5.9 Cummins Overhaul Upgrades

Dave u put a big smile on that young man’s face when u told him he did a good job. People skills goes a long way.

Dave, your channel is growing exceptionally fast , I would say that is a testament to your character and honesty!

The way you lift your people up is great. What’s notable is you remind the viewers that you didn’t used to be that way. You’ve learned to show kindness, but it’s come at a cost. Great content.

17 minutes was so in depth it really felt like I spent an hour. absolutely loved this video. every part was top notch

The best Father's Day present. "This is my son" After hearing him talk for a while. Lol

I don't know a single thing about engine builds, but watching that cylinder and O-ring surgery, I could easily imagine a guild artisan of the Middle Ages watching that and then recommending this crew as new 'guild masters' based on the sheer artistry of their craft. Nothing less than amazing.

Please we need more complete rebuilds. Love the lost art of motor repair. 👨‍🔧

My Dads cummins is a 5.9 too, 2005. Tons of blow by, probably a hole in the piston I bet. Id love to bring it to Dave's someday, im convinced these guys are the best there is.

That old man will be smiling down from heaven looking at how beautiful his old truck is now, great job guys :)

Dave is such a great boss. Mistakes are a part of learning. I love the gentle correction and you explained why it needed to be done. Even on good jobs, there's something better that can be done. The biggest room in the shop is the room for improvement.

I have been a mechanic for for forty years. The way you build up that young mans confidence in doing that job, I wish I had someone do that for me, I had to leave several jobs because of shady work that was done. Thank you for that support.

It's amazing how detailed Dave is. Just listening to how he talks about the brakes opens you mind up to all sort future issues with just one bad brake job.

Massive respect for sorting the Son out with his Father's truck. That level of care inprints on someone for a life time!

Joey is absolutely a genius when it comes down to building engines.

Truck was definitely worth saving, it's a beauty. Glad to see he had the natural gas system removed. Stellar job Dave and crew! Now if Dave could start a management retraining program on my bosses!🤔

I love, love, love, that last 3, to 5% rule, it's like, an engine can cost $8,000, but it's the nickle and dime stuff that makes the job good, radiator, hoses, therm, tune, filters, etc... NOT just the engine plunked in ! Good teaching Dave !!

Man this episode got me. My Dad bought a brand new 2003 dodge ram. He had one accident back in 2009, this was at a time I really was wanting to fix and work on a truck. We worked on it together and got it back up and running. That truck has had 0 issues over the years. Well he passed away day after christmas 2022. That truck has been sitting for the past year and a half and im working on getting the title so i could bring it back to glory. The only problem is its going to be tough emotionally to work on it again. But thank you Dave you really do remind me of my Dad in every aspect, its like watching my own Dad working on this stuff. Truly one of my favorite youtube channels! Keep the videos coming it means a lot more to some of us!

the brake rotor explanation was incredibly enlightening. awesome video once again.

Dave is the best, teaching, correcting, complimenting. He wants what’s best for everyone. Customer to employees and himself. I’d love to work for him if I wasn’t in Tennessee

Incredible knowledge and professionalism, you're the people that make this world go around. NOT POLITICIANS AND EXECUTIVES!
