Finishing our RGN Lowboy Semi-Trailer [EP6]

[@MrKeithJ2]

Sitting in the hospital after my mom was rushed here last night bored out of my mind when rich pops up with a new video... thank you for your hard work sir

[@Joe-hz1nw]

Hope your mom is okay and makes a full recovery

[@roadhammer2380]

Hope everything is well with your mom and she pulls through.

[@joevaagen6170]

Hope and pray it's nothing to serious

[@nbrowser]

Wishing your mom a speedy recovery from whatever is ailing her.

[@Sydthesloth45]

Wishing you the best and a speedy recovery for your mum ❤

[@hanselgretel8563]

This is the true definiton of "working with your own hands". Respect

[@robwigglezz944]

That chicken hopping on the trailer at the end was majestic

[@COM70]

A seminal moment and a tribute to all the incredible work I would say ❤

[@carlswenson5403]

When you load your tank onto the trailer you built and haul it with the truck you built, you are well and truly a man's man. Sir, I salute you

[@DGHD]

Thanks! I was driving a Nissan Leaf around about a year ago and was called a girl, so this redeemed me a bit

[@tgi3197]

Rich, I think I've commented this before, but it needs said again. Thank you for encouraging and motivating us to do better and be better. We all appreciate everything you do.

[@DGHD]

Thanks man!

[@EdisonMotors]

I’m really glad you bought the trailer and tank to the show too

[@georgedreisch2662]

As to a potential future project for off road recovery, y’all oughta explore something like a John Deere 440 cable skidder, maybe doing some modifications to put it into a wrecker configuration. Should be available relatively cheap, in y’all’s neck of the woods.

[@DGHD]

But we have a tank....

[@jacob.s3619]

A folding gooseneck front load trailer is so much less complicated and practical then these types, my god i feel for you Rich

[@DGHD]

If I was to use this everyday, I would have spent the extra $50 000, but for me who uses it on average 1-2x a week. This is still the better option

[@KrasYnek]

17:28 - I wish you luck! Always.

[@madflyer1093]

Man, Fontaine’s neck setup is waaaay better than any other trailer I’ve seen.

[@theglitch99]

They have simplified the separating of the neck process for sure!

[@RogerM88]

Correction Rich. It's not a one man show, don't forget the Inspector Chicken in the background.

[@bobbob-fg5wy]

For locking pins, you can use a spring brake can and rods-levers. Spring/park is locked, charged is unlocked.

[@jarvisautofabrication284]

We have that same trailer as a 50 ton and to support the neck from the deck there is a thick piece of flat stock roughly 15” long with a hole at each end. It goes in the very middle of the neck at the rear under the swinging feet pinned and down to the lowboy deck pinned in place. So after you raise the deck up with the neck brace in place, it will remain attached to the deck and you can unhook the tractor from it. Nicely done on the truck and trailer. Man does she looooook beautiful

[@seaforb13]

Really nice. Don’t see low boys like that Australia very often.(very rarely). It’s cool, it’s old school and it’s on the road. Pat on the back bro. Well done.

[@milescarter7803]

It's great to see the backstory. I saw the Edison truck tow your tank, but I didn't know the trailer barely made it! I'm gonna be following your hybrid pickup build.

[@paulhoughton654]

Glad to see you put a cover on the bronco.

[@barnhouseinc]

I hate how PUMPED I am after watching Deboss's on a Sunday evening after working on my car all weekend! 😅

[@gregweber8951]

Aaron! The van video and burn out is coming!

[@wobblysauce]

Watching it connect for the first time was a great sight.

[@lordcaptainvonthrust3rd]

Loving that working area A place for everything and everything in the same place 😂😂😂😂😂😂 That's a beautiful rig Rich and you should be very proud

[@averyw.3939]

That trailer looks great behind the K100, the deck boards being stained really ties it all together, but seeing how that neck operates makes me glad to have an Aspen. Better than a mechanical neck though.

[@TheChedberg]

Perfect sat night…. Deboss to finish the day!

[@Woodie-xq1ew]

If you are thinking about buying containers to store your stuff. You can get a temporary structure that is supposed to be mounted in between 2 containers and gives you a decently tall, covered work area outside for the things that still don’t fit in the shop

[@DGHD]

I bought some cheap trusses and will frame up a little roof with Steel. With the trees there, plastic wouldn't last too long, and the steel dome structures are about $25/square foot.

[@om617yota8]

Rich has a background in construction, putting a truss roof on some containers is well within his wheelhouse.

[@carlcarlamos9055]

The gothic arches that boat enthusiasts use work on containers, give good height, and will accept various roofing applications, and your sawmill guy can supply the wood. Take care.

[@stevehaken]

New Shop sounds REALLY good.

[@hunterprice3672]

Beautiful Truck and Trailer. Great job .

[@hanswijnia]

One beautiful setup you've made there 💪💪. Regards from the Netherlands

[@puirYorick]

Everything is better with free-range chickens roaming around in the background.🐔👍🏼

[@nickwallace9955]

Rich that whole set up turned out SICK AF!

[@jonathensackman2297]

Rich...your talking about sea cans! I've seen so.e.pretty cool ideas, if you have the room. Basically you can stack em up, build an enclosure between them, pur some rafters and roof on it and a week you can have a nice roomy enclosure, 6 sea cans worth of storage plus all the room in the middle, and the best part is, they are usually rodent tight....

[@richard3141592638]

Topsy! Really sorry I missed the show (London) - Topsy pulled 100k! Great job Rich.

[@josephgriffiths7656]

T-shirt with the sherminator on the low-boy with the chicken inspecting it. 😁

[@danielburgin1060]

Your content is one of the best on KZbin well done

[@DGHD]

Thank you! We all work hard over here, thanks for noticing

[@danielburgin1060]

@@DGHD your hard work is noticed here pal awesome content keep up the good and hard work and a big thank you

[@Modlendingen]

It came along pretty nice! :) You can never have a too big shop, that's unheard off!

[@buboka1]

You are a talented fitter who likes to explain what are up to. I like to watch know-how.

[@ianriddell5635]

'We got the chickens approval, we got the MTO approval...' I was dyyying at that!!

[@lolMyke]

Was great seeing all this stuff at the open house

[@Tr3vor007]

It’s good to see a fellow Ontarian doing the dang thing! Love the truck/semi content. It’s a welcomed change of pace from the regular KZbin car content.

[@mohamedfaiqhamid5830]

I just watched the cab over and trailer build Absolutely loved it I bought a cabover about 7 months ago( 98% of all trucks in my country is cab overs ) I got a 2007 internal cummins isx 475 With a 18 speed box Makes me wanna do a complete rebuild like this

[@SV2LLJ]

It's a hell of a work there Rich...BUT...Beautifully done!! What an outcome !! Congrats Rich !! Can't wait for the next videos...😎😎

[@DGHD]

Thank you!

[@marcomcdowell8861]

Beautiful truck.

[@wbball15]

Rich, this project has been fun to follow. I've been a K100 fan since I was about 5 years old in 1983. A large majority of my sketches and doodles were of KW transport trucks. Thanks for stoking the memories.

[@WarpedHorizon]

Rich if you're looking for a Florida vacation Taylor Ray has a really awesome Bus/RV/Car Hauler that needs love, would be a perfect collaboration.

[@MechanicalMafioso]

Look at it, just look at it!! 🧐

[@Timoastra]

I was never quite sure about the color combination on the Kenworth before, but now after seeing it with the lowboy I am convinced. It looked pretty dope with the tank on top.

[@davveberg]

Great great work Rich! ❤️ Greetings from Sweden

[@Eremon1]

Rich, you did a hell of a job on the Kenworth and its new lowboy. Keep saving these old machines. Cheers.

[@stevenmcgregor2219]

Your going to need some nice strobes lights on.that kenworth to make it a truck Canadian float truck eh i suggest stainless roof brakets and old sckool rotating flashers

[@mickfbr]

Absolutely fantastic mate!

[@KnightsWithoutATable]

3 completed projects! Well, first stage of completion, but I am pretty sure the Kenworth is 90% done.

[@DGHD]

The interior is getting done right now at Day Cab

[@Skusty]

Looking great, new paint and wood does a lot! You could get some rubber mats for the trailer to get traction and protect the deck, I've heard people use old transport belts or retreads for tires.

[@Borgschulze]

Stop teasing me with the Mercedes S124 in the background, I want it!

[@Vaino_Hotti]

Isn't it an older build? Like years ago?

[@DGHD]

It was an older build, that had way too many little gremlins living in it so I bought it back. LS7 Turbo swap.

[@jaykanngiesser3454]

Such a cool setup. That’s was a HUGE project! Kudos to V&R as well. You guys all rock!

[@jtgrec3179]

Nice setup

[@Dagrond]

I don't know what I'm doing, but I am gonna start. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@stangiles2001]

Putting the horse before the cart

[@thisisourchannel3589]

totally sick

[@mike8149]

Thank you for the hours of entertainment

[@KenHackathorn-m2v]

I like the heck out of that K-100 that truck is slick awesome job

[@michaelrussell4254]

Can’t get my head around your trailers in the US come over to the UK and Europe and see how we move oversized loads , so much simpler

[@oregonfordguy9812]

differant rules.

[@martialme84]

Love the channel. Especially the heavy duty equipment.

[@philstewart9891]

Absolutely brilliant truck.

[@MastaT_150]

That turned out awesome! What an accomplishment, you should really be proud of yourself!

[@Naviss]

Huge congrats! Such a beautiful setup!!! Hope to see more with both the K100 and lowboy.

[@djpmatchbox]

I would really invest in a bigger shop. You deserve it.

[@iain3411]

Beautiful rig and trailer.

[@ja-bv3lq]

Beautiful rig, Rich!!!

[@FL.AirBoater]

Enjoy your videos from central Florida!!!

[@swjd94]

I like that you didnt go with the typical black on your frame and trailer

[@coltonkruse2313]

I was worried about your light bar on the back of the truck but it looks like it cleared fine! I was worried it might catch the low boy. This set up looks amazing. Well done.

[@jackpinesavagerepair1918]

Use push pull cables to pull inside pins. Be easier then hydraulic and make it more automated

[@JustinF89]

We have one of them at the shop. I like pulling the fontaine over the witzco.

[@matthewlacelle9422]

Excellent work!!! Love watching your videos!

[@shaunsmith2545]

Keep up the good work rich. I love what you are doing

[@allensandven0]

Enough of the guilt trips … I’m going outside just as soon as I finish watching your video series 😂👍

[@DGHD]

attaboy!

[@stephenbrown571]

You’re missing a lock bar that goes. From the neck to the deck that holds the. Neck up when disconnected from the tractor.

[@SKORNADO]

Absolutely phenomenal

[@jamesdetrick6035]

Once again, awesome video. Great series.

[@GeorgeBarrett-ny1wi]

Awesome outfit👍👏👏👏

[@ianwebb4286]

Awesome video

[@Crack84baby]

That looks so good. Amazing work.

[@WoodyDowler]

Awesome news for your drive😅😊enjoy you doing what you love doing

[@abbybonilla4511]

Dude you're gonna need a hangar big enough to house a C-17 or C5 cargo plane.

[@AllThingsBoost]

That's a winning rig right there, holy cow!

[@flvince]

WOW, super nice rig!!!!

[@EveryTongue]

Wow, great work man. I was watching the Edison video first and I was thinking you bought that trailer from the store.

[@eppot1]

nice and good work.. like always !!!!🙂

[@carsonwashburn1]

“She probably doesn’t see this video anyways.” I feel that 😂

[@papatomsthoughts]

Love this. Great rebuild

[@DunkDrives]

Love this build and the work you put into it! It all looks incredible!

[@clevelandmatheson983]

Thanks Rich , your channels are awesome and I look forward to every video, I don’t know how you manage to do what you do but I am a huge fan.

[@mattgraham1983]

😂😂😂😂 I was thinking when you started working on the low-boy that you need a bigger shop 😂😂😂

[@Grasshopper.80]

Masterpiece. ❤

[@metalmetz]

This is beautiful, Rich! Great job. I can't wait to see what you do with this combo!

[@earlycuyler8719]

You’re going to hate full fenders on your truck if you use this trailer a lot. I’ve bumped mine a couple times. My trailer is similar to yours and it’s a pain to hook up sometimes

[@Chilly383]

So awesome Great build

[@Adam_Poirier]

What do you mean that you're a one-man show?? There was a chicken right behind you right when you said that... give that thing a paintbrush, and let it work!

[@damienbeliaiev3978]

Some good work mate👌

[@rossnolan2883]

Super 😊

[@elesjuan]

Here is Rich absolutely killing it again. Man I can't even tell you just how beautiful 😍that kwhopper and lowboy are together. You've been knocking it out of the park as always, man. Every video of yours I watch always puts me into a weird moment of self-reflection about working on my own dang projects that I seem to start and inevitably put off for months and sometimes years. Keep it up, sir!

[@baggedr32mk5]

That rig and lowboy set up looks fantastic,our trucks here in scotland look so boring compared to American Rigs 👍🏻
