We made a big mistake and found an even bigger nasty problem on a M1070 Oshkosh HET 8x8 💩

We got in a little deep on this one and decided to bring you guys along. Sometimes its the simple things you need to look at first but anyway we got it figured out. Let us know if you want to see more military truck action!

Mason comes across as a great youngster with the right attitude, temperament and keen to learn. IMO these qualities are rare in young people. I was going to say you're lucky to have him but maybe you should take the credit for his development. Anyway well done.

[@keeanmorishita8457]

I've actually really enjoyed you guys testing out all the Harbor Freight tools. Makes the whole job feel more down to earth rather than some tool fashion show

[@TruckerChick]

What people don't realize about "American" made products is that most of them have a lot of foreign parts on them. Even American made trucks/cars have TONS of Chinese components. I think it's good to invest small when starting and move up from there. Thanks for showing folks how to do that.

[@WorldPowerLabs]

My Ford truck was made in the late 1990s, and while the engine was made in Canada, probably 80 percent of the other components and assemblies were manufactured in Mexico.

[@alanbierhoff6831]

Clint has to be the best one handed mechanic in Indiana 😆 I hope Mason appreciates how lucky he is to be learning from a true master. I think the most important thing he’s learning, is to think 😊

[@Histandard2011]

I also hope Clint knows how lucky he is to have 2 sons that are interested in what he does for a living. Most often today if what the kid is doing is not connected to a smart phone they are not interested.

[@jameslindley924]

😆

[@godbeesmith]

My question is who would buy this thing and for what would they use it for. What purpose might be the best question.

[@wes11bravo]

@@godbeesmith - Yes. Hahaha, the wiseassed reply indicates my belief that most fans of the channel, if they could, would have one of these HETs just because they're cool. Seriously, I've seen them repurposed with a flatbed for rough or no-road hauling, at least several have put big commo/van bodies on the back for overlanding/bugout vehicles, or even just exactly what the Army uses them for - hauling a D8 to the job site on a trailer.

[@kenmazer9481]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@pettyfogger2305]

Excellent content, Clint! Sometimes those head-scratching, butt-kicking, goofy one off glitches are the best for content. It is good to see Mason spreading his wings a bit; even with a fairly approachable boss like you, between the Dreaded Camera and voicing opinions to the boss can give Newbies fits. It appears that Mason is coming along into his own. Now if he only had some sausage fingers or a hyper festive fetish for, say, 4th of July or Thanksgiving... .😊

[@csnelling4]

Thanks Clint, 👌👍🍺🥤😊

[@davidhemann1009]

I think it's very nice of you to give those tools away. Some people just have to make an ass out of themselves. No matter what you do. Keep up the good work.

[@joeyw690]

Its only been 6 minutes and ive watched this video 4 times. Certified C&C equipment classic

[@TomLongusa]

Clint…you’re spot on about the haters. Once they flame up & unsub… You hardly even notice them anymore.👍😎

[@michaelbenke3557]

Good explanation on the value of the tools to a young mechanic! I really don’t think about the cost for a young newbie mechanic.

[@danjohnson8170]

I love that you show the entire troubleshooting process: rabbit holes, dead ends…there’s something to learn in every false lead. Videos like this help give me the patience to run down mystery problems on my own equipment, and to take the time to do it correctly. Thank you.

[@davehillier4827]

It amazing how you know so much about so many different rigs and putting your guys in the rite direction

[@TheMilwaukieDan]

Rite???😂😂😂 or Right???? Sorry I have fat fingers and a small phone key pad as well.

[@oemytech]

Clint, when my grandson got out of the Marine Corps he needed some tools to get started in his new job. So, his Dad and Grandpa went Harbor Freight and brought him abot $400 worth of tools. Now 4 years later he has replaced most of them and sold his starer set to a new mechanic in the shop.

[@scottlee1211]

Hey Clint, Someone said this about a critic…”any fool can criticize, condemn and complain and most fools do”!! - Ben Franklin! I think it’s a hell of a giveaway, the real mechanic receiving them will be tickled to death!! Thanks for the video!

[@wes11bravo]

Scottlee - definitely! I hope you entered the contest too, brother. Can't have too many tools. If nothing else, the hand tools should be decently long lasting. HF sockets and wrenches are made in Taiwan. Actually, the vast majority of sockets sold by anyone are made in Taiwan!

[@C_CEQUIPMENT]

Thanks

[@caesar1295]

What does it matter if some or all of the tools have some wear on them there FREE to who ever wins them! Great job Clint, Mason’s going to make a good mechanic my hats off to you for teaching the younger generation your skills I’ve know some people who won’t teach because they think only themselves should know things and everyone should beg them for information. I’ve always thought those were some lousy individuals.

[@Z-Bart]

The thing about haters is they're gonna hate. Once we realize that and distance ourselves from them, life is better.

[@dansevern3291]

Well, there's always someone who'd complain about a free BBQ.

[@wes11bravo]

"This free beer ain't hardly even cold..."

[@barrybickle7992]

Hope the tools hold up. 70 years ago my Dad’s advice was, by quality tools, they will last a life time. He was right, hope Harbor Freight tools last.

[@nicke1903]

Depends on how much you use something really, the home gamer won't get the utility out of a $60 ratchet vs $20 ratchet, if you use it daily then there's a argument for it.

[@wes11bravo]

Barry - your dad's advice is definitely sound. I have my doubts about the electric tools holding up to professional every day use but who knows? I think what Clint was getting at is that for someone starting out, HF might be a workable option. But they'd be a means to an end - definitely should be replaced over time. On the other hand, the wisdom your dad passed along to you of "buy once, cry once" is a good rule that kinda negates everything I just wrote, haha.

[@wes11bravo]

​@@nicke1903- South Main Auto used a few Harbor Freight 1/2 drive impact guns at his garage as a test. They all quit working and he sent them to AvE who did a post mortem. The internal hammer and anvil (the parts that make the impact to break loose lug nuts, etc) was a powdered metal part instead of a forging and wore out when used hard every day. If HF cuts corners on the most important parts, all the other pieces of the impact gun are probably pretty junky too.

[@nicke1903]

@@wes11bravo exactly, you just throw on some lawnmower blades, tighten up a bolt or 2 they'll get good utility out of it, the Harbor Freight here would take back a dirty diaper so returns seem easy enough. I get it, there's thing's I use a lot that I just simply don't compromise on, but some ppl just use something 7 times a year and be done with it... That's Harbor Freight's niche market.

[@barrybickle7992]

@@wes11bravo I agree with what you said. IF YOU CAN AFFORD IT, buy quality but HF will get you started

[@FRRitter]

Don't listen to the 'haters' Clint, we think the world of you, your operation...and your always interesting videos! We appreciate your taking us along.

MASON IS A GOOD HAND, HE HAS GOOD INPUT AND WANTS TO LEARN. YOU ARE A GOOD TEACHER TO LEARN FROM, IS MASON FAMILY.

Keep the big trucks coming

[@johnnybgoode6466]

Must admit those Osh Kosh trucks are awesome !!! The tools appear to be standing up to your usage so far ... time will tell but somebody will be pleased to get it.

Thx for taking us along!

Well done guys tenacity pays off

[@jred4421]

Clint, for me, your videos are never boring, so just keep on truckin...You've got a great crew as well, and having your sons working by your side is something special. You mentoring them is huge benefit and will think of the times spent together their entire life as they turn those wrenches. With the haters, no one can please everyone. Keep up with the great work!

[@ringstinga]

Great video again ! Love watching the detective work trying to solve these problems you come across. Mason is one lucky young man having good teachers to learn him his trade and he certainly seems like a good hard worker. Thanks for taking the time to film it all for us.

[@toddherbrand4507]

Not gonna miss a single hater I think what you are doing with the tools is awesome thank you

[@waldo3023]

I'm glad to see young Man like Mason working and learning. I think he found a good place to work.

[@lastborn8s]

Wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your thoughtful response and demeanor… the Competitive Advantage of the USA … is design engineering and innovation… the sooner we support and develop that advantage the more productive our value added industries will become… such as tooling and production… it’s a global economy… we need to adapt and overcome this homer mentality and actually be global leaders … Keep up the good work C&C … well done

[@C.A.Swede.]

Clint has to be one of the most decent employers around, seems to have such a pleasant personality and zero need to prove he knows a lot even though it’s evident .. he does.

[@moman0166]

Williams tools are very expensive and pretty close to the steel that Snap On uses. Just for info Snap On Tool Co uses only virgin high carbon steel which I thought steel was steel but the steel used on Snap On tools is not recycled steel and when a dealer turns in his broken warranty tools they go back to the factory and are buried in a big trench. As a dealer back in the 80’s I had to go out to the Snap On grave yard to see it happening with my own eyes and sure enough there was a big backhoe digging a new trench and they were dumping some broken tools. I couldn’t see why they didn’t scrap the steel but they said it was because of liability. I didn’t really buy that but they stuck to the story.

[@ryanshadders750]

Also I believe the harbor freight tools have a lifetime warranty that all you have to do is take it back to the store and they'll replace it no questions asked. I tried to buy american made as much as possible but as an electrician klein tools don't even much of warranty today. That truck is so cool!

[@arthurbiringer5676]

Great job and resuscitation! Another M1070 lives to see another day! Just gotta love that screaming Detroit!

[@garyflint1793]

Still need the trailer and the TANK to haul around!

[@garyflint1793]

And if you can’t get a tank then get a caterpillar D11 and we’ll turn it into a KillDozer. And then we’ll have lots of fun

[@joshuamerritt2014]

No matter what you do there will always be those haters out there that want to say stupid things...heck i bet if you had a chicken that would lay golden eggs and you wanted to give one away they would have something to say bc it would have chicken poop on it..Keep up the great videos and teaching the young boys how to work on the equipment and those huge trucks bc then they will be able to do it on their own one day...

It absolutely amazes me how much damage mice (rodents) can cause in this equipment sitting around for years. Watching your videos and Matt from Diesel Creek, he deals with much older equipment at times and he calls them mousedominiums. Proud of Mason for the great young man he is but he has a wonderful teacher. Clint you are spot on with the tool give-a-way and glad the haters have thousands of dollars to spend on tools while us common folk just fix things. Love this channel and all the great work you do and the whole crew. Absolute joy to watch.
