48Dodger Posted February 12, 2010 Report Posted February 12, 2010 Ok....I made a YOUTUBE account with the plan of bringing as much video information together concerning our trucks. Its for entertainment only, but maybe we could learn something too. Some of you have videos that are on photobucket or elsewhere, but with your permission (i'll send a pm) I'd like to post it on the Youtube account. I'm new to Youtube as far as a contributor, and wouldn't mind a pointer or two. Those of you who have videos on your own Youtube account, will find it on the favorites list (I think that's how it works).....So please, help me find your videos if its been out of circulation for awhile. If you want to make a video for the account, post it here on the forum or let me know where it is. Then let me know you want to add it to the Youtube account, and I'll take care of it. Hopfully this works, I look forward to any helpfully ideas and seeing some of you on camera!! 48D youtube: 194853DodgeTrucks http://www.youtube.com/user/194853DodgeTrucks Quote
48Dodger Posted February 18, 2010 Author Report Posted February 18, 2010 Finally figured out how to convert photobucket video so I can post it on youtube. I've been looking for everyone's videos and have found most. Any I've missed, please let me know. 48D Quote
1955 plymouth Posted February 18, 2010 Report Posted February 18, 2010 I will take a video today and let you know about it, I will post it on you-tube, perhaps you can merge it to your list as well. '52 B3B also will show the '48 International KB1 as well. Quote
41/53dodges Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 speaking of internationals, does anybody want a late 40's international for $500, it is kinda rusty if i remember right, but everythings there. Quote
1955 plymouth Posted February 19, 2010 Report Posted February 19, 2010 What year International? What model? I am sure you have seen some pics of the '48 KB1 Quote
48Dodger Posted February 22, 2010 Author Report Posted February 22, 2010 I will take a video today and let you know about it, I will post it on you-tube, perhaps you can merge it to your list as well. '52 B3B also will show the '48 International KB1 as well. That sounds great! let me know on this thread. I'm trying to find anything on our trucks so we can have a single place to look through. I loaded Merle's inner fender video (with his permission of course) and working on a few other ones too. 48D Quote
48Dodger Posted May 9, 2010 Author Report Posted May 9, 2010 Posted a new video. Its on how to remove the rear shackle, hope y'all like it. 48D Quote
Zeke1953 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Posted May 9, 2010 Just watched the new video. It's great! Answered a couple of questions I had about shackle removal. Thanks for taking the time to make it available to everyone. Zeke Quote
pflaming Posted May 9, 2010 Report Posted May 9, 2010 Needed something while waiting for a different head, the shackle video was timely and very helpful. Thank you. Quote
ssdodge51 Posted May 9, 2010 Report Posted May 9, 2010 I just recieved new rear shackle hangar brackets for my truck rebuild. The inside of the new bracket is threaded. Are the new shackles suppose to "thread" into the brackets as well as screw on to the shackle? BTW I like the music on the shackle removal video. Van Halen? Thanks Steve Quote
48Dodger Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Posted May 10, 2010 "Resistance" ......7th track on the 1990 album "Empire" by Queensryche. The bushings have what I call "rounded" threads on the outside and "sharp" threads on the inside. The bushing's rounded side and the frame mount, take the bulk of the grease. Put the shackle into the holes....then thread the bushings on. Try and keep everything even so your wheels track right. 48D Quote
ssdodge51 Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) The frame brackets I have are new ones with sharp threads on the inside. So....does the bushing screw into the brackets and then on to the shackle? My only question is does the bushing screw into the new bracket first? I may be making this way too complicated but I don't want to mess up the new costly brackets. Edited May 10, 2010 by ssdodge51 Quote
48Dodger Posted September 25, 2010 Author Report Posted September 25, 2010 I made a slide show video of our trip to Bonneville. The music matched what was going on in my mind during the whole ordeal. In others words random. This isn't a "how I built it" video....just a run down of my favorite moments over the last year. 48D http://www.youtube.com/user/194853DodgeTrucks?feature=mhum Quote
Don Coatney Posted September 26, 2010 Report Posted September 26, 2010 WOW! Brought back memories. I had forgotten how lonely it is going down the salt. Nobody but the driver, miles of salt, and speed. Calculating every decision you as the driver must make a thousand times over, before you bring her up to full speed. Gives me goose bumps to think about it. Thanks for taking the time to make and post this terrific slide show. Now I want to drive your truck on the salt as well as your race car. Quote
48Dodger Posted September 26, 2010 Author Report Posted September 26, 2010 You got it Don...anytime. 48D Quote
John Mathias Posted October 1, 2010 Report Posted October 1, 2010 Very well done, just signed on and started viewing. Have you done any posts/videos of the engine and mods done to run on the salt? I see the attention to detail on the frame and suspention, well done on the IRS by the way. Quote
