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

In this video we build our 1990 Ford F-150 a custom flat bed in under 30 minutes. David had some scrap wood laying around so we decided to see what we could make from the stuff in his yard! The result came out really cool, and then almost immediately failed as we raced it around our new course hauling nearly 1500 lbs of hay!

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.

I’ve used a left over fuel bulb from my outboard the siphon fuel. No fuelly aftertaste.

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.

That flatbed doesn't look half bad actually. I have seen worse driving on the road. This is a lovely channel and the happy yak ranch just yes.

Seen worse driving down the road I've seen A 1996 F150 with half a bed missing, an alignment to where it is practically driving sideways, cab Leaning downwards off to the rear right and a bent frame

[@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!
