In my area alot of farmers and oil field part changers use these boxes. Funny watching them reorganize their tools after driving on dirt roads for 10 minutes 😂
If I Put Fleetgaurd filters on my Cat C15. It quits running the next day. Every damn time it just gets chocked out after 1 day. So for the last several years I use Nothing but CAT filters.
I had something like it years ago. I had a 72 Chevy pickup that had the fuel tank relocated from behind the seat. Behind the seat had a triangular tool box laid out very similar. Best truck toolbox ever...
I saw a video (short) of a tech that uses 2 of the triangle tool box on a service truck to get better access to his tools. He was really sold on it and loved the way it worked for him.
I used to work there before they sold out china. Wish they would’ve kept Lavern’s original design. Super smart fella. Forgot more about welding than I will ever know. A true craftsman such as yourself.
I got one about 6 years ago to put in my truck. It has 170k of logging roads on it now and still keeps the water and dust out. I took a paint pen and marked all the metric stuff just so you know what row to be looking in. Love these boxes. I’ll get another when it comes time for a new pickup.
Just found your channel and I love your content. I used to work for a company out of SLC that used Western States when we were up around Pocatello, you guys all are amazing mechanics. But has anyone ever told you that you look and sound like Kyle Chandler from Friday Night Lights? (the coach) lol. Keep up the awesome videos
I like Montezuma I have considered getting them on more than one occasion, but didn’t think it would be really lasting with the amount of specialty tools and large tools as a fellow, heavy equipment mechanic I’d like to see you keep posting your progress on this just for the ideas also, what kind of Roll cart. Is it that you are setting it on it almost look like a Matco or a Cornwell
It's a great tool box I have one then been running it for years on the back of my truck FYI you can get it for half of the price I spent $350 at a farm store local to me around here called Atwoods
@@AdeptApe that the only way to mechanics ,what most ppl dont understand is the 30 min you spend looking for the tool ,it gives you time to think about the prob
I used to think that greasy hands was a mechanic, I wear gloves and clean my stuff before putting it away, or leave it on the bench until I Do clean it.@@AdeptApe
I have had one of the Montezuma Boxes for over 10 years and it is great to work out of. The first time I seen one was at a John Deere Dealership in Ohio about 25 years ago. The only problem I had with mine was the weight when loaded, not something easily moved from truck to truck with a forklift. Very high quality, the design has been refined over the years. Thanks for the videos.
We bolted one to a flat bed service truck that goes out into fields to work on equipment. Works great even bouncing across rough fields. Open the top and boooom…everything is right where it’s supposed to be!
The only thing missing in that tire fire is an LP tanker. She gone... FYI, super singles are great for those tire fires and yet I see LP tankers, gasoline tankers, and more equipped with those pathetic tires. I know of at least three guys who have been fried while transporting LP with super singles; all three fried in the cabs of those trucks.
Very similar to the custom box's NHRA top fuel teams use between rounds Their boxes are very specific set up for each side of the engine They only have the tools they need. They use a similar one for the clutch.(an Idea that i think would work with HDT) you could have a clutch/underside as well as a brakes maintenance. The top fuel teams use the same tools over and over as they have specific tasks so they don't need the selection we need They are also in a compound pit area so they don't need to be able to lock the tools from sticky fingers. But a very similar purpose i have used both and they are great for the job at hand very good for organizing and speed
Hey man, great video as usual. I was just curious to hear your opinion on something. I am trying to decide between two trucks in almost equal shape and miles. The only difference really is one has a 2008 c13 dual turbo and the other has a 2001 c-12 which engine would you choose? Thanks
Well a 2008 is probably an LEE C13 and I would stay away from that one. If it's a KCB serial number it's a good one. I'd go with the C12 over the LEE C13 any day of the week.
1st exposure was I had stopped on I15 to help someone with a flat they had one of theas (the bigger size) mounted on one side of the flat bed a bobcat welder on the other up agenst the rack ,he loved theas boxes holds 2 full sets of wrenchs. Turned out someone didn't give back his ratchet, so was a good thing I happened by doing the feel good thing and lendingwrench. This is gonna be my top Boxford the rollaway.
I once saw a diesel tech that had opened the side of his pick-up rear cab and it was a whole Monctezuma. The other side of the cab was spares and supplies. Nice set up.
Sweet setup and that saves a lot of room. Every time I see spin on filters with the slightest sign of someone using pliers they’re coming right off no question.
I've looked into those, but they're not so good in the shop, apparently. They're great on a pickup, and CAN be used in the shop, but not really that great. Perfect for transitioning between the service truck and the bay.
