"When you are by yourself, it quickly becomes a one man job" Quote of the day!!! LOL

[@TrashcanGarage]

When you're an introvert, like I am, it's surprising how inventive you can become to get shit done since it's always a one man crew. 😏

[@jakebrake5776]

​@@TrashcanGaragefacts😂

[@XenaFordPrincess]

I know I'm 4 months late to the party, but when we had to replace the engines under warranty, they came out the bottom. Support the frame just behind the trans crossmember, take out the front axle, then drop it out the bottom with the trans.

[@nathanmorris9931]

Did something similar a few years ago, but I just through a party and turned like 8 people loose with sawzalls. Had the engine out and the entire camper on the ground in about 8 hours. Sold the generator for a couple hundred bucks, and made like $600 in scrap metal. Took me a month to clean up the rest of the mess, but I got the engine for my mega truck. Currently wrapping up assembly on it, wound up stroking it to 520 ci and I'm going with an aluminum top end. Hoping the block will be able to handle about 700hp.

[@Pushrod_Criff]

Seeing this roll into the video all I can say is “I approve of this on so many levels!!” 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣

[@darrelsundling5503]

I did the same thing with a 454 Winnebago to get the engine for my Camaro. Took me 14hours to get it out, with nothing but hand tools, hacksaw and a sledgehammer. Took out the seat, put a cherry picker in, blew out the wall with the sledgehammer, and rolled the engine in through the side door of my van. If there is a will, there is a way ☺️👍

[@novaaldo1735]

That RV chassis would be a great future project. maybe put an old COE cab on it with and LS powertrain. Car hauler

[@larrydavis9029]

Now that's one way to break into an RV to steal a radio !!

[@BudMasta]

Youre putting that content out fast and i think thats helping a bunch. Keep it up

[@PoleBarnGarage]

I'm trying!

[@stevecard2247]

Your attention to intricate detail always astounds me! I wish you had been around many years ago when I was looking for a buyer for my 1966 Chevrolet Biscayne 4 door. That car was a jewel that no one more than you could have appreciated. It had a built-in stealth mode so you could slip by cops after closing the local tavern. Cops wouldn't even notice me when I was driving that car. All that they might later comment upon was the strangeness of the fog bank that had rolled through. Please don't get the idea that I'm bragging or anything and I never intended to diminish your "nighttime sky in the middle of the day" GTO. I guess you must also realize that by giving that camper shell to your son, he's almost sure to patch a grow-op together inside and you'll also be arrested as an accomplice unless your state has legalized. That's all my wisdom for now.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

[@lilmike2710]

Makes me think of all the people I've heard saying "You'll play hell getting that motor out of that RV." 🤣 It's literally a one man job.

Listening to the race yesterday on PRN, the announcer said that Kevin Harvick took his 4 yr old daughter to the gocart track for the first time the other day. She made 1 lap and pulled into the pits and said, Dad I need more motor! Harvick said but honey it's a weed eater motor and I can't do anything about it 🤣🤣

[@mightymikethebear]

You removed the engine in a straightforward manner. You did it without making a big mess and that is so cool! I am not trying to get a fight between you and the Roadkill guys but your removal video was better than theirs and you do not have a large budget. BTW, I think the Rolled Runner would be more fun to drive with a 5 speed manual - IMO.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

5 speeds would die behind a 440, but an 833 would be great. Not gonna happen unfortunately $$$$

[@mightymikethebear]

@@PoleBarnGarage You are probably right in reference to this project car. I was just throwing out a suggestion - no biggie.

I thought I was the only one who worked on cars like that. I'm both happy and sad at the same time.

[@2koolchris291]

Yay I love good content. As I said on my previous comment I’m wanting to buy that old one and make it into a good ramp truck and use the old shell of the motor home for siding on my dads pole barn because the holes need covering. Accidentally tapped the walls with the plow truck a few too many times. I’m thinking on using a Chevy suburban and cut it behind the rear doors because crew cabs around here are high in value. I’ll still use the back hatch and tailgate

[@blevins6584mopar]

Gonna go varoom or kaboom ? If you put that air cleaner in the Rolled Runner flip the lid makes that four barrel howl ‼️

[@jasonpetrich4141]

Hey you might need that spiffy new aluminum bar grill you got there don't bend it up. It could fit a car would look funny but !!.....

Excellent! Hopefully you can use the trans on that.

[@BIGAL1973]

Dude your attention to recycling engine fluids is so good it show your a true professional bravo sir bravo 😂

[@leonh1971]

The times I have done this, we jacked it up, cut the engine free and dropped it out the bottom.

[@Travis7109]

I would imagine the easiest way to service the engine when it needs to be pulled to service is completely lift the body off the frame.

[@Yo-mamashouse]

Make big power cheap with low comp 440.....m1 intake ,850cfm,509 cam..... 473tq and 459hp....look up the Dyno test.

[@barneymiller6204]

Keep your cat away from that green radiator "water".

[@the_truck_farmer]

Rvs are fantastic for spare parts! I parted out a Winnebago and got a 454 motor, th400 trans, huge radiator to run my shop boiler heater through, Onan generator, miles of wire harness and dual battery cables, a huge gas tank to store my waste oil in, and a free shed once I gutted it 😆

[@royhaught9516]

When they built it they must have put the engine and trans on the frame and built the motorhome around it.

[@auteurfiddler8706]

Yes. That is how it was built. Frames with drive trains shipped to the RV makers.

[@auteurfiddler8706]

But you remove the engine from the bottom. Not a mystery like they make it out to be. The challenge would be to do it without a lift.

[@royhaught9516]

@@auteurfiddler8706 Then i'm assuming to replace an engine the whole body unit would have to come off the frame?

[@auteurfiddler8706]

@@royhaught9516 No. You put it on a lift and remove the engine or trans from the bottom. I seem to recall you have to remove the straight axle first if you are removing the engine.

[@tkskagen]

I'd love to see a video of you (and son) set-up the RV for his "FORT/BOY CAVE"! Too bad he won't have electricity or WiFi, guess he'll have to be a kid like we where back in the day...

Congrats PBG on yanking-out the 440/trans for ur RR. I knew that u could do-it. Yank one day/put-in another day.

[@dowen1511]

Should be able to just change out the tail on the trans but not positive. The out put shaft could be larger one like on commercial trucks over 1 ton size . but if not then .

[@auteurfiddler8706]

The output shaft has to go with the tailshaft it came off of. True.

[@randall1959]

You could always use it for a fishing cabin at the pond.

[@PoleBarnGarage]

[@artlife6210]

this is a quality video here lol a real pain in the arse to get the motor out, you could pull the windshield out and crane it through the opening maybe?

[@EReznok]

4:30 Trying to save some possible hassle here, is there any way to replace that scene with "the system has been evacuated by a trained professional". Me personally I say let-er-rip, but I'm not on camera. I think the Dirty Jobs TV show got slapped for doing that in the shows opening scene,

[@PoleBarnGarage]

I'm not held to quite the same standard. I mean there's videos of people doing way worse lol

[@ericborgen7311]

Sounds great tow it to the woods and let your son use it for a club house cool sounds like a great idea you should block off the hole in the floor is the dipstick longer in the motor home if it is you can take the one from your other 440 and switch them you should have seen me when I was putting a 1971 Plymouth valaint scamp slant six into my 1984 RAM 150 I had to change my sump and oil pan and dipstick and the engine mounts were a definite need to be changed the pan covered the old dipstick hole and I used some silicone to fill in the old dipstick tube hole

[@WebVette80]

You generally don't have to change an engine on these things, because the coach wears out long before the engine, lol

[@auteurfiddler8706]

The transmission PRO: Unlike most Dodge class A (box type) Motor homes, it does NOT have the big fat parking brake drum on the back. Which doesn't fit under a unibody car like a B body. Con: Has the short tailshaft. The car needs the long tailshaft. You can swap tailshafts between the three types of trans: 1. Car - long 2 RV Long with drum parking brake 3 Truck Short and you can switch between 727 trans tailshafts small block and big block. If that yoke slides, you don't have to worry about that aspect. Hey, you could even convert to having the sliding part in the driveshaft if you wanted to. I've never heard of someone using the short trans to go in a car. You'd have to make a plate about 6 inches to go from your trans cross member to the trans. And, of course, you'd have to make a driveshaft. Luckily you kept the one from the RV in good condition to use as a starting point.😁

[@ianjones4071]

Good work, would love to see engine installation, cheers mate 👍

[@MikeVonGoon81]

that motorhome was braking bad anyway, so it's best to keep it still from now on ;-) also, I seriously doubt that they've been cooking regular meals in this, more likely something spicier and dangerouslier, hence the stripped interior with the only comfort remaining being a radio, a gas stove and a (walter) white paint suit ;-) can't wait to see the 440 installed in the rolled runner (I'm a year behind most videos on your channel, so bear with me)
