Desert Haul! Say Hello To Jackknife Motors New Fabricator!
Me myself i could less about some dumd dumb thinks about stuff every one thinks different 😊🎉
I am way late but; I used to be a truck driver, and I have made many long trips for my old construction work. I am going to guess 1½ hours, late than target time you have urinate and your going to get thirsty and want to stretch your legs. You determined, so I didn't add additional time, for lolligagging.
Guessing 19 hours home
I was looking on face book and saw a c50, then I was hooked. I want one so bad. I did not realize there was such a desire for them now.
You have a humongous shop, but it has no build order, it doesn't look to have any functionality....need a Nascar shop foreman to give you some pointers perhaps...
Just so happens you are my guy? Mr. NASCAR??
Ol’ Ricky is going to go full Dale up in here.
It’s Great 👍 To give back u should do this more. Great video Cole ✌️
Just curious🤔, but wouldn't it been easier to just use the whole rockwell axle and just cut the ends off and put the ford hubs on with custom axles and suspension. And Correct me if im wrong, but the f550 comes from the factory with the square tube big truck style rear end for the weight capacity. Where as the axle you showed at the beginning of the video was more for a f450 since they still use the cast iron center section with weld in axle tubes.
Initially we were going to use the M300 out of a 2017+ (these have a 4.5” round tube) We ended up going with a s110 which is pre 2017 (these do have square axle tubes). The square tube dimensions are different between the Rockwell and s110. It’s not like we could just sleeve one into the other and also the snouts are still round. The route we went allowed a .375 faceplate the we can mill flat, have proper pinion offset, self fixtured, went together really fast and it’s aesthetically pleasing. 450 and 550 have utilized the same axles throughout the years. In conclusion our intermediate is a s110/hybrid (square from a 15’ f550) our rear is a m300 (round from a 23’ f550)
When will we see another video on this build? Ive been waiting love this build. Great work jacknife crew
How’s the camper coming ? That axel is the absolute balls now everyone will be doing it. This 550 is gunna be insane
I hope it does well. The camper got put on the back burner for a bit but we are sourcing a transmission and a turbo right now to keep the project moving
Looks like we never get to see a project to the end
We’ve finished more than we haven’t. Still moving on it
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS well we don't see it I have my notifications on because I am not the only one who noticed because we still waiting on the your inlaws truck y'all was building to go to Alaska
Can't wait to see this rear setup complete but im also anxious to see the old Chevy finished too. I know, i know. Work before play
Definitely a balanced approach. Gotta work on stuff that brings money in sometimes:) haha
9:30 even if you do change the gear ratio, it just shows that there isn't going to be terrible wear anywhere else
Good to see it’s working. If it had issues with these gear it probably would again
Jimmy, now that I’ve retired I might need a van to drive around so I can go look at mud puddles and piles of rocks.
We have great rock piles around here
Where’s the camper?
Covering that soon
I’ve been waiting for a build like this .. hell yeah!! 👍
Thanks for watching! More content coming
I gotta tell ya. It's been very exciting being here from the very beginning, watching you build this from nothing. I was very curious on how well you would build and I am so very impressed. It's amazing. GREAT team. You know just how to get the right talent for the vision. Best of luck to you and all you guys there. You're rocking it.
Thanks for watching! We appreciate the people supporting the channel by watching and commenting when they can. Thanks
Nice build, which camera do you use for your videos?
Sony FX3, go pro, I phone, DJI drone
Turn down the music a notch or two..
Please!? Other than that, great episode!
I’m deaf so this is actually good feedback thanks
I really like the intermediate axle design you guys are going with! Definitely think that’ll do better than the other 6x6’s I’ve seen
Thanks Hunter! Can’t wait to test drive this
Running it essentially upside down may give you lubrication problems.
It’s not being run upside down. That are designed to be utilized as a top loader. There’s an upper oil bath built into the third member.
How is it upside down
Cool build guys.
Thanks for watching!! Stay tuned for more
3 months has come and gone with no OG truck camper for Alaska. Very sad.
100% sad.... We are sorting that out! Should have content coming on the C60 in one form or another. I've gotta keep it going but the shop is way too busy to work on it during hours. Trust me I'm figuring out how to keep it going.
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS I thought it was for the show, work always comes 1st
Yeah, I have been waiting for that build, it should be AWESOME! 👌👏👍
13min in . Was you using a lawnmower blade sharpener to clean the edges of that metal?
That reminds me I’ve got to sharpen mine today
A $100,000 add-on why?? More money than brains!!
You must be new to the utility truck industry. They are building a truck to fit a customer's needs. I worked in that industry for 14 years and what they are building is a medium- heavy duty utility truck. I've seen bigger 6x6s with 280" custom utility bodies that were upfitted with different kinds of capabilities.
Wouldn’t take a ton of money;)
Kole again doing a amazing job on the camera!
Showing how the 435 area code represents 🎉
Midway Wrangler for life!
This looks like it's going to be an epic build! I see you've got loads of new guys in the shop! 👍
Kyle is Aaron’s older brother. We are really happy to have him helping us
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS I thought they looked similar! What's happening with the motor home rebuild?
We had to focus on making money with some production work in the shop. Lining up a new transmission and turbo right now. Should see more soon
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS ah OK, that's completely fair. You can't create content if you haven't got a business 😅 I hope everything is going in the right direction now 👍
100% everything is good! We’ve definitely learned a lot this first year. Balance is everything
Wow, awesome work, can't wait to see the finished product.
Stay tuned!! We hope to get content out on this weekly
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS cool, I'm designing a 6x6 which I'm going to start building in acouple of months.
I’d love to see how you design it!
You guys haven't even finished the C10 yet. Maybe 1 at a time from start to finish would be a start
That’s fair haha
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS I thought you were supposed to go to Alaska in it? I really want to see it finished.
That's a spectacular result, guys 👍
Thanks for watching
My Dad has been doing Auto glass for 40yrs I wish you all would overhaul his Ram work truck I think you all could kill it and it would help my dad he's 63yrs old and has no retirement so if you could do that for him,me,us lol it would mean so much to me because my dad has been through hell right beside me and we've battled losing my mom and his wife of 40y r s to cancer and we have stayed together through it all because we knew we couldn't do it without each other but that's my story I hope this gets seen so I have a chance
Thanks for watching and commenting. Where do you guys live?!
What ever you guy's do it's going to be badass. Love the channel keep up the great work and stay safe guy's.
Seeing how that's a retired military truck... how about a military tribute build? Bring back the camouflage paint, some lift (front AND back), aggressive tires (no rubber bands), and maybe a custom flat bed. Make it a bad ass, functional truck that any vet would be proud to drive!
That sounds like a plan! I'd hate to say goodbye to this baby blue.
Build not going any further?
Waiting on a few parts
If home depot produced pimp my ride
Xzibit still the host?? I’d be happy to step down haha
Wow that's awesome. Great job!
Thank you so much 😀
Dam right really badass guys
Thanks Todd! We will be doing more of these
How much do you think it would cost to get a truck bed done by you guys??
Well that’s a question I’d need more information on.
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS 2010 f150 4x4 short bed
Damn, I thought that was something else in the thumbnail 🍑 🤣 I need glasses....
hold on... what did you think it was?
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORS I thought it was cutout of a thick chick sitting down or something 😂
Nice job guys
You guy's are awesome. Love the van and I know it's going to make Donnie's job so much easier. Loving the channel guy's keep doing what you do and stay safe. Thanks for the video.
Thanks again Jeff!
everybody just can’t wait to see detailed plumber van mods……not
Hahahaha! Painter… these are painter mods buddy. So much better
The floor space on that van is that a premium. The ramp should have gone on the ceiling!
That was awesome guy, superfund video 😀👍❤️❤️❤️❤️
Glad you enjoyed it
Bless you boys for helping a guy in need without even being asked. I'm sure the waterworks turned on after the camera turned off.
Donnie was way pumped on how everything turned out! He definitely cried on the way home
Not sure about taking the prescription part of the video????
Definitely not supporting the behavior. I said I’ll take one if you’ll take one…. I did not expect the camera man to go with it. I’m a man of my word and I learned a valuable lesson that day. It was Advil
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOFUCKINGRRRRRRAAAAAAHHHHHH way to go brother way to go , pay it forward
Thanks for watching Scott!
Wow u around salt lake city I know road around it cool 😊
Yes the main shop is on 5600 West
Camera guys finger nails painted blue..... um why???
He has daughters that paint his nails at night
@@JACKKNIFEMOTORSI was wondering the same but totally makes sense 😂
Man, I have to admit somebody doing is for a regular person.Just out of the blue really renews my face in humanity and especially you guys
Thanks for watching!! We will try and do this again
Hey Cole all the years with Sparks , an seeing what they do has rubbed off
