Chad I did this on one of my trucks a lot of the trucks in the 70 s and 80 s had cupped pivots for the tailgate you can weld a washer inside your lower pipe so the washer contacts the face of the cupped pivot so you don’t have side to side movement take one of the cupped pivots and cut two sides off weld some flat stock on each side you cut off notch the bottom of one side of the lower pipe to fit the pivot mount the pivot that you modified at a 45 degree angle that way you can sit the tailgate on the full pivot and then lower the notched side onto the modified pivot that way the tailgate can be removed by holding it at a 45 degree angle and lift the end off of the modified side

@fredselbman3319 Год назад

Out of all of the great fabrications that Chad has done, this build & the Bugatti are probably my favorites!

@ShopKatIndustries Год назад

LOVE LOVE LOVE this truck so much, it looks so damn perfect!

@Ralphie_baby Год назад

Amazing!

@BoydHenry-dq1xb Год назад

Chad, an old trick you could have used on the bolts that were holding the nuts in place is to put Milk of Magnesia on them and let it dry. It works great so you don't get weld spatter.

@blakelow6044 Год назад

Hey the Chad..Love the show..get yourself and extension for those step bits and you'll no longer be drilling at an angle..New fan from Okanagan BC ..cheers Blake

@perriem Год назад

a couple of bullet hinges would have been perfect and so easy.

@parheidenborn3854 Год назад

👍👍

@davidschulze1133 Год назад

Like that u got it Chad 🤙

@williamcummings6562 Год назад

No taps in a metal shop? They sure come in handy now and then

@timkruth4701 Год назад

Could just weld a washer around that oblong hole on the outside. Do it on both sides to make it look the same

@princesschristiansfarm Год назад

Never understood the negative comments left on this channel. There's absolutely no where at all where you can literally watch a man build an entire vehicle from scratch live. You can see teams or crews all doing it on shows but never anything like this. I've seen people post crap so many times, but jealousy is just out there I guess. Everyone here is watching this being built while the builder shows you how to do it yourself without a bunch of professional tools. Been watching this channel for ages now, no intention of stopping either. Chad's one of only 2 car builders I'd ever want to buy a car from. This build is absolutely stunning. I'd clear coat it instead of painting it.

@garrybernardin9719 Год назад

Negativity and jealousy go hand in hand. Chad should take these comments as complements. They usually don’t have anything constructive to add. Just criticism. Small minds. .

Always fun to watch you guys Chad & Jolene . I´m an retired blacksmith and welder from Iceland and I learn alot from you and its so much fun to see how other do their things compare what I used to do . I wish there would have been Y.T in the days when I was learning . My best teachers were the old guys you worked with but many of them did not want new things around them like MIG and TIG and Argon . I was one of the first pro MIG welder in Iceland . We had ESAB machines great tools from Sweden . It´s good to know how things used to be done in the days but you have to be open for new things and how others do their things . Much respect and thank you both for sharing what you are doing and building ... Peace and love ♥

@Earlydoors272 Год назад

What an amazing country you live in! I was blown away by it when I went with my wife 4 years ago. Absolutely stunningly beautiful! 🌋

@davehunt4031 Год назад

And there lays the proof in the pudding ..... right on Christmas too ........ what an incredible truck you have made Chad ......... and without Jolene I would never have seen this amazing happening ........ you 2 are the BEST. ! i Just love your show.

@kevinmcleod3741 Год назад

Yes no longer a car but a classy little truck ! Just look at the craftsmanship that went into it well done Chad. Running boards mirrors etc left to do but it's looking awesome ! Thumbs-up JOLENE FOR ALL THE VEDIO and hard work you do ! Great truck team Hiltz !

@johnverrill7360 Год назад

A professional can paint himself into a corner and always have an escape, Chad you are a professional! Thanks for the idea for cleaning out the threads Jolene!

@mike-tl3is Год назад

I’m really starting to think Jolene has a bigger part in building this truck then we think I think she is the real mastermind behind this 👍

@jazzking99 Год назад

she's definitely no dummy.

@willhorting5317 Год назад

@Mike Raffphone what is that supposed to mean?

@willhorting5317 Год назад

@Mike Raffphone I am a "dummy" because I questioned why you said that "she is shaved"? How does THAT make me a "dummy"?

@garybarry4446 Год назад

This was alot of work but you got it figured out like always

@robertdehaes7572 Год назад

Many times my comment don't go through.

@williamdahlen1654 Год назад

Hello Chad &Jolene. I hope that you both have a great day today. The truck is looking great. Keep up the outstanding work.

@Frontireadventures Год назад

Chad my friend...that is one fine piece of work. As you said..it's not the shop. Well done.

@waynebeaman5328 Год назад

Detailed camera work helps to see what Chad is doing.

@mikeevans3569 Год назад

I have to be honest. When I first started watching your channel I had reservations about your work. I've been in a car biz for 50 years.. this build I think is the absolute best you've ever done!!! You have so much vision and work with scraps... You are a visionary genius!!!!!!!!!! And you have great support from your wife Jolene. She is wonderful!!!!!!!!

@jpeknowbody3649 Год назад

same here, He is amazing,at first I was to hung up with my way of doing things the past 25 years in the body business. He has opened my eyes also. Love these guys.

@jpeknowbody3649 Год назад

@ScoobyDoo no, Did Chad build it?

@Bikeops2021 Год назад

They're not actually married just yet.

@willhorting5317 Год назад

@ScoobyDoo I have seen images of some, online.

@williambuhrer3524 Год назад

What is going to keep the bolt from working it's way out of the nut in the tailgate since it can't really be tightened? Love the truck!!!

@b.a.d2249 Год назад

I'm just a house painter watching a master car and truck builder and learning things that I will never need to use lol 😂

@rocketfarm5352 Год назад

Wow the master of metal converted a car to truck in what a month. All you haters shut up watch and learn nobody moves this fast truly amazing

@ronbrent3272 Год назад

That truck is the best i love it thank you Chad & Jolene

@williamcummings6562 Год назад

That bed is so simple it’s beautiful !

@maxyearwood1085 Год назад

The early trucks had brackets that bolted to the body to hinge the gate. You just put the gate pins into the brackets on each side and then bolted the assembly to the truck. All gaps and free movement were built in. The gates just used tabs on the top that let them be attached with hooks attached to chains. To lower the gate, you removed the hooks and chains kept the gate from going all the way down when open.

@MrMrsedz Год назад

Going to have to trim that angle iron bottom edge Chadly ..so the tailgate can swing down ..

@noponder Год назад

I like how you did the tailgate. If it was me, I would make it so the tailgate flopped all the way down and out of the way. That way it would be easier to get things in and out of the truck bed.

@danielplummer6385 Год назад

Alot goes into building your own tailgate, especially when it comes time to attach it and make it function properly, it would probably have takenme all day to figure it out. Great work as always Chad & Jolene! The tailgate probably won't get used a lot otherwise I would be concerned that over time the hinge bolts would turn with the gate and back out.

@jamespilbeam209 Год назад

That's why they make locktight products

@ScottSherrington Год назад

Hey Chad, a trick for helping to stop weld sticking to something that you don't want it to, is to coat it in cheap cooking spray . It works a treat, and smells like chips!

@alanwhitehurst2576 Год назад

Just a suggestion the 8th plate bracket would it be better vertical instead of maybe have the chain on the inside of the bed, amazing work again Chad. I love it being live it show's us how to get around boo boo's✌🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

@Ralphie_baby Год назад

Amazing!!!!

@maxmeyers5164 Год назад

Awesome! You can use large electrical shrink tubing over the tailgate chains if you like. It helps with chain noise, protects paint and looks great! Keep up the great work. Amazing!

@johnmacmillan2766 Год назад

Great tip thanks I’ve used bicycle tire tube in the passed and just taped the ends, it worked just fine but was never overly happy with the way it looked I’m going to try the shrink wrap! Thanks

@keenejunk697 Год назад

Great idea

@rodger337 Год назад

Had an older fellow that used to pick me up in an old truck like this. We'd run errands and go to the dump. His name was Elmer. 70's era.

@bobmcclintock8080 Год назад

This build is by far my favorite, you two are doing a fantastic job and a terrific show. Ontario fan

@glenrevis6455 Год назад

Suggestion the piping you used at the top of each fender where you have the hole on each side just above your tailgate the hole that is there on the end of the pipe how about an LED blinker light on each side would look badass and definitely different just a suggestion I'm sure you won't use it but I thought it would be a good idea, I still think you are a fantastic visionary whatever you do I'm sure it will look fantastic,

@ate-updesigns9186 Год назад

You should put HILTZ in big letters from square stock on the tailgate..since it is a HILTZ custom..just an amazing looking truck..cya tomorrow Chad and jolene

@dazajbm Год назад

Use a shoulder bolt for the tailgate hinge. It will provide a smooth hard surface to pivot on, and can be fully tightened against the welded nut.

@patmcgaha8120 Год назад

Chad & Jolene> I most often watch your productions on tv and thus not able to comment. Just want y'all to know how much I enjoy your videos. I love your concept! It's like attending a technical college. Educational and entertaining. Pat from Florida.

@karsbkool Год назад

Chad does it fast, he does it good, and makes the don't-actually-know-that-much wannabes troll him. Highly entertaining on multiple levels...

@closetpicker Год назад

Chad, here's a tip for welding up nuts. I keep a collection of brass bolts and screws in most common sizes. When I weld the nut to whatever I'm welding it to, the brass bolt comes out readily because weld/spatter doesn't stick to it. Simple, quick, and clean threads afterward. Look for them in plumbing sections at the hardware store, and save any that you come across by blind luck... Love this build!!

@SkullDivisioN564 Год назад

I hardly comment,but this build is one of the best I've seen on BadChads channel, Awesome Fabricating Chad & Brilliant Filming Joelene.

@raymondruiz1843 Год назад

Hi there! Mr. Chad, Happy Holidays! I've been watching your work on that truck and your painting on cars, it's fantastic!. I learned how to work with Single Stage painting for future projects painting on electric Guitars. Only got 1 sugestion, get a multiple extention to plug all your electrical tools. Keep on with your excelente Work, God bless you and your Wife, Raymond from Puerto Rico

@zerohour5747 Год назад

Awesome job man. 👍

@GeorgeWagner-dv3fe Год назад

I don't know how all Chad's ideas work. My wouldn't my project would be in the junk yard. Good Job all the time

@alwayswatching4677 Год назад

That's an awesome looking truck

@guyman2134 Год назад

Am I missing something? What's going to keep those two screws he used as hinge pins from vibrating and backing out? I'm assuming he wants to keep the gate removable

@bigcountrysgarage2.030 Год назад

Now I understand why he's called Bad Chad he customizes anything in a week not months or years. He's his own assembly line.

@vwcoco Год назад

Awesome as always Chad. Next time try a little oil to chase the threads 👍Also nice to have a tap and dye set in tool box

@davidrstaggs4243 Год назад

CHAD & JOLENE, WOW, WHAT A MAGICAL BUILD. CHAD THIS IS ONE OF YOUR BEST! GREAT JOB!!!!

@dean4817 Год назад

Merry Christmas.from Australia.keep it coming chad and Joelene 💓

@brettfox6816 Год назад

Drivers side U picked it up off the washer to get the bolt in. The pass side U had to kick the washer out. One up / One down!

@davidhindman8499 Год назад

Awesome, Chad, you are a doer, the car shows are more about teams, and money spent. The are talkers.

@tomclaes450 Год назад

Great job chad SUPER Nice and cool truck👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

@jeffreycrossin427 Год назад

Question Chad. If it's a screw that the gate is going to be pivoting on will the screw back out?

@phillipragsdale3382 Год назад

Amazing camera work Jolene, especially the TIGHT close ups. Wonderful looking pickup, its a keeper.

@donaldjordan8989 Год назад

Your outstanding truck deserves a rebuilt flathead V8 with 3 deuces.

@davidsimpkin1213 Год назад

A little tinkering around and voila that how it’s done!! Well done guys 👍🇨🇦

@jimkemplin9079 Год назад

A spring loaded bolt on one end and a rod on the other would have worked very simple and you would be able to push the spring loaded rod in with a screwdriver and release the tailgate

@larrychristian7239 Год назад

Chad, when ya drill metal, my daddy always told me to drill slow. Wood fast, metal slow. Ya don't wear out yer bits as fast.

@HomesteadingTheHardLife Год назад

Nice work on the truck build..

@rayogrady4349 Год назад

Your the best jolene. Chad, a few weeks ago you would never know this ride was a sedan. Outstanding transformation.

@waynespears5664 Год назад

That tail gate looks GREAT Chad,WOW.................................................................Fort Worth,Tx.............United States

@dannychiguina3962 Год назад

Great 👍 job guys Beautiful Mopar I appreciate all your Tips/Tricks

@jamesmorris7074 Год назад

Love the build but maybe change the tailgate hinge.

@GTP427cobra Год назад

Chad is a master in car building, and I love the way tells how he is doing something he makes it look so easy

@grantjohnson1474 Год назад

You are Gene Winfield Bill Hines George Barris all in one

@mathewtangbakken882 Год назад

I suggest neoprene washers for the gap between the tailgate and the bed body, for those carriage screws

@Tanman-lk1hk Год назад

Details take time.. like you mentioned. Just roll with it. Fix any mistakes later.

@VintRestGarage Год назад

Nice tap idea with that bolt. All things considered in an hour, fantastic accomplishment. Gonna be like the old school tailgates. Dig it

@johnpayne9515 Год назад

!!!***Hey Chad… Here’s an idea***!!! On your tailgate chain, use some 1”-3/4” heat shrink (the kind you’d use for wiring) … cut it to length then pull the chain through the heat shrink. Then use a heat gun and shrink the heat shrink to the chain. It’ll save your paint and it gives your chain a professional finished look! … not to mention, it won’t make a horrible racket going down the road! ***^^^***^^^****^****^^^***^^^*** ^^ ^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^ ^ ^ ^ ^

@josemena9118 Год назад

Wow that truck It's coming along very beautiful can't wait till it get done

@thedude8046 Год назад

That looks awesome man! 👌👍👍

@mikepandelos9090 Год назад

Elevated metal want to tailgate with bad Chad on it because he made the truck should be a bad Chad truck

@pigs607 Год назад

get it done then drive it over to the people you bought it from and say how you like the 4 door now hahaha

@joeswartz1843 Год назад

Master craftsman his work is perfect and beautiful!!!

@jackman6256 Год назад

Every truck has name on tail gate you Need to put build by Chad

@shaungreen3949 Год назад

I would personally put the chains on the inside of the tailgate and connect them to the inner side fenders but that just me 😂

@johnlenoir1023 Год назад

Yeah it's a very cool looking car truck definitely going to be one of a kind

@gregoryh4601 Год назад

Awesome work Truck looking Good. Thanks for the Video

@craigallan6229 Год назад

Looking absolutely amazing chad keep it up

@DoctorHayduke Год назад

I wonder how hard it would be to fab some hinges out of flat stock, pipe, and solid rod. Now I want to try, so thanks for that!

@LaughingTerry Год назад

Dif (Rat Rods for Africa) makes very cool looking hinges like that. He then adds another piece of strap and shapes it so it really looks awesome.

@garrybernardin9719 Год назад

My 38 pickup has a system very much like that.

@tuat.mvpformallybigd.2635 Год назад

This has been a great project. It turned out great.

@jonoffensend7519 Год назад

This is one of my favorite builds, it is to bad that the average person seeing it would have no idea of the talent it takes to build these projects👍🎩

@BrianSmart1959 Год назад

You went a totally different direction with that tailgate than I was expecting. I figured the point of using the pipe on the bottom was to use that as the pivot over some short pieces of pipe welded to the inside of the bed. Then the tailgate would just drop over the pivots. But hey, you got it done your way in the end. Good on ya.

@davidfleisher4420 Год назад

Chad, I am amazed at the way you draw your lines on metal. So straight and even. You are quite a Craftman! Truck looks so COOL..

@paulpaul5606 Год назад
