man you guys are amazing at this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Some words of wisdom I heard once were "Nobody gets rid of a problem free truck." It cleaned up really nice. Looks like it was worth the time and money.
Isn’t that the truth. We’re very pleased with how it came out. I’m sure it’ll continue to be a work in progress.
Man anyone who says they wouldn’t drive that truck isn’t nuts. Great job getting her back in shape. ✌️
Thanks for always being positive and supportive. We appreciate you Ron!
That is a nice clutch jack!! Wish my shop had one... would make life a lot easier...
It does! It’s an expense but it pays for itself in no time.
cant wait to see what you all do with that classics in the back ground
Thanks dude, I’ll be back on that truck hopefully very soon!
Great content.....thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
All that work for a steeringwheel holder to lay it on its side in two months. 👍👍👍
That’s like saying. Why wash your truck,it’s just gonna get dirty again. Some people get it and some people don’t.
Can't say enough. Outstanding Job. ! WELL DONE.
That truck should be a Real Money Maker. Best of Luck. Stay Safe out There. ! 🇺🇸🏆
Thanks bud!

I’ll see what we can do about getting some driving footage!
@@GCCGarage thanks bro appreciate ya driv,ah
Great Job
Fender mirrors too. Those holes would drive me nuts.
We filled the holes with stainless bolts temporarily, but we’re on the hunt for a new hood. That type of stuff drives us nuts too.
I have an 05 freightshaker, I love it it keeps me awake it’s loud not like these new trucks that drive like a super quiet car
We love us some FreightShakers!
The "Ol Girl" cleaned up like a shiny new penny 😊
Now it time for her to generate some revenue at a fraction of the cost of one of the new sensored plastic trucks. AND Do it more reliably yer sum smart fellers 😅
Thanks, old trucks are a labor of love, but it’s much more practical than chasing issues with emissions equipment. Makes it feasible to keep all repair in house as well.
A lot of sleuth work, but what a result! So much easier if you could just talk to the driver(s)....
Outstanding work! That truck should be good to go for years to come
We sure hope so. Stay tuned for even more upgrades in an upcoming video!
I really enjoy watching two guys that are as meticulous about there work as you guys !! Nice job getting the truck back in shape ! I wish i had your knowledge and energy. Great job ! John Taylor
We appreciate the kind words John. It certainly takes a lot of energy, but after weeks of hardworking it’s nice to step back and see the end result!
Lights more lights also are you going to polish out the steps?
Hahaha! I told Garett that we could run some lights down the fairings when we paint the frame. I’d just like to repair the side fairings first. 😂 Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@GCCGarage even if you put just a few glass watermelons like three down the sides and both mirrors it would look really good.
If your going to change the motor mounts use original rubber not the blue ones
I’m having similar shakes to my rig 6nz with a 18 speed I’m going to look into hopefully it calms the shakes
We’ve had really great luck with the Atro poly bushings and motor mounts. The only thing I would suggest is replacing them all, as you don’t want to mix rubber mounts with the poly ones. Hope you’re able to fix your vibration.
We all like a dirty girl here and there looks good!
Thanks!
Dose garret own that trucking company ?
