As a 14 yr old back in 1958, I enjoyed helping my neighbor change the oil and filters on his big rig and he also had his own gas pump, so we filled his rig as well. He drove for Roadway Express if I remember correctly, and he always took us for a quick ride for helping him out. Even at the ripe age of 75 I still enjoy watching them get maintained.

When pre-filling filters I always fill through the small hole not the large one. That way the fluid actually goes through the filter element. If any crud happened to get in there when filling it would go straight into the compartment unfiltered. Just food for thought. Cool old IH truck!

[@dennisspencer1113]

You mentioned that the shifting seemed "stiff". Looks like you have an Eaton-Fuller transmission so the shift lever should go into a control box that actuates the shifting. There's a drain plug on the bottom/side of the box - remove and drain. Fill/clean with some diesel and refill with some light motor oil. Use synthetic if you're headed for cold country.

[@dennisspencer1113]

@Christian Macri With cabovers, the stick doesn't work directly on the transmission. It goes to a control box that is mechanically linked to the transmission. The box contains oil and the rubber boot can allow water to get into box that creates a heavy brown goo. The box has a drain plug and it should be serviced every year or so.

You also have a oil filter in your "Power Steering Reservoir" container on your frame behind cab.

[@jamespowell3056]

The truck will love you for draining out the old oil and putting in new oil.

[@Alextheampguy]

too keep the engine happy and nice running. When you change out that old diesel ad a small can of 2 stroke oil to it. It will help lubricate the fuel pump and rest of the system and freshing up the seals too.

[@gregdcross]

Some suggestions based upon experience with old trucks; If you are planning on taking it on a public road, change every air line going to the brake chambers. The law will be pulling you over and checking for old cracked airlines. Second, replace ALL of the fuel lines - both supply and return. Old fuel lines will crack and draw air into the fuel and return lines will leak. Once you start driving the truck, all of the vibrations will cause you a lot of leaks in the fuel and air lines because they have gotten brittle over time. And last, the air diaphragm in the brake chambers are 20 years old - ie just ready to burst. Yes, you can rebuild them but use a lot of caution because there is a powerful spring inside the brake can. Rehabilitation of an old truck is more than making it pretty and changing fluids. Basically all plastic and rubber lines get brittle.

[@redpillcommando]

OMG I forgot about that. Those brake springs can be a killer. I used to know a truck mechanic that had a big chuck of his skull dented in from an accident with a brake spring. It seems a bit of gravel got jammed in the lock so that it did not fully engage. He pulled the housing and the spring popped lose and almost killed him. * Edited because I can't spell worth a flip!

[@loganfields4276]

A trick i learned with that is to plumb air into the spring brake to release it when piggybacking. You can also cage it but to me its way faster to just put a plug on it and hook an air hose to it

food for thought , always lay a piece of plywood , cardboard etcetera over the frame behind the cab and attach with a bungee cord , and do a quick test drive , the reason is the grease from lubing the drive line will sling all over the back of the cab , if you do the cardboard , what it slings is in the first city block , so you catch it and keep it off the cab ...

Just a tip..... take a hole punch and hammer, and punch a hole in the bottom of those oil filters BEFORE you break 'em loose, and drain 'em out.

[@Alextheampguy]

Even a oil that is old can still lubricate good enough. Usage not the age that counts when it comes to oil 😊 To check if the oil is still ok , put some between your fingers. If the oil is feeling dry and not sticky its time for a change. And btw . When you change the oil filter. Put some oil on the sealing. If you dont do that it will get stuck like you described when you removed the old one, and it will not seal like it should either. Keep up the good work . Learning by doing.

@lordbeavis69 No matter what he should change the oil and fuel filter not too many hours after starting to use it again with 20 years of rusting away. I would expect and keep looking for failures tbh. An engine sitting this long is going to have metal shavings more then usual and he will want to remove that asap

[@waynecrothers9441]

Never seen a grease gun like that, looks a great job, that ol Cummins sounded real sweet on the after oil n filters start, enjoying watching the progress...

[@TrekkerMoto]

With large oil filters, always punch a hole in the bottom and drain oil first.... Lowers the chance of a mess a TON and usually makes it easier to get them off. I use to change oil and larger cummins trucks a lot

[@daltonpearson7270]

Yes its missing the adjuster you need a whole new slack adjuster and it takes 4 lbs of grease for a full service

18:10 the sound of freedom in the wild.

[@Adhdroamer]

I'd use the old oil and brush all the frame rails and give underneath a good coat

[@MrFurriephillips]

*cringe*

[@Adhdroamer]

Hey don't knock it till you try it my boss does his truck every 6 months he's had his truck 30 years still looks brand new

[@khyron8509]

I've seen that done before and it has its pros and cons, it does keep road dirt off but I think I'd be happier using fresh oil if I was gonna do that, after all engine oil isn't overly expensive

[@Adhdroamer]

@Kien Tran oh definitely clean everything up first and undercoat it but the oil on top of that will help add another layer of protection. Yup he really does it and his truck is a lot better looking then most others you see on the road

[@joshuamcpeek4708]

@@AdhdroamerI have a 93 chrysler new yorker that's leaks tiny amounts of fluid from ever engine seal imaginable the rest of the car is in great shape, I like to joke and say the car saved its self, because the oil leaks all over the underbelly coating everything, the front suspension members are all still smooth black and shiny

[@nstorm390]

Not usually a rig guy but this is an awesome build. Keep up the good work. Cant wait to see it finished.

[@astevenson11]

It was hard to see in the video but I believe the part you need for your automatic slack adjuster is called a pawl. If you can find any part #'s on the adjuster you should be able to get a new pawl. If you can't take one from another adjuster. You should be able to remove the pawl from one of the good ones with a 3/4 wrench. Then you can take that to a parts company that deals with those parts and match one up.

[@shanesnerdworld]

personally would have cleaned the tanks before running it with the new filter. think you said your gonna replace them again anyway so all should be good.

[@shrexha2619]

Yes,he mentioned that,otherwise it would have made no sense

[@MeatGas]

A trick with the filters is too stab the bottom with a screwdriver because those filters can be heavy and that will get the oil out

[@alexstromberg7696]

Or not be a pussy

[@brandonruhl4525]

Alex Strömberg or stab it so you don’t get fuckin oil everywhere lol

[@thedude6299]

That was my trick on those big oil filters .stab a hole in the bottom which made a lot less mess compared to trying to unscrew them

[@jamesdougherty1533]

I was two when she cane out but love that truck

[@MrGeorge0285]

James Dougherty LoL. You old dude. I was only one.

[@PetterBruland]

I don't care at all about trucks.... but this is fascinating to watch. Thanks for sharing.

[@siopon88]

How the hell did KZbin knows that I'm a truck driver myself. Your video suddenly pop up and here I am now ended up being a subscriber myself. New Subscriber from North Borneo East Malaysia.

[@cody8754]

Find a low boy trailer for it and use it to drag home other projects or scrap old junk equipment and make some money

[@brandonfloyd6321]

I've been here since you had the 2wd extended cab long bed cummins on boggers catching air and doing donuts till tire came off bead.

[@jacobreed47]

Looking forward to the fuel system.

[@charlesmcgehee3227]

Oil is not too bad looking. Not solid black. I thing you should spray every surface showing rust with SeaFoam, and other rust inhibitor product. Very impressive deal and you are off to a great start. This will be a real beauty when done. Good channel.

[@cadlejustin]

Little tip for changing filters without making a mess, drive a screw driver or a hose pick through the bottom of them and let them drain before you take them off. Makes life a little easier.
