No Engine, No Problem | The Winter Overhaul | Destination Adventure

[@JohnHill-qo3hb]

Dustin, I think we watch whatever you show us because we want to know what is involved with the making of "our" adventure video series, like you, we are in it for the long haul. Maintenance of the machinery used to make the videos is as important as the adventure without one, the other doesn't happen. Your Dad left you probably the most important tool for you to live this life of adventure that you share with us, take care of the truck, it will take care of you. Looking forward to the new season in "The Outback".

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you so much :)

[@pernielsen9812]

Ecsactly 🌻🙂👍

[@donaldmickunas8552]

Dustin, I love watching you work almost as much as while on your adventures. You take your time, pay attention to details, and are disciplined in all you do. These are qualities that I rarely see these days. For these reasons and more, I am a huge fan.

[@Destination_Adventure]

I really appreciate that, thank you.

[@jburnett8152]

I love that there are those who enjoy these shows. ❤

[@eddierush8460]

The best part . Is working with your dad .

[@johnjensen8470]

Brother I’ve been in the auto repair business for 20 years and I can’t tell you how impressed I am with your willingness and determination to do it yourself. Your content has been a bright spot in my week for the past couple years (found the channel during the pandemic) and I’m so excited to see what comes next! God Bless from New Jersey!

[@WilsonJohnson-y1i]

Hi, Dustin P, Thanks for your adventures and your drone footage is out of this world. I am a 70 year old adolescent, what you are doing makes me reminiscent of my earlier years. What you say at the end of every video " Take only pictures leave only foot prints" means a LOT, I wish more people would follow your advice. Keep up this good, no great, work. God bless you and your family. PS: thank your parents for bringing up such a wonder person.Thanks again, Wils J from NL

[@Ari-jj9op]

Disassembling that engine is like watching a nightmare in real time. Bravo!

[@Destination_Adventure]

Hahahaha I agree.

[@pappysproductions]

Gives me anxiety 😫 😅

[@stephenrrose]

Dustin! I will watch any of your videos as long as you make them! Great Job on the major projects! You working with your Dad and hearing some of his advice is priceless. It brought back memories of me helping my Dad change out a clutch pressure plate and install a small block on another vehicle. Priceless times and enjoy having him around! Take care!

[@Destination_Adventure]

I appreciate that, thank you. Happily forcing my dad into projects. Hahah

[@ADVRider78]

Warms my heart seeing you work on the truck with your dad. I've lost mine way too early. Good job on the repairs, looking forward to the coming season.

[@laurastreifel5157]

Thanks for the update. I was worried why I hadn't seen anything from you in a while. It is so nice to see your Dad helping you out. You are so lucky to have your Dad & Grandad in your life. Can't wait to see your next adventure.

[@paulsiniak2061]

Good job Dustin, me and the GF appreciate your work, humor and thirst for adventure. Good to see your Dad in video.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you.

[@pappysproductions]

Weather we're into builds or not , doesn't really determine weather we watch your videos. It's the quality and entertainment that you master, that brings us back. I belive alot of us would probably watch a tutorial of you explaining how paint drys 😂

[@parkerottoackley6325]

Don't worry,,,spring is just around the corner

[@montyforster3370]

Danged excited as to where you take us next. With yoyr flair for the outrageous i can only guess. Cheers man. Yoo Hoo

[@kristiclifton3974]

I know zero about anything mechanical, other than having before heard some of the terms you used, but I was committed to watching this video thru to the end due to you making engine repair even seem interesting!! Glad you have your rig back in shape and looking forward to all of your future videos!!

[@lifewithconnie3738]

Dustin!!!! I absolutely love watching these “fix-it” videos. Can’t wait to follow you in a new season of travel. You are my favourite channel!!!!! I know I say it often-BUT! If you’re ever in the lower mainland - could you do a “MEET AND GREET”? I can guarantee there would be a lot of people who would love to meet you face to face. You could sign all the merch we’ve bought from your website!!! I need a cap! Thanks 😊

[@Destination_Adventure]

I really appreciate that, thank you. I will give some thought into the meet and greet :)

[@oxygen454]

Defiantly! I would be down for a meet and greet in the lower mainland!

[@ibMoose2u]

I have my beloved 2001 Dodge 2500 5.9HO 6spd manual that I had built for me at the factory! She stayed stock until I got ready to retire in 2018. I then put an Edge computer in her, S&B air filter, Banks exhaust/air brake/air intake, bigger turbo, FASS fuel system and AirLift bags. I also redid the entire front end with beefier parts to get rid of that wander and wobble earlier Dodge’s are infamous for. She tows my 11k travel trailer with ease! I love the computer for fuel economy when not towing which is around 28mpg doing 65mph here in the hills of Montana and for the extra power when towing. The air brake is probably my absolute favorite, such peace of mind when starting a steep grade, especially towing, and hear that air brake’s guttural sound as it keeps forward momentum at bay!! I love the detail and care you put into your girl Dustin!! What a fun video though I can only imagine that it was a bit of stress for ya!! Bravo!

[@camshaftP16]

Nice to see your dad come out and help. I always appreciated when my dad would share his wisdom with me. As a long time heavy duty mechanic I see your doing good with your repairs, the rig will be safe and reliable.

[@ziptiesnbiasplies]

Nice work hippy!

[@outofcloudsmusic]

I shoulda known ol' Peg would be watching this!

[@flyovercounty1427]

Head gasket!?! DANG it! Time for fixing… truth be told I enjoy these videos more than the “footage” touring trashed and vandalized abandoned places. The scenery, travels by land and water, historical information, and camping segments are the best part of your videos. The Best. Thank you.

[@earlwarren2265]

Its really super to see you working with your dad. Be sure to include him with as much as he wants to be involved with.

[@medionlvr]

patience? heck, every episode is fascinating

[@danielcarroll5667]

Nice to see a Father and Son work together , can you imagine how much $$ that would have been if you weren't capable of doing it yourself ? Great job Gents !

[@kevinSmith-hw8ui]

Total respect! Never had anyone do any work for me and I'm old. People are afraid to do things DIY, and as you often say, "Let's Whip it!". My wife says, "I can't do that" and I ask her, "have you tried?" NO, she said.

[@allynmoore2829]

I got to hand it to you. For not being a mechanic you did an excellent job. Good move puting in the studs as the head bolts should be replaced anyway because they stretch.

[@terrorbulyfe]

I’m not gonna lie, I watch your channel for the destination content and filmography. When I saw what this video was about on a rebuild of an engine, I thought I was gonna be bored and keep this on in the background. Gotta admit, I wasn’t bored. Basically, you can’t make a boring video. Well done sir!

[@chunkylover53ataol]

Your video production is as always fantastic, no matter what the subject you are filming. Thanks for a great episode.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Thank you.

[@busterbrown5851]

Dustin, a big part of your front tires cupping, is due to the weight of the truck, most likely to far over the rear axle. As you drive, especially at highway speeds, the front end of the truck is bouncing up and down slightly, which deforms the tires, which only exaggerates as the problem gets worse. I drive a flatbed dodge 5500, and carry heavy loads often, and the only way i get any life out of a set of tires is by rotating them constantly.

[@busterbrown5851]

@Destination_Adventure

[@Destination_Adventure]

The weight definitely contributes, and front tires will be somewhat of a consumable. lol. The rig is nicely balanced though. She’ll get new boots this spring, so we’ll see if it wears a bit better with the upgrades. Even a little improvement will be good. lol.

[@jedharding3492]

That 1/2" socket wrench moving around on top of the driver side battery around 24:00 mad me a little nervous! Definitely one of my favorite adventures of yours so far!! Stellar work.

[@ryankeegan695]

That finger slice was gnarrrlllllyyy

[@carycoombe3380]

Really brave of you stripping down to your socks to step into the engine compartment.

[@paultthompson]

I really like the truck maintenance videos. Great work! Keep the videos coming!

[@gregruckstuhl4268]

Love seeing your dad pop by it's like watching twins but one with a Beard and the other shaved 😅😎👍 amazing determination X2 I send all the best thoughts and feelings and I will see you soon on the next Destination adventure 💝😁

[@stevenbridge]

That was the best sounding cummins I've ever heard. Congratulations! Looking forward to the new trail blazing.

[@shawnburnett22]

I cant believe you didnt let Mick help on the repair ,,,,,more Mick ,,,more Mick

[@Nancy-xs9pm]

Garage time or on the road, you always make it enjoyable. We always come away having learned something. Thanks for what you bring to us.

[@Destination_Adventure]

I appreciate that, thank you.

[@peterrafferty6418]

So looking forward to your new adventures, and where it takes you,with new scenery and open roads,safe travel and exploring,watching you from Galway,Ireland,

[@orbnaes]

We get adventures and working on a old truck, I don't know what more one could ask for!

[@Destination_Adventure]

🍻

[@lyndonhamby7432]

I have South Bend dual disc clutch in my 05 3500 Cummins. For 11 years Flawless. Can’t beat ‘em 💪🏻👍🇺🇸

[@davidthomas9267]

Great DIY job. Probably couldn't find a shop to do that good of a job anyway. Spring is coming!!

[@AdventureAwaits1111]

Thank you for taking the time to video the overhaul. Doing these kinds of jobs in "the barn" are never really fun. I felt your pain with the suspension links, i know those jobs, and got the scars to prove it. Lol. Stay safe, and happy trails 👍

[@davevmey]

Really enjoy your regular videos. I have great respect for how involved you are in the maintenance of your rig. You know your stuff. This could be a great help if you ever break down on the road.

[@blueman5924]

Wow. What a big job. Your “get er done” skillset is so broad. 👍 Nice to see your dad again too. Happy trails ahead. 🍁🤙

[@Destination_Adventure]

Got er done :)

[@robroaring7175]

Hey mate, Although I love the outdoor adventures, the workshop vids are a very close second. Behind the science vids are vital to show people that it isn’t all roses when pursuing a van life. I really like seeing both sides. The adventures, and the work to make it possible. Keep up the great vids. It’s a Sunday morning treat to see your vid has dropped when I wake up. Cheers from Tasmania.

[@ronteljeur]

Get 'er done! A wise investment of time and content that those thinking of following in your path need to understand. Being seriously stuck in the middle of nowhere would not be fun. I'm just happy to see an episode of yours on my video list!

[@ronaldbeuron3766]

Wow congratulations on your huge amount of hard work! Not to mention skill and research you had to do on theses jobs. Great job Dustin!

[@my81shovelhead]

Love that u show the maintenance part of destination adventure and that youre doing it getting dirty and hanging with your dad.bet hes showing u things u didnt even know.my dad was a mechanic and whenever we got to work on something together he always had a trick or shortcut hed learned from 50 years of working on cars .anyway cant wait for spring to get here and see your new adventures and hopefully soon ill be taking my old truck camper out as well.thanks again

[@Thenomadicbrewer]

Great to see that you got head gasket work completed. Looking forward to the season of adventure ahead.

[@SunRainbow-t4o]

I’m watching your show you take apart your whole engine and it’s SUSPENCEFULL ITS SO REAL and I only watch real life shows and it’s so good it always works again after your amazing ❤

[@83glxcrusin97]

Totally a Roughneck lol... Your totally confident wrenching lol... Nicely done 👍👍

[@Rayden440]

As a diesel mechanic, you did well for never worked on a diesel before. Another skill added to your belt 👍 PS. Your mechanical pump and injectors will tolerate much more abuse. I wouldn't recommend cleaning the lines like that if you had a newer electronic injection or common rail system.

[@arnicus208]

Should’ve had Mick help with these projects; always entertaining! I have that headlight. Absolute money, for the money.

[@riverrockfab]

I was thinking the same thing, it must be fun for your dad to watch you mess with his old rig. It’s nice to see you taking care of it, and the motor is in great shape. It makes complete sense for you to build it right the first time, we all rely on our vehicles… but especially you. You need this thing to work all the time when you’re remote. Good work, its fun to watch! 😊

[@michealwhynot]

Great work man a person can't beat the good old 12V that's for sure they are the best engine ever built

[@Dcb96]

Sure love this content just as much as your travel content. You sir are a very talented cinematographer! Thanks for your attention to detail. Also, your soundtracks for each video continue to blow my mind, love hearing some Josh Garrels. Great job!

[@kenbaxter536]

My favorite method of fan clutch removal!!!

[@endangeredmarmot4518]

Nice work, D. I love the sound of a well running 12 valve.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Such a distinct sound.

[@toddtraficanti4832]

Love ALL your adventures, even the shop work. I did miss seeing Mic hope he’s doing ok. Working on vehicles is something I did in high school and hated it but it was a love hate relationship as I’m sure you can appreciate it. Looking forward to the next installment of adventure. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@2times2is4]

Love that you can be your own mechanic. I really enjoy the down time and the preparation for the spring and summer trips.

[@kjf63]

I’m not the least bit mechanical, I can barely check the oil. I have no idea why I enjoy your shop videos as much as I enjoy your adventure videos…but I do! 😊

[@michalsrandoms8749]

She sounded beautiful. Having been around diesel engines in the military, that sounded better than most of the HMMWV's (humvee) that I have driven.

[@b4566bb]

My wife and I just absolutely love you!🎉😊. Thanks again for sharing your adventures It's just fantastic!🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@craigbenson398]

Well done, thanks for showing the repairs and related struggles. You have the : I can do it gene.

[@evileyeball]

The way your dad worked along side you with his hands was giving me strong vibes of my grandfather (Except with him it was always wood as apposed to mechanics) This was a great video.

[@NotSureJoeBauers]

Awesome work Dustin. You're dads a real good old boy logger type. Kind of guy whose just about seen everything and done everything out in the bush.

[@randybooth9192]

Dustin im surprised mick never showed up to help.. seems he only comes for the easy jobs not the heavy lifting🤣 thanks for keeping us entertained man🤘

[@mastiffsrme]

Dustin, you are such a treasure 😊

[@jbpyper]

Nice Job! Not an easy job. As a father, Love seeing you working with your dad. I’ve had the pleasure of imparting my skills and lack there of, to my own son. Value added all the way around!

[@derekace7471]

We would love a toolbox tour! New videos idea! Much love from Wisconsin!

[@bc30cal99]

Greetings from the south Okanagan, thanks for another video. The build videos are interesting and for me add a layer of depth to you on a couple levels. First the mechanic tasks aren't simple or easy, second it's neat to see your father helping you. All the best until next time.

[@quarlow1215]

This is what I love to see. Prepare for as much as you can and after that you can only deal with what comes but you know that you've done as much as you can. As trucker, equipment operator preventative maintenance is so important. Ive worked for guys that were really good at it and ive worked for guys that run them till they dropped and I'll take the guy with pride that maintains it every day. Im sure that is what was instilled in you by your dad. Good job Dustin.

[@luckyedwards4870]

Very impressive Dustin, these kind of repairs r not small or simple, and have lots of possibilities for mistakes, but u pulled it off, way to go. I know I'm biased, bn I have the same truck as u, (except mines a 1998), but I just luv watching these repair vids u do. Very interesting and entertaining. More power to u, Dustin, keep'er goin. 👍👍👍

[@SandraStoyanoff]

The joys of having a garage. Where will you be off to come the warm weather 🤔

[@gmac9956]

It's awsome your bringing the beast back to New like standards. It will serve you well for years to come.

[@justineball9511]

Just love your personality. Always interesting and amazing. So looking forward for the coming trips you have planned. 😊

[@1462JWOOD]

South Bend !!!!! Best ever… Great choice.

[@JohnCouch-m4f]

Great to see you and Dad working together! Some big jobs there, and only 1 bandaid needed, not bad at all! Nice to see that you are moving forward and doing the needed repairs and up grades. Thanks for bringing us with you once again Dustin, always a pleasure to see what's going on in your world! See you next week my friend!

[@DirtRoadTherapy]

Anyone else get chills when it fired up? Congrats on your first HG job Dustin, you didn’t pick the easiest one and you nailed it!

[@alanvanreed6878]

Dustin ...... you are absolutely fearless ....... very much impressed. I am guessing that a lot of this confidence comes from working around you dad and others ........and you learned from being around a shop getting stuff ready for logging etc etc Best Thoughts Alan Boston

[@beachtimehawaiibth7222]

Love the prep videos and always impressed by the knowledge as the average person doesn’t know how to do a clutch, repair/bleed a broken brake line, and do an upper end head gasket…..maybe a video on your background of how you learned mechanics and even throw in some interviews of people who taught you along the way perhaps? Nice boards…shout out to SK customs!

[@krishilgersom8132]

Great job on the repairs. Your old man seems like a great wealth of knowledge. Most old loggers are lol. Don’t take those times turning wrench’s with him for granted, trust me you never know when it’s the last time. That old Cummins should be rock solid for a pile more Klms now.

[@sandralnwebster3204]

Dustin you are the patient one ! You just saved yourself many dineros by working on your truck's engine ! I could hear your satisfaction when the engine was up and running! You must have had many lessons in engine repair from your dad in your shop-lucky you! "Patience is as patience does!"😊

[@Jan-pw4po]

It's always great to see a new video, great job on the engine

[@NorthernRetreat]

Very interesting. Enjoyed the rebuild but sure looks like a lot of work. Can't wait for these remote locations.

[@chrisbruce8972]

Nice to see u & ur father working together

[@ksokie63]

Hey Dustin 👋, great video on maintenance and how to just do what need done. Keep warm and have a great week ahead👍

[@davidbarnsley8486]

I glad it was you doing that job on the floor there Dustin That flywheel is definitely toast I hope the new bits work well 👍👍🇦🇺 That dust in the intake is a real problem Might need a snorkel to get it up out of the engine bay Dustin the diesel mechanic 😂😂

[@johnmclaren7059]

Fantastic Dustin! Another check mark on the “to do list “DONE👍 Nice to see your dad also giving you a hand ! We can’t wait for your next up coming adventure now that the ol’ girl will be ready to purr down those gravel roads ! Cheers brother and stay safe 👍🇨🇦

[@jamespeart9922]

Great work. Next thing I think you need is a winch. Reliability is paramount for remote excursions, but I'd still be worried about you getting stuck out there with no one around for hundreds of KMS.

[@greatplainsman3662]

Gotta admit I had a tear or two thinking of my dad during this video. Been gone along time now. Thanks for what you do Dustin.

[@KrazyMitchAdventures]

Man... I love Destination Adventure, whether you are travelling, or at home working in the rig.. It is always an Adventure.. Thanks Dustin.

[@Destination_Adventure]

Cheers Mitch. 🍻

[@cesarovermars6431]

I like this show love watching you fix your truck your very brave and strobe and smart at fixing your truck by yourself mostly your grandpas a good helper ❤

[@davecashel4007]

Big thumbs up for Dad. Always great to see family come together on a project. Keep up the beauty content. 🤙🏻

Good job for a "couple of armatures' lol/ Got her purring like a house cat.

[@williamdumont912]

KEEP THEM COMING! I really like those vids they are great you simply make great content either on the road or in the shop! thanks again.

[@EchoJulez]

That’s impressive. I couldn’t imagine tackling such a huge project. Well done!

[@MrTonyPiscatelle]

You can dew it ! Nice job dude, you seem pretty comfortable with wrenches and sockets and that is cool.

[@rwilli296]

It is so good to see how committed you are to your viewers!. You are very talented.. Thank you

[@ggregory6611]

Love my SBC dual disk clutch…..lol

[@geoffthiessen646]

Holy moly - it’s like another rebuild lol (glad your not afraid to do it yourself) good for you Dustin !!!!!

[@KrazyMitchAdventures]

18:40 I found this online about 12v Cummins There are two different versions of the 2nd Gen Cummins. The first is a 12-valve engine featured in 1994 through 1998 Dodge trucks, and it is very similar to the 1st Gen engine. The second version is a 24-valve engine and is featured in the 1998.5 through 2002 Dodge trucks

[@purplemnkydshwshr]

Always enjoy your videos, can't wait to see where post winter takes you.
