How I Lowered My 1968 Dodge D100 Sweptline Shortbed // 440 + 4-Speed // Floyds Mayhem Garage Ep.1

[@kastrocash8512]

Love the truck! I own a 65! Also I live in mile high!!!!!!!

[@beardedscrapper538]

The way u did that bed floor is pretty slick.

[@georgewalker4481]

Yep that's one bad ass truck burning out on the concrete

[@944tim]

in 1975 one of my coworkers drove one similar to yours, it was Plum Purple. I asked he said 'I went to the dealer and ordered the truck and when they got to color, I said I want something different' Probably the only Plum Crazy sweptside Dodge ever built.

Hell ya man starting a youtube channel good for you floyd!!!!

Hola saludos desde chile

[@HemiOrange]

Thats a sweet truck dude! Very nice!

[@ScottsSpeedShop]

Lot of work and a ton of passion, looks awesome brother

[@MortskeRepair]

I called you out on my latest video as part of the burnout challenge! So get after it my boy!! Lets see some sweptline smoke!! Good luck!

[@MortskeRepair]

And congrats on getting 1,000 subs!!!! Hell yeah Floyd!!

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

thanks man!!!😁 exciting to be at 1k. and ill try not to disappoint! I think I'll have some fun with this!

[@herbferguson]

That's cool. A lot of guys were swapping the 72 up D100 front frame clip to the 61-71 frame, then getting dropped spindles, etc. Great work!

[@944tim]

very well done truck. I have always liked that style body.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

thank you!!!😊 I love this body style myself, I really love how you just dont really see them. it's one of a kind at a car show!

[@spursfansince87]

Nice. I lowered my ‘91 dodge ramcharger but not this way because of course mine is an suv but I love these too.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

yeah!!!😁 the frame under my truck is almost identical to the one der the ramcharger since I used a 1978 frame. 72 to 93 were pretty much the same!

[@harveycasey1900]

I have a 69 with a 383 under the hood & swapping it out with a 440. I hope someday it'll look as good as yours👍🏾👍🏾

[@shaftmasterlathes]

That's a really great Garage.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

thank you!!!

[@donchristie420]

You clear out the mosquitoes in the garage the same way I do- smoke em out👍

[@carsontheFritz]

That truck looks and sounds absolutely amazing!

[@lukesmotorshop]

DAMN DUDE!!!! Love your truck!! I almost have my '65 D100 on the road. I lowered it using a chrysler 300 front end (K-member & torsion bars) ... I love the patina on your ride!

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

I had seen a bunch of trucks for sale through the years, but I really didnt want a multi colored truck. and I wanted short bed. I couldn't be happier that I found my truck!😁

[@newmexico2623]

Thats bad ass i have almost the exact same looking truck 👊🙏

[@mikebell1063]

Love your truck. Alot of work went in your truck I bet! Thanks for sharing your video.

[@mikebell1063]

Also, how did the steering turn out? Did you use the 78 steering column?

[@LunarOutlawsGarage]

waiting for the DD live checking out your channel. and I am now subed

[@chrismc.4437]

I'm a big fan of indoor burnouts!!

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

you'll have to check out some of my other videos then! I've done a bunch of burnouts in the shop there. did a burnout challenge last year with 4 of my vehicles, my 68 charger, 68 d100, 78 w100, and 78 crew cab cummins

[@chrismc.4437]

Keep on keepin on brother!

[@stevestoecker2371]

Nice! Good work!

[@glenmiller3783]

Cool truck, working on a 65 with a Gen III swap.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

that would be a cool swap to do soemday!

[@appamtnculture1302]

Love it, it’s perfect.

[@alexzanderarmstrong]

Roadkill guy no? 👍😎👍

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

yep!!!😊

[@billr6280]

Badass truck

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

thank you!😁

[@billr6280]

I just picked up a 85 w150 To play around with. It’s very clean but looking to pull the 318. 360 is an easy replacement but your 440 sounds amazing.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

you can't go wrong with a 440!!!😁 yes the 360 is a much easier swap, but a 440 is a bolt together project as long as you have all the parts

[@ryanlewis6095]

Wow great video

[@OldGuyzGarage]

Now that’s a Burn Out!

[@viajandoenmitransalp2270]

Hermosa dodge. Te felicito

[@garyjohnson801]

You could have used a gas tank from a Ramcharger that sits between the frame rails in the rear

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

yes, I could have, but thats not as fun!😁

[@322inc2]

This is definitely one of the sexiest trucks on the planet like for real

[@OldGuyzGarage]

Love It!!

[@groovypop1853]

Very well done! I am wondering how you plugged the gas filler opening on the cab.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

I just used a cap from a spray can and painted it body color haha

[@jaycoy107]

I just bought a 72 D200 that had been setting under a tree for 17 Years. Very straight and nearly no rust. Can you go into a lot more detail about the way you lowered your truck?

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

Nice looking ride what are the rims off thks

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

cragar soft 8, 17x8

[@PeterHatch-mx7zc]

@Floyd's Mayhem Garage found a place sell for $99 each summit sell for $140 each need two for my build

[@wndr0412]

Floyd you have been called out by mortske to do a burout before the end of the year

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

I'm on it!!!😁

[@AB-sr1mu]

Where did you get your kit for the axle flip?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

I pieced it together, I bought a caltracs traction bar setup for a 66 to 70 b body mopar, and modified it to fit the truck. and that gave me the lower spring plates, and then I welded on new shoes on the rear end

[@jeromecabral8440]

My great uncle owns one just like the one shown

[@snake_eyes_garage]

Looks great!

[@rodrigovilela29]

Nice!

[@nearpar]

Did you clear coat or use linseed oil? looks like clear though..

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

neither, I just polished the original paint

[@claytonhaske]

What year vans do I look for with the pocketed lca's?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

1979 to 1994 dodge b100/b150 van

[@claytonhaske]

@@floyds.mayhem.garage thanks brother!!! What's up with that Daytona in the garage?!?! Badass!!!

[@Mr-mopar]

You still have this truck?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

yes I do, its just currently broken. hopefully I'll get around to fixing it soon

[@cameronduarte2928]

What cam?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

stock cam for a 68 c body

She is unique therefore she is expensive

[@soxsucks]

440 sounds mean. What was done to it?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

stock rebuild on a 1968 block, 10 to 1 compression, nothing special for a cam, but edelbrock carb and intake with long tube ceramic coated headers into 3 inch dual exhaust, 3 inch by 14 inch glasspacks out the side of the bed

[@4WheelDaily]

I'm going to have to pick your brain. I have a 66 I wanna do the same thing to.

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

not a problem. I've got a bunch of pictures of the build on my Instagram as well. eric.lemay I'll get a more in depth video of the build posted up as well

[@4WheelDaily]

@@floyds.mayhem.garage Thanks bud, I have sourced a frame for my build. I am following your IG so I look forward to updates.

[@soxsucks]

Have an instagram?

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

Yup @eric.lemay

[@earlputnal9124]

All of that work when all you had to do was modify the suspension of the 1968 frame. And you wouldn't have to cut off or transform any of the body of the 1968 D100 body. SMH.

[@frankstephenson1746]

I like the stock one better Could have sold the ‘78 for gas money

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

stock ride height, slant 6, 3 on the tree, drum brakes, solid front axle. no thank you!😂

[@shaunclifton5281]

@@floyds.mayhem.garage Amen ! I have a factory big block 70 Sweptline that I can't wait to get down to your ride height and toss the straight axle in the trash.

[@georgecass8529]

Don't wanna see how you ruined a perfectly good pickup .

[@floyds.mayhem.garage]

ruined?😂 yeah, cause a 2wd short bed truck with a slant 6 could do so many more things that it can't do now. it's a hot rod, not a work truck.

how is it ruined? what can't it do now that it could do as a 2wd slant 6, 3 on the tree truck? cause it's now faster, handles better, rides better, and stops better

@@floyds.mayhem.garage Wow. Dead stock, miserable brakes, miserable steering, miserable suspension, underpowered trucks really have some serious, dedicated fans.
