INTERNATIONAL 4700 ROLLBACK LETS SHORTEN THE FRAME

Martin's Channel / @guitarist9753

[@tomcool6098]

Looking good! Can't wait to see it finished. Keep them videos coming. We all enjoy watching them

[@karlelliott9254]

I was lucky enough to get a personalized tour of the new Freightliner plant in Mt. Holly, N. C. in the early 1980’s. It was amazing to see the frame rails brought in, computer control punched with every hole in one lick, everything put together and literally driven out the other end of the building. What an eye opener it was. The whole place was cleaner than clean. Great job on a great build Jonathan.

[@jorgefernandez-mv8hu]

That truck is going to be better than when it left the factory after you get done with it.I always learn something and get great tips from your videos. You are the man to watch and learn from. See you on the next one.

[@mattthescrapwhisperer]

I cracked up at the Alvin & the Chipmunk voices 😂. I really like your homemade trammel points for transferring the hole markings. Nice work you guys.

[@Guitarist9753]

Thank you Jonathan for having me to help you on this project. I am enjoying working with you on it and I am learning some things as a bonus. Thank you for the shout out for my channel also!

[@terrycole9427]

It is great to see someone that that still believes in doing it the right way. That's why I really enjoy watching your videos keepem coming

[@Bill-in3cn]

going to be a nice addition to the fleet, maybe enough space to put a sidepuller in front of the bed

[@tmackinator]

Huge job, next to impossible- No problem says Johnathan! Best example of American work ethic.

[@sodiorne2]

Yep! Another Good one! Nice to see you making your own!

[@topline620]

I would not of guessed that one, now you can have music at the Cruise In. 😊😊👍🇬🇧

[@waynespyker5731]

Simply a 50 inch winner!

[@ronaldcamp6757]

You always amaze me with your ability to analyze and plan a build!

[@Chr.U.Cas1622]

👍👌👏 Quite an impressive job, Sir (again and as always)! You have been kind of rewarded by the fact, that nearly everything fitted well (drive shaft, most of the holes in the frame, etc.). I'm happy to see that at last you are building yourself the rollback bed truck you always wanted respectively fits your needs best. Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and especially health to all of you. Post Scriptum: I will definitely check out the channel you recommended.

[@johnhansen4550]

Great to see that you are getting some help from Martin! Good Progress

[@daviddaniels6473]

You make this kind'a work look easy. But I know it ain't. Great job bud!

[@garymccord4277]

Wonderful to see how you done this type of work, would be safe to say that this NOT your first Rodeo Great job on another great tool for your channel. A++++++

[@dptp9lf]

I built a couple glider kits back in the 80's... i drilled one hole and went and bought a mag drill. 147 holes on each glider... LOL

[@RatdogDRB]

Sometimes, simply taking the time to have a cup of coffee while sitting/looking/thinking, and applying a little common sense can make all the difference in the outcome of a task. Nicely done Kemosabe. Of course, a cat scan helps a bit too.

[@paulwalker427]

excellent video - thankyou

[@faerieSAALE]

Never a dull moment at Jonathan's homestead!

[@johnmccormick175]

Your knowledge and abilities never cease to amaze me..thanks for sharing and stay safe.

[@randomyank7777]

A whole lot of work , but it's going to be built better than anything you could buy , for a whole lot more money , & It will last longer too . Doing it right . Less mud catching , more wreck fetching . Love this build . Learning a lot . Working smarter , not harder . Take care , JW .

[@johnkranz4004]

Nicely done Jonathan looks great Happy New Year

[@txstreetman]

Love watching your work, Jonathan. Like you, I am an avid DT360/466 person--only difference is that I play with school buses. My first bus I swapped a DTA360 into (from a 7.3IDI) and made it a 5 and 4 twin stick. Just like you, I'm building em to my spec!

[@ldean-du5im]

Thanks for the update. It’s a good project.

[@timhanson2080]

It's so nice watching you take something that some would just junk and repair it to be used again. You are a good man. 👍🇺🇸

[@kellyeigner3708]

Mag drill is the best way to drill frame for sure

[@Rebar77_real]

Neat trick with the scritchy stick.

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

As always nice work!!

[@charlesfulks6511]

great job been watching from the first one always learn something

[@ironcladranchandforge7292]

No problem for Johnathan!! Looking forward to the rest of the build.

[@heathvice8365]

Always great content on your channel.

[@bvalt1]

I used to drive one of those DT466 IH's in college delivering appliances for Sears. 24' box. Smooth Ride, not too noisy, always started, never broke down with one in 3 years driving 200-300 miles a day every weekend, break, and full time in the summer. Those things are beasts, ours were sprint trucks so low geared, 65mph max on the highway, but they got up and went in the city, we would do anywhere from 17-31 stops a day, depending on the season. Great turning radius too. Never had an issue with them, great trucks, and always went straight down the highway. You're gonna love the extra weight capacity!!

[@suewyke5844]

Well looking good and glad you have some help and can't wait to see it when it's finished Johnboy.

[@ZMadtrapper]

THANKS fer postin EH !! Awaitin yer updates !! WAVIN a hand EH !!

[@chucky2u]

Jonathan don't know if you tried but there is a wax in a tube for magdril bits keeps them cooler and last longer.

[@chucksterock]

Just a couple of five minute jobs away from being done! That is a big job and it's looking great!

[@j.c.smithprojects]

cant wait to see this bed get cut apart and repaired.

[@Dancing_Alone_wRentals]

I watched your videos and saw how you watch the driveshaft lengths while planning cuts. tHanks for all the videos.

[@BlindBatG34]

You are making QUICK work of that project!!!

[@russdavis1960]

That turned out nice with the axle relocation and driveshaft section deleted.

[@ronaldwatterly7747]

That's a really slick drill . I've never seen one of those!

[@drive42]

I like your pointer set-up to transfer holes for the spring perches. I will absolutely steal this idea, and will give you full credit.

[@user-vm7xv3md2g]

Amazing engineering, and amazing project undertaking. Anxious to see the conclusion and the finished product!

[@manicmechanic9117]

Looks good but those cross members look like a pain I am trying to envision how to change them with out going completely nuts . Good luck and Happy New Year !

[@bombardier3qtrlbpsi]

Know those wheels well. Have the gear wrench for those stud's. Only unit I have left is a split rim style. F600 winch truck.1961. Yrs and yrs ago it had a tank on it and it suck the car washes out in those days. They took a rod out of the truck. So it was bought and turned into a winch truck with gin poles. Funny never had a problem with the truck or the motor. Plus it's has not ever let me down. One time gen light went out luckily made it to the shop. Great video 👍

[@kentmckean6795]

Nice! You make it look easy.

[@ronaldschultz1189]

I moved my truck rear end but mine was riveted in a double frame. I had to drill each rivet out but I put it back with grade 8 bolts. A big job for sure.

[@sugartreefordman7293]

Jonathan you're a top notch mechanic and fabricator! Amazes me how much technical knowledge you have. Stuff I'd just give up on you're like not a big deal or not an issue!

[@AndrewHCann]

Excellent video Johnathan W :) also super job on flat bed tow truck repair and installation too!

[@davidtappe5337]

Good morning, yall have a great week.

[@JamesDavis-to1hn]

Outstanding job!!!!!

[@terrymassengale3254]

That’s cool that is going to be a nice truck.

[@luisbatista1103]

Glad to be back watching this yt creator 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇨🇦

[@rolandtb3]

When you know what you are doing the impossible becomes achievable. Just weather, time, dedication.

[@sideview79]

Looking good ! Doesn't seem like you're leaving room to build a side puller but hopefully it's in the plans... Great build either way 👍👍

[@johnsmart3587]

Good looking truck in back ground.

[@lindagolembieski7405]

I just love his attitude nothing is impossible for him!❤😅

[@johnsmart3587]

Giad you got a partner helping out. Thanks.

[@w.rustylane5650]

Too bad you can't catch all those drill shavings and send 'em to me. They would make a great gondola load for my model railroad. Cheers from eastern TN

[@joemazzola7387]

There's nothing that Johnathan can't do + he's modest I wouldn't know where to start

[@charlesstarlin6354]

Awesome always cool stuff always thanks

[@mjmcomputers]

Nice job!

[@phooesnax]

Nice work!

[@wayneo7307]

Another Great Video Johnathan ! Great Job 👍 !

[@blackmanops3749]

What does "reclocked the splines" mean and why do it (when referring to the carrier bearing and drive shafts)?

[@blackmanops3749]

@@SayWhut276 Thanks. I've been chasing a vibration on my Silverado after changing u-joints and carrier for a couple years now. Maybe this is the reason!

[@2tana22]

Cool!

[@royhaught9516]

You have everything figured out in advance, I don't think this is your first rodeo.

[@BradinSiouxCity]

we always called them Hanger Bearings

[@katmandu8208]

👍🏻🍻

[@waltermattson5566]

Very cool video.

[@davidlester6092]

👍👍👍

[@jlletaw1954]

I ain't never too much cared nothing for no budd wheels, but if they're on there l work with em' best l can...for me pilot wheels are easier to get along with than budds...l like spoke (Dayton) rims because there's less lug nuts (easier on the back) & the wheels are easier to move around when they're off the truck...Martin has a few more tunes now since the last time l was over there...he did a good job on that Gordon Lightfoot song - better than me

[@cmans79tr7]

If and when the time comes, I can see JW putting one of his steam engines on one of these chassis, pulling the boiler and woodpile behind him on the lowboy😂

[@daviddamico4288]

You definitely have everything under control ..Jonathan great fabricator..

[@arthursmith5409]

In the name of building as cheap as possible, that's why they put it together as they did.

[@waynecreech]

Hey Jonathan, I really enjoy these types of videos.. did Nana catscan this work? without her approval, It won't pass state inspection..

[@n1r0l]

When you shorten the frame does that change the GVW? I know you gain extra capacity based on the weight removed from the tail, but does it go up more based on the shorter wheel base?

[@ellwoodblooz]

Every vid is a learning vid. 😎👍🍺

[@jamesbergeron8356]

"Not a problem." Well for most people it would be, not for you! You do things most engineers would be hard pressed to figure out.

[@stex1985]

👍

[@barneyeckert9702]

I won't be surprised if you cut the long rails loose on the bed and build to your standards and needs.

[@hensleyshobbies-doug7761]

Damn, need to start calling you “Ol knock em out John “, you don’t play around! Haha! That’s good, that’s the way a man oughta be, right? Get it Hoss, get it!

[@mtpockets7352]

I like watching you manulipuate things to your own needs By the way What is a center bearing?

[@wilenelson1810]

Cool 🔥🔩🔨🔧🔥🔨🔩🔧🔥🔨🔩🔧🚚🚚🚚🚚🚚

[@darringusko8539]

I just noticed the International in the background. What ever happened to the small rotator you wanted to build out of it??

[@brh4115]

Good morning boss! How’s the weather?

[@iainleverton5510]

hi jonathan great show , wot happened to the 4x4 truck you were building ???

[@George-dy3pt]

Still there!

[@Hoaxer51]

I’m not sure how many wreckers you own plus the one you’re building now, I think it might make four. It’s getting to the point where you can call it a fleet of wreckers, do you have any plans on hiring another driver as a part time employee? Does your son ever help drag stuff home? Thanks for sharing

[@jhonditch4269]

when less is better.

[@phillipbremer7715]

cutting oil old oil water come on do the same but the sell fancy i just brush or spray it before during after after cut many dry

[@julie5680]

Hi Johnathan, my 79yo father loves your show! He’s restored Studebakers, a Kaiser, Rambler, Packard, etc. Do you have an email or a way to contact you directly.?He has cars to sell because he’s unable to work on them any longer.

[@DeniseDesroches-qn4vk]

[@doscooby76]

Are you still going to put a side puller on this rollback?

[@michaelreynolds1904]

Jonathan, how do I get in touch with you? Found a Sears (I think) vertical steam engaine local to me on Marketplace you may be interested in .

[@jonathanw4942]
