As far as the paint, all you gotta do is get one drop of sweat in it and it will be fish eye city. Easy mistake to do. Glad you got it finished with new product.

[@anth956]

Hey Tim YOU are setting the bar high for the rest of the daddy’s out here. I wished that rest of the world would take the time with their kids like you doing. Making him earn money and when he’s grown he will appreciate every single minute of. Hell of a job brother.

[@kevink4914]

Steve is a great employee 💯 I know the amount of time it takes to polish aluminum. It’s a lot of work and I mean it will give you a arm workout. He definitely deserves anything he needs to make that truck shine.

Tim I also recommend getting the H&S Motorsports upper and lower fuel filter kits for the 6.7 I just put them on my 2020 it changes both fuel filters to spin on filters, much better than the $100 plastic filters from ford. And keep doing what your doing by teaching Braxton and all your kids the way to do things the right way, We need more parents like you and your Wife.

[@6582rg]

Agree. Just put the H&S filter kit on my 21 6.7 and I’m really happy with it. Very well made. Also installed an S&B Cold Air Intake.

No problem brax glad We could help you with a bumper, keep up the hard work!👍🏻

[@tracymankey9314]

Your dad is a amazing mechanic

[@antwineyoutheman2232]

Man Tim I got to tell you your family is amazing and the people that work for you are amazing but your son is in a league of his own he's showing young people that hard work still pays off and people that live in other parts of the United States besides the South you have to work two to three times harder in the south then a lot of people that live in other states but the Gentry and son KZbin show remind me of Hank Williams Jr song country folks can survive I'm from Mississippi so you know I know

[@kirktitgen7453]

Polish rims and new reflective tape and lights on the trailer ….will be killer….love the FLD and argosy upgrades too 👊☝️💪😆

[@jeffmaloney3181]

Brax, the truck is looking good can't wait to see your new operator and see how it all works out for you.

[@904C5ZOSIX]

I'd say Brax has more since than most other truckers on the road! He will definitely be well established in the trucking community before he's 18. Keep up the great work Brax! And Tim, your kinda dad kids need these days. Love your channel sir. Total RESPECT to you and your family and your crew!!

[@StortWeldingCoLLC]

BRAX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DITTO,,

[@luisgarcia2204]

Your the best dad, but leave battery's to the big boys. I drove that tandem dump trucks my whole life and worked on them. My boss always made sure that I would take scrap rubber tubes from the tires cut out a big square and cover the whole battery in case something vibrate or whatever so nothing would ever spark on it. Take care keep up the good work.

[@tommyhayworth887]

Tim, you need the hay feeder shed I build for our beef cows. The shed is 7 feet wide the roof is15 feet wide so the cows can be under the roof when they eat. It will hold 4 4x4 round bales which makes it less of a hassle to feed in the winter months.

[@truckpilotnate2972]

You’re making me want to get my old ‘96 FLD going again.

God bless you and your family and merry Christmas. Love what you do . I have been driven 21 years in February bye the way I love that you are teaching your son how to make a dollar there ain’t many dads like that and Braxton did a great job painting the bumper.

[@georgesmith5045]

Hey Tim, when you're spraying start on the inside and work out to the outside then you don't get the paint on you when you lean over, love the videos bud merry Christmas.

[@BigFuzzyGaming]

Are you going to paint the underside of the trailer? It needs a few good coats of the white stuff before the black. Dont forget to do the underside, or the top is Pointless if you dont. Looking good. Keep up the good work.

[@northcountry9240]

Mr Tim some grain for the critters in the winter is good But you do need to be careful about how much you give them. To hot can be a bad thing for them. Safe travels to ya 🇺🇲

[@danwilliams8771]

Cracked me up ! You see free sign and you leave the corn !!!!!!😂😂😂😂

Hey buddy I was just watching this video and I broke down and started crying about working with my dad and my daughter, my dad went in for knee surgery and had a massive heart attack and died my daughter got married moved away just left me sad but don't ever take it for granted enjoy the videos keep up the good work buddy love you

[@rongreen5099]

You earned it Brax! That rig is going to look awesome with a new bumper

[@jakobbraun2679]

Man that visor would look good painted black with that bumper

[@lancemcswain214]

Had my first in the wild sighting of a Gentry & Sons truck today between Little Rock and Memphis. Saw the boats and took a quick glance and saw the sticker. They were west bound and down so it was a quick look since I was headed to Memphis. Hope that driver has a good trip!!

[@ericgriffin397]

Great job y'all, I envy you in what you get to do with your kids and I'm so happy for y'all!! I know your a happy dad and I hope nothing but the best for y'all!! Be safe and God Bless y'all...

It's funny how when you tell him to say somthing he gets shy. But he we'll talk into all day when you guys are just filling. You raised a good old boy. 💪🏻💪🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Braxton is a cool lil kid! 💯

[@jessejames4637]

Love ur videos. Brings back good memories of when i was a kid and my dad was still alive. He was a fuel injection technician and i followed in his footsteps until he passed at 49 years old. Miss the diesel truck life and i get to live a little by watching ur videos.

[@wirenut003]

Brax that is a nice-looking rig you got, you do not see many of them on the road, hope you keep it looking as good as it does. The truck is going to look really cool with the new bumper on the front can't wait to see all together keep up the good work Brax and learn from your Pops all you can.

[@jaredspear8140]

Hey Tim. I put that disaster prevention kit on the last 6.7 Powerstroke I had among others things. Purchased mine from SPE because their kit didn’t require any cutting. It did save me because I lost my high pressure pump. Replaced the pump for $1200 and didn’t have to spend $15k on an entire fuel system.

[@johnspratt4421]

Not being sarcastic but shouldn't that be covered by the factory warranty if new just curious if you know

[@jaredspear8140]

@@johnspratt4421 that’s a good question and I understand. I’ve been told it is and been told it is not. The source saying it’s covered under the power train warranty tends to stretch the truth. Biggest part is being without the truck for weeks while they hunt down parts even if it is covered. And the fact is Tim will rack up 100,000 plus on this in a short amount of time (sad you have to preface anything with “not being sarcastic” because of peoples feelings these days, lol). Good question though, honestly have not heard it from the dealers mouth

[@johnspratt4421]

@@jaredspear8140 yeah that makes since I prefer trucks wo def or that has exhaust issues removed but being under that warranty is a nice blanket for my intended use and if a repair like that is not covered then why not have it done guess I will need to research it more lol.

[@BloodSweatandGearsGA]

Tim, I gotta tell ya this video was like watchin’ paint dry… 😂😂😂 Just kiddin brother! Great video as always man. Braxton is getting a great start on life growing up with the training he’s getting from you. Keep up the hard work!

[@jaredspear8140]

@@johnspratt4421 honestly is a toss up. I deleted and did disaster prevention kit along with FASS fuel system and 65 gal Titan fuel tank. It’s was a pain. But nice. Two months later high pressure fuel pump went down. Money well spent. Luckily a good friend owns a ford diesel shop so we replaced quickly and then sold the truck! Good trucks but this CP4’s are ridiculous. Had one starting to go bad at 34k on a Ram 2500 Cummins. Again sold it to not mess with headaches!

[@joshuabrown2543]

If you can get a gravity grain wagon Maybe you can get some cracked corn from a Co-Op or from a local farmer that has a feed grinder. And you can get some other ingredients to mix into it but youou'd have a big feed bin where you wouldn't have to constantly go out and get a pallet of food. Usually you can find them with tarps on top or you can put one over the top . But yeah when you get your barn going you can get these, like small feed silos or bins that are gravity fed or whatever.

[@gregandkatecox2612]

I hope you have luck with that argossy. Here in Australia they are only good for boat anchors. I had the misfortune of driving one, and mind you it was brand new. Well over the years I drove it everything that could crack and break in the cab did, constant breakdowns with the dd15 motor and countless replacements of electric window components. Nothing like driving about 150km/h of a 3000km trip to have the window stuck half down. (Adelaide to Perth). No one has theses parts until you reach Perth. The floor around the gear stick actually cracked open. You can imagine the heat coming through when the horton kicks in when its 113 degrees outside towing a roadtrain. Best of luck. I could go on on with the breakdowns.

You guys should put 8 inch Straight pipe custom octagon stacks on the FLD, We custom built octagon stacks for are international tow truck. It looks and sounds really good

[@jkmcp45]

Tim here’s another YOU NEED TO but take and look into Rust Bullet for painting your trailers it’s a two component paint , it’s a serious paint that is flexible but it’s hard and we go about every 4-5 years before we relipstick and since we started using Rust Bullet well the three drop decks that were our first with Rust Bullet are just starting to show rust and it’s just over 9 years The first coat is 3 to 4 applications of a gray or silver or silver gray base then you spray your top coat they have a Black and white and the white is tin table to be whatever color it’s a little time consuming to put the paint down the EXACT way in the directions but it’s worth it in my opinion cause we run heavy equipment all through New England and the ice preventative is corrosive I mean it eats some iron try it I’m telling ya Be Safe, Big Jon

[@brianmatthews4820]

Hi l reckon braxston could go on a trip and if the truck brock down he could fix it and be on his way keep it up braxston

[@rodferguson5160]

One thing to keep in mind. It appears that you guys are just wire wheeling the rust off the metal or grinding it. If you do not use a rust converter under your paint it’s just going to rust again keep in mind that metal begins to rest the day it’s manufactured. Plus you put something in there to totally encapsulate it you’re going to have problems. Once it has rusted rust will start again easily so you need to encapsulate it with rust converter. I would also suggest that you put a coat of epoxy primer has your first coat of the defense. And then give it a light scuffing then apply your high build urethane primer. Polyurethane paint is beautiful on cars and durable. But on your trailers, I would recommend using the POR 15 paint because when it dries it is rockhard and durable. That’s what it was designed for but it will work well on your frames for both your trucks and your trailers, but stay to the polyurethane for the truck cabs and fenders. I’ve painted many cars over the years. I started painting back when we used to use straight enamel and it took several days to dry before you could sanded or do anything to it. Urethane paint has been my favorite for years.

[@jackhudson2654]

keep the great videos coming Tim God bless you and your family and happy holidays to all of you and don't be too hard on Braxton you and me were both young ones and we were the best of children I'm assured we never got in any trouble

[@rodferguson5160]

Have you tried Eastwood companies POR 15 paint and rust converter. With the rust converter your knock off the crusty bits but don’t grind it to bare metal. Coat it with the rust converter. Any places that are not rusty do not coat. Let that dry then coat the whole frame rail with POR 15 paint it is some of the toughest nastiest Paint ever for framework underneath cars etc. give it a try on one of your trailers and compare it against the rest and see how long it lasts

[@ericgregory3005]

Next time you paint that corrogated bottom tape you some cardboard under it. Its amazing how much paint it keeps and helps with coverage. Also watch out for snakes laid up in that hay.

You shouldn't feed cow corn unless it's grounded up . If it looks like a half cornal , it's too big . They can't digest it and a good possibility it will cause them to blot . I've worked on a farm for years...

[@donhaas8547]

Tim, I know that Ford is a work truck but you really need a bed liner. plastic of spray in.

[@timothymilam732]

So now flip it up with the crane, and at least 4 coats of primer on the under sides of the trailer, and pull bed off of tractor and prime it and the back frame of tractor itself if you gonna do it right

Add some new reflective tape and a bunch of light's along the sides of the Argasy and the trailer. Matching wheels. Braxton is definitely a great young man. I only wish I could have done the stuff he does when I was his age. 50 years ago.

Can’t wait to see the K100 build I love those cabover

[@carlmccoy5146]

I agree on the brakes failing during parade. Sad but not criminal. And lots of gm vehicles early 2000s brakes are same. At hiway speed wheel speed sensors. Only need to see reluctor ring movement. At low speed they need to see every revolution. Rust build up under sensors. To much gap occurs. They will fail at low speeds. Causing abs to fail.

[@stradguy93]

Use Summit Racings Chassis Shield paint, I’ve had good luck with it.

Talk to your local feed mill and they can give you best advice I worked for commodity blenders feed mill and they have 3 feed mills 1 home in west Salem ohio 2 in Michigan and 3rd in Indiana we feed a dairy farm in Tennessee can't remember name and one in pecan in Georgia and 2 for same farm in NC

Tim you could do with lifting that boat tralior with the crane and get underneath that's were the weather hits most but looks nice now another good video.

[@iR_STONA]

@2:48 you did ruin it tim i said it in the last video and say it again... you're supposed to sand the surface to a feathers edge and clean the metal with lacquer thinners before you primer any metal tim otherwise you're wasting your time painting the surface at all because the rust will continue to eat the metal from under the paint, but oh well each to their own power to you brother \!!!/

[@timothybates9999]

Great job on all your projects One thing I noticed though that alarmed me When Braxton was pouring the wax and grease remover he was holding it really close to his face If it had splashed even a little it could have easily went into his eyes Safety glasses as agravating as they are would have been advised Not trying to be an Osha A Hole but I'd hate to see him get hurt

[@charlesroer972]

Truck definitely needs stacks and a little fiberglass work around headlights otherwise seems solid . Sealing the trailer metal before the corrosion is a smart step . Easier to clean and keep clean . Are u using Ameron paint or PPG Amerloc epoxy paint . That stuff is expensive but almost bulletproof . We had mine ore trucks painted with it yrs ago . Was like armor plate as a paint

[@jasonjaros1385]

For trailers like that i like to use rustoleum thinned a lil bit and put harder in it. Sticks to anything and lasts
