It's finally coming true.

After undergoing major surgery, Don and a weak and intensive tube rehab My lifted diesel El Camino is half muscle car, half monster truck and half done under my constant supervision.

Guys finished up the rear to chassis.

They hooked up the links to the cradle and checked all the geometry on four link suspension.

And now it's time to install the bypass coil over shocks.

This thing is huge.

They're gonna give the El Camino that smooth ride I've always wanted.

Oh, look at that.

I love the man.

I'm shocked.

You're real punny now It's going to go anywhere.

Do anything showed off to the world when Muscle first showed up at the shop with his El Camino build.

I hated it.

But the fact that you saw the potential you took this little ugly duckling You nurtured it.

You helped it spread its wings.

And then it turned into this.

I mean, I'm proud of you.

Really?

How would you like to bring your big nurtured back?

The health?

Beautiful duck and show it off to everybody at the Monster Jam All Star Challenge.

Really under one condition that has to be driveable in time for the show.

Yes.

All right.

You about ready to get this transmission dialed and home?

I have been waiting since season one to get this done.

Getting the engine to work with the body was our very first challenge in building L Camino.

I just think the CM's commanding the injectors, not the fire.

Now, making sure that the transmission is getting all the info it needs from the engine to build up enough pressure to get out of first gear Our next challenge.

We already took the transmission over to Randy so that he could diagnose the problem.

We're gonna have some internal damage.

That's great lust, material.

What would the metal shavings be from?

We're gonna have to get the converter cut open Springs.

Then Randy cleaned up and rebuilt the entire four lady transmission care train coming up with stronger clutch components so they could handle the torque of the diesel motor.

Okay, boys.

Last piece to the puzzle.

Now it's done.

Now it's done.

We got new torque converter and the rebuilt transmission back in the revamped chassis for the El Camino.

And now it's time to make my baby purr.

We're going to a pressure test, this transmission.

So basically, take this tool right here.

We hook it up to the side of the transmission and it runs into this basically a transducer, and it it reads.

The pressure of the transmissions was like a blood pressure cuff for the transmission.

Basically.

So this is called the mainline pressure tap.

Yeah, it's basically the gateway to the heart of the transmission.

Get way too hard.

I love the way where you described that it doesn't lie.

Randy already rebuilt the entire transmission, so we know the internal components are good.

So for a lady, transmission is not exactly it never came behind a door.

A Mac.

So, yeah, it's a unique swap.

But if we test the fluid pressure and find out, there's not enough to move the clutch packs and shift gears.

That means the communication between the transmission and the engine's off.

And that's a much, much bigger problem.

Which means the El Camino won't be ready to take the monster jam and show off to the fans.

Clip it into this pressure sensor right here.

Okay, we're ready to roll, man.

So today we're looking for anywhere between 162 100.

Yes, I obviously they're closer than 200.

We love seeing that, but anything about 1 60 it's gonna prove to us that the transmission is making the pressure.

He stole the torque of that door, Max.

On one hand, it feels fantastic.

Finally be out on the open road inside the Camino.

On the other hand, I'm just praying she hits the numbers that she needs to hit, or at least close way almost got a 1 80 on that.

So word we're getting close to that realm with a little bit of adjusting on the way.

What's nice find driving me?

It's been my first time.

I got it like that.

A long time transmission works.

Randy's got to do a couple tweaks to the engine controls to make sure the engine and transmission er and perfect communication, I got to get the El Camino shined up.

He's gonna be the belle of the All Star ball at Monster Jim.

The guys at the shop stayed late, got it done.

And now, after years long struggle, pain and anguish, new shoes to match the new suspension, Casey lights all shining bright and ready for this.

What transformed into broke Amino, I thought was called the Hell Camino Thing by the kids.

David, you want little Charlie may saying H e double hockey sticks sit in the back of the broken.

You know, I got those same butterflies I get before every single race when I'm driving a monster jam.

The El Camino has been on a long, long journey way.

Did major surgery on the El Camino.

We cut the back half of the chassis off and replaced it with a stronger tube sub frame way took out the four lady transmission that was originally paired up with Dura Max Motor and rebuilt it with stronger valve components.

Way got rid of the old Lee Spring suspension and built a completely custom four link suspension with triple bypass shocks that we can tune so I could hit the jumps and fly through the air like a majestic eagle and land on a sea of clouds.

Here's the deal.

Like your suspension.

Yeah, there's a lot of cool stuff, but it can't defy gravity.

If you can dream it, you can do it.

Cleanup cosmetics put it on some 24 inch wills with 42 inch tires and gave it a brand new name.

I don't think we didn't change was signature burnt orange paint job so the bands could recognize it from miles away.

Hey, Speaking of fans, I got something I want to show you.

Diesel.

Dave, listen, But I am very impressed.

More than that, though I'm proud of you.

What you've created here is pretty amazing.

Beautiful.

We have another surprise tonight for you and for all the monster Jam fans.

Are you ready for this?

Will just take a little look up on the big screen.

It's May thing Yes, sir.

That really think this is the greatest news ever?

They're going to make the broken me.

No, it's your monster Jam Rock.

This is real life.

But what were you gonna tell me That you were talking to monster Jim about designing me?

My very own Monster Jam, bro Camino, Like I'm gonna be out on that track by myself.

On the road goes I need my buddy next to me.

You saw the potential and you made it come to life.

The Bass Brothers out of Monster Jam.

This is gonna be epic potential.

Maybe we should take the broken, you know, back home to Utah so that we can get to work on that potentially amazing Super Six tracked vehicle for Seema.

All right, but how about we take the long way to see what she can?

Really?

D'oh!

Deal handles nine different from what it waas granted, I never really got out of first year the first time, but it's a rough road and this thing's freakin smooth trophy truck suspension right there.

This is what she was born to do, my friend.
