Run ALL YOUR LINES FIRST FROM DIESEL FRAME..AFTER EVERYTHING IS IN THE FRAME LAST LOWER ENGINE INTO PLACE...It will save you a lot of time and misery with engine/Trans not in way Nice work fellows
Great work! And let me give you some advice at 3:55,. as a decades long mechanic myself I use head lamps when working,. It will give you a free hand. I can't work without my adjustable headlamp, definitely my favorite work accessory !! lol : )
Cars and trucks, everyone does that, RV's hell no thats what we want to see very rare on this youtube channel.... thats why we were upset you sold the big RV.... thats where the action is..... you are the best in rebuilding RV's anyway.....
There's a lot going on there, It's going' to take a little bitta work. And with that let's git it done. A wrecked truck and burnt truck are joined together to become a good truck. Lookin' good. All it took was a little bitta work but it's all good!

You might want to check on the part numbers on the torsion bars. The diesel might take a different set because of the diesels weight. I think I would have changed out the front running gear before engine set in . Also switching the wiring and tubing lines to the gas frame.
This is a huge undertaking, but as always, you’re doing it right! I’m really enjoying these videos and the progress that you’re making on this build. There is little doubt in my mind that it will be perfect when you get it finished. Keep up the great work!
Aaww man... Now I have to wait on the Next episode of Niko Brothers. Whelp... see ya tomorrow (by the way... looking at both desiel and gas engines.. They both look the same, hope you guys don't get messed up)
So when you have finished will you be registering the car as the black one or the burnt white one (since I’m reality it is the black engine and interior in the white body and chassis). Which VIN/FIN will you use?
You guys have the patience of saints! You know how many tools I would have thrown and how many F this comments I would've made? Keep it up, best channel on CZcams!
Wow! This project looks impossible! You guys are tackling it head on! I am enjoying the video's and can not wait to see the end result! There will be lots of stories go along with this truck for sure! I am thinking you should name it 'Frankenstein'!😁
Wow Guys this is a huge project! Since it's a long bed there will be rear wiring harness issues, exhaust, brake & fuel line issues and rear drive line issues so parts to find or fix. But man you Guys are getting to the better part of the rebuild. As always I am looking forward to the next video!
At this point the black truck is a parts truck for the white 1. You are going to use the long box frame right? You need the axles out of the black truck
I'm impressed with the amount of man-hours this build must be running. Would be interesting to tally up the total labor cost at the end, as if you were going to do this for a customer.
Get rid of the DEF system. Nobody is going to know that you did it. Just don't put it on video, or just gut the inside of the DEF system. That way it will look like it is there. Great job sir.
great series, very ambitious. are you concerned about the suspension differences between the diesel and gas versions? stuff like spring rates, sway bar thickness and also axle ratios?
CRAZY!! A day on the frame rack and the diesel frame could have been straightened- no need to spend days to swap all those components from 1 frame to another.
@@pupbiking Yeah and they have to swap everything= fuel system , brake lines, wiring, both differentials- plus there are gonna be differences in the frames- brackets, clips etc.
Whew ! That's a lot of work, never mind remembering how you put it back together.... So you are using the toasted cab, bed, and chassis, and moving the 4x4 drive train,, diesel parts into it?
couldn't tell that the frame was bent or could it not be straightened? And the cab also, I thought if you were buying a new roof couldn't you used it on the black cab or were the pillars too badly damaged. Just thought it would have saved a ton of work if the frame or the cab could have been fixed

Nice work fellows
Being different wheel base there going run in to problems in the rear
Of course I'm staying tuned its riveting content, just love it.😀
You guys love a challenge. Xx

This job is not for the faint at heart…kudos to you guys for taking on this project. Thanks I am really enjoying the videos
How do you determine which Vin tag to use?
People are buying trucks. Nikos Brothers are building it. That's cooler👍
I have been watching your rebuild for a long time you guys have been doing a great job excellent work next to new .
This is gonna be epic, the new Niko shop truck. Maybe put a lift kit.

Make sure you check the torsion bars , they could be a different weight rating. Easy to change now!
Like, I said only channel which has a daily video for subscribers. ❤️

Great progress
i would do those broken covers while the engine is out

Annnd just like that have to wait until tomorrow ... great work guys ...C-YA Tomorrow..
Lots of work ahead of you guys still but happy to see your dedication to the work
nice..excited to see the finish product
Definitely a lot of labor but the way you guys jump right in I'm sure you will get it to the finish line. 👍
Great job
I can only imagine the content when you guys hit a million subscribers
Looking great hope you've got a good memory 😀
I always use seat belts... they are far less likely to damage something than a chain when so much used on vehicles is plastic.
It can be overwhelming to see all the things you have to do. But, you're the magic makers for sure. God bless and thank you.
you guys are amazing, love the videos , wish they were longer , but excellent content
For that to be a 2021 and to be that completely filthy, even the underside, the owner had to have just beat the hell out of it
It appears that it was in a tornado, based on the extensive damage to the body. It wasn't the owner that beat it!
The brake and fuel lines more likely will be different lengths. Considering ones a long bed and the other is a short bed.
I still thinking your next build should be a forklift so you could use it to lift engines and cab.
Lots of work allright bro... ;-)
Very good progress 👏
I know you guys can get it done, I’ve watched you do it before but… wow thats a lot of work !!
So good watching you guys,a lot of work 👍🇬🇧👍🥳😁👌
You'll need to use the diesel rear end, different gearing. What is the gearing on the gasser front diff?
Aaww man... Now I have to wait on the Next episode of Niko Brothers. Whelp... see ya tomorrow (by the way... looking at both desiel and gas engines.. They both look the same, hope you guys don't get messed up)
Does the front diff match with that diesel gearbox?
I know that. Bent and crashed axels are bad. And burnt car axels wont match. And also all of the axels need complete rebuild.
Thanks guys for sharing the update on the big rebuild project, 2021 Silverado.🤟🥇
The diesel fram has 4 cross members in the middle the extra one is for the DEF tank. Im sure Mike will figure it out . SCRUBS say NIKO BROS OTAY|
Looks like you need a bigger shop you guys have a lot of work.
Old bent cab is now gone, time for some reassembly at last. Still a lot of work but you like hard work. Thanks again Brothers for a new video. 👍
Loving this build videos way to short
Found your channel when you guys were doin the raptor, love the videos, just got a hoodie in the mail today
Good Job 👌👍
So when you have finished will you be registering the car as the black one or the burnt white one (since I’m reality it is the black engine and interior in the white body and chassis). Which VIN/FIN will you use?
I always look forward to your videos. Thanks for the great content.
Amazing job 🤩🤩🤩💯💯💯👊🏼👊🏼👍👍
Today you answered my question about the running gears.
A giant leap forward, can't wait to see what's next.
Tnx for the video
Swap the rears first that way you can roll it around and you have the engine in there
@Qefna Ija get this crap out of here
You guys have the patience of saints! You know how many tools I would have thrown and how many F this comments I would've made? Keep it up, best channel on CZcams!
Wow! This project looks impossible! You guys are tackling it head on! I am enjoying the video's and can not wait to see the end result! There will be lots of stories go along with this truck for sure! I am thinking you should name it 'Frankenstein'!😁
Awesome project guys, love seeing the progress! 👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🤘🏻🤘🏻
Making great progress. Looking good, you will be driving it to pickup more projects soon. 👍
So far so good 👍
is the same gear ratio in the differentials??
ther is usually a diffence between petrol and diesel engine
Really coming along great. Stay focused and keep moving forward. We're all loving the videos!
Wow Guys this is a huge project! Since it's a long bed there will be rear wiring harness issues, exhaust, brake & fuel line issues and rear drive line issues so parts to find or fix. But man you Guys are getting to the better part of the rebuild. As always I am looking forward to the next video!
Thanks more to come
👍
Better you than me. just saying
Always look forward to videos from you guys.. You are doing a remarkable job on this truck build. Love the progress, keep it up..
At this point the black truck is a parts truck for the white 1. You are going to use the long box frame right? You need the axles out of the black truck
in other words old seat belts are ideal for using to take motors out
Man that is a big job and still a lot to do just don't forget too keep the same ecm with the vehicles cuz they won't start
Looking good can't wait until it is finished.🏁
Awesome job guys.....Keep up the Great work!!!!!
👍👍
I like the videos but you guys have no idea if that Diesel engine is any good. Aren’t you worried about that?
I'm impressed with the amount of man-hours this build must be running. Would be interesting to tally up the total labor cost at the end, as if you were going to do this for a customer.
your gona want to swap the steering box as well
Man that's a loooong transmission!
here in Australia the Australian design rule states that the seat be able to take weight of the vehicle which in most cases is approx 2.5 ton
Get some rust converter on those front end parts Michael.. Great Job removing the engine bro.
Get rid of the DEF system. Nobody is going to know that you did it. Just don't put it on video, or just gut the inside of the DEF system. That way it will look like it is there. Great job sir.
Wassup
great series, very ambitious. are you concerned about the suspension differences between the diesel and gas versions? stuff like spring rates, sway bar thickness and also axle ratios?
That driveshaft won’t work will it? Different length frames means different wheelbase.
CRAZY!! A day on the frame rack and the diesel frame could have been straightened- no need to spend days to swap all those components from 1 frame to another.
ya not sure about this taking it off a bent frame and putting it on a heat weakened frame not sure how much there gaining
@@pupbiking Yeah and they have to swap everything= fuel system , brake lines, wiring, both differentials- plus there are gonna be differences in the frames- brackets, clips etc.
Won't all the lines & harness's be to short?
Isn't the burnt truck a longbed? Wrecked truck shortbed?
Whew ! That's a lot of work, never mind remembering how you put it back together.... So you are using the toasted cab, bed, and chassis, and moving the 4x4 drive train,, diesel parts into it?
Great work Gentleman but why not give th entire frame a paint job make it uniform 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
What happened to the the truck that was in the lake 😳 I didn't see the video of that
Wow love the videos y’all make
Just wondering when doing this which vin number does it get?
couldn't tell that the frame was bent or could it not be straightened? And the cab also, I thought if you were buying a new roof couldn't you used it on the black cab or were the pillars too badly damaged. Just thought it would have saved a ton of work if the frame or the cab could have been fixed
What is the depth system
✌️❤️🖖
can that frame not be repaired,i would think it would be less work
isnt that diesel frame more beefy than a gas frame?
They the same
"we can't get rid of the DEF system, right guys...."
Me: Michigan doesn't have car inspections. Just saying
I just want to know which brother is the oldest and how far apart the ages are?
Ivan is 1 year older
if that frame isn’t that bad why not just throw it on the frame rack , swapping all those parts is going to be a pain.
Did you sell your Cat skid steer ?
No the turbo went out
👏👏👊👊👍👍🙏🙏
💙✌️🇬🇭💗
Good CZcams content guys , otherwise just not worth the effort.
👍👍
