Definitely happy you have two channels now! I can never get enough of your videos!!!!! Keep them coming!

[@lincolnhaines6887]

The running commentary is hilarious....great job!

[@Kleeman1]

Appreciate it!

[@NoPlanProjects]

My '07 with 360K has had that tick at idle for the last 35K that I've had it. I figure when she blows I'll know exactly what it is. Thanks for bringing these videos to YT Mike. Those of us that don't do other social medias appreciate it.

[@Kleeman1]

Exactly! Lol

[@michaelmcclure8673]

Captain Kleeman, that's a clean ride. Looks a lot better than the Subaru. 😅😅😅😅

[@Kleeman1]

Yeah it does!

[@americanpatriot2.06]

YEP! Now that I've been caught up on the main channel, I'm binge watching this one! One down, 25 more to go. I'm pretty sure I'll have them all watched before I got to bed tonight. That boat trailer would've been nice for your homestead propane welder and other supplies!

[@nelsonannett5427]

now that im a subby now I need to watch all the vids now. that will keep me bizy. cheers captain.

[@Kleeman1]

Grab a snack!

[@alexosborne5629]

Ah, soft gravel 😂 also can be used for a back massage 🤦‍♂️ Good use of the shade tree shop, can't beat that design 😂

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

And, to think… some folks pay extra for a good back massage!

[@robertcass7723]

Soft gravel…main reason I watch The Captain!

[@Kleeman1]

💪

[@Grandpa-Chris]

Just found your new channel Mike, clicked the magic button and enjoyed the video, thanks for sharing. @Grandpa-Chris from London

[@Kleeman1]

💪

[@philliptennis3537]

For a '06 it's in very great shape! Someone took great care of that truck. Hope it lasts ya a long time

[@Kleeman1]

Definitely

[@jerryoxley9556]

Hi Mike, Good job you had them Crocs in “Grip,n Drag” mode!! Jerry UK

[@Kleeman1]

Thanks Jerry!

[@jcf107]

I spent much of my younger years on a "cardboard creeper" in our driveway and the gravel garage floor before we poured a concrete floor.

[@Kleeman1]

How nice was it when you got the concrete? I hope to be there some day.

[@Richard-C]

great video Mike, your just as pleasant to watch on this channel as you are on the Captain channel, love your videos 👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@Kleeman1]

Thanks!

[@Colton1066]

Nothing like being a shade tree mechanic on gravel. Thanks for sharing

[@kaoskrew8577]

Facebook, KZbin - loving it all. Good luck with this one too 👍

[@timharris4874]

I just found this new channel and glad your doing. Thanks Captain!

[@Kleeman1]

Appreciate the support

[@davidroberts3692]

Hey cap, make some ramps out of 2x10s. Just step them up screw ‘em together and they work great! No worries of them collapsing and you could drive a D6 on em and they’d take it.

[@hollandduck79]

Hello from the Netherlands Kleeman . I am now also subscribed to this 2nd KZbin channel of yours thanks for the video Mike. Sincerely Hollandduck

[@NathanCEnyart]

Hey Bud, congrats on the new channel. Love the stump puller.

[@Kleeman1]

Thanks!

[@jackgreen412]

I heard about a fella that used to treat his dog's mange with used motor oil. Don't worry about your skin as his dog survived ok.

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@ronfrance4041]

Our dog is a rescue dog. He was taken from his last owners as someone reported them treating his “mange” with motor oil. He was still itching when we got him and a farm animal vet recommended some vitamin supplement. He stopped itching within 2 days

[@gdismine01]

Mike take the first quart container you put in the engine and cut the bottom off , instant filler for the rest.

[@wildtimbrown]

A Cone Shaped object. With maybe a big hole on one end a small one on the other? Hmmm That might work for efficient movement of petroleum products!

[@georgeenriquez612]

I have a 04 2500 6.0 and they all tick. Don’t worry about it. I’ve seen a lot of those LS motors still ticking at 300 to 400k miles

[@Kleeman1]

Definitely common for the 6.0 and 5.3

[@allensharlow7763]

Good that take care of stuff, great job Mike

[@1231skip]

Every 6.0 that I have owned has had exhaust manifold bolts that break, so watch out for that too. I’ve had it happen on an 01, 06, and my current 09.

[@stevengunter2843]

Looks like a pretty good truck!!

[@Kleeman1]

💪

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Ticking like a Timex! Cap’n, ya got a winner.

[@jccorder1]

I'm not a big fan of soft gravel myself. I have a used rubber truck bed mat and just upgraded to a $49 horse stall mat from Rural King

[@Kleeman1]

Good idea

[@rhondasweeney7271]

Maintenance is number one!😊

[@kenmazer9481]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@4051a]

Nice truck for the money.

[@bluegrallis]

@ 3:30 I'm LOL 🤣 I have a time or 2 made a cone shaped object, with a hole in the bottom of it.

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@johnschmidt1988]

The exhaust manifold bolt on the back of the driver's side always breaks there is a kit you can buy to fix it. From your local auto parts store.

[@Kleeman1]

Dorman makes it, mine aren't broken yet though fingers crossed

[@edsecorr7812]

Looking great love your videos thank you

[@chrishelms1967]

I always imagine a neighbor just watching you walking around mumbling to yourself ( not knowing about the camera) 😂😂😂😂

[@mikelskelley]

That appeals to my sense of humour 😂😂😂

[@Kleeman1]

🤣🤣

[@Crewsy]

I’m kind of disappointed that you’re laying in gravel. I mean, you are the patent holder for the plastic sliding creeper that most people think is a kids snow sled.

[@grilnam9945]

When did I miss you mentioning the new channel? 😢

[@Kleeman1]

Just a couple days ago. You caught it just in time!

[@craigsowers8456]

Great Truck ... wish I had it !!! Would be perfect for picking up some "Goats" ... hint, hint.

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@edkulk2777]

Not sure if you knew it or not.... but from that American flag sticker on the oil pan... it has a Jasper rebuilt engine in it. Considering where you're from, that shouldn't be surprising at all.

[@Kleeman1]

Interesting. I'll have to look into that a little further. Wouldn't be mad about it

[@greghurrell9694]

if you don`t have a funnel cut the bottom out of a water bottle and remove cap that makes a funnel

[@Kleeman1]

Not worried about it

[@kylejones2075]

More maintenance that needed to be done good job thanks for sharing

[@Kleeman1]

Appreciate ya watching

[@tugboat2739]

Howdy Captain

[@jimdaly5077]

Quick fire Captain. 👍🐝🌞

[@smudger797]

🤠

[@rocksy71]

Hi Mike (captain) where the heck do you get soft gravel from? I need some of that LOL 😂

[@Kleeman1]

Special order 🤣

[@jeff1994-b3b]

oh boy

[@Jacks_Mehoff]

Weird noise? The Driver?

[@CMDSR]

Quick-ie Lube Kleeman style.

[@raymondgochenour8725]

Nice

[@jeff1994-b3b]

can we call a captin

[@terryrogers1025]

Maintenance? Ah, who needs maintenance, they run forever don’t they? You’re going to scare that poor truck if you do maintenance on it!!!!!😮😂

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@nightstorm9128]

Says he hates the fact that they don't put the oil quantity on the oil cap,then doesn't bother to say what the actual oil quantity was...I hate that.

[@Kleeman1]

It's not a how to channel. If you can't check your manual for quantities, you probably shouldn't be changing your own oil 👍

[@jpasc611]

100% exhaust manifold leak .

[@MitchGaar]

Manifold are a bitch too. Dont even tackle it! Pay to have it done! Hope it isnt the Stupid Valve auto shutdown feature! I cant believe GM did that to such an awesome engine! I'll bet its your manifold bolts need replaced!Just watch out, the break when removing!

[@Kleeman1]

Nah, I'll do it myself lol

[@MitchGaar]

@@Kleeman1 the bad thing about that, is to replace lifters on that engine you have to pull heads! The manifolds are bad because of cast manifold mounted on aluminum heads! Real easy to mess up the holes in head when putting Heilcoil in them be careful!

[@jeff1994-b3b]

lol all day

[@jeff1994-b3b]

what a mess lol
