You have a nice shop and if your friends with Bob then I'd say your a good guy.

[@KeyesKustoms]

Wow man that is a great compliment, I really appreciate it!

[@danielpancu9841]

new suscriptor... for Bob... all. Good work, Mr. Wesley, thanks you.

[@KeyesKustoms]

Awesome bud!! Thank you!!

[@briankinnear7461]

If you love old Patches so much, why don't you build your own. You clearly have the talent. I love your rides. I'm a Ford guy but can see the great work done to any car. I subbed after seeing you with Bob the first time, a ways back. Back when Patches was still just getting started. Loved the video. You and Bob got a plan to fix what's left so can't wait to see that. Look forward to more. Be safe and stay well.

[@KeyesKustoms]

Wesley + Bob, and now you all really are all done but the finishin'! You know Bob hasn't pulled Red from out front of Elvira for several weeks! You all might need some of Red's insight to truly fine tune that Rat Rod to perfection! Just sayin'!

[@KeyesKustoms]

lol you might be right, we need some gear head advice from red.

Seems ole Bob is pretty famous with hot rod lol

[@davidgough1161]

go up on the power valve and use a smaller secondary spring, that will hwlp. Watch the jet size they are usually rich

[@KeyesKustoms]

Yes sir your right, it running good at the moment lol fingers crossed 😂

[@KeyesKustoms]

Thank you!!

[@HitokiriRaiden]

Well never knew those yokes wasnt welded and just a plug and a metal cap interesting.

[@KeyesKustoms]

It was new to me also, I just assumed it was solid on the end.

[@HitokiriRaiden]

@@KeyesKustoms Same makes me wonder when i had my old malibu if that was the cause of the leak i never could fix it drove me fits for year till i sold it, definitely something ill remember now.

Hey good show so far ! Any friend of Rat Rod Bob is surely a friend of mine ! You guys definitely need to keep working together ! One question though, where's the oil in the U-jionts coming from ?????

[@KeyesKustoms]

We appreciate it! We believe it was coming from the plug in the yoke, after we fixed it the car has been in my shop for over a week with no drips so our fingers are crossed lol

[@controlchaosgarage8880]

Probably wrong but it looks like a nut is missing on the pitman arm. I can see the nut clearly on steer box side but not the other. I'm probably wrong can see it good. You guys are awesome tho keep the videos coming .

[@KeyesKustoms]

Thanks man, it was on a tight but your right it looks a hard to see.

[@CathySvela]

I fixed a similar problem with just one to two size bigger jets in the carburetor. If you havn't changed jets you can change jets.

[@KeyesKustoms]

That was the next step if the dizzy didn’t fix it lol

[@KeyesKustoms]

Ten four on the jets

[@juanbarturen2726]

Ok you talked me into it. You and Bob make a good team. Hey I have some questions on my project.aka Ol'Beater. Could I ask you?

[@stansmith1911]

im at 14.19... 2 things, the cam on the accelerator pump needs adjusted and or the power valve is to strong or to weak or there is a vacuum port plugged. im at 17.11 that carb is not big enough. With that cam I would run a 700 cfm. So send me the 650 holly and I will fix it for you. 😎🤒😎

[@KeyesKustoms]

Your right, I think we have it dialed in for now. Hopefully lol.

[@dannyplanck6498]

Why are you fixing that leak? Don't you know automatic rustproofing when you see it ? 😊

[@KeyesKustoms]

Rust proofing at its best 🤣

[@wingingittracy8508]

I have a 29 coupe I am building it would be helpful to know what rear springs you put in I had 180 s then 200 lbs it still may be to light . What spring are in your coupe . ?? Thanks

[@KeyesKustoms]

If I’m not mistaken it 150lbs and Bob ordered 180lbs. I will ask him to make sure I’m not telling you wrong.

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

I used 100lb springs while building which felt right until the car was finished then they were to light. I ended up with 180lb springs. Keep in mind the angle the coilovers are mounted on makes a big difference. Straight up and down is stronger than on an angle. More angle = less strength. Notice the upper mounts on this build has adjustable angle.

[@RichieCat4223]

2:26 I don't see residual check valves on the brake lines.

[@RatRodBobBuilds]

And you won't find any ABS sensors either!

[@RichieCat4223]

But your master is below the height of the calipers and wheel cylinders, causing brake fluid to refill the master giving you a less fermer brake pedal. Look into it if you don't believe me.@@RatRodBobBuilds

[@KeyesKustoms]

It will stop on a dime and give you 9 cents back 😂

[@davidgough1161]

msd ready to run? Lock it out and it should be better

Msd will be are next step if this distributor bites the dust.
