Papa Dar's Jeep build is coming along quite nicely and it's just about complete!! We wanted to make sure that he was safe out there on the trails, so we built a "state of the art" custom roll cage!! He should now be safe to roll it as many times as he likes. ;)
Make sure to follow along with us as we build and fabricate cool stuff!!

I got my gray hat just in time for the snow to melt. Up here in MN
Awesome!! Hope you love it!!
from a covair burnout to a jeep cage. what a great Sunday morning
agreed! couldn't havr asked for a better morning llineup
My thoughts exactly
Lol right there with ya
lol same
That's damn near an external frame!
When you said a roll cage...you meant a ROLL CAGE! Ol’e Papa Dar must take his “ having fun “ seriously!
The true test of any good crawler. "Grandma's ditch!"
Paul I so envy the fact that you just showed at least 3 generations in a room and all having the ability to teach, show or learn how to work with there hands
🤣 First words heard " Dad we got a 🔥"... welding, grinding and an occasional fire ... lol... garage life! 💖💪👍
Love to see a father son team. Me & my dad do things like that together. He tought me all my metal working skills and lots more. Nice cage man!
Make sure you weld a d ring on the cage for Papa Dars hammock after a long day wheeling 👍💪
There's nothing more gratifying than building your own stuff, from scratch. Lucky.
The jeep is really coming together, love the show. can't wait to see the jeep up against the corvair lol
Looks like the Corvair is gonna be finished first. I like the way the rigs look now while they are being built. I like the way this Jeep looks right now. Should be fun.
I wanna see the shake down run with Dar's jeep and the Corvair!
Matt had a vid this morning and now you do. If the Essential Craftsman had one today it would be near perfect! And today is my week I don’t go to church. Thanks Paul!
All three channels you just mentioned are also my three favorites. I could listen to Scott from Essential Craftsman all day every day. Dude has such a vast array of knowledge and explains it absolutely perfectly.
Great work as usual Paul. Most likely shift linkages are lose? Possibly a broken pivot bolt. You've inspired me to start a channel showing how I repair and restore old welding machines.
When you build a roll cage that you can drop a building on...that’s Fab Rats! Probably could also double as a kid’s jungle gym! Will be sad time to see Papa Dar’s jeep not in the shop, but can’t wait to see it flexing on the trail!
😀
How many times you planning on rolling that thing? That’s a lot of tube lol.
I think it is "How many times are you planning to survive the roll" vs "How many times are you planning on rolling". I think he plans to roll all the way down. Unless Matt pulls the banana in the way to stop him!
There's a lot of weight in the drivetrain so if it lands upside-down it won't crush. Worst case survival.
Years of welding and wheeling says this man knows what he's doin.
@@jakep5121 I have no doubt that you're correct about that, and most of this cage does serve a genuine purpose in a worst case scenario. but things like those 2 extra angles behind the front seats and a lot of what's on the roof are superfluous. I would say redundancy is the only purpose for a lot of them.
I'd weld the crap out of it to if my Dad was in it.
love watching, these folks feel like family, thanks for taking the time to make it all, keep up the good work
hopefully papa Dar keeps the shiny up and the greasy down but if not no worries the jungle gym will protect him for sure, nice job on the roll cage
Now if you sheet that beautiful cage if papa rolls it over on snow he will slide all the way home. Really that’s the nicest cage I’ve ever seen great job. I still think Ramcharger orange white top. Love the looks of it.
The jeep is looking good. Can’t wait for the Willys build to start.
Great looking $2 truck. Can't beat that. And great progress on they Jeep.
The cage looks awesome. You have to include a bar behind the front seats that goes from behind drivers head to behind passenger seat. Then a bar straight across between the B pillar bars. You can also do a complete X behind the front seats. These bars will stop the cage from collapsing if rolled over. Look at any race car and you will see what I am talking about.
If you form DAR with those tube pipes, the name alone holds structural integrity. Add Pauls craftsmanship, she’ll be impregnable !
That hole saw jig is _awesome!_
Also, good for him. You can't beat a $2⁰⁰ truck.
I miss my first ever truck! I wish I still had it

Your oldest is a mirror image of you btw.
I wished I lived closer, just to help out around the shop and learn as much as I can.
You know you live in a great small town when older farmers gift their old vehicles to eager boys anxious to work hard on them!
Calling that cage stout is an understatement...that is a monster of an cage
I wish Paul had an ironworker too! (also while we're wishing, I'll take one for myself as well 😉) let's hope someone in upper management from one of those big name manufacturers becomes a fan of the channel 😄👍
I like when Papa gets in there wrenchs around when he can
This is a roll cage from a rock crawlers perspective, don't want anything coming in from the top to hit you in the cabbage, Paul you built 3 things in one , the coolest roll cage , a kids jungle gym and a platform for papa Cars rooftop tent which someone out there can send to him as a sponsor , 👍 Sunday mornings just don't get much better , A Corvair video and Fab Rats video
love watching your videos and seeing your great things from scratch
Awesome video/fabrication! I can’t wait to see papa Dar wheel this thing, it’s going to be an animal!
Providing it can move 😊
Paul, the only thing I could think of when flexing jeep is to lower tire pressures and check clearances. Excellent work on fabricating cage.
Cant wait to watch you guys pull Matt out with that
I was bored. Then boom. New video. Perfect timing Fab Rats 👍👍
I'm glad papa dars arm is back in working order.
Nice roll cage!!!!! That’s how to build a roll cage.☺️☺️☺️👍👍👍
As soon as the video starts I hit that like button. I know I'm about to learn something, laugh and be inspired. Your videos never fail! Keep it up 🤘🏻🤘🏻 Love this jeep build!
Paul, a man of many talents!!!!!!!!!!!1
Cool roll cage set-up, the blue Nissan pick-up is cool. I have a 94 Nissan Altima SE with the 5-speed manual transmission. Mines had the 2.4L 4-cylinder engine which it shared with the Nissan pick-up during that time and the engine lasted me a lil over 465,000 miles so I know the 2.4L engines were well made, I retired the car and put it up on cement blocks and the dogs use it as a shade during the summer months lol 👍🇺🇸..
You definitely could use an Ironworker, Paul. They are very handy.
You an Mat just the best.
Dar will definitely be safe if it rolls over. Nice cage
Damn at that point you could've just used steel plate for the cage lol. Great video
I roughly calculated the added weight from the estimated lengths of the tubing in the roll cage. I won’t disclose it so as not to embarrass myself; but, Papa Dar better not be planning on taking that beastie out into the sand here in Utah. (Yes, I am a native) He will sink like a rock tossed into quicksand. The more he fights against it and the faster his wheels spin the quicker he will sink. As a rock crawler he would be advised to add several hundred pounds of lead to the bottom half of his Jeep to redefine and to relocate the centroid of his Jeep so he DOESN’T roll over. LOOKS GOOD, though.
Your work is so awesome Paul , that's one heck of a roll cage you built there sir . You have done a amazing job on Papa Dars Jeep . Looking forward to your next video sir. Until next time take care and be safe.
Good morning 🌞 everyone
Looks great. You will figure out the transmission. You can do it.
FAB RATS and Matt off-road rock
That was a LOT of welding!
Awesome work! Real fabrication is why I watch. Nice flex!
Nice job on the Rollcage...Sweet...Great video thank you for sharing
Hey Paul, in the refinery with welders, there are always Fire Watch personnel around any welding job sites. That might be something to consider, after Land caught that one.
Not bagging on ya, but like Mrs. Michelle with the eye and hearing protection, we just want you to see and hear in a few years.
"Dad, how do they determine the weight limit on bridges?"
"Well, they drive bigger and bigger trucks over the bridge until it breaks, then they weigh the last truck and rebuild the bridge."
-Calvin and Hobbes
I thought of that when Lan was expecting the forklift to roll the jeep.
those Nissans are awesome we had one growing up on our ranch and we could take that thing damn near anywhere we wanted to take it.
Nice to see you passing on your knowledge to your kids! And that old Nissan D21 is awsome! Some truck heritage right there.
Sweet cage. Nice job. Thanks for video.
Bloody fantastic! Impressive flex! 👌💪👍
Judging by the amount of reinforcements in the cage, PapaDar must like that skinny pedal even with a tire off the ground lol
This is some cool content. makes me want to throw money at a garage and learn to fabricate the correct way
Wow, 2 videos dropped about the same time, Matt's and Fab Rats! Fab Rats won the which to watch first! We can see the satisfaction that Dar and Paul have with the completion of this build coming to a conclusion.
Now that's a proper cage, nice job. As for the transmission, tomorrows another day.
That roll cage is going to be a head banger when it gets bumpy
Paul, You and Matt should build a 24 hour of Lemons Car. It's a racing series where the total value of the car can't exceed $500. Looks up their videos on here they're a hoot. With your your and Matt's building and mechanical skill's you'd do awesome.
I love grandma's proving ground!!
Awesome vid Paul. Patiently waiting for the next one 💪🏼👍🏼
Waking up to Papa Dar is always great. Next best thing is any video rescuing Matt...
Nice roll cage...keeping papa Darr safe. Better to be safe than not. Nice video...👍👌
I just love your stuff. Thanks.
That's a pretty stout roll cage! I've seen the places you go and expect that with all that weight on top, it will get put to the test at some point. Papa Dar might want to invest in a stout harness and some limb restraints!
WOW! That cage is Badass!!👍
Holy Ballz, I have an 18 ton boulder in the back yard that would have a hard time busting through that cage if it fell off the mountain.
You'll get it Paul. 700 is a different animal. Look at the TVA. Heck of a job on the whole build.
She’s a BEAST! Great build.
Think you could drop it from an airplane and have it survive landing on the roof. Looks great! Thanks for sharing these builds with us
Sick cage and Fab work ... That jeep would look bad ass with a canvas safari top on it ..
Great build man.
Hello,
I enjoy your videos very much. I’ve even rewatched some to learn some really neat stuff. You done some really cool projects.
Lol, bet the cage weighs more than the jeep did stock hahaha. I said it before so gotta say it again, PAPA DARR KING OF THE HAMMERS 2022
That is one sweet ride!
DAMN That is a serious Roll cage Great work boys it is looking fantastic and great to see Papa Dar with out the sling!!
More steel in the cage than the entirety of the rest of the jeep...including the engine.
Can't wait to see the next episode.
Can’t wait to see this and the corvair do some wheelin!
looking good boys!... nice work!... thanks 4 video. be kind.
Nice job on the cage build Paul , probly went through a spool of wire just about Ha !! This summers gonna have some outstanding off road trips I can feel it !! Papa Dar's got himself a machine !!
Good Job Paul!!!!!👍💯
Fair play paul there's some nice fab work gone into that cage m8 👌🏼👌🏼🤘🤘🤙🤙
Looking great 👍
Looking good!
Hiya all, Now, I have a problem watching you fabbing up stuff, being an ex engineer (no not a train driver but making stuff that flies) I can watch you all day fabbing stuff and thinking it through as you go, rather than just watching and saying - OHH hes so clever, yes you are good, but Im not saying that lol.. Clever people working with metal to me Is an art form, I done stuff making things from Hi Tech metals and alloys for years, it was my job, I enjoyed it, but I too come from motor sport on the Ovals so made things that worked well also/ well retired from both, but, just love watching you work making art forms Into functionality (ohh thats a big word).. All I can say Is keep up the good work.. So Ill keep watching it all happen.. Thanks for the video - Ian - UK.
Thanks for watching!!
Bravo Bravo Bravo!!! Cage looks amazing Paul! The transmission on the other hand, gotta fix that! The flex also is pretty sick!!! Good job!!!
Great job on the roll cage !
Looks like a jungle gym attached to a jeep
I'm fairly sure that if that Jeep rolls that cage will definitely not fail! It may have added 1,000 pounds to the Jeep. That's alot of metal. Papa Dar will definitely be safe.
This is my favorite fab channel!!
Another great video guys and taking the time too teach your son also. keep on going looking forward to watching more videos
What a roll cage! Hopefully it's not top heavy. Thanks for the show fabrats👍
You should get your boys taking some autocad or solidworks classes so they can start making parts in the computer for you. Then get yourself a plasma table to cut everything out. Youll be selling parts like trusses and bumpers in no time. I wish someone told me i could make jeep parts in the computer when i was in high school. I had no idea what autocad was back then. Now im trying to figure it out on my own. Sketchup is also a good program and its free.
Looks awesome
Addicted to spark. You sure seem to have a good time. lol
that has to be the best roll cage ever! What a build!
Good video as always Paul.
