[@brian7327]

Laurel & Hardy will never be dead as long as Mike and Aaron work together great vidg guys keep em up

[@seanpierce7673]

I was just having the same.thought !

[@TennesseeMtnMan]

More like Mutt & Jeff… lol. Mike is Mutt and Aaron is Jeff. If you’re not familiar with them … google them 👍😃.

[@c-v-n3322]

I'd go with The Three Stooges, but Matt was probably working away on his castle the day they made this video.

[@grilnam9945]

I’d do as far as the Marx brothers, but you would struggle to figure out who was Zeppo

[@DMAN10]

Abbot & Costello

[@johnwarren-649]

The two bolts need to 1/4 longer for the nylon nuts to work properly. Great work guys as always

[@stinky3toes209]

Drill a hole for a cotter pin.

[@CentralPlainsEnt]

Or green loctite would work. Also missed the dielectric grease on the electrical connections.

[@young11984]

I say red loctite would be a simple fix but notic😂d the nylocks werent on the threads too

[@SuperSrjones]

1.5 threads protruding to get past the taper

[@stevenkruse5746]

Yelp --- nylon. U saw that too...

[@williamdegnan4718]

Try spraying soapy water on the truck before applying vinyl graphics. It keeps them from sticking before you squeegee them down, avoiding wrinkles and allowing you to reposition slightly. I position the graphics and make a hinge out of blue painter's tape. Then I fold them up, strip the sheet that protects the adhesive. Then fold down into place and squeegee out any bubbles.

[@wprice100]

You are right, also great for installing window tint, I think they use distilled water.

[@ScotReeder]

Well Done DP and AARON. You all bantering is worth a comment on each video. Definitely keeping it non stagnant.

[@brianherron5400]

Aaron's face gets red when work is involved in drilling holes. Sunday morning humor watching you two.

[@flick22601]

You and your crew are the epitome of the class of workers that Mike Rowe is always honoring. People doing the dirtiest jobs and using humor to help them through it. I have to agree with him 100%.

[@Humorfunking]

Mike Rowe is a liberal arts major paid for by the biggest capitalist in the nation to encourage you to work for less and do harder thankless jobs. Mike Rowe is a POS.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@leer-winnobbeefarms2131]

Spell binding! My day isn't made, until I get to watch a "Dirt Perfect" video! I absolutely loved this one! Thanks; Mike, Aaron & Dennis! Lee PS: Can't wait to see the truck in service!

[@HellYeahImIrish]

As much as I like your making money videos, your spending money videos in the shop are my favorite.

[@geofffletcher840]

Bloody brilliant, laughing and smiling all the way through. Great job, well done guys.

[@thebear5454]

Simon says: "Let the games begin". I had a few white knuckle moments as Aaron was putting on those decals (since I worked in a sign shop doing many vehicles). LOL. Never quite seen it done like that before. The Mack is now ready to work & haul. Nice job guys.

[@tonydurnell7951]

Funny how you hardly notice the bad weather when you are enjoying yourself. With Officer Hoover and the four just men you could make a keystone cop cross Marx Bros video. I cant wait for Officer Hoover to notice the off side DOT etc on a skew. Great vid and it made my day a happy one thank you for sharing. All of you take care and stay safe.

[@hastingshayandtreefarm4402]

The antics of you 2 is a breath of fresh air for sure.

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol thanks

[@JerryLisaYoutube2012]

Glad you liked the hand cleaner. Thanks for the shout out guys! Really enjoying the videos, keep them coming :)

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks guys

[@ronniethorsen3458]

It's always entertaining to watch You and Mbts go at each other

[@andysprunt9058]

DP - Sir that was easily the funniest and greatest video you have made. MBTS is a legend! Can you imagine how boring and empty your life would be without MBTS. Take care and stay safe!

[@gregs9187]

Next time bubble level and a dry erase marker. Make a line below where the perfect is in the sticker. Use that as your level guide.

[@michaelhuhn90]

Job well done guy's! Shop days are so much fun with you and Aaron. Keep up the good work guy's!

[@jayrosenberg3646]

You guys are the best. Thank you for each and every video.

[@CMDSR]

Got it all Officer Hoover approved and read to go to work. Well done guys.

[@randydobson1863]

hello mike and aaron its is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks friends randy

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job putting the stickers on Aaron

[@randycarpenter2914]

I could watch you all day long. I enjoy the back and forth between you. It's good to have a fun side even on what is serious work. Now, off to work, you go. You make my day.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@reddog376]

Dirt Perfect we all know MBTS is not normal. He will do anything to sit or lay down on the job. At least he kept his clothes on. 😂

[@dansevern3291]

I once had two co-workers like you fellers, they had to do a lot of work, because the rest of us were so busy laughing at them we couldn't get anything done. Thanks for the laughs.

[@chrishelms1967]

The best Comedy Duo since Abbott and Costello

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

I enjoy work! . . . . I could watch it all day!😅😂 😂

[@damarkushammond8775]

Can't wait to see it with the straight pipes. I just know it's coming 😎😏

[@joycefuller9177]

I am amazed at the work you two accomplish in a day. Love the video.

[@jimhooker5241]

You need to get longer bolts for the Pindel hitch. With nylock nuts you need two threads thru the nylon.

[@joejohnson7097]

Tell man behind the scenes if you use soap water when you put on stickers it helps

[@Jimmyfisher121]

Man your shop video's just get funnier and funnier, Thank you Mike and Aaron for allowing us to look inside the crazy house, the truck looks first class, can't wait to see it on the job.

[@laceitup1]

"I like it!" Love the shop video's!!

[@garydillon3960]

Amazing job and very entertaining. God Bless.

[@johnkoehler5380]

Mr. Dirt Perfect I totally agree with on the pindel bolts being to short. Needs to be maybe a 1/2 inch longer.

[@robertwhite7083]

Love how you take care of your equipment. Take care of your equipment and it takes care of you. Nice work!!

[@oldsmokeeater7075]

Some how Y'all actually get projects done and done well! What fun for us to be brought along!

[@johnbingamon525]

Mike & Aaron you guys are awesome that's what makes job's go better when laughing and cracking up with each other , love watching you guys that's going to be a good looking truck you guys keep up the awesome work

[@pauldillinger2286]

You guys make any job seem fun. Love the way yall get along. The bolts on you hitch are to short. The threads are not going through the nuts. Guess i need to be there to watch both of you guys lol. As always another Dirt Perfect video with the man behind the scenes.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@jorrick66]

I always tape the vinyl to the surface, in the middle with the backing on, so I can get it level. Then peel the backing to the tape on one side and cut the backing off. Press that side from the middle out. Peel the other side of the backing off, and press it from the middle out. Works BEAUTIFULLY

[@kenhart6330]

Mike you can take Aaron anywhere, it's that you can't leave him behind. Apparently he only knows his way back to your place. His better half has to draw him a map to get back home. Glad to say you're the best duo on YT, so much so that I've told others about the comedy show.

[@everestyeti]

Dennis the straight man, to the Mike and Aaron comedy duo. 😂🤣 👍 Nice job, always good to make vehicles multi purpose. 🤗

[@jacobc5757]

Mr. Dirt -Aron’s job wasn’t so much the doing the job as it was the reaching the job to do the job! That was just as hard as the birds nest of wires that you had to unwind! 😂🤣😅😂🤣 But awesome set up so fer. Really nice truck and from experience with them. The Mack dump trucks are in my opinion king of the off pavement dump trucks!

[@jimskinner9234]

I am one of the ones that bought the folding pad from Northern Tool after seeing it on the video a while back. They were on close out and I don’t think they still have them. BTW, I have used it a few times and it’s pretty handy. Thanks Aaron!

[@P-J-W-777]

I’ve always used water with very little dawn dish soap in a spray bottle or spray a way glass cleaner when the other isn’t available and I’ve never had an issue putting stickers on and I put more stickers and graphics on than I care to remember. Never had problems with that method and I’ve always been able to install then without air bubbles. He should have used a tape line to get them level lol. On another note I’m betting that Mack is going to be a really good piece of equipment for you.

[@philipfleming3546]

We use Dawn soap mixed with some water. Feel your bolts should have been 3/4 inches longer so the threads extended all the way thru nylon in nuts. Safety

[@tdkrei]

I love how you two work together but I'm also amazed you get anything done! Keep on smiling.

[@robinredman5192]

Can you say, "married couple" banter....😅🤣😂. Brouhaha. Thanks for the Sunday entertainment 😁 John here, from thee back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.

[@markarmstrong2592]

Your videos are so entertaning the craic is awesome

[@kennysr.1054]

Dirt Perfect ! Stickers not so perfect ! Cool !

[@patrickcolahan7499]

Nice work. You two have way too much fun. Thanks for sharing, truly enjoy watching.

[@joshuahatfield1079]

Mr. Derp perfect. I got the perfect name for your white dump truck. Sergeant stubby. After the world war one hero dog

[@garymessina1609]

Great job great fun great video thanks Mike and Aron

[@stephentreadwell8436]

Great start to a rainy Sunday in Maine. Love to watch you two.

[@robertchaffee5662]

You two are a riot! 😂

[@Big.Ron1]

Too funny. Never a dull moment when you two are in the safe place.

[@greggbala6686]

DP now your playing to see if people are paying attention nice move Pepsi can on the tire! 😂😂😂

[@joeanonemouse]

What a great job hooking up your trailer air. Congrats to both of you. Shop days are never boring with you two guys. 😆🤣 You get the serious stuff done right and have a blast along the way. Thanks for another great video DP. 👍

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@scottbamasime4338]

Spray soapy water where you want the decal to go, then spray back of decal and apply. You'll be able to move it around before peeling front paper off.

[@buck3409]

Use tape as a level and positioner for getting labels in place

[@heatherlane9270]

Learnt the difference between a truck and tractor (sure was about time as just thought they were all trucks - or prime mover and trailer). Anyway great to see all is ready for work. Good training video - not decal attachment possibly :).

[@rickallen9382]

I enjoy the shop videos. Aaron is so comical

[@keithhuff3207]

You two absolutely crack me up. It feels like family (in a good way)!

[@digging_in_the_parks2238]

Wow, the shenanigans ran deep on this one. Had a good time watching today

[@coinstipatedtexan83]

that looks like a " Busted Knuckle " shirt and stickers.

[@terryrogers1025]

Nice job gentlemen, came out nice. More to putting a hitch on than meets the eye, as well as air for the trailer brakes. Thanks for the update, fun to watch.

[@ralphclark2711]

That was an outstanding video Steve, hope you do more like that, looking good !!

[@rudyrivera7426]

Y’all guys are something else!😅 such a wonderful and fun video to watch! Lucky to have good friends to work with! Thanks for sharing! 👌👍

[@carloskawasaki656]

Thank you ,another good job with aaron👍👍👍👍

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job welding Aaron

[@j81851]

Love these Granite Macks. We do HVAC training on vehicles and our major customers used these for roll off trucks in the garbage industry. These things are just the definition of a durable heavy truck! All the guys up the Atlantic seaboard in Maine, Delaware, Mass on down to NC love these things! They are a solid performer and last nearly forever!

[@retrodad6864]

The usual slapstick getting the job done guys. Entertaining to say the least. Thanks for sharing. 🇬🇧👍👍👍

[@2badger2]

Fun video! I enjoyed watching Chris's video showing off his new trailer like yours ... 👍👍👍

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Mike and Aaron truck looks great! Thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@needsaride15126]

Its always fun to watch when Aaron is in the video. Nice job on the Mack DP. Hoping you all have a great year ahead.

[@philstreeter9703]

Great video. You and Aaron make laugh the whole time.

[@adamclark1928]

I'm cry-laughing at the old married couple!!!

[@jandances1687]

Wow I needed a giggle, gee man I wish everyone I worked for made the day brighter as you do.. brilliant team all three of you,UK out..

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Nice job on the truck, always interesting and entertaining to watch you and Arron at work. Wishing you and your family the best.

[@graderprowilliams8260]

You guys are great. Awesome video.

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great job working on the dump truck guys

[@nigelhales874]

Great 👍 watching you guys again

[@johnnylindsey5808]

Good Job DP and GUYS.

[@thomasdesmond2248]

DP you need to get away from those crimp butt connectors. They make solder shrink connectors. They are far superior. Get some and try them. Then try and pull the wires apart. A butt connector can be pulled apart pretty easily. They also don't keep dirt and water out. God bless

[@dennis2376]

Thank you and have a wonderful week.

[@donaldhederer2038]

Use painter tape and a level to get level off bottom of door.

[@norton2654]

Thanks for sharing fellas

[@joecallahan3379]

Man what a crew, definitely entertaining, you always ,"Gitt'er Done".

[@NiklasNorlen]

As always, great content, great video

[@allandebuff1416]

The easiest way to apply stickers is to hinge them. Tap them in place only on the top edge then flip the sticker up and peel off the backing. Then flip it back down and it will lay exactly where you had it hanging there by the tape on the top. Nice and straight. Also use water in a spray bottle with a few drops of soap in it.

[@wirenut003]

You two are like watching a comedy show, laughing my a** off watching you guys go at it. Mike the truck is really nice and you picked the Mack good choice because you can fix it well.🤣🤣🤣

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Mr Dirt Perfect and Aaron

[@rugerfarming5387]

That should make a nice dump truck for years to come. Well done.

[@johntolbert4566]

i think you should put a cover on the back of the new hitch plate to protect the lights and wiring from tire slining rocks and mud at them.

[@parrychapman7703]

As far as I can see, there's only two things I can spot that the new Mack still needs. First is your signature diamond stack(s). Got to hear it talk! Second, it needs a name! Until it is dubbed with an official title, I have affectionately been calling it Edgar. Don't know why. Inside my little head, it just seems to fit. Anyway, another great video! Always enjoy watching you guys. Oh, while I'm thinking about it, don't forget to spay or neuter your new pets....cause it was raining cats and dogs there for a bit!

[@johnelliott6738]

In a world FILLED with so many wrongs, you guys are RIGHT. Laughter IS the Best Medicine!!

[@allensharlow7763]

Looks great Gentlemen

[@davidwatsonii9469]

FUNNY LOOKIN DRILL PRESS

[@keithk8698]

The hitch is a little crooked. But I know you was looking for someone to comment I’m that someone 🙋🏻‍♂️😂. With Aaron around videos are on a new level of funny. Thanks for hilarious video! 😂

[@Metalheavenjockeolsson3653]

Nice work and a great video..😊😊
