Are the leaf spring bushings replaceable?

Every Prius is done for

Ironman4x4 fab shackle relocation bracket addresses the flimsy 2 bolt mounting setup issues. It also bolts to the unibody rail. Been running it without any issues.

For anyone worries about this just get the liquid iron industries brackets which are 0" drop so they don't produce all that leverage. There held in with like 7 bolts each side and you can weld em in. I've got almost 100k miles of beating the piss out of it and there chillen

At 9:21 I noticed the angle of your shackle. Maybe move it further back on your adjustments. When it compresses the spring it will get longer. It will have nowhere to go the way it is there.

Let’s go jump it

Nice work Jake. Looks like those mounts will be real strong. Have a great year!

I bought a set of 4" Old Man Emu leaf springs for my 90 XJ 5 or 6 years ago. I have wheeled it a fair amount, but nothing crazy. Probably 10k miles or so on the jeep in that time - it's not my daily. Leafs are still in great shape. Ride great. Flex good. Will haul some weight. You did a nice job on those shackle boxes. I hope to ditch the leaf springs for a four link before my shackle boxes tear out.

This is good to know and look out for. I just received my rough country shackle relocation brackets lol

awesome stuff! Thanks

Awesome video! Thanks for all the info!

pretty interesting assessment

Can’t wait to get out and break something else

Your neighbor for the win again...😁

Thanks. Interesting video. Looking forward to more this year!

Thank for sharing. What type of material did you use for this project?

Nice recovery. Im looking for a XJ to buy before spring. Might see you out on the trails im in that area alot.

Donde puedo comprar el nudillo como el que instalaste?

Hey I know this is an older video but I need to do this on the donor AW4 in my YJ.. how hard was it to pry off? I have a new one in case I break it... No Reverse lights are the issue. I am working on floors AND RAILS ON , MY xj TOO... i SUBSCRIBED!

Show the bumper and less of your face

So what do you think about using the cheapest harbor freight wire welder vs stick welding? As a beginner.

@machinesinc What size lift do you have? I am running a 4.5 in 3-link now with 33x10.5s. Thinking I could probably do similar cutting and proper bumpstopping and clear 35s.

Up at midnight because of jet lag watching some of your older stuff I haven't seen before. Your method for squaring the crossmember is right on time. I am installing a long arm setup on my jeep now and hadn't thought of that. I was measuring off of the wheel wells to center the axle in the wheel opening, but that makes sense to make sure the axles are parallel to each other. Thanks for that.

Love it❤

Lay your sheet metal on the lawn and drive over it

What type swaybar do you have? Do you like it? What sway bar setup would you recommend for a low lift with 1.75" lift in front, 2.25" in rear?

Do you have a link to the spec you used when designing the cage?

What pipe bender is that? And where do you get your tube steel?

Yeah.... You look pretty... With those earrings... You're outta here.

what axles are you running on your jeep? I'm considering getting an xj to build with big tires, I'm just trying to figure out if d30 front w/ d44 rear will be a beefy enough axle to handle big tires once built, or if I should just not care about axles and upgrade them to better ones

I'm looking at doing the same thing but with a F150 dana 44 in my LJ

Been thinking about buying this bumper for my xj and badlands 12000. How has it held up to winching?

What was the Amazon linkage you used?

Wondering how those hinges have held up, ever think about a piano hinge?

I just went to put the same Amazon linkage kit on mine and was like.... Wtf? This don't match up..... Then I found your video and now I know why 😂 Thanks brother.

On most vehicles the NSS also operated the reverse lamps.

amazing video brother. great fabrication. Did you charge for this job?? if so how much because my buddy wants me to fab one of these up for him. i will be tig welding it together

Lovely ❤❤❤ van

Great job! I had a 66 Ford Falcon van and enjoyed watching your vans story.

oh man... i was all excited to bang this thing out in a weekend LOL. I appreciate the reality check. Just curious, did you relocate the backup camera?

Fix it properly,replace the portion of rusted floor that needs attention, likewise to all rusted areas,there's no shortcuts ,a job worth doing is a job worth doing well

For the railroad 😂

I am doing a 70 G20. I would like to get some more information on your 4x4 conversion if you would share. I have a Red-E-Kamp conversion that is straight as an arrow and deserves to be on the road. Thanks. Mr.S

The first van looks like a Greenbrier van with a rear engine.

Didn't show anything about it that makes it over landing cool. Flashy van, hot motor and an awning? No interior, no cabinets no bed....

I watched a few other videos but yours is the best.. thank you

Nice build and great history.

I had the same van back in the 70's. My friends and I called her the crippler due to the fact if you get in a head on even if your legs will get mangled even if your doing like 30 miles an hour. Looks good and drive safe.

I haven’t even seen inside yet and I love it!
