Hey Austin, it's a perfect fixing. Thanks for sharing your obvious talent.

For something you were doing as a “good enough to get us moved” project, it turned out a lot better than that!

Great work, I wouldn't have even known where to start

Kiddos are freaking cute. Good fix on door 👍

Having a side door on the box makes getting in and out so much easier when making deliveries.

Nice, I've often wondered how to do that on my own box truck, good luck with the move...

Another star... great outro little one!

Funny that I happened across your channel on Father's day at work. Something that I have to do with my truck. Bought mine essentially for scrap weight. Didn't have a liftgate but I found one just need to install. Peace.

Nice job, the door works pretty good without the extra hinges.

I was a little nervous the lack of hinges would cause some unforeseen issue, but it's holding up

Great fix!

Thank you for this video I have the same exact problem with my box truck

I have to say i was skeptical at first, but that actually tuned out pretty nice. Good work! Make sure to keep a good amount of marine grease in those lift gate tracks.

I was skeptical too and had no idea how it would turn out. It's been working great so far. I did add grease before final install

Nice work! Your little girl did well with the outro also!

When your ready to take that beast to AZ, let me know. We can convoy. I'm moving there sometime in the near future. Lol.

Great video

Nice job

*NICE FIX*

Looks good to go ...... 👍👍😁👍👍.

I've done one of these. Very not fun. Good on ya for doing it.

Outstanding

Have a couple questions about this: Did the single bottom panel cause any issues with the radius of the track or did it allow it to slip on by because of the wider spread roller location? Pros & cons?

@AustinCoulson

Жыл бұрын

The single panel was fine, but I have since learned that you can buy replacement panels at shops that cater to medium and heavy duty trucks. Woulda been a lot easier to just buy a replacement and only a little more expensive

You're lucky it's just that. I have a trailer from 1965 and the whole door has to be replaced.

I need help replacing my roll up door on my box truck

I realize you were working with what you had, but I think the top of your replacement panel should have been tongue and grooved to mate properly with the panel above it.

@AustinCoulson

I agree. This only had to make it one trip across the Country but tongue and groove would have been way better long term. Surprisingly it hasn't leaked at all.

Do you have a CDL (do you even need one for this size truck)? Have you considered keeping the truck and using it to haul freight as a side job?

I never even thought about calling a trailer shop to try to source individual panels. That woulda been way easier.

Somebody didn't secure their load. Pallet jack rolled back and took out the bottom repeatedly. A garage door gasket would seal it up nice.

Hey brother what’s the dimensions of the panels

@AustinCoulson

I don't remember exactly. I know I had to cut down an 8ft plywood sheet so it was around 7.5' and I think each panel was 12-13"

Looks was too much Trying do it with incorrect panels lot way easier if just buy the panel already ready just to install latchets and roller. Just for might be $60-100 bucks. 🤔
