[@wes11bravo]

Love this Cornbinder, Zane! Lots of potential and options are wide open. All that space! As long as the basic structure is sound, you can go with a more updated engine and drivetrain. Or just keep her original. Either way, I'm looking forward to seeing more of this beast!

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Thank you Wes! 😀 I truly appreciate the kind words my friend. Its definitely a neat old binder 🙂👍 take care and be safe

[@somerandomguy3868]

There's hope for the ol girl yet, if you pull the drive shaft you're gonna want to put something in there to stop the transmission oil from spilling out, do you know that the clutch is releasing? or cross that bridge when you come to it

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Thanks for the comment and suggestion James 🙂👍 both of the flanges are bolted on. I believe the clutch is free 👍 hopefully it will move under it's own power. Thanks for watching and take care

[@ydocproductions5593]

After the video’s over I’m gonna head down to my local tractor supply and get me one of those battery tow downs🤣😂! Ripping off that headliner I can get a good look at how bad the roof is (looks like Swiss cheese LOL), and watching you rip out that seat was hilarious🤣! That engine looked pretty rough but it was awesome to hear it run. Just goes to show these older engines were built to last. Great video Zane I really enjoyed it!👍😃

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Lol! 😂 Swiss cheese indeed Cody! Had to remove the headliner *slowly* ....kept checking for spiders 😂🥺. Thanks for tuning in. Its always much appreciated my friend 🙂❤

[@WesleyJohnsonMI]

Looks like your projects are doing better than mine! 😂 hopefully some parts show up for my F600 4x4 this week. I'd like to get it mobile again before snow flies!

I know where a later model IH is (maybe mid 70's) but have never stopped to see if it could be bought. It is 4X4 too. I think it has a V8 in it. Going to take a lot of work but that is going to be a neat old truck...

That engine sounds really good. From the cans of brake fluid in the cab, I'm guessing the truck might have had a brake issue when it was still in use...

[@socialghost4400]

The way this truck has been repaired over the years, tells me it has spend a lot of its working life in very remote locations where parts were not easy to come by. Just out of curiosity where do you source parts for these old trucks? ..I can imagine them being difficult to find parts for

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

I would imagine you're 100% correct on that! I'm sure its had a rough life. So far the parts have been fairly easy to get 🙂👍 just a lot of research and some guessing. Thanks for the view and comment. Take care 👍

[@oldcroneysgarage9739]

The rear end in my dad's dodge dually is making a growling sound at lower speeds and it vibrates at high speeds. It's a Dana 80 with 3.55 gears. We are thinking the pinion bearings are going out and the ring and pinion are shot. So it probably needs the rear end rebuilt or has to have a new rear end put under it. Do you think the rear axle from a 2003 chevy 3500 work under a 2000 dodge ram 3500?

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

I'm not sure, it may work 🤔

[@FordMan-lf8ns]

depends on spring spacing. The mounts might have to be moved.

[@WesleyJohnsonMI]

Are you sure it's a Dana 80 & not an AAM rear axle? Just rebuild what you have. You'll save yourself a headache down the road.

[@FordMan-lf8ns]

also the ujoints could be different size.

[@oldcroneysgarage9739]

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Oh I'm not sure buddy 🤔 I've never had a quad

[@justinhobart8747]

Good video! 🤔 all those straps and they use twine for a battery tie-down??? You can still get Big Red in a can, LOL and I understand what you're getting at about a 350 in S10... But you do realize it's no harder to get the spark plugs out of a 4.3 that came Factory in the S10, right? As a 4.3 is just a 350 with the front cylinders cut off... So it's not pushing the engine back any further is just pulling it outward, toward the radiator. Otherwise it's the exact same blocked just two front cylinders cut off.

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

I didn't think of that! 😂 so much for the straps lol. Thats true about the 4.3 🙂👍 thanks for the view and kind comment Justin. I truly appreciate that my friend 👍
