Jackstands ability to talk shit every time he talks cracks me up 😂😂😂
Jackstand is my spirit animal.
hes a grudge racer, talking shit comes with the territory
I've noticed that about most racers lol. My buddy can shoot the bull with the best of em. 😂
Every single sentence lol
@@MiaM1ViiCEwow nice job Sherlock Holmes... No one gives a shit
“We got two things, our rules and our balls and we don’t break them for nobody”. Squirrel always killing me 😂 41:59

Was looking this comment, this needs to be on shirt hahaha
Totally my new statement need the shirt
😂😂 same
I legit read this right as he said it loll
Being a diesel mechanic for many year's J.H is 100% spot on. People always bring the craziest pos to get fixed and it's always after they trued fixing it themselves and destroyed something or it's engines that have never been serviced and everything needs to be changed at once it never fails.
@@bigduphusaj162 are you drunk? What the fuck goes through your brain to think that’s even remotely accurate
@@bigduphusaj162what the fuck are you talking about LMFAO
@@bigduphusaj162 Please. Y'all got economy, but try tearing down an entire house with a 1.6L. Or hauling another car, for that matter. (If you're talking Perkins, we rebuild them at work here in Virginia fairly regularly. They are pretty good work engines, and reliable. Most of the damage we see on those comes from neglecting maintenance.)
Hey, as an engine machinist, the petrol heads will also park their truck in a lake for a decade, then bring it in and ask how cheap they can get it running for.
@@bigduphusaj162could you explain what you mean? The US tends to have larger, more advanced, more complex, more powerful diesel engines with plenty of diesel mechanics. There are also “real” diesel mechanics that work on large scale engines for power-gen and mechanics drive. So are you just confused and thing diesels only exist in the UK or am I missing something?
Use this as the more diesel content button.
Yes please lol 7tree lover
As for the name of the truck, You said it yourself at 43:32! Sneeker! Thats a perfect name for the truck. The ol sneeker 7.3
Dirty Hookers
Or
Rippers Repo
I was just about to comment this. It’s perfect
💯
What about sneaky squirrel?
I think sketchers is better. It’s also a sneaker… cause ya know.
You gotta love seeing Cleet and Squirrel working on these regular everyday vehicles. The race cars are fun, but watching these 2 having a blast on camera is too good
It’s refreshing to see content that not strictly racing and stuff the normal person can’t afford or would never be able to work on. This gives everyone not only great content but can possibly get someone into working on vehicles that was scared to try.
@@MukLander I mean, I can't afford to order a 632 from Summit, but I get your point haha.
Also I believe it’s a way to get the kids interested.
"Cleetus McFarland yard and tow."🤙🤙🤙🤙

A few things when it comes to diesels and hydraulic systems, you're almost always going to be correct in assuming the larger port is suction/inlet and the smaller port being pressure/outlet, the goes for just about any pump I've worked on that prioritize pressure over flow.
As for the arm, I highly recommend putting some long small diameter springs on the D rings to the bumper to keep it squared when operating and ALWAYS keep a spare set of chain and binders or straps rated for well more than you anticipate. I can't tell you how many times I thought I had straps and they weren't there or the ones I had were underrated for what I needed them for.
I also highly recommend doing a few full cycles on all cylinders whenever the system is opened, so filter changes, pump changes, or even a leak on the suction side. You can have air bubbles get caught in the cylinders and if you know about air in the brakes, you'll know this isn't the greatest for hydraulic performance
As for my source, I'm a 2nd class Construction Mechanic for the navy and specialize in cranes and MK36 MTVR wreckers (military version of a rotator tow truck)
Bushing is worn AF in the swivel.. The whole assemble you see sags. Looks like a dynamic brand? They sell parts . And you should weld plates On the Jaw arms where they are worn. Drove a quick lift truck moved too many thousands of cars in FL. Those lifts auto center anyway if you are not on the tires square. But try your best to square it up. Fix it up though the self loaders are super handy to move cars around when they wont run. Start ETC. You can organize a whole parking lot like I used to with one. Make sure you strap the cars when you go fast they WILL fall off. Also trailer hitches will cause trucks to fall off if you hit the boom with it
No you are wrong
Definitely dynamic. I use to have the same truck. Mine had the boom and the snatch though
@@pauledwards6446 LOL just a you are wrong, no boring explanation of why?
@@pauledwards6446 no u
@@komokaziboschetti you know nothing
Almost half a near 50min video of just taking out one part out this old truck and somehow its still the most entertaining stuff I've seen all day.
I would highly recommend going to a T4 conversion kit along with an intercooler, You are already going to be swapping out the uppipes to bellowed. (That smoke you are seeing on start up is more than likely the donut seals).
The T4 kits basically give you all the pipes and fittings you'll need and would probably already be doing. Along with the flexibility of running various off the shelf turbos.
And while you are in there go ahead and convert it over to Efuel with the RR mod. The mechanical pumps have fallen off in quality, I had got a brand that every one used to praise, one week later it was leaking. After looking some more I wasn't the only one with issues.
The biggest annoyance was it's in the valley so all the accessories pretty much has to come off the top end of the motor to get to it. So I just ordered everything to DIY it, freeze plugged the hole and moved the pump to somewhere it can be easily reached, I also deleted the fuel bowl to converted it over to spin on filters during this time. Just since I knew there was a higher chance to get quality filters vs the chance of not finding an international or fomoco fuel filter at a random part store away from home.
I wish I had a group of buddies like these fools, love to see ‘em have genuine fun at all time. Love it.
I’m so pumped to see a 7.3 in the fleet! Turbo and injectors will be sweet but you guys need the intercooler kit! Can’t wait to see more of this!
same. i keep hoping they will actually do diesel
And a tuner. I bet Justin has one in stock.
Don't forget a blue spring kit.
I was just sayin about that in my comment too
So happy. I have a 99 7.3L that Im learning to work on!
I love how Cleeter keeps conferring with Squirrel as if he has any idea. But Squirrel's positive attitude can make anything happen.
Squirrel is still a really good mechanic…
Can't forget he's still called the LS Squirrel for a reason. He knows everything about those.
lol "7.3'll pull a house down" had me cracking up, thank you for doing what you do
You have made an amazing purchase there kinda rough around the edges but it is def a diamond in the rough! You really need to be careful or you are going to hurt somebody for one the pivot bushing on the cross bar (the one with the claw) is done and when it lets go whatever your towing is on its own! Also whenever you lift something you need to strap each wheel to the crossbar( the straps it came with were somebody’s attempt to keep it from flopping around ) and you need tow safety chains attached to your casualty (legal requirement) and keep in mind that design of tow attachment is capable of lifting a much heavier load than you truck is rated for (especially when you have flat tires) There is a company located there in Florida called A W Direct they sell all the chains and straps you could ever need and anything else you can imagine or need for your wonderfull little tow trucks (they have everything)
Anyway keep up the good work I have been fan from day one when you claimed Tom Baileys Camaro and I watch every single video you guys make Chris BadBoy from SF California and I eat avacodos every day P.S. if you are interested in hiring a consultant or Tow Truck Driver Extraordinaire I would consider relocating to Florida I drive big rig Tow Truck and I am an expert in every facet of the Towing Industry
I dearly love Sam. And @ 40:47, how cool was it to hear Cleeter say " ...OUR COMPANY is booming", ...NOT "MY company"! Its that attitude that shines thru everything they do on this channel.
I agree with the sentiment and I’m sure that’s how he actually feels but I think he was talking about the “tow company” lol
@MacktasticSlick_ hahahah why you gotta ruin it! 😂😂
@@MacktasticSlick_ I figured he was talking about their company overall, because he said it as they were pulling up to their Merch division, ...WHERE 7-10 PEOPLE ARE HUSTLING & BUSTLING!
I don't know why but it absolutely warms my heart seeing all the ladies working and laughing with Sam.
Your new videos are UNSTOPPABLE!
HELL YEAH BROTHER! Finally a 7.3 on the channel!!!
Yup tow truck race with Matt’s off-road recovery
and trail mater
Get it done!! Tow truck drag race, Rory called you out, but it’s time to see who’s tow truck is the fastest. Fabrats, Robbie, Matt, Tow Mater and am sure you can talk Ol’ Heavy D into it.
Then some kinda grab n go challenge 😂
He’s going to do it with Rory from trail mater it was on his channel where Cletus said he was down
tow truck race is actually not a bad Idea.
do laps, then down into the center of the track to repo a crown vic (since there's plenty of them onsite and its consistent load for each racer) with all the expected safety chain/tow equipment, then back onto the track for more laps, then to a different unloading spot and back for one last lap.
George was the greatest addition to the channel you could have made. Do everything you can to keep him around cleet. He truly does make the crew and channel complete.
Plus theyre get down and dirty you see em turning two half shitboxes into 1 75% shitbox and thats impressive considering the shyster . I cant even get a starter off without rage quitting without one si gle bolt coming loose then it turns out it didnt even need to be taken off anyway thats how it goes with me
I actually LOLED when yall put Sam's truck back, and the tow truck still had the blown out tire! 😂😂
13:49 😂😂😂😂THATS WHAT HE SAID 😂😂😂😂😂
"2 holes in the back. perfect"
" let's get after it"
😂😂😂
“With you guys working on it, we’re probably only gonna hear your tennis shoes.” 🤣
Of course Sam is kicking it with the ladies while y’all are messing around
🤣😂🤣. Ofcourse he was!!
You know the difference between a young bull and an old bull? Young bull says to the old bull “let’s run down there and fuck us a calf.” Old bull says to the young bull “I’m gonna walk down there and fuck em all”
Love these longer formats, so much fun, please keep doing these side projects!
When you extend it out the head left and right it has a bushing in there. It looks like the bushing might be bad because it is downwards when you pick up the truck. I believe the bushing in there needs to be replaced in the pivot. For 12 years I used to tow for a guy in Rockford Illinois we had those go bad and then they had to be replaced. They’re not hard to replace.
Give us a call at Suncoast performance so we can put a good unit in that thing. And we got you on the 10 speed as well
Cleetusm do it
Can personally vouch for Suncoast transmissions. We had to have a Cat 3 trans delivered to Georgia when our Duramax smoked the stock trans and left us stranded. Never had to worry about it again.
Try the guy out do a review video
Don't y'all remember white buffalo!!?
"Scoop" has to be its name!
Pretty sure "Hook and Scoop" is what they call a repo truck.
Or Tater Tow't

Love this truck. Love seeing Cleedus being so happy and excited over an old tow truck. Name for truck. SNEEK STROKER!
Can we get a cleat and squirrel “Hookers towing service” shirt 😂😂
JH is such a legend lol. Just a pure dude righthere. Love his interactions with the Cleet Crew ❤
You can tell he's a real one when he rolls up and starts talking smack, and then immediately crawls under his friends new leaky truck and starts helping him out on the spot. A real G
@@Hman9876And then Cleeter is talking about towing him! 😂
@@briskettacohe’s done dude
Guarantee Cleet called JH before he purchased the truck to get his opinion on the quality of the truck
I have a PTO pump and a yard of 7.3 parts trucks. Would be happy to get you some parts out.
In the Freedom Factory area? I just bought a 96 7.3 myself and am looking for parts nearby.
I’ll take parts for free
Need to see all of Matt’s Offroad buddies with Cleetus doing tow truck drag racing.
🎉HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLEETUS🎉much love and respect from New Zealand brother
25:54 As someone who used to work at an Ace Hardware, there was always at least one person a day that came in from Home Depot, Lowes, etc. who couldn't find the right part after several hours, only to find exactly what they needed with spares and be out in 5 minutes.
That part of the job never got old.
Why is nothing at home depot?
I use to work for lowes in plumbing and people would always come in looking for something I knew we didn't have and I always told them ace hardware will have it
Yep Ace and True Value here have what you need more than Lowes and Home Depot
Ace is the place . . .
Yup ace hardwares nut and bolt selection is second to none. I moved to the UK last year and there is nothing here for replacement nut/bolts/plumbing. It’s awful
Let’s goooo yall made my day 7.3 diesel content we need moreeeeee
Super excited to see this OBS 7.3 on the Channel and hope you guys build it. Have a 97 7.🌲myself. Recently did up pipes, down pipes, KC 300 turbo, 20% full force injectors and Banks Intercooler and it’s a real weapon now!
That Rig Shall be called
"THE 7.3L SNEAKER"!!!
The name of the tow yard should be Hooker and Squirrels 🐿️ Repo Depot!
"I hook em squirrel books em"!
@colebreinholt1778 +1
😂❤❤🔥
Agree 100 percent,sneaker is a great name.....I hope they go hi tech with the cameras,and a drone would be good to...cleet is good with the characters,content gold.
I owned a 94 f350 dump truck with a 7.3l it had the ATS turbo system on it for my landscaping fleet truck and, that old girl would scream. I live in Utah and used it as a snow plow truck until 2015 and regret selling it, the truck was an indestructible monster
Repo Depot hahahahaha
Pro operator here! that's a dynamic 601 B unit not the best! It doesn't have a long reach and can't pick up anything too heavy change the bushing in your T-bar swivel it won't scrape the ground and when folded up you can weld some holds on the tilt bar but it will get the job done! I like that OBS! 🇺🇸👈👍
Just sold my 97 3500 with a 601 for a C4500 with a Vulcan 882. Major difference. But im also the guy who’s not a fan of a jerrdan bed 😅
@@the_dre_wayy9204 10-4 I know that Vulcan intruder is great unit! 🇺🇸👈👍
Thought you were for community entertainment and GOOD TIMES,
NOT ripping out someone's lively hood for some views on CZcams
@@geoffreykempsonyowie3278 What are you even talking about? Take the tin foil hat off
@@geoffreykempsonyowie3278funny he was just saying the bed isn’t the greatest and gave a suggestion on something to fix.
Now me I’ve always been a jerrdan fan. But that’s what I was trained on and have ran in 99% of the trucks I’ve run (excluding heavy wrecker that’s about 50%).
You can fix that key issue with the ignition by tightening the two bolts under dash for the shifting column
Loving the longer videos lately. More video length from you guys could never be a bad thing!
The suction line is wrong into pump it has straight threads with an o ring and you got tapered threads that is why it’s buried and will also suck air into the pump causing it to wear out quicker. Love the video and the new tow truck!
Ace hardware is the best. My mom was helping dad with sprinkler system controls. Brought in the whole unit asked for the pvc parts to have dad make a new one.
Ace made the whole replacement while she waited. No extra charge. Saved dad some work there.
Great company.
Why I love my local Ace hardware.
ace is the best
22:10 🤣 cleets quick “wrenchel snake” comment is amazing
Hey Cleetus. If you pull up on the shifter before you turn the key that will fix the issue you are having with the key not turning. I've been driving my 7.3 for 25 years now.
First time I drove one I got stranded because of that. Some old feller came over to ask if I needed help, told him it wouldn't crank, he hopped in and pushed up on the shifter. Fired right off. Felt dumb af
It is the little things.
Just like manuals are anti theft devices.
I’d HIGHLY recommend doing an intercooler setup on that rig if you plan on towing anything super heavy.
Cleetus and Squirrel just keep delivering! ❤😂
So happy to see a 7.3l on the channel. I've run these engines a long time and they are awesome and last forever.
Lift up on the shifter when you go to turn the key and it’ll turn smooth as butter
yep the old fords seem to wear out fast i've got an 04 with only 190k km and is more messed up then this lol
1:36 Do i see a literal oreo sticking out of the trunk of Mcflurry? 🤣🤣
I spy with my little eye a delicious treat!
They've had that for ages?
@@Rooster1172T....... They haven't though. At least not on the car. There's a physical oreo coming out of the trunk. Unless it's been in the background and im just noticing it now because he's never shown us. 🤷♂️
WTF W THE w lambchop mustache
A dude in the fan page group sent it to them. He's a rep and it was a display.
These Cleet N Squirrel builds are my favorite videos on this channel right now... Quality content boys! Still need a high-vis Cleet & Squirrel Towing shirt to drop before the GMC giveaway is over!
Lmao the Raptors front wheels locking up when they are pushing it 😂 @ 34:45
Picking up Sam's truck:
"that old man's done dude" 😂😂😂😂😂
"WHY YOU DO DAT?" "WHY YOU TOW ME?" "WHY YOU .........?" THE SCENE FROM "CHAPPIE" AND HIS FIRST DAY AT SCHOOL! , COMES TO MIND.....
Gotta respect the commitment. Whole wall from blots and nuts and they reuse the crusty one for the pto. lol. Love it.
If it's not broke don't fix it haha
Man I love this, takes me back to the Faster Proms shop days.
I have a drink, every time I hear "dialed" in this video! 😂
I love how careful you were with Sam's truck . Total respect . The look on his face was gold . Those boys ! 😂
I love my 7.3! Mine is a 99 so the motor is set up a bit different. I have 1 green belt that runs everything and mine has an intercooler. ;) The best thing about a 7.3 is that there is always something leaking somewhere so no bolt or nut is ever rusted and and the engine stays nice and coated. It makes everything more dirty to work on, but definitely easier!
Has Cleet been watching some Matt's offroad shenanigans? All of a sudden interested in towing. Love it
Let's freaking gooo brother, can't wait to the tow rig in action this weekend ❤
Be careful with those pipe fittings you used to adapt to the PTO pump. That looks like a class 125 or 250 cast reducer. Only good for 2-300 psi max. It might end up being a week point down the road.
Sch 80 stainless for the win !
that was the tank side, they had an AN fitting on the pressure side
not an issue on the suction side.
@@aegixxer1 Yeah just watched again and realized that. Thought it was pressure side at first lol
Love to see Cleet & Squirrel dealing with every 7.3 problem under the sun! Don’t forget to check your abs and the dipstick oring seal on the oil pan!
Happy Birthday Cleet!!
46:15 old squirrel coming in clutch with the camera work😂
Cleet, when you tow something with the steer wheels on the ground, take the seat belt and wrap it around the steering wheel and buckle it. It will hold it from turning on you.
The 7.3L diesel engine really is one of the best engines ever made, I have an ambulance converted into a camper and the 7.3 has 500k miles on it and runs like a dream!
Get rid of the emissions equipment and it’ll run forever.
not to mention the 6.0
@@RyanMcIntyre My 96 7.3 didn't come with any of that crap on it. Runs amazing at 280k.
@@RyanMcIntyrethere is no emissions lmao
I heard it'll pull down a house.
Another quality job by Cleet and Squirrel😂😂😂
I usually hate it when the "cameraguy" talks, but Squirrel is just way too funny. Love his comments
Whenever I hear a 7.3 idle it reminds me of my grandpas old ford and me trying to hear it as it comes down the street at 5am to go hunting/fishing. Thanks for those memories and bad ass rig!!
Once again Cleetus and Squirrel work their magic. What a great purchase. This tow truck is going to be a great addition for Freedom Factory races to remove breakdowns from the track quickly and safely.
Neat truck. A little friendly advice is to put a higher lip and Cover to keep water out of hydrolic tank.
One of my guys was working on my work truck (3rd gen ram) and he lost the 3/8 drive ratchet. We had to replace the radiator 3 years later and found the ratchet stuffed between the intercooler and radiator haha
Cleeter & squirrel out here wreaking havoc! Watch were y'all park ya cars! 🤣🙌
Gon be on the look out at the freedom 500 😂
The fittings in the PTO looked to screw in very easy. Some pumps are O ring. Some are pipe thread.
I thought the pressure side out of the pump was a female JIC. it’s very common to over tighten them and crack em around the inner flange.
When the team is spitballing with JH, always a great time. I love how these guys are always just talking smack to each other, having a blast
HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLEETUS!
50 minutes this is getting good you guys converted me from watching cable tv! Haven’t turned on the cable box in years .
Cleeter and Squirrels Lemon Lot. This tow truck series is so awesome. I cant wait to see yall start towing people the last one is hilarious
21:37 cheers mate spat my drink all over my screen xD
"Skecher"! Gonna sneaker in, and always protect your tows/toes!
Tighten up the slop in the quick lift so it doesn’t drag as you are backing up the vehicle that you are towing. Install a backup camera for towing and weld a couple pieces of square bar on the main lift arm to keep the tow bar centred when it’s folded up.
Cleet and squirrel antics are so freaking funny. The tow buggy running and hydraulics working can't wait to see what it looks like with the wrap and how she sounds with the new injectors. She's going to be primed.
Good ol’ clutch pump. Those are always fun installs.
Cleets out here power stroking 7.3 is a beast of a engine
“It looks like the same PTO but… it’s different”.
Flawless content today boys 😂
I love how excited Cleet gets over little stuff. I hurt my face from smiling so hard and at times, outright laughing out loud. Quality content. Best automotive channel on the internet.
Sam's face was priceless when yall pulled up lol great video gonna make a killin now!
Digging the hell out of the 7.3 content 😂
Got me over here making sure those bills are paid up! Not messing with these guys and this unit!
The 7.3 key jam is such a classic. Never driven one I didn’t have to wrestle the column to let me start it.
love the 7.3 addition hope to see more modified diesel content
Another awesome video! Nothing like buying a questionable vehicle and then going through it with your friends to find out that its WAY worse than you thought and the laughs get bigger and bigger with every new issue yall find. Love it 😂
Your humor is on point, always puts a smile on my face!
