This Cheap Semi Truck Breaks Down on my Way Home…

[@dustyfarmer]

You should sign that helmet with a gold metal flake paint pen. It might turn up on Pawn Stars with the seller wanting $25,000.

"Let me get an expert" 😂

[@heatherscott7758]

Love wen

[@Placeui]

That's a lot of money no I can't do that😅😅😅

[@nostreamavailable9090]

Would be really cool to see you do more flip projects mate, you and the guys have the skills and the facilities to do it easy and would be far more positive and productive content than the destroying stuff. God bless you and the family and best wishes from the north west of England Jay 🙏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️🇺🇸

[@gmcgmc9297]

You should check the front brakes

[@ericgriffin397]

Those Mercedes engines are awesome, great power, reliable but they do need regular maintenance. It's a good fixer uper! It does need some paint on that rusty frame but looks good for a starter truck.

[@marcwilliamson4774]

Could be a work truck, until his daycab 389 arrives. If he gets it o a Bruce standard and uses it, could do well with resale

[@Jamk14]

Naw there fucking junk

[@leejohnson6173]

You are literally the only person that thinks thoes are reliable..they kill the value of trucks and people usually stay away for good reason.

[@scottvaughan473]

That freight train noises you hear is the diaphragm on the bottom of the air dryer sticking. Needs service or a new air dryer.

[@jamesvice7366]

You think you should've checked all the fluids before starting it and taking it home?

[@brucebird133]

That was my first thought, specially in teh shit condition it was in

[@markshuput5228]

I drove a Columbia for about 6 months before my International LT. Always iffy if the freightliner would would even even make it back. I prayed that it would burn. Total POS.

[@Qtip218]

This dude doesn’t have a clue I wouldn’t buy a bicycle off him let alone a piece of equipment or a truck

[@jaronjober537]

The frame looks cooked from the rear of the truck. Both rails are rolled out. And I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure putting water in these things can cavitate the liners.

[@paulbirtwell]

You should go back to doing videos like your older ones, out on the road picking tracktors up

[@mstg966]

The 12/12 inspectors sticker should have spoken volumes lol

[@Trenton-om9qs]

Id use those rear axles on the Pulling truck. Even though its a turd maybe it would be an ok parts truck😂

[@matthewpowell5278]

Somebody has already gotten the goodie out of that one. Lol

[@matthewg-yb7zg]

The super clean applied to the dry side of the hood looked like it stained it as compared to when you applied it to the other side after it had been watered down

[@michaelwallace7192]

Bruce check the right front break I you said it was smoking so your break may be hanging up up front

[@RealMaGicXz]

didnt you check coolant before you left isnt that one of the first things to check on a vehicle you buy

[@sdfarmer6070]

Mercedes are the worst engine they ever put in trucks even worse than a paccar and paccar a are worse than stock Detroits

[@BrandonLeech]

LOL, why the hell would you buy that clapped out pile of junk?

[@bradleysmith3122]

Man that camera man took his life in his hands when he walk in front of the tires while it was hung on the handler. Sketchy AF😅

[@frankmeyer8137]

Power wash and polish the wheels that will make run better lol

[@schizy]

What's with the zero resolution potato cam?

[@jonathanbulman1184]

I seen you cruising up i75 in Georgia yesterday

[@BillyLizza-ob5kn]

Bruce I know what it's like to Have Problems My Car Needs to be Fixed And I have Trucks on my truck Simulator Game That needs Repairs Keep Up the good work Billy Lizza Uniontown pa

[@williamquick6153]

If you want to engage that pto you have to push the clutch in, engage the pto then let the clutch out

[@johnwarren6667]

When bobtail only front axle brakes

[@jeremywilson6337]

Has a junk engine in it It's worthless

[@stephenhenry7300]

Don’t those engines have a bad rep?

[@stephenhenry7300]

Don’t those engines have a bad rep?

[@davidwilliams6645]

Man I had a trk with a Mercedes Benz motor. I love the trk hated the motor. You couldn't give me one of those motors..

[@DOCTRJ]

Send it straight here lmfao

[@Roadglide911]

Give away the freightliner 😊

[@blazex469]

So how hard is it gonna be to put those locking rears in the Pullin truck?

[@chriscardaropoli4227]

classic Mercedes head gasket

[@beaulunawolf1198]

Did you ever have all the damages done by that custom shop fixed on the 389? Never saw a follow up.

[@OG_GeneralPerchie]

Put a ton of seafoam in it bud

[@garybattle1293]

Come on Bruce didn't you do a pre-trip on this

[@johntaylor7798]

Hear that noise 😂😂

[@Jon4784]

On today's episode of will this P.O.S. start lol

[@krispayne729]

Might be worth taking the gifts out of that newer freightliner and putting them in your old cab over. Then it would have blocked in differentials. Maybe even the transmission if it's like an 18 speed.

[@righttobloodydissent]

You should throw the helm away as it is not safe to use anymore. The polystyrene inside shrinks as it ages and hence the exp date. Some one might try and use it one day so cut the straps off.

[@dustyfarmer]

I thought the impact absorbing polystyrene goes hard over time which is one reason why they have an expiry date.

[@Ontheroadagain20]

The title says it all

[@johnruiz2609]

Seems like that super clean had a bad reacting to the sap or whatever residue that was built up on the hood and it ended up staining it

[@sam313skunk]

will it START!?!?!?

[@SPARTAN_Cayde-26]

MB engines are super rare to not work, so its not problem with the engine itself. MBs are pretty much the world's most reliable engine, yea maybe because MB is the first automobile company that was made...

[@Chaudharyabhishek_1852]

Do you have instagram 🎉 I'd

[@jeepercreepers2]

Pulling truck #2 Build. You have 2 tractors. Why not

[@Bruce_Wilson]

Something big is coming

[@carlfrizell2849]

Hey Bruce it looks like it's the foot valve, just check on the heal of it that there's no crap built up there preventing it releasing properly or that the pin it hinges on isn't tight before you go to the expense of changing it, I hope this helps. 😊

[@jacobkoppel4820]

A Mercedes 4000. Congrats on the boat anchor! 😂

[@Fivestar833]

Can you say money pitt

[@nostreamavailable9090]

Hey Bruce what was the name of that spray cleaner you used there please mate ?

[@cjfreefire1771]

don't cut the frame just do a axle swap

[@holdenbrougham1056]

Spraying the truck with a pissy can like that, slow as shit, bet the water on its own with just truck wash

[@TxJacob713]

Best workhorses. Those 12.8 Mercedes benz diesels aee underrated

[@joshgoss109]

I know a highschool band program that could really use a semi to pull there dry van. They have an old cab over that's seen better days.

[@rcg4404]

What kind of Cabover?

[@joshgoss109]

@rcg4404 I think it's a freightliner I will have to check

[@rcg4404]

@@joshgoss109 single axle?

[@a456987]

You oughta make fixing trucks to sell a regular part of the channel

[@DieselAddict-vs9fc]

I know freightliner get alot of shit. But I'd drive one with a 12.7 60 series on it. Easy to work on and can make 550hp out of them with tuning and bypass the biometric pressure switch.

[@WillChandlerFLD120]

I didn't know helmets had expiration dates. Well all of mine are junk😂 it's OK I don't ride anymore .too dangerous for an old guy like me. Learn something new everyday.

[@mikegleeson349]

Just to pass on something I learned about Superclean, in the concentrated form mixed with water, in a sprayer will remove layers of skin from your hands (wear gloves) it will also discolor (yellow) painted surfaces if applied in the sun on hot surfaces. It dulls polished Alcoa Wheels (acid) and if it's left on too long it will remove paint, I learned this washing the exterior of my new Cargomaster trailer, to remove the lot rot, gray rain streaks from the sides. Remember, if your hands are itchy and burning, you're losing skin! Love the content, keep em spinning!

[@huggy1712]

Hi Bruce not a bad truck needs little work I think good profit off of it did I hear you rite you are picking up B-BLUE-C cool can’t wait take care stay safe G.Whyte

[@stevengullison410]

You will have a beautiful looking truck. Just put the other style of hood on it. They will work, me and brother did one and it looks great

[@Craftsmankidd1998]

Looks like the rear brake adjustment is only traveling about a 1/4in I’d back off the rear slacks a little bit they seem adjusted up a bit tight

[@carldrexler7883]

Columbias were a cheaper version of the century

[@loganb5657]

thing is a turd 😂

[@predator0121]

Those Freightliner Columbia cabs are real bad about clogging the radiator with dust. I have had 3 of them and we had to pull the cooling package and give them a thorough cleaning, on all 3, about every 2 years. I would love to come and help on some of these trucks. I live 2 hours from you at least until November.

[@dieselgaint]

I really like those mercedes engines. They have really good torque, great on fuel and its lightweight. Not much for horsepower stock but that engine has been used in race trucks in Europe. They sound really good no muffler.

[@wildbill5126]

Bruce Is it worth your time to even work on it. I know you said it's a friends but she looks and sounds WELL Used up. Just sayin, your time is worth $$$$$

Wheres the giveaway truck i need so badly

[@robertwelch3899]

You should get rid of the Junk 'N' Carry. Solar booster pac is where its at.

[@darrinfry2251]

Is 440 cb shop still in business??

[@marvinkanagy7326]

I was wondering the same thing myself

[@Noah29904]

If it had a Detroit, it’ll be more reliable I’m sure you can fix her up I’ll say she’s a 2.5/10 she don’t sound good

[@Krause_transport_garage]

When jumping you don’t hook up to 1 battery. Hook 1 cable to the first battery and the other cable to the last battery so you get all the battery power including the jump box to start the trucks.

[@Nofear25]

Ok you win 🥇 # Ryan is the new boss now Ryans name means little king 👑 Sorry Bruce 😂

[@oscartutt2040]

I had one of them b4 with that same engine they have 6 individual heads on them and the head gasket always goes out on one of the heads causing coolant leak pop that side cover off you can see which one it is

[@justinmcclanahan6036]

Take out the Mercedes engine & put in a Cat or Cummins in it bcause that Mercedes sounds like crap

[@motorlife5239]

hey bruce whoever told u your helmet expires their a lying sack of torpedoes helmets do not expire

[@kevinsnell1622]

It’s going to need a cattle guard bumper assembly with some bling because that stock front end is a real ugly duckling.

[@ChrisBartsch-xc1eq]

Don’t sell it just get a new paint job and put some good stacks on there. Maybe make it a little bit longer.

[@dano4572]

YEAH!!!! MIGHT BE A BIG MISTAKE. NO WORRY,,,,, THE WIFE'S NEW HOUSE CAN WAIT!!

Man the camera guys laugh makes my day lol 😂

[@theannoyingbanana8730]

Purple power is what you need to clean it

Hope I win i need something new to play with oh and and that 1500 would come in handy being unemployed sucks

[@scubajoe3321]

[@austinprather2981]

I would say scrap the truck and keep the axles for the pulling truck

[@chrisender1079]

is it a mbe926 or what is the engine in it

[@ricochetey]

Doubt they even checked the oil. Didn't bring coolant, just jumpers. 😕 Poor truck.
