NEW TO ME 1990 INTERNATIONAL 4600 ROLLBACK! KINDA.....

I SOLD MY 2013 HINO ROLLBACK. I REALLY LIKED HAVING A SMALL ROLLBACK AROUND. I JUST DIDNT LIKE HAVING AS MUCH MOMNEY INVESTED IN ONE AS I DID. SO I STARTED LOOKING FOR SOMETHING IN A MORE ACCEPTABLE PRICE RANGE. I HAD MY PRIORITES. THE IMPORTANT THINGS TO ME WERE BUDGET, CONDITION, ABLE TO USE QUICKLY, EASY TO USE AND WORK ON, NO EMMISSIONS! I FOUND PLENTY THAT NEEDED ENGINES, RUSTED OUT STEEL BEDS AND COUNTLESS "PROJECT" TRUCKS. THIS IS THE ONE THAT SUITED ME BEST. MIGHT STAY AS IT IS OR IT MAY GET SOME SIGNIFICANT CHANGES....I GUESS YOU WILL HAVE TO WATCH AND SEE!

[@arneservatius8686]

It’s crap!👎

[@j.c.smithprojects]

its crap? i assume your rollback is better? lets see yours.

[@marcfournier823]

This truck is as green as you can get. Repurposing or refurbishing old iron like this is environmentally responsible since it returns to service as 100% recycled. This one is far from crap it's a jewel.

[@rodneymiddleton9624]

That truck should be serviceable and last you a long time. Thanks JC!

[@jasonfletcher8444]

The reason you gravitate towards them is because in the end they are the most reliable and easy to work on.

[@NOT_FOR_HIRE]

Thats a nice bed! Much better design than the budget bed.

[@j.c.smithprojects]

i think those locks are a fantastic design. i bought a bundle of trucks last night and it might change the plans for this one.....if it is still here.

I have an 88 international wrecker with the 7.3 idi. Love the truck. Simple, reliable, will pull anything, just not in any hurry.

[@j.c.smithprojects]

i have owned many of these trucks and never had any troubles with them. very reliable and not bad on fuel either. like you say....just not fast. they should slogan these as the safest engine to have in your truck because it will keep you slow and steady.

[@terryfromsouthcarolina4601]

That's a clean old truck. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do to it. I'm with you on the 2 speed rears. I have had several get stuck between gears. In the worst danged times and places too. Terry from South Carolina

Good old truck, it will work for your needs

[@Chr.U.Cas2216]

Dear J.C. Smith 👍👌👏 Congrats! That's a great purchase for sure (and not only because I absolutely love nearly everything that is green). I guess too that the right/best thing to do is to lower the truck with the 19.5" wheels. But then it even runs less than 65mls per hour. But I guess you will use another rear axle/rear differential too. Wouldn't it be easier, less time consuming and more durable to put steel plates on the bed instead of wooden boards? As always: Thanks a lot for making teaching explaining recording editing uploading and sharing. Best regards luck and health to all of you.

[@Mahees_230]

You've done it again. Another International has been brought into the fold. I rode in a Hino once. Roomy cab, good visibility, decent headroom, but I hated the ergonomics and the dash layout. I'll take the International any day. The engine sounds like the 6.9 litre that I have seen in older Fords before the T444E was introduced. Can't wait until you get it prettied up and put to work.

[@cesmith4566]

Nice old school truck! JW would be proud! Ya won't have to worry about speeding tickets in it ! It will serve you well!

[@j.c.smithprojects]

only thing missing is a uhaul air ride rear suspension! no, i sure wont be getting any tickets. 64 is about as far as i want to push it.

[@augustzepeczauer]

Awesome man, I love the idi, had one in my 91 F350 and if it had been a stick I wouldn't of ever gotten rid of it. That thing should work great for you.

[@keeganpock864]

HINO IS BADASS! Ive been watching for a while now and just picked up 2000, 4700 with t444e. AND IM SO JELOUS OF THE IDI WE HAVE A 1 ton f350 with an Idi i actually just got a injection pump for. I hope some day i can do what you do with trucks.

[@ChrisScibelli5586]

I like it. If it's safe and gets the job done and you're in it for a quarter of what the Hino costs it's a home run. I have a 79 L600 with a Jerr Dan 21ft roll off for farm use. Slow but sure it gets the job done.

[@robertquast9684]

Oak decking would be solid. When dragging stuff on with the winch wouldn’t metal be a better option so it slides easier and doesn’t dig in.

[@j.c.smithprojects]

it would slide on steel better but if i gouge the steel it is much more difficult to repair than a pice of rough sawn oak. plus, if i use steel, i will have to add as steel spacer to every crossmember to get it up to the height of the outside rails.

[@squintin480]

This is only the second time I've ever seen one of them slide back rollbacks. The first was the other one you built lol. We had a Hino with a cargo king bed by Miller Industries. It's basically a hook lift equipment bed.

[@lloydholt6511]

Nice older truck.

[@localcrew]

If it has the old Stanadyne water separator in it, they’re trouble. They have the spring plunger you pull up to open the valve pin off the seat. For some reason, they make the pin out of regular mild steel and since it is immersed in water - it rusts. Great design, guys. So the valve leaks, air gets in the fuel system and you ain’t going anywhere. Replace it with something newer if you have one of these turds in there. And definitely get some oak cut for the bed. See if you can get it kiln-dried too. That’s what I’d do. 👍

[@j.c.smithprojects]

im not going to have to worry about any of that......

[@richfreedom6577]

It fits you well

[@chrissterling3225]

Nice truck..i personally think dayton wheels are the beat set up...i hate budd wheels..inner nuts often brake or come off with the outers..just a pita . I know this truck wont be loaded excessive...but daytons take more weight..most loggers prefer them . But hey..it's your toy not mine..so you do the voodoo that you do lol . Nice lil truck J.C. 👍

[@j.c.smithprojects]

i agree with the heavy haul and daytons. however, everything i own is an investment and will likely be sold one day. my focus is on what works well and what is most desirable / profitable.

[@The101Point1]

Hinos are great live good visibility great turning radius and almost all of them come with an exhaust brake

[@vaughnhill3437]

Inhad a 98 with a powerstroke in it that was a dog outta the hole with a auto trans but would run 70mph all day long on the highway amd then a had a 2001 with a 225 hp 466 with a auto trans and it would roll out and had plenty of pulling power. Very nice loaded out truck. And then i drove two different ones with 466's and standards transmissions and they were power houese but would only run about 62 mph. All were great trucks and the only major problem they all had in common was the kingpins went bad on every one of em. They are very hard on the kingpins.

hardwood is pretty reasonable for me. i have amish logging friends.
