so bad so today we start a new project this is Jace's truck what is it Jace tell us it's a 92 Dodge Dakota that's basically it all I know about it so it's about a it's a 318 truck so it's a V8 truck it's pretty cool truck our plans with it are we're gonna straight axle it we're gonna do a bunch of stuff to it today we're just uh doing a little easy stuff we're pulling the out because it's bad how much you buy this truck for 900 bucks so got a pretty good deal on it it's not bad supposedly 30 000 miles that's not true it's got a lot more than that it does 133 maybe I would believe but three thousand it's not thirty three thousand so right now we're getting the exhaust out because it's terrible we're gonna pull the out because it's burned up which why not it's our truck then we'll uh we'll carry on but today we're just kind of stripping tearing things apart little pieces next time you see us we're going to be actually building something [Applause] oh that now is good okay one more cut right in the middle hey look at this anyway any welded on the top side like nothing it's not it's not welded you couldn't see the top no you don't need it on top side and we'll cut the muffler off take this full offer get up pry bar tail her down let's pull on it oh there you go you got it [Music] bye hey look Hunter's working where there's proof right there yeah he's doing her we're all supervising get this right here see this [Applause] thank you okay we got it that far now what do you do with it now we can set it down and get the transfer case out and then go more yeah well that drive line come out now okay that's out of the way it's not down and then it's on the Jack it's a little burned up smell it I'm good vice grip garage would taste that and tell me what's wrong with it I think you should try it yeah I think second gear tastes like second gear burned up I don't want to smash my hand why you got a piano recital tomorrow or something he does I do you didn't know I thought you were invited I've heard you play the piano in the front room before I'm not saying it's bad but it's not good it's practice that's what I'm saying oh yeah okay down just to skosh okay hold on hold on make sure everything's unhooked I think I got that we need this part to work again okay I think backwards we're leaking tear it apart yeah we are pulling ladder drain lightly brown all right you can go down under just drop it well we're about to drop but slowly oh come on yeah let's go I'll just pick this side up and pick that side up go outside another case put it under the back we didn't really spill that much leaking out by your feet that sucks grab hold dang it yeah it's stabbed on a rock you have to split the whole bottom out of it full of torque converter out Jason set it in there and drain it set it right in there and let it ran her out job well done you look like a lumberjacker yeah I wouldn't swing that one though swinging once I might go to your neighbor's house all right new day in the shop we got uh maintenance going on on the old camera rig right here so uh we bought this thing so Hunter can get ahead of us get some different shots different angles and stuff but my kids [Music] hey some or all if not well there's one missing she's probably the culprit broke this thing we've got uh no front dig we don't know why we're digging into it we can hear everything working but we're not 100 sure what's going on doesn't feel like it's connected front to back so we're gonna get skid plates off and check this out see if we can figure it out all right the culprit has arrived she was driving it when this happened and she said just made a clunk noise we've started investigating let me see if you can I don't know if you can see up in there but the drive line yeah we'll have to wait you can't see it the Driveline is Twisted in half so we'll get that out look at this in further news Grandma has a broken arm I told her once yes just kidding she uh she's getting old and she uh fell down we're gonna get her a Life Alert button to put on here before long see if there's hot fire but Grandma it's me that answers so uh yeah that happened all right Sean got all the rivets drilled off let's pull this down there's the drive shaft laying there look at that hello look at that twist holy smoked it wasn't that big of a bank yeah that would have been look at that it almost Twisted enough dang how far did you jump it I don't know I don't know how's the other envelope Jace boy she's a little bit it's tight Twisted it off tight holy smokes huh you can see it's all warped on this oh I know I just Twisted it off I mean it have you ever seen anything like this no derby cars out on the front drive line there was some ponies going on yeah I don't know one of you boys knows something all right we're gonna take and cut this off so we can see what the tube is so it's just normal Driveline we're just gonna cut around this Weld and then we'll be able to see what's inside of it it's not very thick I can tell you that there it is right there there's our yolk elbows right back up easy gotta see if I got a piece of tube we don't have any tube that'll work for this so looks like it's going to drive Lane Tech to get some to put on it [Applause] you got it got it [Music] come on where do these go just here we're gonna put them all back on oh on the joints [Music] okay okay [Music] and then it'll come out yeah there's all the bolts I got one on my hands get it out yet any ideas Sean started with that idea and I told him the top but I thought he was taking both tops then he would roll that out we can we can just unbolt the other brake lines are in the way yeah I'll bet you can take one bottom off and walk it out we'll have her all tore apart before we know it yeah turning into an ordeal to just get the sway bar off yep so you got her Anthony Anthony [Laughter] that's right foreign [Laughter] we're good put her back together all right so uh we don't have the parts to fix this thing So currently we're done with it we're gonna drive it out of here and bring something else in to work on so what we'll do like a white truck maybe maybe you gotta go out here and pull some axles out of uh this old four nine inch because we're changing her to six lugs so we got to get an exact length on the axle so let's go to our axles up [Music] [Music] foreign [Music] get a a higher strength axle and we're gonna make this a six lug because they're gonna match front Okay so we'll get that done let's measure them yep We'll Wash this off can-am's out Jace's Dodge Dakota back in the shop so we've got the back for this thing we're gonna throw it in today and see if it works and then we'll start the real transformation on this truck if any of you guys are in the market for a Corvette he has decided he wants to sell his Corvette and build a truck so you're in the in the in the market for it he's selling it let us know and uh you can own it your hat smoking oh no it's just quiet they're a win there was definitely some blockage plug in it that's why the blew up let's see grab a rag crap and check oh okay that looks like the motor from the Geo yeah that's grody probably that's a half a quart hey that's way better I don't know what that was material death it's like Tire foam yes elbow dude I hate these guys all right good yeah [Music] I always hit my head off the bar sorry about that [Music] got a stream flood control we need flood control [Music] blush yeah is that what people have problems with they don't flush it and then they just put old so everything the blow up in the transmission goes in the cooler and you put any Transmission in and all that stuff goes right back in the training and ruins it again I think you're making more of a mess that's tall why don't we just load it we didn't put the block into this that's my bag nope landed why don't you put the block under it I didn't know there fellas oh yeah pegboard is that life supposed to be leaking water yes okay no problem it's a new design new design water cool lights yes okay this is the reason that I'm foaming the next shop ceiling so the once a year when it does rain in southern Utah the light doesn't like water you ready buddy okay ready Jace they said you never did anything I just seen it we have it on camera push that block you didn't get it a little bit you didn't get it clear under but okay close enough all right strap her down perfect safety catch engaged and usually we don't even worry about mistaken stuff you guys are turning over a new lead I can't wait for a trainer Jack yeah we've got one in the works okay that's a good deal Challenger is gonna hook us up with a Jack oh we're gonna love Challenger Challenger's coming here shortly these uh old junkie hoists that we've resurrected from the dead they're getting taken out we're getting some new Challengers there's gonna be cool get excited little Jace oh yeah do you remember your dad's old truck Landon about crashed us and killed us one day in it remember that we're gonna stop for the lamb Springs and he was driving it and just cranked the wheel and pinned it out through the trees oh yeah yeah we took some Cedars out and we finally got her shut down technically do not remember that but it went down oh this oh this piece fell off again twice actually you need that piece all right so pinched up here up on that side yeah yeah all right we got one bolt started Port converter still spins so yay that means she's in right there you go if you can get two while we're making progress okay all good could we start the hose a line hoses are rubber aren't they same thing they do the same thing yeah all right I started that I can't I got as tight as I could I didn't hear you oh yeah oh I gotta make some make noise I can't fit my fingers in there to tighten it anymore so that's as tight as it gets hey it keeps the tires so they don't get wet but the FJ and the record oh the three-wheeler doesn't get wet over here [Applause] all right I'm gonna go back in here I'm out of here I am actually taking these parts I'm going to Hurricane to Driveline Tech and we're gonna see if we can't figure something out with this because we've got a family ride coming up and I need this thing so I'll leave these guys to it dang I gotta go so we'll show you what we can figure out down there and then we'll be back to finish this tomorrow well hopefully they'll have this done when I get back what are we struggling with truck okay good point double back in yeah it's just denting it over huh well it looks like fun yeah are we still on this yes we actually are paid by the hour over in do we really need to put that in right now I mean like it'll make us down the road for a test drive without it oh my goodness working I'm working working working I'm not working I'm going home look at the real thing right here drivelines working oh yeah I love it he is working getting everything in got the cross member to put in and train him out or transmission mount either one yeah is that dust shield in there you remember those are in there let me get them out okay ready for the new ones they're in new and approved those going so much better why don't we do that first I don't know because I wasn't doing it that's why it's in we can let it down and stick it on the transmission mount beautiful transmission mount beautiful um it's not high enough what's pliable is it not high enough barely might need one more all right let's get another motor mount all right this is professional I mean if it can get us in and out of the shop we didn't have a mount we don't have them out to match it up with we got taken off in the transmission stuff so we'll get a mount for it but we're probably gonna change all this yeah everything's probably gonna get gutted this is just to see if it works now we put training fluid in it if we had an oil filter right oh yeah let's just put the old one back in and it has a hole in it doesn't it I don't think so it has oil inside of it it's got oil in it let's put it back on yeah let's just put it back chill buff all right it might leak and we can let it down put some oil in the transmission [Music] hey a Telltale taker that it's uh still its original 30 miles 30 000. is it still has the inner Hood yeah that's how yeah it's how you know that it's original 30 000. is this original too [Music] [Applause] she runs like a freaking Jewel sounds like a freaking joke a Harley it does well try any success now just the rest right that rhyme too I did rhyme she she's a one tire fryer even flat this is a little low and it had every gear it was nice every gear so sweet all right it's morning these guys got a bunch done while it's gone truck looks to be done there's like the other thing they told me to bring some oil so which I did it's right there and I just topped it off she's good to go I think now the real transformation now we turn it into a truck straight axles 35s gears lockers or he's in the front just Leafs in the back but we're gonna make a cool truck out of this Jason's finally out of bed about late for work I had to fire him almost not quite but almost so truck's done we're gonna fire it up take it for a rip and then onto something else for a while because we don't have all the parts to start this project we just got the main part done of it the running driving part so we'll get driving it and see if it works here much because it's a little noise we're going to the shift are you in evidently we've got problems so so we'll figure them out and overtime lockdown over the road probably the tires are flat we'll adjust that get oh yeah murder locked up all right it's doing everything it needs to do so a little bit of adjusting not it it'll work it just took a heavier foot that Jace had to get it to shift so we'll make it work all right all in all she's gonna be a good truck we've got a good start on it so next time we'll get to building the real parts of this truck all right so Driveline Tech hooked us up this one will never break again it'll break somewhere but not here this one is heavy duty it weighs more than that whole piece Sean's playing with over there so we'll slap this back together and we should have the Can-Am back in four wheel drive operating condition come on Betsy go on there little Betsy okay there you go will it go on there now oh yeah yeah we're gonna hold it look at that oh sorry about that y'all just chopped his fingers off he it turns yeah yeah we've got we've got real front wheel drives I like it we'll put this back together put a front window in it some nerf bars on the side I should be right uptown all right once again we could have built this I mean this is some tube welded together but it was cheaper for me to buy it than it was for me to buy the tube to build it let alone the time it was going to take so we'll see how they are they actually feel pretty heavy like they're decent decent wall thickness just maybe they'll keep the sides of this thing from getting all beat up not going to be any too long okay it's in let's do that top one first all right she started yeah pull down on it too it went that was enough fat whatever you have that was enough it's like that one's tight that one's tightish that'll go your way right there yeah then we just put that foam across the front of this up here and we're good I can tell you I'm not riding this in the rain very often or ever if I can help it all right I think we've got her whip got our wiper it might be manual but hey it'll get you home windows in it Drive lines in it oils changed Rock sliders we got mirrors coming but they're not here yet and a skid plate [Applause] How's that gonna be stop scratchy at all we should be able to work under that where's your confidence all right the skid Plate's got here for this thing we're gonna get them all bolted on and then get it out of our life and get going with this day just if we knew how and where it went I'm sure we'll figure this out there's got to be some instructions so if they got to enter the Box somehow yeah that goes over the top what are these trimmed down for for the front one probably probably there we did a four pieces [Laughter] so these four holes they're genius man I tell you you're a genius and then that must clip into this or something we've got it figured out we'll put it together wherever that lines up over there is where we need to be as long as we have a centered side to side that's the that's what matters so you'll have to make sure that square down the side let me go get some clamps now we can line this up and see if we're in the ballpark it looks like we might be too far don't die you can tell it's got to go over on the top up here and the middle piece does yeah all right that's probably it's pretty close all right this thing is skid plated that is pretty dang good looking that ought to keep this thing together a little better we'll roll it out of the shop and we'll get busy today get something else done for watching we got the Sorensen family annual every two or three years ride
