i absolutely love this show please keep up the good work!
Uses press to install wheel studs, hammers on the U joint's!! Lol
for getting the new studs in i just use a sacrificial nut and use the impact to draw it through. Works great every time!
Or, to press in the studs. Buy an open lug nut and 5 to 10 washers. Use an impact. No issues on my XJ when I did it years ago.
I can't believe that other Jeep didn't at least have limited slip differentials in it had open diffs
Awesome build 👏
Great Videos. Keep Up The Good Work.
Jeep should make a Power Nation version of a Jeep.
I've been waiting..
Keep should make a Power Nation version is a Jeep.
Nice vid!!!!!!! 👍😉🤜🤛
Thanks, while we are locked up from having anything ourselves.
Nice 👍
Wait, did he say "heavy duty dana 44"?
Very cool stuff indeed!
Use a stacked lug nut to install the studs.
Off roading can be fun......but it can be VERY expensive!
I seen on the drive shafts that a cv joint was used I personally do not like them. I have shattered many of them on my old truck I just removed them and went u joint to u joint with a slip yoke.
V-Hickel
like the cab nothing else. could have been nice rebuild
How much something like this would cost?
so you have about 50 k into this old jeep ?
👍👍
Should have just bought a Rubicon...
What did this total build cost?
I'm going to say bare minimum $20k. More likely closer to $30k. Brakes are easy $2k. Probably $3000 in wheels and tires alone. Suspension probably $4-5k. A crate 44 with ARB is $4-5k. Engine swap and all the parts for it probably another $4-5k. Bumpers and winch probably $3-4k. Don't forget the vehicle if you don't have that. So basically spending $50k to get a vehicle when finished is worth about $25k. Don't forget labor if you don't have the skills to do it yourself. If so shop labor is easily $150/hr.
Missed one important upgrade a real cage
Why spend all that money on tires and a lift kit and no locking diffs (the 4 door)? Just going back and forth all day to get over the rocks doesn't look like fun.
3rd!!
WHY NOT GIVE IT AWAY?
This is an old vid
If you're not going to re-use factory axle shafts then might as well have upgraded to a 35 spline setup. 35 spline shafts & locker doesn't cost anymore that a 30 or 32 spline combo. Wasted opportunity imo
03:21 the axle shafts were upgraded
@@TrumpAmerica-2024 you're missing the point...they swapped stock shafts for aftermarket but with the same spline count. If all they were going to do was upgrade axle shafts then by all means but since they swapped out gears, lockers & shafts, getting the same factory spline count is a waste.
@@apexpredator_jku the stock shafts are 30 spline, the upgraded shafts are 35 spline. how is that a waste?
@@TrumpAmerica-2024 when and where did they say they were 35 spline? That's the whole point of my initial comment. 3:06 he says, "we could re-use the factory 30 spline shafts, they'll bolt right up". Which means, if they had installed a 35 spline shaft & locker, they wouldn't be able to re-use the factory shafts. All they did was swap out factory 30 splines for aftermarket chromoly 30 splines.
@@apexpredator_jku 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
😎👍✌👌🖖😁
Why the Hemi instead of a diesel.
Number one weight number 2 SOME what of a budget number 3 to much work for them lol
@@chevydodgedude1234 size as well. Diesels are just big.
@@bmstylee depending on what route the would choose yes
@@bigboreracing356 well true but you get a lot more low end forth out of a diesel. A hemi is more designed for race car applications. Your
going to have to rev the crap out of that hemi to make it perform in the power band.
lol air lockers. what a waste of money.
Right, a higher center of gravity is better at highway speeds and turns...
i'll just buy the new hellcat one lol
its not a hellcat but its the same engine as the superbee i believe, just moved the alternator higher
not gm and not ford 👍👍
1st
Damn
That will never be worth anything if it's a piece of shit Chrysler
