    Gerald google a company called Kustom Truck. They sell conversion kits for changing out motors. You send them the vin number for the motor that is in the truck and send them the vin number of the motor you want to put in. They will send you all the wiring conversion kit and motor mounts and other parts. They will also need the vin off the truck you want to put the motor in. The company is in Oregon.

I think people tune in not so much for the scenery but for your commentary and your demeanor, You are just a very likeable person. As for content, anything from driving trucks to working on them, or working on those motors or trailers.

    You can change up camera angles. Position the camera in the threshold of the cab and sleeper to show you shifting but can still see the dash and overlook the hood out to the road. How you show getting loaded, you could show dumping. When the time and money comes, upgrade things on the dump trailer such as maybe repaint it black or switch to aluminum wheels to match the truck, adding lights to it. The quarter frame is superior trailer. Able to haul the same as the long ones but fit where dump trucks can. Your in a great market.

    It’s actually a 1/4 frame. All the wheels stay on the ground and the arms still work like a end dump

    Get a 38’ frameless and dump on some of the job sites we all know about 🫣😳🤪😂 hauled many a load of base or caliche here in Texas comes out slow and you have to drag it out of the nose sometimes in some rough places makes your butt draw up 🥵 maybe put a camera on the top of your trailer when you’re dumping or whatever you want your videos are usually interesting anyway so just we will just watch as you do what you want 👍👍😎Rickster retired

    That’s right! I need to get me a new GoPro with a magnet mout and put it in the dog house and show the product coming out. I’d love to have a 38-40ft trailer but these place I go don’t allow for it

    @@thedirtytrucker9633 better off without them there just more risk for no more reward unless they have the stupid bridge laws we had in Texas 🥵I hauled road jobs and everything in the world around here and have watched them almost go over even drove over a hole in a dam from beavers and right rear duels fell in luckily the load of base which is sticky here in Texas was almost out 🥵we had several lease trucks turn over on road jobs from getting off the crown of the road or crappie grader operators making bad pads 👍nope shorter is better does the same job better 😎Rickster

    I had a couple of dump trailers back in the 90s. Always enjoyed it because it was local.
