The moment Janelle started talking about mental health, I feared it was a BH promo... BH sucks big time! It it a truly dangerous service that is more probable to hurt than to help! Do NOT USE BH. And Rudy, look into not being sponsored by such a bad company, please.

[@scottmichaels6854]

BetterHelp is a horrible company and should not be promoted by quality KZbin channels. Besides the fact that their counsels often have Zero certifications, they literally paid and $8 million settlement last year for sharing their customers private health information with advertisers. KZbinrs really need to do a "Better" job of vetting their sponsors. Let's stop promoting these scammers.

[@EnufIsTooMuch]

After research BetterHealth and all the criticisms about the company I would never want my personal info to get into their hands. I am a former EMT and Wilderness SAR guy. Retired now, but I well know the impact of accumulated Critical Incident Stress. The best thing is to talk about it with other members of the team, preferably with a moderator. A Critical Incident Debriefing is something a team I belonged to began doing after extreme incidents, such as involving deaths. The effectiveness in relieving stress from simply talking about what you saw and did, hearing it from others, with that person facilitating the discussion just surprised the heck out of me. Most rescue folk keep their experiences bottled up, and even for the "strongest" of us, that crap builds on you. Talk it out, listen to others talk it out. Realize that you may not have quite the same memory of an incident than the team member working next to you, or out of sight on the same operation. Just hearing what you all went thru has value, defuses stress.

[@WatanabeNoTsuna.]

@@Rudysadventureanddesignreal Also, this comment gives away that Rudy is aware of the very legitimate complains leveraged against BH and is helping them try to trow sand in everyone's face with that FAQ. 😕

Nice work Guys !! coming along nicely. excited to see the finished results !!

[@bobbolieu9013]

Janelle, having been in the service as a young adult I saw lots of things that I have in memory that I can't unsee. This of course as you have learned does lead to a load of mental stress that is taxing on our entire system. You are performing a great duty by telling folks of a place and group of people who can help to decompress, folks who can help us through our rough patches. Our mental health is just as important as our physical health, it is just as real. Thank you for pursuing a career in health care, and as a paramedic. You all see people in some of the roughest parts of life, it takes a special person to do this. Thank you.

[@marcusmanley2986]

Not a fan of the wheels, IMO it needs a Smoothie from Detroit Steel Wheels.

[@quantumss]

The wheels suck, the tires suck and the lowered thing suck. So it pretty much sucks. Mission accomplished.

[@runswithdogs6892]

Yes they are. Black is over. But if the owner likes them so what. Steelies with hubcaps and trim rings and a nice fat sidewall gets my vote that doesn't matter.

[@archeryhunter86-]

One thing I've noticed in every video is that sweet elk rack. Nice!

[@SeppoVataja]

I've been a volunteer firefighter just shy of 40 years. I agree a thousand percent with the mental health aspect of the field. It has challenged me as much or more than the technical parts of the challenges we face. I would never have been able to go forward without help. You are not in this alone. If you think you are you won't last. Thank you for your service. There is good coming from your efforts. Cheers from Canada

[@jameswiththegermanshepherd6628]

Way to go Janel. I am a retired paramedic after 34 years. Yes, it affects you more than you really know. It made me cold and hardhearted. I never sought any help but looking back I wish I had. Good luck…

[@douglasdarby8584]

I had forgotten what mad fab skills Rudy has... The center console is amazing..

[@bobbolieu9013]

I like the short angled face on the console as an area for buttons and switches. Centrally located, easily reached, yet out of the way of incidental bumping. The upper level appears to be a good height to serve as an arm rest. Cupholders on the lower level, out of the way of the shifter too. Cool console Rudy.

[@priusrepellent]

I need to make a center counsel for my 07’ Ram 3500, lower floor mount. This gives me some ideas where to start! Thanks!!! I just need two cup holders, and a fairly large storage spot, bc I switch seats from factory hard center counsel to factory soft center arm rest that flips up. This way my son can sleep in the truck with me in camping and hauling trips! I’ve got a customer bed built in the back seats for myself and the dog!!! Thanks again

[@mastat150]

I don’t mind the wheels but there’s definitely better choices out there. I think they’d look way better painted a bronze color. One nice thing is that’s an easy problem to remedy. If I was going to change anything it would be the interior. I’m not a fan of the racing seats. Some low back buckets or a bench would better suit the truck.

The truck is sweet but I have to be honest I don’t really care for the racing seats at all. If it were me I would look into TMI Products, they make awesome seats for those trucks or even go the route Chad’s Fab went with his Gonzo truck and use a rear bench from a newer crew cab.

[@jamesbigham9036]

Good morning I have a serious question if this is Kaulin's shouldn't he be involved when it comes to working on it? If it was my truck putting time in to working on the truck would be a top priority since it would be mine.

[@dposcuro]

1: Kaulin is working on it, when he has time to do so. I mean, he was there, in the video, remaking the crossmember for the fuel tank. 2: Kaulin is getting Rudi to do most of the fab work because Rudi has a fabrication shop for the purpose of making vehicles, which Kaulin doesn't have. Rudi has a few more years of welding and fabrication experience that Kaulin doesn't have. Kaulin is probably paying Rudi, because Kaulin is young, and has other demands in his life that he wants to do, as well has have the truck built as soon as possible.

[@tjshine7444]

Great job on the console. Once you mount a lid and install padding, you may find that it is uncomfortably high.

[@rawdyrider]

[@Ottothegreat7]

I don’t mind the wheels. You’ll get a million different opinions on them, I think something bronze or gold looks good when your doing a newer designer of wheel. Some Detroit steel wheels would look good too as others have said.

I love your work Rudy! The console, and the floor look amazing.

[@1944chevytruck]

Good job boyz and gurl!!

[@awo1fman]

I know appearances can be deceiving, but that axle looks a bit wimpy for the LS to me. But the truck, especially the rear, should be pretty light, so maybe the tires will break loose before there's enough twist from the LS to break anything. I really like where the truck is going. It's going to be a really sweet ride when you're done. The interior bits you're fabricating look awesome.

[@Bellboy40]

Since you asked about the wheels, those do not do anything for me. I would go for some Cragar polished aluminum or stainless wheels but that is just my preference. I'm not a fan of the slam look either, but since it is not my truck, it doesn't matter what I think. If that is what Kaulin wants, then that is how you should build it.
