"Transmission is 185 - 200lbs" *picks it up and walks with it like it weighs 30 lbs* Derek is a UNIT

C4s aren't bad... but never got one to shift right. The old FMX was rock solid and completely cast iron....and tore so many u-joints off the drive shaft.......... I loved it.

My dad wasn't huge and I seen him pick up a transmission

I seen a man lift a 350 4 bolt an set it on the work table he's name was Dug he worked at Franklin auto parts in the machine shop Redding California at the time he was in his early 50s

Hey Derek! Those rear calipers look just like the fronts off of any f150 truck from like 76 to 96 with the wedge style calipers.I know a guy will get it figured out though. Keep up the awesome work!

Hell yeah! Let’s boost this comment for VGG

I’m a Chevrolet guy, but this truck is so cool. I’ve always dreamed of having an older chevy truck with this style just never have the time to work on a project like this. I will be following this build and can’t wait to see how cool this truck is when finished!!

[@charlesloesch2087]

Your videos make my day with hour personality and great knowledge and work ethics. I am a 76 year old dude, medically retired from 44 years in the creepy world of being a medic and homicide investigator on the civilian side. The heart disease is quickly putting my clock on speed dial, but watching your videos gives me a great deal of needed escape from the realities of the world. You actually DO make a difference to many, many lives out there, Derek! I am greatly impressed with you, your family and your buddies that help you out from time to time. Keep it up and God bless.

I've barely looked under a hood in 15-20 years, but I've binged watching Vice Grip Garage. The humor, the reviving of old forgotten vehicles, the knowledge. Fun.

I love the truck Derek but if it was mine I would've had Chevy power but it's also cool that did make it all ford .

[@bryanbsa8927]

@@logicthought24 Are you forgetting all the cracks and the severe bucher/hack job that was done to it? Frankly I just would have started looking for a donner frame.

[@MidwestFarmToys]

It depends. The reason truck frames are open C channels like this is exactly so they CAN flex and twist without cracking welds off. You actually want that unless you're doing something ultra high HP like drag racing or doing constant hole shots. I agree tho, the notches are concerning. The one behind the cab he showed last video in particular is at the main bending node of the frame, and over time just with normal driving that WILL buckle and needs to be reinforced. I commented to Derek about it last video but who knows if they will fix em

[@TedPierson]

I sub'd to Dave's channel and watched a few of his videos.

[@dogsrlcatsdl4524]

Derek mentioned straight away that someone was grinding... doesn't matter who at this point.... the sparkles caught the leakage and poof - there it is!!

[@dogsrlcatsdl4524]

He also said that they basically dodged a bullet because the cylinder didn't have enough pressurized compressed product in it to actually become a rocket or worse yet explode. Depending on certain factors.

[@DruidB19]

I know It's none of my business but when I see you grinding without a face shield I get flashbacks to the time a disc exploded and sent shrapnel into my face. I was wearing glasses so luckily I still have my eyes because I would have lost them too. It's been over 20 years since and I still have the scars and nerve damage. If not for yourself then do it for your boys and wear a shield. If you get blinded there's no doubt the channel and your income will suffer and you will become a burden on them. Please understand I'm telling you this with a great deal of love for you guys and I don't want you to go through what I did.

[@williammaple8857]

Thank you for the encouragement throughout all of your videos! I have always been scared of doing anything to my Trans Am and then I started watching your videos and they gave me the courage to tear into my car, pull the motor and fix the frame. You're an inspiration!

Worth a like as Derek's wearin' steel capped boots. No point a fella smashin' his feet up if an engine falls on them. On the negatory side, lighnin' weldin without a helmet is a sure way to gettin' a fella arc eye. Hurts like you would not beleive about 8 hours later.
