Jeep XJ Build - We Had a Little Fun and Turned A Wrench into an Exhaust Hanger
Просмотров 2533 месяца назад
#offroad #jeep #jeepxj #rockcrawling #diy #fatherson #fabrication #jeeplife #harborfreighttools The Sandbox had a terrible exhaust rattle because of a rusted out hanger so we fabricated a custom exhaust hanger from an old wrench. Why? Because we needed an excuse to practice welding and use our new bandsaw from Harbor Freight. Subscribe to catch the latest from Sandbox Adventures: ruclips.net/ch...

#offroad #jeep #jeepxj #rockcrawling #DIY #jeepcherokee #jeeplife #fatherson Preston and I head back into the garage to work on the Sandbox, installing new rear frame stiffeners we purchased from ​⁠​⁠@barnes4wd.

Jeep Cherokee XJ Starter Troubleshooting & Replacement

After installing our new rear bumper, our Jeep Cherokee XJ wouldn't start! So we did some trouble shooting and checked the battery, starter relay, starter fuse and narrowed it down to a bad starter which we replaced with a refurbished starter from @AutoZone without too much hassle. #jeeplife #offroad #jeep #jeepxj #rockcrawling #DIY #jeepcherokee #fatherson Subscribe to catch the latest from Sa...

      Typically it is the jumps that you need to worry about but that is definitely on the low side. If it was me I’d swap it out. Maybe confirm the number with another multimeter first though

      Thanks! Sounds like ya’ll have a fun project on your hands too. We ended up buying the Durlast SU3224 crankshaft position sensor from Autozone bc of shipping issues with the mopar brand. Knock on wood, but we’ve had zero issues with it since we installed it.

    My 98 xj only stalls when I’m doing heavy off roading and i gotta let it rest for a couple mins and turns back on but in the city it drives perfectly fine no rough idle it doesn’t stall could it still be the crank position sensor??

    • @sandbox_adventures
      @sandbox_adventures 23 дня назад

      It could be the start of one going bad, but that is odd it does it while off-roading and not city driving. When it does stall, are you at crazy angles?

    how did you repair the wire after stabbing it

    • @sandbox_adventures
      @sandbox_adventures Месяц назад

      The multi meter prong should be able to get a reading without actually puncturing the protective wire coating. But if it did, I’d use some electrical tape to cover it. If the wire somehow got really damage (very unlikely really), I’d splice it with a solder stick connection.

    Well, I'm a couple of days late getting to see your video, but as they say, better late than never. I really like the new jack, I would love to have one myself. You guys are ready for NASCR now. Been thinking about selling my old 88 XJ but haven't made up my mind. Don't get to ride it much these days and I hate to see it setting. Mom says don't get rid of it, so who knows. Y'all take care in this heat and next time you go on the trail think about this old man Preston and have fun!

  • @mikaelwise807
    @mikaelwise807 3 месяца назад

    Thank you for sharing the math on how much the stiffeners add to the frame. Curious as to how much variation that end result has based on how/where the stiffeners attach. Does that make much if any difference?

    • @sandbox_adventures
      @sandbox_adventures 3 месяца назад

      Thanks for the question, it’s a good one. And yes, it does make a difference where you add the stiffeners. Max deflection is typically near the center between your supports so that would be the ideal location for stiffeners but variation in your stiffness and where the load is applied (think rock crawler twisting and flexing and changing angles) can shift that max deflection around a lot. When we add our mid frame stiffeners, I think I might quickly cover how much welding is really needed.
