Enjoyed the video! Never too old to learn. Good to see the old truck still going.

6 point sockets are your friend. Can take a lot more abuse than the 12 point.

Have been working on a long format video similar to this about my first car (Jeep Xj, kind of a cousin to yours). Cool video, I’ll be subscribing.

Congrats on your first car. Hope you'll have lots of good times with it. Dont over-invest, you'll be upgrading soon enough.

Play in the steering = not great. poor mileage = not great. Lowpower = not great. First car = EPIC!!!!

Your so lucky to have access to those tools

Most of the tools I have bought, I only started with a pretty basic set of hand tools.

While it’s apart do the axle seals. They are going to leak since you pulled the shafts

Harbor Frieght has very affordable and surprisingly good automotive tools. The stuff made in Taiwan is much better than the Chinese junk.

Congrats man!! That thing is like the grandchild of my 71 Power Wagon LOL! (There's a couple videos of it on my channel if you are interested). Out of curiosity are you getting 11MPG all the time around town and what not or is that high way millage?

All around, I think it depends more of how you drive it than where. If you keep rpms down and go slow vs. floor it everywhere.

Congrats on the new ride! Are your future career plans in this field?

I plan on going to college for engineering. However While recording this video I was working as a heavy equipment mechanic. I would work on excavators, dump trucks, dozers etc for 9 hours then come home and work on this truck for a few hours.
