Thanks for the tips.

Hi, Good format. I have also had the idea of a brumby on a solid diff chassis. It’s great to know I’m not the only nutter that enjoys creating a built enginerd 4b. I still don’t think it’s normal BUT! Normal is boring. Keep up the great work & content.

How did you modify the rafters to fit the lift in there?

I guess the Vitara was cheap for a reason, but well done to you, Jim, on swapping out the engine and making it into a great car for the Boss....I'm sure she's happy. Now, as for the Kizashi...do I see a custom build project in the wings????

Nice job fixing it up, sad part is a cheap Vitara becomes a "normal" price one (or a bit higher) and you're left with a heap of stuff Kizari?? that's probably not much good for anything.

Ahh used cars, you gotta love em' 😉 Great work getting it back up and running, better than sending it to the scrapper.

Once it started losing coolant. They probably just added water and it froze and busted the block. Glad to see you back at it. Sometimes we get into projects that just suck up the money. Hopefully you can recoup some on the parts car

Currently starting a similar project. 1985 brat and 1988 fullsize bronco.

For me 4 out of the 5 points are covered, the point about the concrete is a good one and I know mine will need work on it. Thanks for the tips mate.

Why do I need a hoist? Because I've got a BMW, that's why....

Just a tip , put a litre of dishwashing soap in your tank that would be the equivalent of having 0.1% class A foam and that will make your water more effective for fire fighting.

Great job mate 👌🤠👍

You made a nice little tractor out of that. Is the subaru still getting built?

well done jim

Nice work Jim. Thanks for sharing your time and project. Time for me to go shopping

I put a lift in my shop some years ago and researching I found that many are just folded steel on the posts. I went with an American made Mohawk lift because it used welded forklift mast as the posts and also used 2 pistons with overhead hydraulic lines, so clear floor. It needed at least 4" of reinforced 4,000 psi concrete. Since we didn't meet that we dug and poured 6" of 5,000 psi with steel mesh on top of 3/8" rebar, with 8" depth at the posts. I think it cost about an extra $400 to go the next level. Power was 20 amps 240 volt single phase. The extra overkill on everything was around $1500 but got a lift that would do 10,000 pounds.

Do the van here too

Why didn't you compare a 2 post hoist to a 4 post hoist ..?? 4 post hoist are more stable .. ??? like which is the best ..?? something to think about...???

Another thing to consider is screw lift vs hydraulic lift.

Nice touch the ending...got DOIN STUFF...a like.

I'm pouring square footings 4 feet deep with galvanized threaded rod j-hooked. I'm not pissing around with anchor bolts. No second chances under a vehicle.

Hi, just came across this video. Thanks for sharing. I have a fire trailer too, single axle though, tandem axle is a future project. Tomorrows job. I have a big burn pile waiting for autumn, I think I’ll do a practical test too, a real life test would be useful. Chris TRP.

Great advice! Thickness/quality of my concrete is definitely something that had not crossed my mind. So... great! More money. Can't wait to tell my wife.

Don´t buy a car lift if you are stupid, and what do you need a car lift for if you are stupid.

On the first one I installed, when we drilled holes in the concrete, to see how thick it was, we pushed too hard on the hammer drill and blew the back of the hole out, which made us think the concrete was thinner than it actually was, so we ended up selling the concrete outand putting in rebar and pouring a thicker pad when actually, it was thick enough, we were just thrown off because of blowing out the concrete by pushing on the drill so hard. Lesson learned.

This is genius! Always wanted to do this with my 86’ Brat back in the early 90’s

if you need a "installer" then you're in the wrong field. try cooking.

I’d try to find one where the motor/pump/tank are up high out of the workspace. Once I got mine I found car repairs are so easy that my “projects” are much more serious now.

I saw this video on what you can do with a two post lift, apparently more than cars and trucks lol ruclips.net/video/48FXlCFiftM/видео.html

I see a rock auto box there! I see we have the same interest in saving money. not to change the subject though, nice info the lift. Thanks brother.

What a video!! Nice job!

Crazy car, I like it.

Awesome build

Epoxy in the studs ( 3/4 good quality allthread ) ?

Nice job. Do you need a bypass for when you turn off the house but leave the pump running? Or do just the line that goes into top of tank?

I would think installing a hoist might affect your insurance so you should check before you install one and then find out you cannot get insurance.

always wanted to have a lift like Dan Tanna, just not the car really . Thanks for the video and peace on earth and ocean

'promosm' 😪

How fast did it go?, Didnt see you ride it..

no mister you need a 1mx1m x ,7 m filled with concrete and min 200 fastening, or long rag bolts geeze my D4 LR Weights 2600 kg empty Yofferou are a statistic waiting to happen under that hoist orfer a voltage converter from me 5 to 30kw, single ph in 3 phase 400 out

not bad eh? well done

nice job Sir

Just so you know .. An engine is powered by fuel and a motor is powered by electric

Been looking forward to the newest update on this build. As for camper. If you gonna turn it into a pull behind trailer camper that could be cool. Could use the subaru to pull it. That's just my thoughts though

Making good progress, Jim. I do like the way you recycled the towbar into a transmission mount...very clever. And yes, I'd put the Mitsubishi Express camper build on your channel. Can't wait to see how it turns out....after the Brumby is all done and road registered!!

It's coming along nicely.

I like the format, lots of work in just a few minutes. Camper sounds like a good video.

Don’t worry about your upload schedule fella.. this new format is decent just do what you do mate 👍🏻

I’d also like to see the camper build

They draw more than 10A, that's for sure. Have a look on the bottom at the rating sticker, mains input part look for "Imax" that's the maximum it will pull from the mains.
