I may have missed it but is there any reason I can’t use the tach as a tach as well ?
@DieselFuelNetwork11 сағат бұрын
It can be used as your primary tach. The only reason I set mine up this way is I didn't want that particular tach on the dash. It's way too big and doesn't have the look I want. I already had the other tach in the dashboard, but that one doesn't have a shift light, so it couldn't be used for my limiter.

Instead of complaining how you are not into it get the right pipes to begin with. It is not that expensive. Anytime you hack something together it will never look right.
@DieselFuelNetworkКүн бұрын
I had to go back and watch. One thing to consider is that this machine flexes quite a bit when off-road. So I really prefer to have the exhaust sections connected with flex pipe. Any other type of flex joint would not look right and is more expensive. This exhaust system is basically what I had before stretching the frame and is made up of harley drag pipes I got for free. The rear section over the tire is exactly how I want it to look. Thanks for watching and commenting

Has anyone been able to find a mercury steering wheel or a similar style like the one Gary got from ebay? I've been looking and not easy to find. Gary - what is the diameter of that boat steering wheel from the mercury? I think I've found something we can use on our builds - google up tractor steering wheels. They look a lot like Gary's steering wheel and I'd like to know the diameter so I can get the same sized one as his.
@DieselFuelNetwork2 күн бұрын
My steering wheel is 14.5" When I found it, I think I just looked up "vintage tractor steering wheel" or "tractor steering wheel" on eBay. The seller didn't actually know what it was from. They had it listed as "Vintage custom hotrod steering wheel." I have found similar wheels from old tractors on eBay. I've noticed that sometimes they don't show the diameter, and you would have to contact the seller. I got lucky with mine because it was only $10 and has a metal center.

Gary - you've inspired me to build. I've scanned facebook marketplace and last weekend I drove 1000 miles to collect some mowers. I stripped down a mower yesterday and those craftsmen mowers are quite simple. I had an idea - if you take 2 frames, you should be able to cut the front off of a 2nd chassis just behind the axle mounting point and bolt the front end of one to the front end of the other - front to front like a head-on collision. The holes line up. Once bolted, it could be welded up and then it allows you to use the stock axle mounting point from the 2nd frame - just in reverse. It will stretch the front out a bit more, but it might make a simpler way for someone to stretch the front axle and still use the factory tilting axle. Love your channel - haters gonna hate so don't focus on them. Just run your channel and ignore the comments including this one.

The truck was hung up, thus why she was only digging deeper holes. He shouldn’t just kept reving the engine. By spinning tires more. Making it worst. Also look like he had bad tires on back. Which had no traction. He Should put some hard dirt/gravel to fill the hole, Jack the truck up at front. Fill them up, let truck back down. Then Jack up back. Fill the holes. Then could slowly rolled away. Weight on truck back would have also might helped some, deflating back tires some maybe also helped. Lived on small horse farm for 25+ yrs. been in my share of stuck with farm trucks or tractor. We even at one time had old Ferguson 2Wheel driver tractor. I’ve had her stuck more few times in fields. And no the Ferguson didn’t have bucket. Just blade in back and a lot weight in blade to help with grip.
@DieselFuelNetwork5 күн бұрын
Most of what you're saying is true. Except the rear tires aren't "bad," they're just not aggressive traction tires. They're all position road tires. More revving definitely wasn't helping, but it just felt good out of frustration, lol. I didn't have gravel, though I did put some of the driveway gravel under the rear left dual that was spinning. I like your thorough assessment. Thanks for commenting

@@DieselFuelNetwork No problem. Not trying to be rude, just given some pointer for ya. Ya my parents had owned 5 acres of horse farm house (built in 1980’s). we had anywhere from 3 to 4 horses. Sometime we board a horse for a neighbour. That old Ferguson tractor we had was from like 1950’s, thing was gutless, prob only 20 HP gas. 4 speed manual with H/L gear box. This back early 90’s. We couldn’t afford diesel at the time. We also had later bought a 2001 diesel 24 Hp Kobuta tractor 4x4. Got her stuck more then few times. Tires she came with only turf tires so they were useless in snow or wet mud,even with 4x4 engaged. My dad later upgrade to huge aggressive Truck mud tires. Made HUE difference. We also had old 1986 F150 4x4 302 v8 5 speed manual truck with locking hubs. Leaned how shift gears on her, driving in the field. Got so many times stuck in field when dumping Horse manure. We upgrade her better mud tires. Made huge different so could do my job. When winter came. We got snow tires. We moved into farm houses in 1990. Then parents got too old. They later sold back 2016. So about 25+ yrs of working on farm, getting stuck All kinds of farm equipment/trucks/tractors. Yeah fully understand want stomp on it just take out some frustration, but yah it’s wrong thing to do when don’t have proper tires. TIRES do matter a lot, having correct one make huge difference. Here in Alberta Canada we get some very Huge snow storms. I Remember one year, dad had sold his 86’ F150 4x4. He Picked up Chevy S10 5 speed manual with small four-cylinder diesel so better on fuel mileage for when he drove to work. My dad worked in city and it was about 45 min drive from farm to work. He was heavy duty mechanic. One winter storm, We got so much snow. The truck was buried up to the roof. All was their was huge snowbank Lol. S10 was Gone lol. I Had get Kubota out from garage to dig out of snow, just so we could go get our mail. Sorry for rambling on. BUT Tires do make huge different. Anybody who tells you that “All season tires” are fine for winter or if your driving muddy Conditions are WRONG. One day they may save your life and aggravations. Trust me on this.
@DieselFuelNetwork5 күн бұрын
@@SireDragonChester All good. I love the story's. I definitely agree about the snow tires. I'm in NY and I'm a huge advocate for dedicated snow tires, even if you have 4WD or AWD. Years ago I actually drove a foxbody mustang 5.0 through the winter and had snow tires on it. I would go out to the Catskills to drive the mountain roads when it snowed. Ever since i always get snow tires in winter. My Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 AWD was incredible on snow tires. Like an overgrown rally car. The tires on my truck are what were on it when I got it. I will definitely be getting some more aggressive traction tires when I replace them.

press the brake and stay on the gas till the other side starts to spin that is on the dry ground and you may have to start turning the steering wheel hard right and hard left till you get the traction to transfer to the dry side that isn’t spinning and you may have to press the brake harder than you might think to make the dry side start turning to get you out but I’ve had to use the technique to get myself in stuck a number of times even in a Full side Tractor trailer rig and also in pickups .

More revving definitely wasn't helping, but it just felt good out of frustration, lol. I didn't have gravel, though I did put some of the driveway gravel under the rear left dual that was spinning. I like your thorough assessment. Thanks for commenting
@@DieselFuelNetwork No problem. Not trying to be rude, just given some pointer for ya. Ya my parents had owned 5 acres of horse farm house (built in 1980’s). we had anywhere from 3 to 4 horses. Sometime we board a horse for a neighbour. That old Ferguson tractor we had was from like 1950’s, thing was gutless, prob only 20 HP gas. 4 speed manual with H/L gear box. This back early 90’s. We couldn’t afford diesel at the time. We also had later bought a 2001 diesel 24 Hp Kobuta tractor 4x4. Got her stuck more then few times. Tires she came with only turf tires so they were useless in snow or wet mud,even with 4x4 engaged. My dad later upgrade to huge aggressive Truck mud tires. Made HUE difference. We also had old 1986 F150 4x4 302 v8 5 speed manual truck with locking hubs. Leaned how shift gears on her, driving in the field. Got so many times stuck in field when dumping Horse manure. We upgrade her better mud tires. Made huge different so could do my job. When winter came. We got snow tires. We moved into farm houses in 1990. Then parents got too old. They later sold back 2016. So about 25+ yrs of working on farm, getting stuck All kinds of farm equipment/trucks/tractors. Yeah fully understand want stomp on it just take out some frustration, but yah it’s wrong thing to do when don’t have proper tires. TIRES do matter a lot, having correct one make huge difference. Here in Alberta Canada we get some very Huge snow storms. I Remember one year, dad had sold his 86’ F150 4x4. He Picked up Chevy S10 5 speed manual with small four-cylinder diesel so better on fuel mileage for when he drove to work. My dad worked in city and it was about 45 min drive from farm to work. He was heavy duty mechanic. One winter storm, We got so much snow. The truck was buried up to the roof. All was their was huge snowbank Lol. S10 was Gone lol. I Had get Kubota out from garage to dig out of snow, just so we could go get our mail. Sorry for rambling on. BUT Tires do make huge different. Anybody who tells you that “All season tires” are fine for winter or if your driving muddy Conditions are WRONG. One day they may save your life and aggravations. Trust me on this.
@@SireDragonChester All good. I love the story's. I definitely agree about the snow tires. I'm in NY and I'm a huge advocate for dedicated snow tires, even if you have 4WD or AWD. Years ago I actually drove a foxbody mustang 5.0 through the winter and had snow tires on it. I would go out to the Catskills to drive the mountain roads when it snowed. Ever since i always get snow tires in winter. My Jeep Grand Cherokee V8 AWD was incredible on snow tires. Like an overgrown rally car. The tires on my truck are what were on it when I got it. I will definitely be getting some more aggressive traction tires when I replace them.
That poor gen 3’s giving that behemoth all she’s got 😂
Hahaha, sure is. I didn't get it on film, but when we first hooked it it up, it was really surprising how much it moved the truck on the first attempt.
@@DieselFuelNetwork I have 2nd gen which is weaker and ive pulled a 14klb trailer 😂 i believe lil yotas just have the gears for it regardless of power
That v twin sounds good man..
Yikes.
She aint got no gas in it😅
Get a shovel sucks but I done the same thing
I chain off so Mary solid hook until you duly wheels he's out on your question please help right out
Just keep doing what your doing. Great television....
I keep a chain in all my vehicles, from the Ranger all the way up to tractors and the F-450 dump truck
The reason why I'm asking that watch your videos and so far they are not exciting
I'm sorry to hear that. Send me the link to your KZread channel so I can take a look and see what I can do differently. Thanks
So when are you going to make your videos more exciting then what they are
When I have money, lol. I enjoy making videos. If you don't like them, you don't have to watch. Thank you
I want that truck! Exactly what I'm looking for especially with the dayton wheels which are my favorites
You are the first person to openly appreciate the Dayton wheels. I also love them. They just have that period correct old school look. Keep looking, and you'll find a good deal. When I got this truck, I was looking specifically for a CAT 3208 powered truck. I was really lucky to find a turbo 3208 and in a short wheelbase. Thanks for watching and commenting. And good luck finding a rig. 👍👍
press the brake and stay on the gas till the other side starts to spin that is on the dry ground and you may have to start turning the steering wheel hard right and hard left till you get the traction to transfer to the dry side that isn’t spinning and you may have to press the brake harder than you might think to make the dry side start turning to get you out but I’ve had to use the technique to get myself in stuck a number of times even in a Full side Tractor trailer rig and also in pickups . A limited slip differential needs a little coaxing to get it to help you out sometimes.
Im sorry but you cant park there!!!
😆😁😆
Try going forward😂
Hahaha. Oh, I did. The more I moved, the deeper it sank.
@@DieselFuelNetwork the truck probably weighs 14,000 lb yeah probably with wet soil is probably the reason why it sank so fast LOL
🙃
Is that a Detroit Diesel?
@@user-rq2is6in1s Caterpillar 3208T
Jack up the right front,put block under tire ,pop clutch in reverse
You just hit the nail on the head. Though not shown in this short, that is exactly what we did, and it came out after that. It's shown in the full video on my channel. Thanks for commenting
Next time than a shovel and dig a ramp for the front tires, save me a bunch of times in the mud
Yeah we pretty much ended up doing that. I couldn't fit everything into a short. The full video is up. My friend who does a lot of off-roading was quick with ideas and we got it out
sounds like a 7.3 psd love it
Yeah, I hear that a lot. On video, I agree that it definitely does. Though, in person, it has a unique sound. And when idling next to my friends 7.3PS, you can't even hear the 7.3. Thanks for watching
It's all good what the deal with the new build
Now you know why single axle trucks suck, they often don't have lockers either
Yeah I guess so. And definitely no locker on this one. I suspect if it had a 10ft dump body full of dirt it may have had a better chance...or might have just sunk deeper lol.
Looked pretty hard under the rear might have helped
Sometimes I can get the rear diff to lock up by using the parking brake
@@kennethparker2168 yeah I've done that before lol
Still a cool truck things happen no worries bud... speaking of 2.5 ton Rockwell axles and a divorce transfer case....
Good thing you didn't wash it 😅
😆 hahaha. Yeah, I was thinking that, too.
Hey man, new to channel. What's the mpgs on that roadhog lol. Man can she move lol.
I have an 80 F800….the direct opposite in giddy up and go…4v370…
Nice. I'd love to drive a gas-powered F800 just to know what it's like. My friend had an 80s GMC C60 dump truck with the 366 gas big block and a 5+2 trans and rear. It wasn't bad, but it was definitely slow compared to my truck.
That sounds like a Ford 6.0 powerstroke v8 turbo diesel sounds awesome blowing black smoke 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

Thank you. It definitely sounds more unique in person. Although it definitely sounds cool on video, there's nothing like the deep rumble it makes in person. Thanks for watching
