hey not sure if you have done this before or not but before i use music in our videos i upload some random short video just using the song i'm wanting to use in the video i'm working on but leave it as private on my channel so no one can see it but make it monetized and within a minute or 2 if its copyrighted you will know then you wont have to re edit the song out or do like you had to here and just leave it with no song at all. enjoyed the video

Thanks man, I always use non copyright songs, but is very rare when this happens. And always upload in private also.
I have a 12" extension and a yellow pool ball #1 in my company t880. My A3546 range divider sits just under my shift knob (ball) because that's where it goes. Form FOLLOWS function . 😊😊
The bandanna was a killer touch!! Keep up the good work man! Truck is coming along nicely
Looking good young man!! Your truck has come a long way!! Keep it up love watching the transformation!!
That shifter is so beautiful I love it ❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love this truck. Big fan of those coffin sleepers. I hope i can find one someday.
Came out awesome! I'll definitely have to try this
Great content bro always droppin GEMS!
Damn looks nice! I'm fixing to do the same. Just waiting on my extension. In liking the old style splitter reminds me of the older trucks my pops had.
Good Job. Use to own a T800. Never ever thought about adding anything. You're modifications show that even T8s can be Kool. ! 👍👍😎🏁

A nice finishing touch is a stainless steel jam nut 1/2 × 13 available from the Home Depot. Use a little metal polish on it and it will shine really nice.

Mercade thank you
It looks good
If you use the old locking nut alongside the new one you’ll get a more solid lock, PLUS you’ll get a little more height out of the shift knob. I’m a little bit concerned about the low height of the range selector. It could be at the wrong height for your lines to be snagging on boots/feet, even with the bandanna covering the lines. Maybe put a piece of wire loom (black flexible protective sleeve for electrical) over the bottom to give it more protection. The black shifter extension and the new shift knob look good, and with the red lights on at night it looks even better. 👍🏼
Looks good man

Im straight up subscribing because you a fellow trucker, and you live in my city H-Town. 🤘💯🤜🤛
To each his own. I don't like it but I will like your video have no problem supporting the channel. The reason, why I don't like it, the range selector, is at my fingertip and now I have to reach down for it. As I said to each his own 👍🏾
Badass Bro!! Shout out from the 956.
Back in the day we always mounted the hi low valve very close to the shift knob. That way you can operate the valve with your hand on the knob.
Trucks come a long way!

Nice video driver. Next time just release the air from the lines by pressing brake pedal. I did a conversation on my 13 speed.. and there's a little ball bearing and a spring that can go flying if there's still air in the system.. Look into plastidip for your dash. There's literally hundreds of colors.. the key is applying 5 coats or so to build it up because it's peelable, like vinyl and leaves zero residue if you peel it later. Keep up the good videos
Nice pickup 😲👍
Lol 😂 love the mechanic knowledge I’m installing it how I saw it in a video not sure what line goes where hope it works instead of looking it up on google since google seems to know everything
I’d say another 6 inches should do the work🙏🏻🙏🏻 looks fire 💪🏻🔥🔥
I love the old school range selector. That's retro looking and looks tougher, in my opinion! Makes me want to replace my 5 speed main with a 10 speed overdrive...
Jajajaja te mamaste con la Bandana Good Job Amigo.
Looks great to me fam
Love your truck man. I did this to my day cab but I pushed my air lines through the floor and zip tied the slack to other lines just in case I ever needed to go back to the stock system. But each to their own man the truck is looking awesome and sounds nasty

SUPER NICE; DON'T FORGET THE RANGE SELECTOR.👍
We have that old shifter in our international s series dump truck. Idk what number it is but it has a 8 speed with a 350 cummins maybe.
The 75 Chrome shop sells a chrome version of the old style hi low valve. Buts it’s $200 sadly. Love your shifter.

@@Grtruckingdemolitionllc I was watching the video and I bought the same shifter extension as you. At first I just had the 6" and i was like ok still short. So got me the 12", and took off the 6". Felt better right, so i was like let me see how it feels adding the 6" back. Well let me tell you. People say its stupid, or it has no purpose. They are wrong. It looks cool, and my shifting is way better. Not saying I'm a perfect shifter, but now I shift so much smoother. Goes into gear easier, and no grind. If I was you I would add the 4". Anyways appreciate you reading my comments and getting back to me. Keep the rubber side down!! Also following you on IG, look me up when you got free time. My T800 is on there also!!
Hey man can you make a video explaining how do you downshift using the jake brake. I like how you shift with the jakes. I want to get a POV of how you do it. Thought it be pretty cool for others to see as well !
Looks better without the rag

You may want to move the screw of that clamp to the front of your shifter. Otherwise it could catch your jeans or hand while driving. Even with the bandanna. Nice progression on the truck!
