Even with the repairs that come with owning an older pre-emissions rig they’re still cheaper and more reliable than late model smog engines provided that they are taken care of. 👍

That setup you have is one of the best looking rigs I’ve ever seen I love that truck and trailer combo that red and black is just awesome 😎

Nice work, Ezra! Old Red is a true beauty, all your hard work is really showing! I hope the new lines serve you well.

The more I watch your videos the more I’d like to be a mechanic rather than drive my truck. It’s just so peaceful being at home in the shop working on trucks all day instead of fighting tooth and nail out here to make a buck and not get in trouble.

Hi nice job like o way on the air blither ,nice to see old red looking sharp congrats n the job you done ,I’m learning from you thanks again n keep videos coming 👍

Ezra, you do know you put the air lines on backwards! The soft "hand saver" goes on the glad hand end! Don't feel bad, Twin Sticks did the same thing!

Ole red looks so damn good!!! Whole setup is looking good EZ, you my man are a class act with a classy ride to match my friend. I guess busy season is getting ready to start up for ya?!?!

Nice upgrade EZ! Smart! Preventative maintenance is key to fewer headaches.

Your a hard working man my brother 💪, if I were you I'd start getting employees, at some point in your life, your going to have to slow 🐌 down.

Lol yeah. It was actually a lot of work for a few second joke. Had to study it, learn it play it and record it.

I love your videos and I've loved following the build of Old Red. Keep up the good work and thanks.

Hi bud love all of your videos old red keep them coming and aslo I build a scale model like old red in 1.24 scale looks just like your truck

That truck has improved mightily since you bought it. Thanks for sharing

Nothing like giving the old pogo stick a rub down. 😂🍻

Man everything is just about brand new on old red looking d good its amazing how good it looks

And I won't back down Song that Tom petty and the heartbreakers Sing that u play in your vido some times I hear that song all the time at work on the radio 📻 great song 👍 and is way cooler looking the most of the newer trucks now days love the vidoes

Little things for prevention. Most don't bother with till it breaks. Neat and tidy. Very nicely done.

The truck and trailer sure looks good!!!!!

Excellent video Ezra top job thanks for your time and consideration regards from England 🇬🇧🇺🇸🚛🚛🚛🚛

Nice job, you could mount plug holder on your trailers that don’t use the 2nd plug so it’s just not hanging there.

Nice Install and thanks for sharing!

Ezra, this is off topic but you should check out Edison Motors in Canada, they are a group of trucking engineers building hybrid power systems for old iron. A small cat generator under the hood, a battery bank, electric motors on the drive axles, regenerative braking, they have a 1962 KW retrofitted. Their goal is old iron with locomotive technology, apparently the motors produce torque at the wheels unlike anything our big diesels can match. They are focusing on the logging industry in British Columbia currently but they are looking to expand into OTR trucks in North America.

Yes sir nice work 👍

One good looking combination great video.

That is a good looking rig, you did an excellent restoration

Definitely buying some from your link soon. I almost bought them the other day. Glad I waited

Nice job on the airlines they look good👍🏼

These are great videos

Great content.

keep the great work man hope you have a great day

G’day Ezra Old Red is a real credit to you, to think she was in a paddock and was a mess to how you have her now it’s a great example of your skills, you have done a remarkable restoration. John

Paint the Mack with that paint scheme ; had to mention!

Lookin large 🔥😎

Love the music choice for cleaning your stick lol keep it up your true

You did a good job Army place in the airline's on the truck

Yes, she is looking good. Previous reply was correct handles should be on glad hands.

the truck turned out nice

Your trailer looks awesome

Nice choice of drum beat while cleaning the pogo stick.

Perfect!

The last set that I bought that were that style I used the blue and red line protectors as handles on the glad hand end of the lines. If your lines are set up properly, you shouldn't need to have added protection on the truck end of the lines. Just watching you struggle to hook up the airlines to the trailer reminded me of the set that I had. Hope this helps.

I'm with you, I think he put them on backwards!

You installed the new Airlines backwards. the Spring strain reliefs are supposed to attach the truck side and the red and blue rubber strain reliefs are for the glad-hand sides. The rubber red and blue strain relief act like handles making it easier to rotate the glad hands when connecting to the trailer.

I feel like I've heard that sound clip elsewhere when you cleaned the pogo stick 😂😂

Hew buddy hope you an family have a great week end an ole red buddy

Hey buddy turn them around those handles go to gladhands to prevent breaking hose lol ain't none of us perfect

I love your videos EZ, keep them coming, by the way I think you hooked those air lines backwards ( not a big deal, they work just fine)

Nice

Looking good. Thought I heard the ole girl squeal briefly at start up

Question about your grain trailer...why Tempte? Why not Wilson, Jet, etc.? Just looking for comments about the various brands....

@Ezrider359

2 жыл бұрын

I think Wilson's are a slightly better biult trailer but they are a bit heavier. I bought the temptie mostly because I'm more familiar with temptie and it was a used extremely clean nicely optioned 1 owner used trailer that was well looked after by the last owner. I would probably look very hard at Wilson if I was looking to order a bran new trailer but I wouldn't rule out temptie either both are very good trailers

Those airlines might not last as long . Two years ago I got a set of the same brand and in three months they started to dry rotting. Phillips are double the money but will last way longer

Criticism isn’t received here well, but the strain relief was actually handles for the glad hands , you put them on backwards. Most videos are interesting I’ll keep watching.
