I installed a @ujointoffroad kit on my 7.3L van, in my driveway on jack stands, with no plasma cutter, it was drivable in 2.5 days. 1 more day for the trans/t-case swap. I’ve had it for 5 years and it’s been awesome.
@@rj8372 I want to say it was about $12k. That includes finding a deal on used axles and wheels on marketplace, new tires and a new rebuilt transmission. That was 2017 prices, I'm sure it would cost more now.
He's always dropping mad money on his adventures. Lol. And since their gear is in that store, I bet you can write this off..... Scotto is playing chess.
UJoint really are the best of the best. Still have not had better customer service in any capacity than I did from Chris and his crew. Stoked to see them on Hoonigan!
@@leadfoot8593no way my almost 13k pound ambulance conversion would be able to drive like it does or have the capability with 37s like mine does with a quigley conversion 😂 I’ve gotten my rig through some stout stuff, but you keep on thinking that.
Much like this shop, my friend owned a Mustang specialty shop. He told me his guys already had the right size tools in their hand before even walking to the car. They would do a job at 1/3 the rated book time. You get a lot of efficiency from specialization and repetition.
After converting my 1994 F350 IDI Turbo Crew cab dually.. from 2wd auto to ZF6, and 4wd, and 09 F450 10 lug axles.. I completely feel your pain watching them knock it out in a day. What you are experiencing is what we (the watchers on the internet) experience watching you guys, and the rest of the youtube "garage" shows.. do a build in a couple episodes. Really makes you question things.. when in reality.. MOST shops take a long time.. but edit down. A shop like that one? Badass pros. Worth every dime.
I really appreciate the professionalism, cleanliness, and organization at that shop. Seems like they've really taken the opportunity to hone their craft. Kind of a dream job for a mechanic
Brian's camera work is amazing the framing, steadiness and angles. only thing not great was the audio but considering they weren't mic'd up it was better then most
I've followed along with Ujoint Offroad's builds since around 2016. I had the privilege of touring their shop a couple years ago and can say that Chris is a super friendly and knowledgeable guy and the whole crew is locked on and provide an incredible product! Its great to see them working with Hoonigan!
You could have shipped it to Colorado as U-Joint has an operation here. Justin runs U Joint offroad colorado and is top notch! Keep in mind for any work you need done on it next!
Nice to see Ox lockers going in. I had to wait like 3 months for mines to come in but they are insanely reliable, no wire harness, air pump or air lines to worry about.
Scotto, even if you feel you are not good at wrenching, if you like it then keep doing it. Don't sweat it if others do it faster or better or cleaner. Do YOUR thing. Hell that's an advice for all people out there.
N.C. Represent.WhoopWhoop lol we know off roading n grass roots builds here brotha 😅 .. much love n respect scotto peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on l8z
I'm currently looking for an Econoline and rusted out northern f150... Read it was simple swap... Figured I'd have to get driveshaft modified, but damn that's way more than I thought.... This is the definition of perfect timing, who would have thought Hoonigan would have saved me from making a mistake lol
This is nuts. I am converting an RV on a E350 chassis into a tiny home/overlander and I've been thinking about a manual/4WD conversion for a while. This video is literally for me. Fun fact, my RV has a triton V10 and duallies with the smallest length they offered. When I had it all stripped out, I got it up to 90MPH. 1200 watts of solar are about to go up, so its speedy days are over.
I love that they use all tried and true mechanical linkages. There is no motor in the way to shift the transfer case. Also OX lockers are the only way to go. If the cables do fail. You can bypass them with like a little plug. All 4 wheels will always spin if you want. Great build design!
Scott, nice shout out to the BOJA! Their Bo-Biscuits, cajun filets, and Ice Tea are THE STAPLE for southern comfort food. Van's got the proper stance now btw
Holy cow that old Willy’s Jeep looked absolutely tiny with the big man sitting in it. Looked like one of those rides outside of the grocery store that you put quarters in.
Got a real great team there, and when Scotto uses the term "pit crew", building something like this.... wouldn't it be social media gold to build a 4wd van, with these guys, and go full BAJA UPDATE? Them fabbing the parts, Hoonigan welding/bolting them on, both coming together to run baja in a ridiculous van with the UJoint guys? Give the 9-year trooper one hell of a good time, and we can get Zac back yelling BAJA UPDATE
Nice to see alittle indepth 4wd stuff on Hoonigan. Hey scotto I have the perfect tire/wheel package for ya. Method 20x12, 306's I think,in bronze with 35x13.50 nittos. Bought for my 07 crew cab 6.0 and rolled it month 2. 500 miles on em. My hole wardrobe is hoon by the way.
All these new Scotto projects, but still no Railcar Love the van though, is this gonna be Scotto's new rig for chasing rallies? There's some lovely fall colors in October up in Michigan's UP during LSPR, and plenty of great spots for pictures
I’ve been waiting for this day since you mentioned your intentions with your g-pops engine. Can’t wait for the next vid when he gets another ride after some more sauce gets thrown into it. Keep it up OG-triple triple🤙🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Henderson is merely 20 miles away. Completely understand trip secrecy yet bummed not knowing all the same. Would have provided you with some cool modified stuff to drive that has little chance of ever making to CA otherwise. Plus the Giant Legs of Henderson is a must stop when passing through.
Check out part 2 ➤ ruclips.net/video/fcO0DHbx9lM/видео.html
Just realized Scotto is the same height as the van o.o
I guess all the conversion parts bolt right on to the 3rd gens🎉

Same, plus a day to rebuild my transmission
How much $ to go with that time your spent?
This kit works on the 3rd gens with a slight modification too👍

I love “Adventures with Scotto”
He's always dropping mad money on his adventures. Lol. And since their gear is in that store, I bet you can write this off..... Scotto is playing chess.
This post should be a poll for an adventures with scotto show.
@@glorentzen hell yeah I second that.
@@blackaman88sir; everything they use for filming can be written off. Everything is a business expense when your business is making content.
Is that right? You love it? Wow bud
UJoint really are the best of the best. Still have not had better customer service in any capacity than I did from Chris and his crew. Stoked to see them on Hoonigan!
leafs up front in 2023? lame, should have went to Quigley.
@@leadfoot8593no way my almost 13k pound ambulance conversion would be able to drive like it does or have the capability with 37s like mine does with a quigley conversion 😂 I’ve gotten my rig through some stout stuff, but you keep on thinking that.
@@leadfoot8593lol do you know many Quigley systems we’ve removed?
@@leadfoot8593quigley is ass, from top to bottom. The leafs in the front ride great, huge improvement over stock
Road trips with Scotto needs to be a series

Thanks very much! Can always be cleaner and full disclosure…. We cleaned for a whole day before the guys arrived 😉

its more authentic the way they filmed it
Never thought scotto wanted to do a off-road build but this is so cool can't wait to see someone from you in the Van
He had an overland rig years ago. He probably took it apart and never put it back together
@@gregtennysondk, that doesn't sound like Scotto. Most of his stuff is good to go, just like rail car
@@gregtennysonis it the LR Disco you're speaking of? Has it been years?
I'ts awesome what all the 4x4 build guys do with used vans! All it takes is a lot of $$$ its really that simple!

Chris does a powdercoat in house, we do not. Would have taken an extra couple of days for us to get it done here.

👍🏻👍🏻
The south’s awesome man. You should visit more often. We need a road trip series.
I’m in OK and I saw church van on the highway!!! I didn’t realize it til now.
Imagine being able to walk into a parts store like that and just get EVERYTHING you want in one day. Wow
Yeah buddy must be nice lol
Scotto, even if you feel you are not good at wrenching, if you like it then keep doing it. Don't sweat it if others do it faster or better or cleaner. Do YOUR thing. Hell that's an advice for all people out there.
Hell yeah!!! UJoint builds the best overlanders. WNC representing!
🤘🏻🤘🏻😊

I didn't think I would be so excited to see some work being done to the Church Van but when I saw this was uploaded I instantly clicked on it!
Awesome y’all came to WNC what did you think? Hendersonville is a great city hope you enjoyed your trip! Loved the video!
What!!!?! WNC!! I drive by there all the time.
Wish i had the funds for a conversion on my bright green '99 E250.
You guys do excellent detailed work.
Scotto always has the best project garage videos by far
What? am I old now? Sheesh. Remembering Yahoo Groups makes me old now. Crazy. That was fast.
Great work boys! Scottos laugh is too funny. :). Scotto always has the best project garage videos by far.
"Two Dudes in the back, one in the front" "EH! YO!" Bless whoever edits these videos
Had a buddy with a 15 passenger van sitting on 37s from ujoint. . Looked cool
Damn this is like 15 minutes from where I work. I love/hate driving by there and getting drool all over my shirt
Love that Bojangles is getting the love it deserves
YEA!
Fun fact: I make those Fox shocks 😊 at Fox Factory.
That jig was legit!
YOOOOO I drive past this place on the way to the bike park! That blue flat bed is insane
Ahhh Scotto Miss ya bud!! Good to see you!! I like the diesel van!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
I love that a Scotto vid is always fitted with a mostly east coast boom bap soundtrack.
Always.
Scott, nice shout out to the BOJA! Their Bo-Biscuits, cajun filets, and Ice Tea are THE STAPLE for southern comfort food. Van's got the proper stance now btw
Indeed 👌🏼
I’m bout to move back to NC and seeing that BoJo’s got me all hot
Holy cow that old Willy’s Jeep looked absolutely tiny with the big man sitting in it. Looked like one of those rides outside of the grocery store that you put quarters in.
Cool scotto was here in Asheville
I have been following ujoints builds for years! Love to see the Collab
Man I work near ujoint in NC and pass it every day and I swear that pickup van has been behind me idk how many times
Gotta see a camping trip with this rig!
What a great conversion. Those guys are animals. Have that down to a science.

shout out to Scotto for putting in that work on the van 💪
He did try but there are only so many hands/bodies that can be under there at a given moment!
Zaxbys is another spot down south that's fire 🔥 and churches chicken !!
nothing better than a perfect joint
I’m so glad you guys did this collab, I’m glad to see Chris expanding ujoint.
You need to wrap it, like the old tamiya lunchbox R/C van
Scotto and Zach are the best at these

I don’t know how this will go at Gymkhana Grid, but at least it’s getting done! 😜
You can just drive THROUGH the obstacles with this.
This should be called Scotto's Humbling Adventure
All these new Scotto projects, but still no Railcar
Love the van though, is this gonna be Scotto's new rig for chasing rallies? There's some lovely fall colors in October up in Michigan's UP during LSPR, and plenty of great spots for pictures
Let’s go !!! Rubicon trip ???!

This gives me a few ideas, if I can get around to them
Ujoint is legit legit. Good call Scotto
scotto need more parthership with shop like this to finish his project
So excited for this build!!!
My god that thing is sick.
Can’t wait for the road trip.👌
Scotto is the king of the sleepers 🎉🎉🎉
scotto should just make a food channel the ammount of times he mentions food in the exclusive episodes he's in
this is the difference between working at a shop on flat rate vs working hourly and filming lmao
Dude all I can say is that's one badass team
🤘🏻🤘🏻
As a born and raised Carolinian, I forget sometimes most of the country doesn't have Bojangles.
Love U-Joint. This is gonna be awesome.
Let's GO! Scotto doing Burnie's in the church van!
Imagine how quickly Ujoint could get it done if they didn't record. They are a machine!
Van's forever
I legit saw on Instagram today by hotrod magazine the off-road bus 😅
That’s badass Brian, thanks, now I want one!
The best van builder in the game!
👊🏻
What a superstar pit crew !!
That thing is sick!!🔥🔥🔥
Fastest Scotto build ever. Funny he was hands off for it.
Fuck man, hadn't had Bojangles in a minute. Shits bringin me back.
would love to have this on my '99
Great work boys! Scottos laugh is too funny. :)
❤dirty south getting it dun 🤣💥🔥👍👍👊😎🍻
Vanaconda? That's awesome!
Man you gotta finish that disco you started years back. Shit looked so hype.
This is the perfect vehicle for the **prestine** streets of L.A.... 😁😜
Yeah, "pristine thoroughfares" of Los Angeles are far too entitled for such a build.
Damn , my van needs this
LOL! yup. They did the work like it's supposed to be done.
ONE DAY
More to come 👌🏼
bo biscuits man they change your life
I wanted to do this when I had a van.
This needs to be called the HOLEY ROLLER
AJ's 4x4 Vans is right here in the PNW. Not next door but way closer than NC:)
We've already had to fix one of theirs, have another inbound. ruclips.net/video/ZPlIH4s61Nw/видео.html
Very good, noting fron China
Yall need to vacay in Gatlinburg sometime soon. LMK when, and I can show yall around like kings. Special access everywhere. Sorta like Rabbit

Scotto wish I had known youd be coming through Arkansas. I'd have ask you to stop by my Coffee shop. Given you guys breakfast or lunch.
vans are so sick
