We Turned This Old Ford F-150 Into A Heavy Hauling Beast! Then It Completely Exploded...

[@jyharris]

Love these videos. Very entertaining.

Think the term is Jerry-Rigged, don't know if that is derogatory, like who hasn't used a pop or beer can for a hole in the exhaust leak, or wire coat hanger to hold fallen exhaust.

Old, cheap, reliable stuff is way more fun & badass than expesive, new, temperamental stuff. Love my '96 300 straight six with a 5 speed! 👍

[@arlofs]

The 300 L6 is one of the best engines ever made. Love mine too. Works beautifully with the MR5OD 5-speed transmission.

[@Trueno1600]

Really like these collabs with David with all the homemade/scratchbuilt stuff! Cheap but nice execution!

[@supersnot4]

Fun random fact: the radiator fan assembly from a 2008-2012 Ford Escape Hybrid is an absolute perfect fit for this radiator. It even comes with a built in resistor, so you can get high and low speed on one of the fans. Main reason for doing that swap is that Ford no longer makes the fan clutch, and all of the aftermarket ones are junk.

[@evanderosborne4531]

Adam Alvarez! Please contact me! I have a 1994 f-150 that my man left me in his will. Someone vandalized the steering column while I was sourcing a radiator.I did a lot of work myself. I don't trust shops. The mechanic we trusted is no longer able. The truck is awesome. Please, someone help me. I am a 63yr old lady.I desperately need to be able to use my truck.

Fun video! TFLClassics is outshadowing the rest of TFL channels!

[@kasinko]

Six Shooter content is best content! You three getting creative, going on adventures, and making stuff while having fun is genuinely the most fun car content that I've gotten to enjoy since Motortrend left youtube! I never would have thought that wood pallets could be used to make a quick and cheap flatbed..... I also never would have guessed that it could look that good :P It wasn't the most durable, but my guess is that the 4 posts weren't tied together enough and, as the truck frame flexed with the hay on top, the 4 posts just flexed too much independently of each other and ripped the outside one in half. In other words, your foundation flexed apart! Thanks for the smile, guys, and I hope that you have many more good times ahead!

[@chriskonrad3713]

The I-beam side skirts are the perfect finishing touch.

[@fgialcgorge7392]

I really love love these videos. Time for a new TFL channel. TFL Farm. David, Case, and Tommy if he can get there with out breaking down. Just Jerry rigging, showing equipment, build "The Ultimate 2wd Farm Truck" with an old straight 6 Ford. Then you could do the same with a 4x4 Diesel but it's gotta be old! Maybe drop a Detroit Diesel 4-53 in an old 1 ton or 3/4 ton. There's a lot of content to be had there with David and he is a super enjoyable, pleasant guy to watch. Very nice guy. You could build a budget side by side. My head is spinning with content ideas, I'm sure you guys could come up with great stuff and just read the comments. A farm truck battle with some old manual transmission trucks with base engines or Ford 300 or 360/390, Chevy 305 or 350, Dodge 360, "Cheap Farm Truck Challenge" and you can only use junkyard parts to build them up.

[@fgialcgorge7392]

An inline six shootout would be really fun to see too. Keep them stock then use 1500 on each to spruce up the power. Also, you could actually get into showing legitimate farming equipment, new or old. I'm not even a farmer. I just live in a cabin in the Cascade Mountains but I'm really enjoying these videos. Opens you up to some cool sponsorship opportunities as well.

[@RogerM88]

The tractor brands should build an hybrid between a light truck and a tractor. Like a compact Unimog. It could be a next hit on sales after the UTVs arrive to the markets.

[@samduran5180]

A few years ago I had a 2000 Silverado z71 and I would haul a side by side in the bed and tow another on a trailer with 2 dirt bikes so another 5000 or so in the trailer. I sold it with 385,000 miles.

Bad transmission modulator valve. It’s vacuum operated and if the diaphragm inside fails, it will cause transmission fluid to get sucked into the vacuum line and it will burn it out of the exhaust.

[@bowez9]

That model has E4OD which is electronically controlled, and has no vacuum valves. Most likely is a leaking cooler line or pan gasket.

He moved it with no radiator in it. That means transmission cooler line to the radiator was not connected at the time and just pumped trans fluid out.
