@@khtractors 🤣👍 Be strong Man 💪🤣 and face the storm by bracing yourself very well into your truck, it always sunny after that as pass 🌞🤣 That is what makes life interesting is in it mon ami 🥴🤔🤣👍 Cheers 🍻
Drove a 2000 model 4700 for 18 years, tough truck. She us still in our fleet and still ready for work(will be 22 years old in July). Cannot beat a DT466E/DT466!
I agree, I now have 2 DT466 engines. One in this white truck and I recently bought a bus with one also. Probably the best medium duty engine ever built. Thanks for watching!
🤣🤣! She thought by the age of it I was getting a pile of junk, but after seeing it she lightened up a little. I’m at least sleeping back in the bed for now 😆! Thanks
I really like this one so far, the extra gears with the 2 speed really helps in our mountains. The DT466’s are dependable engines for sure! Thanks for watching!
It was so hard to see the Dodge leave. It had started to get pretty rusty and I wasn’t willing to invest the money into it for the repairs. This 4900 along with my S1654 will make a good combination! Thanks for watching!
Happy to see youve got this truck. You mentioned to be a while back about finding a 466, and what a clean truck youve got! Is the 5 speed transmission synchronized? Also do you have a class A ? Farm tags? Or just run it ( im not here to judge ). Someone down the road had a nice Freightliner FLC120 day cab up for sale. I would love to buy it but i think the house is going to take priority on this one lol! Looking forward to what comes next. Have a good one Ben.
It’s farm tags, you can drive up to 150 miles from home on them without a CDL under any weight class. The transmission is synchronized. Yes in your case definitely focus on the house first, that means more then any truck! Thanks for watching!
How's she goin'? That's a good looking truck. What fun eh, gearing it up the way you want it!!! I noticed when you were pulling on the bumper the weld on the left side seemed like it was broke. FYI!!! Looking forward to seeing the changes you are going to make on this rig!! Take care!!!
Going good, hope you are doing well! I’ve got the bumper fixed now, it’s in a later video. I’m making progress but still a few more things to do! Thanks for watching!
New subscriber here, I’m building a top kick truck kinda like your international, what’s the pump for that you want people to be able to try out? Is that a slab of counterweight behind the gooseneck ball?
The pump was a septic vacuum pump, I was able to sale it. Yes the thick steel is for weight, helps give a little better ride and adds traction. Good luck on your project! Send me pictures to my email if you would like once you get it finished, I’d like to see it. Thanks for watching!
That thing is an absolute beauty. I don't think I'll find one that nice. I hope this thing really works well for you long term. It's a great looking truck, but I do still like that old square hood too!
I’ve been well pleased so far! We paid more for this truck then what we had originally planned to on a truck. But it was one of a kind. I’ll go into more detail on the truck in another video. Appreciate you watching!
wished I had knew you were in the market for one , I just sold 2 96 dt466 7 speeds to just get them out of the way , used to be rollbacks , they both were still good trucks I sold the pair for 5k ...
@@khtractors nope they were mechanical , the one 96 I have left is as well , they went to the E motors mid year , mine even had the manual cable fuel shut downs ... I still have a 92 7.3 IDI ford super duty 19ft rollback that needs a new home kinda ugly , but a great running and driving truck hauls skid steers and mini excavators well , actually all it has hauled in the past 5 years as I didn't want to scratch up my new beds , I am open to trades ect I don't need it , and honestly it's really just in the way , if you have a use for it and want it I am 100% positive we can make it yours easily somehow , clean title ect , I am just across the line in TN , I am a close neighbor
If only there wasn’t copyright laws I could have played that song 😆! I’ve accomplished a lot on it and still have more to do! I need a Big J’s beans logo in the back window! Thanks for watching!
K&H Tractors and Trucks! Great looking rig. I’m sure you will put it to good use after having to sleep in it till the misses cools off. Just go buy something else and she’ll forget about that purchase 👍😂
It’s hard to find one in this good of shape. Zero rust. They range any where from $5000-$12000 depending on condition. I would focus more on condition then miles. Mine has 330,000 but was rebuilt once because of a liner leaking coolant. Thanks for watching
I already had the hitch placement figured out on the red truck so I just put it in the same spot on this one. It’s just slightly forward of the axle. Appreciate you watching!
It’s one I had, it is 1/2”. Thick with another 1/2” plate about 12” square welded on top in the center for the ball to bolt through both pieces. I welded 2” square tubing to each edge of that plate for reinforcement. I’ve not had any issues but going thicker wouldn’t hurt. Thanks
Great projects ahead Ben 👍🏻, the hitch plate did fit like a glove, just a little tap and it went in 👍🏻. That was a long driving day 😳. Have a great one Ben 🙂🙋🏼♂️👍🏻
If you back into something and bend the bumper 10 degrees you’ll only be able to pull it back 9 degrees. Murphy’s law of wrecking stuff 😂 Love the International!
