Hey Bruce it looks like it's the foot valve, just check on the heal of it that there's no crap built up there preventing it releasing properly or that the pin it hinges on isn't tight before you go to the expense of changing it, I hope this helps. 😊

The 12/12 inspectors sticker should have spoken volumes lol

Man the camera guys laugh makes my day lol 😂

The frame looks cooked from the rear of the truck. Both rails are rolled out. And I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure putting water in these things can cavitate the liners.

Just to pass on something I learned about Superclean, in the concentrated form mixed with water, in a sprayer will remove layers of skin from your hands (wear gloves) it will also discolor (yellow) painted surfaces if applied in the sun on hot surfaces. It dulls polished Alcoa Wheels (acid) and if it's left on too long it will remove paint, I learned this washing the exterior of my new Cargomaster trailer, to remove the lot rot, gray rain streaks from the sides. Remember, if your hands are itchy and burning, you're losing skin! Love the content, keep em spinning!

That freight train noises you hear is the diaphragm on the bottom of the air dryer sticking. Needs service or a new air dryer.

Awesome video Bruce thanks for sharing, buddy 👍

Those Mercedes engines are awesome, great power, reliable but they do need regular maintenance. It's a good fixer uper! It does need some paint on that rusty frame but looks good for a starter truck.

You are literally the only person that thinks thoes are reliable..they kill the value of trucks and people usually stay away for good reason.

You should check the front brakes

The super clean applied to the dry side of the hood looked like it stained it as compared to when you applied it to the other side after it had been watered down

I really like those mercedes engines. They have really good torque, great on fuel and its lightweight. Not much for horsepower stock but that engine has been used in race trucks in Europe. They sound really good no muffler.

Those Freightliner Columbia cabs are real bad about clogging the radiator with dust. I have had 3 of them and we had to pull the cooling package and give them a thorough cleaning, on all 3, about every 2 years. I would love to come and help on some of these trucks. I live 2 hours from you at least until November.

Always major life motivational to me..... Salute , blessings to everyone grind and motivations....

Somebody has already gotten the goodie out of that one. Lol

You should sign that helmet with a gold metal flake paint pen. It might turn up on Pawn Stars with the seller wanting $25,000.

If you want to engage that pto you have to push the clutch in, engage the pto then let the clutch out

You will have a beautiful looking truck. Just put the other style of hood on it. They will work, me and brother did one and it looks great

Great video Bruce

When jumping you don’t hook up to 1 battery. Hook 1 cable to the first battery and the other cable to the last battery so you get all the battery power including the jump box to start the trucks.

Hi Bruce not a bad truck needs little work I think good profit off of it did I hear you rite you are picking up B-BLUE-C cool can’t wait take care stay safe G.Whyte

Might be worth taking the gifts out of that newer freightliner and putting them in your old cab over. Then it would have blocked in differentials. Maybe even the transmission if it's like an 18 speed.

Best workhorses. Those 12.8 Mercedes benz diesels aee underrated

Bruce I know what it's like to Have Problems My Car Needs to be Fixed And I have Trucks on my truck Simulator Game That needs Repairs Keep Up the good work Billy Lizza Uniontown pa

I had one of them b4 with that same engine they have 6 individual heads on them and the head gasket always goes out on one of the heads causing coolant leak pop that side cover off you can see which one it is

So how hard is it gonna be to put those locking rears in the Pullin truck?

I seen you cruising up i75 in Georgia yesterday

Bruce check the right front break I you said it was smoking so your break may be hanging up up front

I know freightliner get alot of shit. But I'd drive one with a 12.7 60 series on it. Easy to work on and can make 550hp out of them with tuning and bypass the biometric pressure switch.

keep the clips coming

You oughta make fixing trucks to sell a regular part of the channel

Power wash and polish the wheels that will make run better lol

I love the freightliner columbia take good care of it please

Nice man 👍

Hear that noise 😂😂

Man that camera man took his life in his hands when he walk in front of the tires while it was hung on the handler. Sketchy AF😅

Hey Bruce what was the name of that spray cleaner you used there please mate ?

Use those axles for your pulling truck roll that challenge baby !

Looks like the rear brake adjustment is only traveling about a 1/4in I’d back off the rear slacks a little bit they seem adjusted up a bit tight

good old West Virginia tractor right there

You should throw the helm away as it is not safe to use anymore. The polystyrene inside shrinks as it ages and hence the exp date. Some one might try and use it one day so cut the straps off.

I thought the impact absorbing polystyrene goes hard over time which is one reason why they have an expiry date.

A Mercedes 4000. Congrats on the boat anchor! 😂

Seems like that super clean had a bad reacting to the sap or whatever residue that was built up on the hood and it ended up staining it

I wonder if the wheel bearings need to be checked or replaced?

So where did the guy that was walking to his truck disappeare to or did u make a clean cut in the video

Pretty cool 😅

Did you ever have all the damages done by that custom shop fixed on the 389? Never saw a follow up.

white collar is back!!!!!!! lol

is it a mbe926 or what is the engine in it

MB engines are super rare to not work, so its not problem with the engine itself. MBs are pretty much the world's most reliable engine, yea maybe because MB is the first automobile company that was made...

Id use those rear axles on the Pulling truck. Even though its a turd maybe it would be an ok parts truck😂

Trucks like this are popular here in the Philippines

I drove a Columbia for about 6 months before my International LT. Always iffy if the freightliner would would even even make it back. I prayed that it would burn. Total POS.

Ok you win 🥇 # Ryan is the new boss now Ryans name means little king 👑 Sorry Bruce 😂

You should go back to doing videos like your older ones, out on the road picking tracktors up

Steal the axles for the pulling truck

Hey Bruce see the front headlights if you want them to look like new give them a good clean and spray clear coat on them in spray can It will bring them up like new

didnt you check coolant before you left isnt that one of the first things to check on a vehicle you buy

I didn't know helmets had expiration dates. Well all of mine are junk😂 it's OK I don't ride anymore .too dangerous for an old guy like me. Learn something new everyday.

Remember! Good equipment never sells

Should take the rear ends and put them under your pulling truck

😊

Don’t sell it just get a new paint job and put some good stacks on there. Maybe make it a little bit longer.

You could turn that Freightliner into a burnout a vehicle

On today's episode of will this P.O.S. start lol
