The Time Has Come……. Old Broken Ford Towtruck Rebuild Starts!

Robbie, it would be extremely smart to resell the hydraulic cylinders regardless if they are leaking or not. Better than having to strip again to resell when the old seals start leaking.

Fred definitely needs an old sun viser like some trucks had back in the day

Great news! King Fred sure deserves the attention! I think you'd be smart to listen to Sir HillBilly … he has a good point … a welder would be a useful addition to Fred's repertory!

Good morning from Ireland. great idea to start the new build with a tidy up and new tool boxes.

Robbie I urge you strongly to rethink the Ram servicing, those internal seals start to break down the moment the hydraulic oil makes contact with them and the rubber itself starts to deform and they become flat and distorted after such a high class build the last thing you need is for the ram to fail you prematurely while your out on a job and after everything is repainted you wouldn't be wanting to break that ram down to get the ram fixed at least for a good while 3 + years and for you should do it for the same reasons you are changing out the hydraulic hoses, "while its apart just do it - scratch it up to preventative maintenance"

Sounds great, but you really DO need a welder as well.

Nothing like setting up a new tool box, it's truly amazing what you find that you thought you lost

Can't wait for the collaboration with Casey LaDell. You should get his advice when setting up King Fred!!! Thanks for sharing.

I'm so glad Fred is finally getting some love! Check out CNC's build on Bloody Mary They put a 12 valve in it and it's a no wire motor. It's a nice build. Y'all are awesome and I love Sunday morning coffee with y'all.😁

Make and put on rear stabilizers to help Fred anchor in winter and that cliff on last recovery.😊 possibly buy them stabilizers from a wrecker builder.😊

love that you have your family involved and the jokes are fun, great videos

Awe Bombi’s ending purrs were the best! We need Bombi merch someday. You should get an artist to do a Rat Fink style drawing with Bombi driving the hot rod Pacer.

FRED, Finest Recovery Expertly Done.

The old toolboxes seems to have very nice workbench surface'es at a ergonomic hight. Could possible be remade into mobile workbenches.

That is a very nice tool box! One problem, I wouldn't be able to use the top two drawers, unless it comes with a step stool!

Glad you got a new tow motor. Your old fella was cute, but way past due for hours used. Toyota lifts are made here in the USA so that's a bonus 👽🗿👽🗿👽

4:52 As a tow truck operator from another one to another one I want that rig with flashing lights all over place and you put red and blue lights on a separate switch because if you go to a couple different states we run red and blue lights! Go to Wyoming Colorado You go to where Ron Pratt is there's multiple states that run red and blue's and you need a builder comply with the regulation rules! So I want to see red and blue lights on there as well on a separate switch so you're in compliance if you have to go do stuff and other states okay! You bring it up to date get yourself a motor carrier and DOT license

You two have made a beautiful family together. I'm always praying for your health and happiness. Stay safe

Excited to see Fred rebuilt to top condition with a beautiful blue. Now you need to do some gold lettering with your name on the doors

Nice to see Fred finally getting some love, he will be even better.
