasting some good metal too :)
Does*
The Vinyl floor mat is a cheap investment for your truck, dump the carpet
Awesome video it's taking shape love the new seats keep the videos coming 🙋♂️
Wont pass inspection with a torn seat? What the hell is that about? Never heard that before
Definitely worth investing in, nice truck coming along

Were did you buy the seat covers . Ive always been interested in doing this.
They are made by Katzkin 👌👌
@@Cumminslife
Thanks !!
Keep the vids coming man🤙
how do you usually deal with cleaning headliners? thanks, great video
Love the choice in music in th background. Great job on the seats loving the truck more each time i see it keep the vids comming
Love your videos man! Question, dos it have any blow by?
It's obvious you like what you do you do a really good job
awsome i want to rebuild now
Where did you get your leather seat covers? I need to do it to my 06
That’s a great job, thanks for the video.
Man the truck looks way better than what it use to be 😂😂😂
Great videos man. Love watching them.
Great video, as always you make shit look easy.
i thought Canada got rid of inspections
You going to go with EFI Live? i have the same truck, got the untunable Aisin transmision which sucks. Love my dually
Yeah I have been working on efi live and hp tuners calibrations for it.
@@Cumminslife Got efi on mine from a lets say not so good programmer im thinkin..lugs/surges up hill really bad with a tiny bit of throttle at low speed but the worst of is it if i accelerate hard and take my foot off the peddle for half a second or so it stays on the throttle. I have no idea why, obvs programming but the shady guy who did it has vacated his shop...i have no clue where he is.
So if your ever around the Kamloops area or north in Clearwater and wanna re program me i have cash in hand haha. Great vids btw ive been a subscriber for a while now.
Great video as always! You make it all look easy.
Build a deck for the mega!
Also the evaporators are notorious for leaks
Blasting Metallica my dude!!!
I didn't see a link to the seat covers. Is there one?
Nice, that thing is coming along
Where did the seat covers come from I need some
They don't need a/c in canada
Where did you get the leathers from?
You need a another cam with a tripod.
Awesome job! Would’ve never figured out the center fold down, will you be building a flat bed for this truck?
Great job. Install cabin air filter.
Judas Priest FTW!
Excellent content...
Insane transformation. Didn't know you could buy just a cushion and a cover like that.
i fucking love this channel
I've found that laying a tarp in the floorboard & using a water hose works great for cleaning ac evap
Where did u get the covers from
Mothers VLR and a magic eraser for the doors works great. Folex for the headliner
Nice. Now polish those wheels clean the engine,scrub the floors and wash the truck
Can’t believe the whole won’t pass inspection with torn seat
Hole*
Awesome job!
I have a 2003. How much for the leather seat covers and where did ya get em?
This was neat 🍻
Great video. I'm getting me some seat covers like that!!!
Definitely worth it if yours are beat. feels like a new truck now
Good luck
