On this episode of Make It Kustom, I introduce a new Build to the shop. The Make It Kustom Hauler is a 1971 Gmc retired firetruck ive been holding onto for a number of years. Elio and myself are prepping the 1 ton chassis for the cab swap.
Halfass Kustoms Collaboration
Brent is a talented Builder/RU-vidr from Manitoba. I have him to thank for Make It Kustom's first shout out on RU-vid! I've been a fan of his channel for years. At the end of this month, Brent will and I will work together on this project side by side getting as much done as we can with the goal of running and driving this truck at the end of his stay.

Having been a heavy truck mechanic for over 40 years I'm really looking forward to this build! I'm sure you want to remain with IFS, but if you chose to use a beam axle it would be easy to widen the front end without changing the frame width significantly. Just a thought. Looking forward to the next video and have already alerted several friends to the build. They are now subscribers too!

@charlesirby9222 Год назад

Same thoughts I had, your'a good thinker! 😜

@johnheard2814 Год назад

Better off and much easier build go back to the original frame!!! Get ahold of Ian Roussel he can steer you in the right direction for the build your wanting to make this into!!!

@65cj55 Год назад

@@johnheard2814 Yes, it was stupid not keeping the original .

@fasteddie4294 Год назад

I agree also its gonna have to have a straight axle. Probably need some really big wheels also

@dreamerdave5499 Год назад

With Brent there I would nt put it past them to narrow the cab😆

Been following Brent for years and just picked up your channel. How amazing you guys are working together on this one!

@snoopu2601 Год назад

I found this channel through Brent he gave Karl a shout out and glad he did because Karl does some amazing work and learn a lot from both of them. Bad Chad to he. Work's fast, a lot of people don't like his work but he gets stuff done and fast.

Cool build. I always thought about one of these builds. I always looked at school busses for a frame and suspension. Some are cab over design and have a wider track wide. The frames are straight and long so wheel base is unlimited. Thr steering box your after is from a step van or just a chevy van. They have a different box setup then a pickup. Going be cool Brent is in on the build. Right guy for a fast build. Watch both you guys religiously. Can't wait till the next one

@MakeItKustom Год назад

Yeah a school bus would be pretty amazing there’s so many possibilities keeping some room in the front for storage or sleeper or slightly camperized! I think this frame is too narrow man LOL there are better chassis out there

What would look good is a set of super singles like what Brent runs on his General crew cab truck. Going to be an awesome collab!

@mikedmt Год назад

I was going to say the same thing. It would help fill those wheel wells, that's for sure. I think the C30 frame or whatever it is might be a touch too narrow for that beast of a cab

@davidblake1542 Год назад

Love this stuff !!! Thanks Karl 👍👊😎

@carportkustoms5764 Год назад

Love it. But this width issue doesn't just affect your steering. Having such a narrow chassis with so much side over hang is likely going to make it feel super unstable with a lot of body roll around the corners, especially if on air ride. I would honestly consider making new cross-members and widening the chassis to improve stability.

@danpoole9327 Год назад

Cab and chassis chassis are 34" wide. That's industry standard.

@poelmeister Год назад

I agree with Carport. Mind you, if there’s two tonnes of haul on it, it’ll be even worse. And looking at the design, that weight won’t be sitting low center either.

@danpoole9327 Год назад

Semi trucks that haul 80,000 pounds are build on a 34" wide frame....

@carportkustoms5764 Год назад

@@danpoole9327 what's your point? Semi trucks have more rigid frames and are built for the added weight, torsion etc. Regardless of whatever point you're trying to make, widening the chassis will improve stability.

@jamesviehmann4291 Год назад

Looking forward to seeing how this one turns out... Its gonna be super slick! Too bad you couldn't find yourself an old motorhome and snag the chassis out from under it. It would solve the width and steering box issue, would locate the engine about where you want it, you wouldn't have to lengthen the chassis, and lastly, it would have the dual wheel axle setup as well which is really what ya want for a hauler. Best part.. You can get a clapped out motorhome for next to nothing and they are pretty easy to source. Just me brainstorming. 🙂

@glassblastcollision Год назад

I have a one ton Winebago motor home frame and it's exactly what Karl has there.

@brucescott4753 Год назад

I think James is talking class a motorhome.

@MakeItKustom Год назад

Yeah I definitely agree that there are better Chassis out there to start with. I think we have to make that decision

@garyprice8490 Год назад

Can’t wAit to see this progression take place I’d imagine that you’ll widen the chassis for stability don’t you think? This is a fantastic project!! Can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

@kristiankristiansen133 Год назад

Had the same idea🙃

@MakeItKustom Год назад

@MakeItKustom Год назад

Right on Adam! Yeah I’m pretty excited to get to work with Brent for a whole week! I feel like we can probably bang a lot of work out.

@bigdaddy741098 Год назад

The rendering looks sweet... I'm not quite sure how you're going to get that little toy chassis to match and look anything like it though lol. Are you sure you aren't going to regret getting rid of the original chassis that actually kinda slightly looked somewhat Exactly like the perfect dimensions because it was... you know.... Designed that way? Although that would probably be too easy for you lmao

@pauldionne1665 Год назад

I thought the same thing. The weight on the front axle exceeds what the one ton can carry, even with air suspension. The cab will have to be cut to fit the frame.

@deanmesserer3554 Год назад

Yep what I would have done as well but we'll wait & see how it pans out.

@tomjones5974 Год назад

OG chassis looked good and only 15k miles. Drop twin turbo LS in that puppy. Boom.

@rona1144 Год назад

@shanehack871 Год назад

@noobFab Год назад

This is an AWESOME project - so much cooler than the average bolt-on special. Really excited to see where you take this and whether you'll put any custom aesthetic touches on the styling?!

@MakeItKustom Год назад

Yeah I’m pretty open to ideas on that I think that the light bar will be coming off of it as well as the search Lights. Definitely going to add as much style into the bed as possible. Also will be building a custom front bumper

@noobFab Год назад

@@MakeItKustom Nice! Hopefully those hideous mirrors will be coming off?!? With the light bar coming off, it's really going to change the shape of the cab - flattening it quite a bit and making it look quite boxy. Custom fabbed mirrors could either allow you to really double down on the squareness or add some contrasting curves maybe? The custom bed sounds really cool - the roof overhang behind the cab could be something really cool to play with too. A place to build in a custom toolbox and wich housing, maybe more?

@xozindustries7451 Год назад

Cool build, I built a ramp body car hauler on a f600 chassis. Those 1 ton frames really aren’t heavy duty enough to handle the weight of a full sized car, if you stick with a little hot rod you should be fine, also brakes aren’t really up to the task, plus stretching the frame makes the turning radius horrible. I know people do it, but when I built mine I wanted to drive cross country with no problems.

@glassblastcollision Год назад

I think he's trying to use sentimental value of his dads trucks into the build ,If he boxes the frame it should be fine. I'm sure if you spend some coin you could up grade the rotors,calipers and drums.

@bruceaskin9645 Год назад

Heres another option , split the cab through the center, make it fit the chassis. But personally I would widen the chassis

@m37cdn Год назад

Karl, you will be fabricating mostly all new crossmembers for the frame anyway, why not widen it ? You would have more room to tuck the engine between the frame rails. Another thing to consider is custom A arms for the front suspension, you could make them wider and have more room for the airbags....

@cheesynuts4291 Год назад

Can’t wait to see this one when finished! Stuck break drums? Zip wheel and an air hammer. Take er apart in chunks. Pretty quick that way.

Hey guys, I been in the Towing industry & truck mechanic most of my life & I cant wait to see how this turns out... looking forward to some halfass additions, My thought would be cut 6inchs out of the center of the cab(skinnyize it) & join it back together or cut & shut as we in Australia call it maybe lower the roof by a couple inchs too just to smooth out the look...just a thought 😉
