I bought my second truck from Screw Haul back in June. They rated the transmission and rear differential as a 4 out of 5 and said that they operate properly. The line for just the differential said 3 out of 5. It said that it shows some signs of wear. I didn’t notice this when I looked at it and I’m certain it let go on the way home but the long axel housing was bent right at the pumpkin. They did a No No repair and attempted to weld the tube to the gear housing. They didn’t even drain the oil first. The bead is just laying on top all the way around. Measuring off the frame to the edge of the center tread the driver side wheels were towed out 1.5 inches across the wheel. Pretty dirty and crooked if you ask me. I think I’m going to talk to an attorney. I just got it back today $3, 200 later for a new axle housing and complete rebuild. Finally I can wrap up this build

I think it’s pretty cool I always wanted to buy one of these old uhauls and do something with it

Before buying, check the box, didn't look close enough on 26', and saw a small crack in the wrap. Other than that it look smooth and flat. Also didn't knock on it. A hollow sound will tell you the FRP has delaminated in that spot. After getting the 8 layers of wrap off, a 4x8 foot section was repaired the wrong way. 1/4" skinnier FRP and they used bondo so it sucked water in from the crack and rotted all around the sheet and then popped off the outside 2x6 foot section of fiberglass next to it. Took forever to fix it. Always use marine grade epoxy and fiberglass and other products only. If you cut or drill holes, allow the epoxy to soak into the plywood and use two coats before installing whatever.

I had a breakdown several years ago in Georgetown ky. The vendor showed up in one fancy well organized rig. Air compressor was PTO driven just a well thought out design. He was dressed fairly well for a mechanic. That has lingered with me since. He had 250k tied up in that service rig. Hope all is well my truck heads to body shop next week and after that I will be trying to contact you for a clutch job. I haven't forgot ya.

[MacMilly]

Hell yeah, good job and good luck buddy 👍

[JohnLee-cbez]

Good luck. With your kind of work ethic and support, you should succeed in no time. If I ever need you in Ohio, I will call.

[evguenimertodjan]

Wish you good luck and success in your business!

Should of shipped that transmission to Precision Transmission down in Amarillo Texas :)

Mount one of those small hydraulic crane arms on the inside corner of the box to hoist heavy crap onboard

I'm going to look at a couple this week. 2006's plan to use for local truck we I'll see.

How about an air ride for the rear. All the weight in the rear may make the truck steer funny I like the set -up maybe a 0 degrees leaf's springs in the rear A tracking device for the truck and insure the hell out of it to cover the replacement costs if it gets stolen...never can tell good luck I am jealous, looks like a lota fun I am Rutten for you guys KEEP GOING.

I want to buy a 17 foot u-haul truck the sales men said that for me to get a good running one I would spend about 12, 000 or should I buy a Penske truck or a Isuzu box truck?

[hellohogo]

did i miss the buying experience? I see a tour, but not the price, the model, taxes, what to look for etc

Ryan, this is off the subject for this video but who do u recommend for insurance for Landstar. I remember u mentioning where to get it through in previous videos but I’m drawing a blank.

[afamilyoutside]

Thanks for making this video and sharing your experience. Do you still have this vehicle? I'm in the market and I don't know if I should buy one. I swore off buying an ex rental car years ago, but this would be for a camper build.

[gst]

Hi could you send the info from your shop I'm looking a good mechanic. To take care of my peterbilt.

[bek]

Is uhaul truck reliable vehicle?? I want to get one but because it's not that expensive but might runs into issue later
