- There is a whole lot going on with this poor jeep, but we are determined to make it great again. In this vid we tackle the rear section of the frame near the fuel tank.

Had a 94 YJ with a bad frame back in the day. "repaired" it with some squared plates tacked on without much precision, drove it until it hit 170,000 and sold it in 2016 because the frame failed again. Saw it just last weekend to the guy I sold it to, over 200k on the clock now and the frame was cut up to make a sweet mudbogger. Was like seeing a child all grown up.
I like the way you are so calm when you speak and explain what you are doing I'm sure you can lay some dimes w the welder
I have been binging your Jeep videos like crazy. Awesome content man! I love the way you break everything down and make it easy to understand. I have a 93 YJ that is a rust bucket similar to the ones you’ve repaired. I am having it quoted by a shop here in Western NY soon, but I don’t know if they have ever used Auto Rust products before. If it isn’t looking good at this shop, then I may have to tow it over to yall!
Thank you sir for your videos. I live in Maine with a yj and tj with bad frames. I now feel confident that we can save these jeeps
Thanks for the Jeep videos!
I have one just like it in the barn, great video.
I`m thinking of buying a used frame.
CT Jeep Owner RIGHT HERE, I am doing my rear end section as well. SAF T Cap for the win!!! Did you know They are in Cranston RI/ I live in Sterling so not a long drive.
OMG They paid...$4800!! US! I paid $4900 CDN eight years ago for my ‘96 Cherokee. It was in excellent condition, no rust anywhere, even now, engine oil is still clear two three months after changing it. I’m putting collector plates on it next year. I was very lucky.
I live next to and I'm restoring my jeep but if I can't figure something out defiantly calling you. Great video as usual ....Also safety cap shipping is great got torque box caps in 2 days....
Nice Job. Love The SHOW
dude you are a damn wizard
Im a mechanic in California and god damn them East coast cars are rough. Ive seen a few cars that are in snowy areas and they are pretty bad but goddamn that car is crusty
Good job buddy looks good.
5 stars just for the music......
Very good video
I may have to come down with my Jeep. Mine would need more body work then frame work.
If you were in my area you’d be getting my business right about now😔
Hey what happens when you don’t have a lift to do this work I’m in Maryland and I have to work from the ground
Hi. Awesome welding. Mine never look like that. I think it's the machine :) . But do you know of a source for the Frame section that arches over the rear wheel. I see that SafeTCap does not make it for a TJ. Thanks
I'm a couple hours away. how much are typical frame jobs?
i have a 96 xj and it has un issues do you ever do xj frames? is it worth it?
Question have you ever installed power steering on a jeep that never had power steering if not I have a 94 Jeep yj that needs power steering I have a pump from another Jeep but I don’t have a lot of tools to make brackets
I haven't checked yet....but have you done a YJ frame yet? I'd like to see that....
I have done them in the past but nothing recently. I'll make sure to film one if I get one.
How much does an average repair like this cost? Considering a drive to Connecticut in my Jeep.
Shoot me an email jpmorfius@gmail.com
How much dose the frame repair cost roughly?
If you dont mind me asking how much would this job cost.
How do you get weld to the section behind the upper control arm with the body close to the frame?
Fantastic explanation videos.
I live in Alberta Canada, so getting my son's 02 TJ to you is not an option.
One question, what do you use to cut the old sections out, plasma or angle gringer?
I use a plasma cutter.
With that measurement wont it handle bad?
I've never seen any vehicle have as many frame issues as a TJ.
Older Toyota trucks have similar issues due to Boxed frame design. Very rigid but at the cost of potential rust issues. Newer Toyota trucks like the tacoma have issues with frame coatings that is completely different.
Toyota says "Hold my Beer!"
Is this that much cheaper than replacing the entire frame? Also great job
It’s way more cost effective this way.
@@MorFabIndustries how much for a YJ fame to be done?
I love that bmw car ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️on the drive left hand not right because I am living in London and I never drive the car in right hand
I dont have access to a plasma cutter, can this be done with a good old oxy-acet torch...? Obviously hotter and messier, but doable?
Absolutely doable! Just messy like you said.
Who do you recommend for body work? 8:44
What are tubs
🔥🔥🔥🔥💯
Could u do a video like this on a unibody car. I've been struggling with repairing my car. I just have too much time and money and love into it to quit on it
I usually wont touch unibody vehicles. They are very difficult to get right. What king of vehicle is it?
@@MorFabIndustries 98 eclipse gsx. Really it's just one rocker panel under the side skirt by the rear wheel. But the actual unibody frame rails dont have any rust but they r really weak. I tried to set it on a jack stand on frame rail and it pushed a dent into my driver floor. The rocker panel I can handle just not sure how to strengthen the rails
Ahhhh those DSM's are notorious for that. I've had a few myself back in the day. The only real course of action is to see if someone makes something similar to a subframe connector that you can weld in or get some 18/16gauge steel and make strengthening plates and weld those in.
@@MorFabIndustries I've been searching all over the internet for replacement peices like u used on the TJ but cant find any. And I dont have any place to put a parts car or I would just buy a roller. What sucks is I cant even get it on jack stands anywhere other then subframe. It's just so crazy that it's so weak even where there isnt any rust at all
Oh I a 94 wrangler yj
Thats one reason why I hate living in the NE. I am into toyotas and they have the same issues. How do you go about charging a customer for this type of repair?
I’ve done so many and gotten a handle on the time so I charge a flat rate for them.
@@MorFabIndustries what's the rate? I've got a YJ that needs this exact work on these exact sections

MorFab Industries Thanks, I wish I would have seen your videos before my father in laws jeep was junked because of this issue
Quarantine is for sick people, WE THE PEOPLE better start acting like this is a free country but that is going off subject. , Subbed
I see you do a bunch of wranglers, how is it with the unibody on the xj Cherokees? Would it be any harder or easier?
5-6500$ never that thing is junk even fixed I’m sorry I love the channel but never
As they say there’s an ass for every seat. This one was bought for $4800 with the rotted frame. I wouldn’t pay that or even close to that but the market doesn’t lie.
MorFab Industries never man keep it up for real ur an animal at what you do
Thank you!
