Beautiful trucks!!! I do believe I have seen early 60s GM trucks in magazines that were made for mining companies. Modifications were done by a separate company. The fabrication work was rough at best, but was functional for what they was used for. Neat concept, but those trucks were nothing like these trucks. Also, there is a local farmer that has been putting Cummins engines in 70s style square bodies. He uses long bed, 4 door, 4x4 trucks. But they are truly ranch trucks. Again, beautiful trucks and thank you for sharing. And especially, thanks for saving these old trucks.

i laughed when he said that. that truck is useless as a tow rig. if he'd left it near stock height it could be used. otherwise pointless being a dually. i cant stand jacked up duallies with huge wheels/tires. those "bros" dont know when your duals are so close together they will rub and eventually blow out when loaded (which i guess they never do) some classic 16" alcoas or even 19.5 alcoas with stock traction tires would make that truck look sooo much better and actually be usable. the yellow C60 actually looks fine as-is because its a single rear wheel rig. nothing wrong with a lifted truck but they become useless as a work/tow rig after that.

Great show nice trucks. I drive 18 wheelers and the reason most are drum is because up intill bedix came out with there system two years ago there were no reliable disc breaks for 18 wheelers but now they are all switching to disc. They are way easier to service and stop 140 feet shorter than drum, last much longer and don't over heat as quickly.

@varun009 2 жыл бұрын
Exactly my thoughts. Usually lifting is done to create clearance for larger tires. I think the lift should be lowered by an inch and the tyres swapped out for 38s. You should have breaks and axles capable of handling them in a truck that big anyway. Probably not the best choice to run down the highway with, but they look much better. People are often surprised how much better older suvs and trucks look with bigger modern tires and hubs.

Checked the K-W site following someone else's comment (which I now can't find) where he said he'd driven one of last year's models with drum brakes. Seems they have F&R discs as standard on almost all of their trucks, with drums being optional - might be down to attitudes and/or costs.
@gordowg1wg145 4 жыл бұрын
@@Cody6210 Depends on how you define "power" - there is a self-servo affect on the leading shoe(s) whereas a disc is reliant on the squeeze. For extreme use, a drum 'may' be able to apply greater peak brake torque, but that is debatable and, regardless, drum brakes simply cannot dissipate the heat as readily as a disc brake, so are much more likely to 'burn out' or fade, as you said. There is also another design dfference that is important - with a drum brake, as it heats and expands, it increases the brake travel of the wheel cylinders to apply them and, with some vehicles, this can result in a VERY low pedal. With disc brakes as the disc heats and expands it is actually moving towards the caliper pistons, slightly reducing travel.

@@KSG420 , yeah, I've been noticing Jay's, I don't give a crap at my age, driving in the last few years. If you go back 5 years or so, you can really see that his ability to stay in his lane and not wander was better. He treats the vehicles remarkably well though, good shifting, and easy on the hardware. You have to admit, the visibility from up there is good, but the lines on the road are practically under the truck. Not to mention the width of the rear wheels. Its a truck made for a rig driver.

M One can’t blame him. The reason i met him because I was buying a rollover 2008 duramax with good powertrain from the same wholesaler as him. And we started talking. I can see why they do more Cummins swaps than duramax. Duramax is an engine that requires more electrical to run.

@@mr.lowslow7702 there is nothing wrong with him using the tried and true 12v platform for any heavy duty truck build.

If I had my kids or could see them I’d probably be in bed but I can sleep in tomorrow at least, looking at the positive side of what is otherwise not a fun Christmas.
