Still one of my favorite builds you've done. I like the def tank located behind the fuel tanks. It would be nice if you could mount one between the frame rails for a cleaner look.
I just seen this truck sitting out front by the fence, bad to the bone! I think it looks better with the same size tanks and the def behind the fuel tank. Great job Steve!
Not really crazy about that color usually, but I’m coming around. I like the way this one is spec’ed out. Really like the lights in that configuration.👍
Awesome craftmanship!!! It looks damn good but why paint the rubber air rides in the front? Must have known it would crack if you do this kind of work. Great job!! Just curious why?! Black I think would have set it off!!
Beautiful truck. Thanks for sharing. I always enjoy your videos. What's the difference between a 2018 and 2019 Peterbilt 389? Hell, all the Peterbilts built in the last 4-5 years look the same in terms of looks and specs. I love Peterbilts, but never really understood the difference between certain years.
With dual leveling valves, they will act like the axle will have independent control on each side, so it will ride much better, and more control over bumps, and dips in the road.. A single valve system, controls all of the air bags, at the same time.. the ride can get mushy, and sloppy.. like the Volvo air ride front end, and can bounce you all over the road, meaning less steering control..
@@chrisgriffin5179 so they keep the truck level from side to side, not front to back? And are they only for the front axle or do they also control the rear?
As a former driver I get coming in off of the road and catching up on lost family time . I also heard a man say that once you get diesel fuel in your veins it nearly impossible to get it out. Also , selling Kw's after driving a Pete like his is like driving a Rolls Royce and selling Camaros. Not a bad car,but it's kind of weird.Anyway I like and enjoyed his travels.I too like many other wish Tim the very best.
Sorry,I didn't mean anything ill.I was just making a tease that's all.No disrespect meant in any way.I got the opportunity to drive a new KW for a while and it was great truck,nothing I can say bad about it.
Love your videos, but man you ALWAYS need to add LED headlights to these builds. It’s incomplete not to have LED everything and Paccar is missing the boat on this.
The only reason this engine outsells the Detroit is because it is offered in virtually every truck make these days, where as the Detroit can only be had in Freightliner Or a Western Star. If the DD15 engine was offered in a 389, I’d have bought one yesterday. Much better in terms of Fuel economy and Reliability.Although stock vs stock these Cummins pull better, a Good Tune would make a world of difference.
This big 80 inch cab in that Peter is begging for a transformation in to a truckers lounge or an XXL sleeper cab, the option that is fitted by Co,- is a waist of space,sorry to say it. Do not get me wrong -Its a great truck, she is a looker and a puller for sure, " gorgeous " unit. TH to Steve.
