LOVE IT J.C. "go back to your job as a WalMart greeter"

We are glad this Isuzu showed up. You went into detail explaining what you found. We gain a lot from that. Thanks

Just found one of your videos.... I'm not a mechanic but am mechanically inclined. That said tons of appreciation with the little nuggets of trade secret type info that people like me done know. Thank you, I hope I can find all your videos as informative as this one.

Hi again, Roy from down under , I have had these model Isuzus for the last 15 or so years, they have performed well and servicing has been simple , quick and without issue.Wheel changing never an issue even with the the rear lug nuts the way they are. There are a great many of these on the road today dating back to the beginning of this cab style in @ 1995, which I have one still going strong with nearly 700,000 Kim's on board. I cannot say enough good things about these. The motors go for a long time without problems. I think that our climate is conducive to their longevity, and we really do not have too much of a rust issue here. It is cold here where I live but not such cold that it affects steelwork and the body and chassis . Keep up all the good work, Thanks Roy

As usual - doing a proper job, no cutting corners, well done JC, WILL BE A GOOD TRUCK WHEN DONE FOR A BUYER.

even after all these repairs, the truck is still profitable (and i do figure my time in it as a cost of the repair). i do my best to do a good thorough check on the truck. it wont be new when i am done but i will do my best to make it safe and reliable.

Your skills are really great J.C I appreciate your attention to detail and thanks for sharing your know how with us.

I’m so great full that here in sunny Queensland Australia 🇦🇺 that we don’t experience the massive rust issues you have. Just poor maintenance of drivers

Good job looking foreword to part two! Always learning from your channel thankyou:)

I really enjoy the work you do on your trucks. Very educational and fun to watch JC. At least when you’re done with each project you can rest easy because you get each project done the right way.

no. i have not videoed any of the smaller trucks lately. i do have my 2011 dodge crew cab dually that is going to need a bunch of work later this fall. it should be a huge project.

We get the isuzu trucks out here in New Zealand too and i'm very familiar with most of them. They are good and last quite well giving good service. We don't have salted roads where i am in Auckland so we don't get problems like that out here until they are over 20 yrs old. Always put never-seize on the treads and hub. A lot of the time Japanese trucks need brake adjustment once a year or you get a lot of pedal travel. I had a truck a few months ago with worn king pins that needed replacing. An old Mitsi canter with 26mm? pins. Some days you should stay at home pull the covers over you head and tell the world to go away in no uncertain terms. This was one of those days. I had to replace a stud and wheel nut after snapping one off with the rattle gun. I got the wheels and hubs and brakes off and tried undoing the taper locking stud in the axle. I have a tool that you screw onto the stud and bash it and the stud usually comes free. This one didn't because someone had put it in crooked and it had hammered it . The head was mushroomed. I had to drill it out and that took a while. We phoned the local truck shop up and got one of the boys over with their 20 ton portable king pin press. "This will be no trouble, out in 2 pumps, works every time" he said and came over set it up and it wouldn't move either one of the king pins. Out with the gas set and torched off the thrust bearings pushed the hub up with the jack. So i had to hacksaw the bottom one, and then the top one. (both sides). No the F*&^$^((N grinder with the cut off wheel wouldn't fit in there. A level of frustration was setting in by this time. So next step take the whole axle out and we tried putting in in our 25 ton press and the middle of the king pins still didn't come out. Down to the engineer with the 2 stage 50 ton press that, shifted it. The rest of the job went perfectly.

I almost bought one very cheap think it didn’t move. Love the variety. Great fix on the brakes. Bet it gets great mpg. Those rotors won’t be cheap.

I like all your videos man keep up the good work

I used to run a fleet of these things, bought by a previous manager. Glad to see them go off to auction!

Nice work on this smaller truck for a change

The "bluing" on the spindle...that shows that there was some bearing heat. I ain't an expert...But I'm sure I remember mechanics tell me that is a tell tale problem with bearing friction from seizing or lack of grease.

I sometimes feel like I’m the only one who cares about doing these jobs right. It’s refreshing to watch you work, and know that you perform repairs 100 percent legit. Don’t know where that box truck was operating but the DOT around here targets them and landscapers for a good reason there trucks are often not safe. That truck had so many violations was Ray Charles inspecting it? No way all that happened in one inspection cycle. The boost leak good find ,that had to be whistling like crazy, that works the turbo so hard it never gets to wastegate pressure so it’s spins it harder.....Those trucks stop marginal at best when new that thing must have been dangerous loaded trying to stop between the frozen king pins and frozen calipers,that thing was just neglected so bad. I’m sure you won’t sell it until it’s 100 percent road worthy and safe...great work JC keep it up and happy 4th of July to you and the family .

I have taken apart several trucks just like this one. They were all street sweepers. The bud nuts gave trouble about coming off, of course. They were pretty rusty from being neglected trucks. I believe those king pins are similar to what the f super duty trucks have, similar axle. Ford also used the backwards torx bolts, though they usually cooperate.

Back in the 80's...inner/outer budd wheel nuts were always an issue . Best way is to back them off a 1/4 turn each all the way around the rim until all inners come loose from the studs . Once the wheels are off..you used a tool that some refer to as a porkchop..it had a cutout the size of the outer nut..the other end of the tool would slip in the hole for the inner nut..take your square drive socket to the inner nut and spin it out..i have the 1 1/2" porkchop..i should get the 41mm one seeing i work on 3 of these type trucks for one customer

it was the shop. regardless of what the owner wants, you have to have pride, integrity and standards in your work. you are either a professional or your not. a professional will never sway from the propper way of doing a repair. even if the owner wanted it as cheap as possible, that doesnt excuse the mechanic from doing it correctly. he could have simply declined to do the job if it didnt pay enough for him to do it correctly.

Yep, lack of never seize and lack of grease will do it everytime. What a previous pathetic brake service you pointed out on disassembly.

Isuzu also has a stamped steel version tone ring. They are insanely difficult to not bend and are over $100 each if they need to be replaced. There's no way around it though, they have to come off to access the bolts that hold the rotor to the hub. There is a stupid special puller, but it's stupid special expensive (like $800+)

these were replacement rotors already. this is why the reluctor ring was bent. someone pried on the ring and bent it. that was the cause of it being loose. these rotors had never been machined. when i measured them for min. thickness and compared to new....they were at o.e. thickness. however, i did end up ordering new rotors as none had the correct tooling to machine these because of how close and wide the hub face was to the rotor.

I will say that you do right

I don't understand these " problems" with Budd wheels. Just go around and loosen each one slightly. As long as you don't hammer on one that the outer nut is loose on, you won't push the wheel stud in. Only issues I ever had was shearing off the square drive on a few occasions. At that point just put an outer nut on and weld it to the inner nut- stud deal
