Texas 20” Drop Bumper for the Cabover! She’s Charging!!

[@donaldwilliams6821]

Yes Bruce, we do appreciate you making these videos with BC even in the rain. You are the mailman of YT videos! Nothing stops you. Thank you for going back to BC and getting that project restarted. That on the road is probably one of your best advertising tools. I like that it's a working mans truck. Not a show truck. It maybe old but it's not obsolete yet. Though maybe go back to your tuner and turn back down the smoke level. :) Great video, please keep them coming.

[@ETGcasper]

Hell yea brother

[@carriebrumley8926]

I agree with Bryan bumper is shakey but looks good thanks for working in the rain!!

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

OKAY NOW WERE TALKIN BRUCE MAKE THIS RIG THE SHOW TRUCK IT DEFINITELY DESERVES TO BE. 👍🏻👍🏻 I'M NOT GONNA LIE BUT I'M 100% SURE THAT YOUR THE REASON EVERYONE STARTED PULLING CABOVER'S OUT OF THE WOODS I NEVER THOUGHT WE WOULD EVER HAVE THEM BACK LIKE ARE NOW THANKS FOR DOING IT AND MAKING US ALL GO WITH PRE ADMISSION TRUCK'S BRINGING OLD SCHOOL KOOL BACK DRIV,AH.

[@john4886]

Nice looking Freightliner,I like the light blue cab color. Buying part's for any semi truck will be expensive!

[@markgoddard3115]

Home town boy win the jump box!!!!! BC looking Good!!!! Keep getting r done son! Love to see y'all bring BC to the tri state antique show Winchester va. 23 24 25 this month

[@GazEdwards8690]

As they say chrome don’t get you home but gives you something to polish while waiting for the tow truck. Nice looking sweet.

[@davidberryhill1123]

I've always had bad luck with reman starters & alternators so I always get new ones now.

[@claudioaeromodelismo4680]

Good morning Bruce I like your videos. You rescue old machines and trucks congratulations

[@davidroberts3692]

Hey Bruce for your electrical repairs how about a couple of junction boxes. Didn’t know if that was what you were talking about, but they make the job easier and later on easier repairs. A little dilectric grease helps to!

[@metalhead7181]

We appreciate you doing the video even in the rain Bruce. .👍 You got Blue collar looking good..

[@LMM_WADE]

love the new bumper, it shakes for the Ole Freight Shaker

[@barrettmcdougall7124]

Bruce is a man of his word he said he’s gonna make a video working on blue collar every day of this week and he is, rain or shine.

[@tsulas03]

Love this truck. It's time to wrap it. Might be way cheaper than painting!

[@tommyhall2768]

Hey Bruce good to see again buddy see you soon be safe out there see you in the next one

[@HAWKTUAHH]

i could watch both of the cab overs content for eternity.

[@jamesspencer9091]

IOld blue collar looks good with that new bumper. Never mind how floppy the mount bracket it is. It bends to make the truck more arrow dynamic. Lol 😂 I think a couple lights down on the bottom of each side of it will really look good. Keep it up she’s slowly coming back around.

[@waynekibich3753]

Nice to see the old girl getting some love . Maybe some day think about painting her

[@Lunerlander]

Hey Bruce, since your building a collection of trucks now, would it be viable for you to pour a concrete pad or pave a section of the yard and add a roof to stay dry and work on stuff?

[@Tysmopars69]

Nah just stay soakin wet lol *** Joking aside I agree I would make that pad have drains and put a pressure washer out there enclosed so when you have equipment coming in kick that washer on blast it clean once water drains you can wipe down and proceed 🤙 I have a million ideas like you but I don’t make enough to make my dreams and thoughts come true 😅 so I just suggest it and smile while everyone else does it lol

[@glen511]

More improvements means more taxes. Valuations goes up, overhead go up unfortunately.

[@mattlyle455]

Howdy Bruce!! Another great video!! Blue Collar is looking Sharp!! Please 🙏 🙏 keep her Ol'School cool as much as possible!! The Rubber Duck from Lima, Ohio checkin in!!!

[@tuff._truckers_-ja14]

8" bull horn stacks would look nice on that bad boy who agree?

[@BigHoss920]

Yup!

[@lesleysweni8656]

100% i agree with a cat engine

[@Sevunteen]

Nacogdoches brings back many old frat parties at Stephen f Austin with Mr Andrew Leary in mind, Good times.

[@GenAfterNextTactics]

That’s my favorite cabover on KZbin.

[@Invinciblemoam]

I’d love to see more of the interior, a full tour of the sleep and your plans

[@Jeff-bq6qe]

Bruce you and Ryan work so good together

[@saleenX02]

Nacogdoches is gorgeous. Went to college there! You'll love it!

[@paultroaini4142]

Bruce "Blue Collar" is looking GREAT I have been Enjoying Your site since You started it, been watching that Cabover grow into the sweet ride it is ,Don't know Your plans for rear fenders but I think it would look SUPER KOOL with the long One Piece Fenders that would make the lines in the rear of the truck flow ever so Smoothly, anyway the Very Best to You & Your Family Always ,Keep Rolling Forward with Your positivity & to HELL with the trolls ! Missouri Paul 👌😎👌👍🇺🇸👍🤗🌞 👀👂🤞

[@melgoss64]

Cmon man! Restore one of these beautiful rigs back to show room

[@josuehernandez097]

Love see the video of you Fixing up blue-collar

[@ben6119]

Progress! It is coming along!

[@IainInLondon]

I appreciate the work you put into your videos - I enjoy your daily uploads.

[@gregknight9559]

Good to see Brian in Fl.

[@pappybigbearUtqiagkia5840]

Wtg. Keep. Old school on the road. I run my 1987 ext Pete early 379 4 days week. With my raven dump. Semi retired. Sons run business up to 35 tri axles and 20 tractors plenty old school rigs complete redone.

[@mahatma171]

12:48 I jumped lol… PTSD I think I’ve been there too many times 🤷🏾‍♂️😂

[@masterful7574]

"Litterly" is not a word.

[@fredschell3972]

I think a cabover looks better standing tall. I f you want a low cabover you can find a forward cab International. That Freightliner is beautiful Bruce. The only thing I would change would be the motor. Change it to a 12.7 Detroit. Keep up the good video's. Can't wait to see the Freightliner finished.

[@jonah8961]

Nice work .

[@tuff._truckers_-ja14]

That cabover is going to be badass🔥💪💯

[@ruston723]

Love the CABOVER I have a 07 Argosy love it to

[@robertsmith7580]

I bet there is a hell of a core charge on that alternator !

[@tomclaes450]

The truck off the trucks blue cabover rules she is a beauty👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@richardhoneywell7411]

Great video Bruce BC looks good can't wait to see the next video stay safe Bruce.

[@dangit4341]

[@benjaminstockton3917]

Appreciate the videos Bruce that bumper looks good buddy 👍

[@riggsandmurtaugh7938]

My dad had one like that with a big cam 3 and 15 spd

[@mikenicholson2548]

Bruce were did you get the chrome door pockets for your cabover. I have two freightliners that need new ones. Thanks

[@RobertTouchtone]

Some old school round perlux driving lights would look cool under that bumper

[@justindearborn7275]

Love the commitment to the cabover! Reminds me of the old BW days 👍👍👍 great stuff

[@austinhancock4525]

blue collar is coming together good

[@renas8670]

I personally like you working on the older trucks and blue collar is no exception, it’s great to have content on it as it’s the coolest one in your collection but I can’t help but notice that you are just throwing things together and rushing the build, it would really benefit the truck long term if you started doing things properly the first time around, i.e get that bumper mounted properly, make a list of parts needed that can be changed while you’re in there before you take something apart (like changing vacuum hoses while taking off parts of the air suspension), this way you’re future proofing and won’t have to constantly go back to and repair things. Give this truck the love it deserves, right now it looks like you’re doing it all just cause the viewers asked for it. Where’s your passion for blue collar gone?

[@LucasMoening]

Right on man. I love that truck.

[@MaxtronusPrime_]

Holy shit Bruce, you are going to be near me, I live close by Nacogdoches, Texas.

[@randykoenig6155]

Been to the chrome shop many times awesome place!!!

[@markkraczek8715]

Good name alternator! 🤙

[@jeffreyhoughland2715]

Ive been to nac alot with my other company i worked for little town im 5 hours north there

[@diegohenriquezgarita5356]

Excelente video hermano

[@Dhane-0]

If ya get the cabover wiring fixed and everything working right, you could sell it and prob get enough dough to bring that sweet w900 back to life 👌😂

[@willywijtvliet6502]

het wordt een stoere trekker leuk om te zien

[@livin_liftd]

Some dual 8 inch bull horn stacks would look killer on blue collar

[@HumbledGod]

you can use a leather strap for the door "bump stop" peterbilt cabovers have them stock i think

[@danielelliott1570]

I'm really enjoying these blue collar videos

[@levibass]

New bumper looks good. Good to see Brian and Blue Collar getting some TLC

[@vaughnhill3437]

Hell old blue collar is so long it would make a heck of a rollback for hauling equipment

[@DuncanMeter]

She’s a beaut, Clark! ❤

[@chase5896]

Let's freaking go boyssss

[@keithfrazier2558]

When your back in Tennessee at Semi Casual maybe have them warranty out the alternator for a spare? If you can find the paperwork.

[@keithfrazier2558]

The rebuilder is "them" not Semi Casual

[@edwardstephens247]

Boy, you were lucky! Bruce, you know better by not disconnecting the battery first before installing the new alternator!

[@dennispriser769]

At least it was dried under the cab lol, hopefully new alternator works out.

[@logan8990]

Dude I’d love to buy you and the crew a round of beers. Live in Nacogdoches now. Just holler!

[@realkilju]

The bumper looks really damn good 👍 but why is there such a big gap at the top of the bumper and the grille? Old one didnt have that

[@Shakira_6.0]

Wondering the same

[@mikeb2368]

When you tip the cab. You need the room.

[@warrenmichael918]

@@mikeb2368 yes, but the old one was up at least 2 inches higher than this new one. Looks like he could drill a few new holes in his bracket and get it an inch or so higher to fill that gap better.

[@vincentlawrence5603]

I live in Nacogdoches!!!!! Hell ya brother!!

[@edwardstephens247]

I appreciate you, Bruce, for all your dedication to your trucks and the channel!

[@Shedhauler]

If you want to drop it just a little pull out the blocks under them front leaf springs. It looks like that’ll drop it 2”. It’ll make a huge difference.

[@371508129]

With all the RV’s around here you should get a hydraulic pump off a rv slide out and use it to raise and lower the cab. No more pumping.

[@vaughnhill3437]

Hell put that old bumper on white collar. It would make it look a little better

[@lloydrobinson7081]

keep the clips coming

[@adamprost6024]

I like watching the videos of you working on the old truck how long have you had the old truck can you keep showing more videos of other other work you do to the truck

[@TJAMES747]

Best truck on the tube

[@charlesroer972]

Nice rig . Would like that vehicle is brought up to 100% before glitz.

[@timoneill2451]

She looks good with new bumper .how coustom rear fender covers .like dark blue marker lights on cab.dont know if thats legal

[@markb.1259]

I think that bumper would look like it fits better if it was 3 inches shorter in length. Glad you got it charging now.

[@dalemcconnell8015]

U should buy a bax Trailer for blue collar Paint it to match and put some kind of cool design on it for your tractor business

[@glentyler603]

Just call it the Freight Shaker!

[@shanemoves2567]

Just started watching, bad ass videos!! Love the energy AND content! Keep Rocking🤘 The locals call it Naco-nowhere hahha. My brother went there for college @ Stephen F. Austin in the 90's, said the girl to guy ratio was 3 to 1! My reply was, bet the goat to guy is 6 to 1!! Win either way...

[@wayneedwards249]

Looked better with both stacks!!

[@JasonSmith-vd1sz]

You’re doing great Bruce even in the rain. You’re the man!

[@HotRodingSmallscale]

Hey Bruce how can I get one of those model trucks it's not on your merch shop?

[@edwardndriskoll]

Need chrome wheel flares for the front to blend into the bumper.

[@bbrcummins1984]

Riley auto electric in Homosassa Bruce is the best for rebuilding heavy duty starters and alternators.

[@edwardstephens247]

SMOKE ANOTHER ONE!

[@eddiereichel9354]

15:05 A dead battery or Incase of multiple dead batteries is one of the top killers of alternators

[@egomaniac247]

I can appreciate guys who trick out their trucks at chrome shops but dang I much more highly appreciate stock vehicles with some patena

[@ericgriffin397]

Beautiful truck!!!

[@stevefriedlander8091]

I live 70 miles from Nacogdoches.Is there going to be a truck show, if so when and where?

[@jerredwayne8401]
