Don't let the tornados expertly catalog your adult toys!

You know what... This is the 5th video I’ve watched of yours (besides your 7.3 video however long ago), I love your energy and you sir have earned my subscription.

Man, I'm SO stoked to see y'all bust this beast out. I love that y'all put this monster back together. Would be cool to see this thing on person one day. 😏

Great video, and great job on the rebuild!!!!I keep hearing "experts" say not to rebuild wrecked cars, but you do em right,it's worth it with these results!!!!!

576K. My, oh my, you have come a long way. Glad to hear it was only strep throat though. Those headlights are amazing. Can't wait for the finish of your Raptor. It is a beauty. Love ya lots. Till the next time!!

Hey Western glad your feeling better and back at uploading some video content for us. Any plans for another semi build by chance

DONT FEEL BAD. I had strep throat this last week as well. I have to take the whole week off as well, and I got tested for the “you know what”

Think Utah for the off road adventuring, lots of fun here, and not too many trees for the Raptor to have PTSD flashbacks over!

@Westin, I've got those Morimoto lights on my Raptor. Don't forget to remove all the ballast boxes on the back of the lights the boxes are for Halogen conversions. Raptors all come with LEDs and If you leave them in line they will eventually cause you all kinds of weird lighting issues and codes. Been there.

Great job. The driver’s door sure sounded solid when you closed it.

The Raptor is such a cool, mean looking truck. Makes you wonder why GM or RAM have never built a competitor (though I guess a Ram 1500 TRX is in the works). These trucks hold their value really well to, and good luck buying a new one at sticker price apparently; they usually sell above sticker by a tidy margin.

That plastic banding comes loose by hand. Flip it to get to the inside of the plastic where it is joined. Peel back the inside strip from the end.

Great job by team Westen! Not everybody could put that differential back together let alone the rest of the nightmare....

If you heat up the left fender and try to mold it back with your hands you could get it looking good but it won’t be perfect

This is a perfect type of videos for people that love to get dirty working on their cars/trucks absolutely love it ! Keep Up WESTEN !

Looking good! At this point, here in my part of Texas, we would put on a Ranch Hand front bumper replacement with grill guard because of all the deer on our roads. They are heavy duty for sure. I know you set out to return it to stock condition. Living the progress!

I love your videos they’re so awesome, I like that you have a really good craftsmanship and what you do all joking matter aside you produce very good quality videos and very well awesome builds .

The Raptor is looking great. I love how you rebuild wrecked vehicles. Keen it up Western.

Glad to see a vid. Thought maybe you gave up. Sorry to hear you been sick. Hopefully you feel better. After seeing those headlights you do. Truck has came along way. I no it ended up being more than you thought it was going to be in the beginning. But you have done it.

Looking good that Raptor. I'm 67 years young, am I too old for a new pet raptor? I know it's too tall for this old guy to get up into. I bet that the seats are nice and comfy and the ride is it soft and cozy like the 95 Buick Roadmaster I once owned. I don't think that the misses would go for a new truck rather than a newer home, moving out of the suburbs and back into the country. Wait a minute, in the country, you can hunt raptors there. Maybe I can still get one.

Westen, I'm turning my bell notification off! It's no use to me! It just takes too darn long to let me know. I've watched your last three videos within 15 minutes of them being uploaded by finding thems myself. Love your videos keep up the great work!

How bout buying an 8 foot bed from another PU and cut / extend the new frame.. You get frame material from the old one... a full cab, full bed Raptor would be SO cool!

Want to see the next part of it ,raptor being in its final condition. All clean and ready.

The only thing in El Paso is mesquite bushes and cactus. If they hit a tree probably down in the valley along the Rio Grande. You can try going up near Santa Fe.

Glad to hear you 19 free . Great job on the Raptor

Westen the red bearded wonder and his sidekick Dom continues to amaze us with his KA wisdom. What to roll. Great job

Please get a long travel Baja race kit for the suspension and a cage or tube chassis and make it a full street legal prerunner

Everyone should enjoy life as much as you. Love your videos.

Coming together beautifully!!!

Glad your feelin better.....your videos keep the night entertainin.....see ya in the next one

I got 2 favorite KZreadrs one who fixes destroyed vehicles and one who destroys vehicles 😂

You expertly cataloged that truck across the whole danm shop good hob guys

Hey western when you shoot some paint on the raptor gloss black the fenders and rear tub fenders would make it look as tough as having two sets of nuts ,,, oh by the way you guys are a blast to watch fixing cars y'all do a great job ... As for a bumper bar should wrap the rig in an aluminium bull bar from Australia ..

That whole process look SO labour intensive! Unless you paid like $50 for the wreck I can't see how you make it work on a business level. In any case you seem to have a great gang of cheerful, skillful, loyal assistants there. I got drawn into your vids by the blue Peterbilt restoration (I'm an English Peterbilt nut) but then got kind of hypnotized by the rest of the Cummins swaps etc. My wife doesn't get it at all; I just tell her "guy stuff". Your vids are such fun that they saved me from a bad bout of depression so thanks for that. Well, you guys plus Brian and Stewie! Great stuff.

Look forward to seeing the finished product.

Looks awesome! It will be all worth it when its 100% back together. I would of waited to install those pretty lights after the paint job..

13:20 Don't worry about the trees. Just make sure the horn works and use it if you are about to hit a tree.

Definitely put a move bumper on that it would look sick!!

That one skinny fella on the right wheelwell, y'all need to feed him more

Westin you and your crew are a riot. I always enjoy your videos.

happy that your okay... would have missed your kontent like crazy... your a positive moodbomb for my day...

Ptsd from trees! 😂Greets from the Netherlands Europe. Keep going.

Great build Westen, not sure in what direction you want to take the channel but I think having the price paid, plus parts, and hours of labor would be cool. I know I am curious.

Also to note, glad you're feeling better from strep and glad you don't have the, you know what!

Must be nice to have box bolts that you get from top of box.. Not so for old Dodge trucks..lol Great job Westen!! Looking Great!!!!

Glad u are doing well... Truck definitely came along way... Nice

Those are Morimoto headlights. The best you can get! Glad you did not have Covid-19 Westen!

Hope you feel better and stay safe westen champlin

Got the Raptor looking like a truck again. Can't wait to see it finished. Have you thought of doing some custom Heavy Duty bumper for the front? Might help her get over her PTreeSD.

Get well westen happy your ok was getting worried

That truck came out sweet great nice build.

Glad you're feeling better bud. Happy to here you didn't have the beverage bug.

Dude you are the best .. i never miss your post amazing job on that raptor go buddy go

I’m all about ranch hand bumpers. And the factory wheels look so much better

Looks good! I'm working on restoring my family's 96 f150 farm truck

1:07 Just needs a capital G at the beginning of Reedy Ford 😂

12:25 I’m going to be able to blind GOD going up a steep enough hill. That’s awesome Westin

finally the headlights on and the truck looks amazing !!!!! Nice piece off work Westen and Team !!!!

I can handle Bruce, but I shake my head watching him work. But Westen is on another level, you sir are entertaining. The raptor is looking awesome.

Man what an undertaking ! impressive
