Diesel Powered Steam Cleaner, Flames and Failure!
Просмотров 58 тыс.14 дней назад
I keep buying projects covered in dirt and oil, so I figured I'd get the ultimate cleaning machine, a steam cleaner! I picked up an old diesel powered Steam Jenny 200 Plus. Of course, it was broken and I had to fix it before using it... Please note: You need to be careful with steam powered stuff, once you get water boiling into steam, it doesn't stop when you turn it off. Also, steam burns mor...
Saved From Scrap! WW2 CCKW 6x6, Will it Run? I Need Help...
Просмотров 310 тыс.Месяц назад
I got a call one morning about parts for my Chevy G-506, and by afternoon I had this 1943 GMC G-508 CCKW "Jimmy" sitting in my yard. The guy dropping if off didn't even bring ramps, because he expected it to be picked off by a scrap yard crane. The question is, can I get it running?
Totally Normal Jeep for Daily Driving and Getting Groceries, parts from Nilight and ATOTO

In this video, I actually finish a project! I needed to replace my daily driver, so this Jeep Grand Cherokee with the 5.2 V-8 and AX15 5-speed was revived. I did quite a few videos on this Jeep, starting with the initial NV3500 swap. Here's the playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLfyVixelWstCN3BhC3EFBrjEj3AqN_suQ Stuff I used in this video: NILIGHT: Nilight roof rack cargo basket amzn.to/49nrsPI Nilight 3...
The $2 Jeep, Is it Roadworthy? Things Went Wrong...
Просмотров 282 тыс.Месяц назад
In a previous video, I bought this 1964 Jeep Wagoneer for $2, and got it running for under $6. At the end of that video, I set of the goal of making it roadworthy for $200. It did not go as planned... I did a typo on the graphic for the Napa fuel pump number. The correct number is FUP B0116P for the fuel pump that worked. Sorry for any confusion!
Homemade Lowboy Trailer, With Bonus Seized Engine Revival!
Просмотров 68 тыс.2 месяца назад
I needed a trailer for my John Deere mini excavator, but I didn't have one that would work. Obviously, I needed to build one. Rather than buy a trailer axle, I bought an old Dodge D300, got the 318 (360?) engine freed up, and then pulled the whole truck apart. A little bit of quality time with a saw and a welder, and I had a DIY lowboy trailer.

DIY Hoist for the Oliver OC-3 Crawler Loader
Просмотров 45 тыс.3 месяца назад
In the last video with my Nissan SD22 diesel swapped Oliver OC-3, I found that it was too light in the rear and that made it unstable. I'm solving that problem in this video and also adding a 2-ton hoist to the back. It made a big improvement! Here's a link to the Nilight hooks I used: amzn.to/3UQ51OD Nilight auto parts bit.ly/3UTIxMF

Kid Safe Snowmobile; Built Cheap!

Using a cheap Predator type engine and some leftover parts, this sled has a new life. Thanks for the comments looking out for our safety on the fuel leak issue. I never noticed it at the time, it's a good thing I put a camera under the hood! The...
4x4 Forklift: Dana 70 Axles and Skid Steer Tires!
Просмотров 111 тыс.4 месяца назад
Another forklift followed me home, and this one is a 4x4. It's got a 4 cylinder, 4 speed, 4,000 capacity (maybe), and 4-wheel drive. I'm thinking of it as the 4xforklift... With Dana 70 axles on both ends and some kind of Ford 4-cylinder engine, it looks like it will be a great rough terrain forklift. That's just what I was looking for in a machine to move stuff around in the mine. Pretty much ...

    These old buses are so cool, and that little welder is crazy. We pulled an old basttery out of a late 60s Ford N-series semi tractor and it started hissing. My Uncle got spooked and hurled it as far as he could, cracking the battery open and spilling what seemed like five gallons of acid all over the ground. We had a hydraulic hose press at the O'Reilly's where I worked, and I'm pretty sure a lot of rural parts stores still make custom hoses. Was it actually cheaper and/or easier to buy one mail-order?
