- Today on SPPTV, Mike continues progress on his Winter Beater project! This will be one of, if not the LAST video working on his 1998 GMC Sierra 4x4 project truck. At the beginning the repair list was long, but now all that is left is a minor cab corner repair. Only problem is it involves taking half the truck apart! Struggle Street.
Most truck boxes are secured to the trucks frame the same way I assume. At least all GM ones I have worked on have been. So if your looking to pull your box for whatever kind of repair you may need to do, this tutorial may give you some inside knowledge before you even turn a wrench.
In tomorrow's video we will be taking apart the Sh!thorses original 6.0 Junkyard LS engine. So make sure to check the channel for that tomorrow!

Doing this on my 89 Sierra 1500, thanks for the vid!
Hey Mike, no need to pull the filler neck out, undo your 3, 7mm screws, the connectors for the taillights, have a couple guys lift the box up and rest the front on top of the tires, and the back on the bumper. Works mint. Do it all the time for fuel pumps.
Love the how to style of these videos. Also a big fan of this style truck. Keep up the good work.
GD!!! that thing has more rust than the titanic.
Have fun in the blizzard tomorrow.
The rust n junk in the eye and ear and armpit day, lol been under my truck for weeks lol.
LOOKING GOOD!
I’m doing this on my OBS right now and the bumper was such a pain to take off. I’m working on the hitch receiver right now and I snapped all the welded nuts on top I’m hoping my box will be easier LOL.
Use a jack and a couple 2x4 wood to lift the box and slide back
Mike what if you were to lift the box high enough to do the repair? Maybe get the boys over to lift it and set up some blocks on the frame
Just jack it up out of the way ,Canadian cars rust faster then a sneeze you are lucky the bolts came out of the box. mop and glow the cab corner back on it will out last the rest of the truck.
Nice!
I know this is a old video but man I am pulling apart my obs right now I got the bumper off that was a bitch now I’m trying to get my hitch receiver out and I snapped all the welded nuts for those and I’m hoping my box is gonna be easier 😂
Sounds like you need more friends on my 04 me and a friend loaded up a new bed on your of a bed upside down and I think I may have had 2 others help me put it on my truck but it might be a bit lighter but like I said 2 of is picked it up higher alright
I have a 97 Chevy Work Truck 8 foot bed.. This isn't going to be fun. I am from Minnesota.. That should give you indicator of what the bottom of my truck looks like lol
Should change your fuel pump while your at it,even if it don't.I've replaced mine 2 time in the last 3 yrs on my 97 Silverado.Then again,its made in China.That explains it all.I went American this time =,and haven't had 1 Problem.
No live tonight Mike?
was thinking the same thing....
Drake Feore guess he's falling off CZcamsr curse
LOL yup would seem that way, STREAM or we RIOT! ;-)
Not toooday
I think I live close to you if you want help on Thursday moving the box send me a message. I also have some 18G sheet metal if you don't want to pull apart that hood.
why didnt you just buy a good bed?
That poor frame. You might get a few more years out of it.
Dang that northern salt ruins yalls vehicles. Still a great way to not have huge payments. Repair and drive.
Dude get some stickers and t shirts made up and start selling them when you go to shows and races maybe it will help pay for more parts for the shit horse
Anyone else bothered by him saying box instead of bed?😆
taylor pierce isnt it a box? You sleep in a bed and put stuff in a box :)
novaracer2000 well yeah lol, I'm from Louisiana so everyone is used to saying bed lmao
Lol here in Tennessee we call it a bed also
2nd for bed in tennessee
I think its a Canadian thing
Road salt i bet
Make it yourself thanks to woodprix plans. I think it's the best way to learn how to build it in the cheapest way.
Love the how to style of these videos. Also a big fan of this style truck. Keep up the good work.
