You have a lot of confidence in that jack! Made me nervous watching you take the spare out 😆

I made sure I stayed out of the “crush zone”, but I do need one of those jack rod tools for my Pro Eagle.

I can't believe you didn't do a build video on this truck. I enjoyed your last build series a lot. Also a video idea could be how you made the attachment for the tow bar on the Geo.

The build videos just have not gotten the views to justify the time investment. I’ll do a walk-around video of the truck and explain the mods.

@@Chasing518 you should definitely teach a class on how to get the buy in. Do you just say, ‘hey, it’s a great deal. I may or may not make money on it but at least I’m not addicted to cocaine and hookers!’ Or do you just show up with it like ‘hey babe, look what followed me home?’

"Totaled" is Insurance Company speak for "It will cost more to fix than it's worth". Doesn't mean it isn't fixable, just that the Insurance won't pay for it.

I agree! This situation was worse because he didn’t have collision coverage, and accident was his fault

Find a clean donor to put that powerstroke in. I couldnt tell if it still had the TTB in the front but if it did maybe checkout solo motorsports coil-over or coil-spring conversion kit for the TTB setup.

So my latest dumb idea is to put the 7.3/5spd in my 94 Bronco…….

that would be awesome as well. 💯

Remove the bed and cap. Make it into a flatbed.
