I bought a cheap 2000 Chevy S10 and fixed it

[@deannelson9301]

Please use jack stands when your working under a vehicle; a guy down the road from me dyed last year when his car fell on him.

[@99Projects]

yea i probably should do that, good advice

[@endemicsum6013]

Or at least put the tires under the truck so it does not crush you

[@stevemiller.]

@99Projects lol sounds like the people I work with that'll just do there own thing anyway.

[@jakesizemore5885]

Yeah I a agree 👍 💯

[@appnzllr]

Your dog is great! I've always thought that most of the time the frost on the headlights is because people took their car to the car wash and used the spray wax.

[@matthoman5215]

I know most people won't buy new hardware, especially if their truck was cheap but you get what you pay for. I paid 270 dollars for a 1999 f150, and it needed 100 to get it road worthy. With that said, the drivers side door hinge and the hood latch failed two years after I bought the truck in 2017. I bought both replacements from my local Ford dealership. It wasn't hideously expensive, and my logic is that those pieces lasted 20 years in the northeast with all the snow and salt that comes with it, so they must be good quality. Time is money too, do you want to do the job once or a few times? I still own my truck, and it's now 25 years old with 212,000 on the clock, and I've not had to touch the hardware I've installed since I put in.

Bought a few broken cars and fixed them recently. Usually not because it’s a good deal but because it’s a rare spec worth fixing. Like my most recent, a 97’ 4.3 4x4 5 speed s10 for 400$. Just needed another 1000$ in parts and it’s good. Had to do throw out bearing, brake lines, spider injection, and most various small stuff/maintance. If you got the time and space fixing broken shit is so rewarding

[@99Projects]

It is very rewarding

[@ryan9023]

Y were the first 4 mins of vid of this guy throwing some wood in a chipper lol.

[@zakimirza5648]

Loved your oil pan...👍

[@Wingnut_Stickman]

Max needs a welding helmet. Excellent video. Thanks for sharing.

[@99Projects]

i should have a welding hood made for him lol

[@EnDependance123]

The hinges on those is common problem, i had an 86 did same. I just bent the holding brackets up a hair

[@Sh0ck556]

I’ve replaced my s10 door pins twice and the same thing happened immediately afterwards, brass bushings broke. The last time I ended up welding flat washers onto the brackets which held the pins into place

[@pinkladybikermamma3603]

DUDE GOT TO GIVE YOU POINTS FOR DOING IT OUTSIDE.

[@99Projects]

have to work with what you got to get the job done, thanks for watching

[@wingandhog]

Most folks place a jack or jack stand under the door to hold it level while replacing pins 16:45

[@justjay_09]

Appreciate the video! Just been watching a ton 😅

[@drewdew6874]

My sonoma 99 2wd sls has 259k and has less rust. Im having trouble with the gas tank leaking from rust under the plastic cover

[@99Projects]

There good trucks. I put a lot of miles on it

[@oliseovazquez6113]

all that rust, a thing of beauty.

[@DavidRobinson-mx6cl]

Brass fittings are junk , go with copper or tool steel bushings !!!!!👍

[@99Projects]

Ya know tool steel is a good idea. I never thought about that

[@DavidRobinson-mx6cl]

@@99Projects I had no luck with brass bushings , like you said, maybe two weeks. Copper lasted longer , depending on how wallowed out the hinges are , tool steel seems to last ! Might have to order them specifically to size or get them turned on a lathe !!! 👍

[@DunlapsGarage]

I have the same problem with my s10 thinking about doing the same thing with the doors how long do you think it will last?

[@99Projects]

I think it would last years at least. If you live in the north east, taking the age of those trucks into consideration it should easily out last the truck.

[@DunlapsGarage]

@@99Projects i live in ohio and yeah it’s actually the hinge is worse now so when i replace the bushing it don’t do much so i’m prob gonna just weld a bolt

[@99Projects]

@@DunlapsGarage Yea and the hinges are annoying to change.

[@photondebuger45]

Bruh you made me laugh with the ratchet on the door hinge pins I'm like what is bruh doing with a hand tool?... The hand tool is the 3 pound mini sledge to the door lol

[@nomadbud4378]

LOL The guy paints over mud

[@lespaul9078]

That makes it gooder

[@DSGLABEL]

Did you see the frame when he did the shock. Its a salted NY truck. It's days are numbered anyway. Around here you di what ya can to get a couple more years before it ends up at the scrap yard

[@barnabius]

@@DSGLABELI went two years with only one cab mount connected and I’ve been driving a year with three shocks. These trucks will keep going in a lot worse condition than this lol

[@DSGLABEL]

@barnabius I have too. People not on the rust belt don't get the struggle. 😆

[@barnabius]

@DSGLABEL most of the frame is just there for show anyway 🤷‍♂️

[@wingandhog]

19:28 There ya go! (Jack the door)

[@jamesmorgan6782]

Excellent video and thanks.

[@cateward7043]

When the video went quiet, was that because of demonic swearing?

[@doober8349]

Harbor freight jack no jack stands living on the edge I see

[@erin9531]

👍🏻

[@stangman1268]

plenty of of comments to let you know how unsafe it is to work under a vehicle without jack stands,even those cynder blocks would of came in handy,sometimes HF has the 3 ton on sale for like $35,don't risk your life.

[@99Projects]

@@stangman1268 putting a hf jack stand under there would be risking life

[@stevenrice3426]

I have A 2000 S10. Up until that year of production was a certain design. After production of the 2k modal was another design. 2k S10 are a poor design all the way around.

[@nathanmccumber8965]

What about 04?

[@johndowns7536]

A good example of how frugality doesn't make you rich.

[@99Projects]

Not always but in this case it permanently fixed a problem

[@Justin1020304]

Yeah spray painting over rust holes was just brilliant

[@DanThayer-k3x]

Junk design on S10 hinges...I've done mine twice..still junk.. bronze bushings..next rodeo I'm gonna either drill out the Holes n put bolt's n there or just tryin find steel bushing's at the harware store ..they do sell steel pins n bushing kit's online called Enduro pins 100 bucks a side . ridiculous.. I'll Dano engineer my own before spending that lol 😂

[@99Projects]

bolts and a welder are alot cheaper and more permanent

[@huggi3z08]

At least put the wheels under the truck Jesus, I’m a few years late lol

[@arthurcutaiar9994]

What a hack

[@barnabius]

Fully rebuilt! Lost the receipts
