It's too big to maneuver around in normal circumstances not to mention in tight places, hard to park and get in and out of, the list goes on. Completely impractical and a waste of money, at least with an exotic vehicle you have a better chance in maintaining its resale value, with this in 10 to 20 years time it would be worth nothing.

Great show nice trucks. I drive 18 wheelers and the reason most are drum is because up intill bedix came out with there system two years ago there were no reliable disc breaks for 18 wheelers but now they are all switching to disc. They are way easier to service and stop 140 feet shorter than drum, last much longer and don't over heat as quickly.

But the truck was lifted 5ft off the ground. Mind you that at least 2 of the 4 wheels were touching the pavement.

That's a lot of lift. The '66 Chevy would look so much better if it had been modded closer to stock. I still appreciate the work that went into it, though.

@kesslermo 3 года назад

Agree with that so much! I've seen photo's of this thing for a while now, but seeing the video from further away driving it down the road... its WAY too tall. some 19.5's with stock type tires, this thing would look great.

@varun009 3 года назад

Exactly my thoughts. Usually lifting is done to create clearance for larger tires. I think the lift should be lowered by an inch and the tyres swapped out for 38s. You should have breaks and axles capable of handling them in a truck that big anyway. Probably not the best choice to run down the highway with, but they look much better. People are often surprised how much better older suvs and trucks look with bigger modern tires and hubs.

@donfronterhouse1849 3 года назад

I've dreamed of building a truck this 66 for 30 years but I do agree the lift is way over.

@TruckerJDub 4 года назад

@@Cody6210 In semi trucks they only come out of adjustment if something fails where drums back off over time no matter what. Stopping power is also better than drums.

@gordowg1wg145 4 года назад

Checked the K-W site following someone else's comment (which I now can't find) where he said he'd driven one of last year's models with drum brakes. Seems they have F&R discs as standard on almost all of their trucks, with drums being optional - might be down to attitudes and/or costs.

@gordowg1wg145 4 года назад

@@Cody6210 Depends on how you define "power" - there is a self-servo affect on the leading shoe(s) whereas a disc is reliant on the squeeze. For extreme use, a drum 'may' be able to apply greater peak brake torque, but that is debatable and, regardless, drum brakes simply cannot dissipate the heat as readily as a disc brake, so are much more likely to 'burn out' or fade, as you said. There is also another design dfference that is important - with a drum brake, as it heats and expands, it increases the brake travel of the wheel cylinders to apply them and, with some vehicles, this can result in a VERY low pedal. With disc brakes as the disc heats and expands it is actually moving towards the caliper pistons, slightly reducing travel.

Beautiful trucks!!! I do believe I have seen early 60s GM trucks in magazines that were made for mining companies. Modifications were done by a separate company. The fabrication work was rough at best, but was functional for what they was used for. Neat concept, but those trucks were nothing like these trucks. Also, there is a local farmer that has been putting Cummins engines in 70s style square bodies. He uses long bed, 4 door, 4x4 trucks. But they are truly ranch trucks. Again, beautiful trucks and thank you for sharing. And especially, thanks for saving these old trucks.
