I am quite happy to see them acknowledge their mistakes and show how to fix them. Kinda makes the show more down-to-earth.
Idk man them steering hoses are geranteed to have some rubber and metal crud inside from the cutoff wheel … no good inside a hydraulic cylinder/pump
I knew when I saw the small tires on it the first time it was going to be sketchy and then when they got out there seeing how soft the suspension was that something was going to give. They definitely did a bit better this time around. That thing sounds freaking awesome 👌
This truck is STUPID SWEET! Those tires make it. Looks like a ton of fun 🤘
Much better... never skip leg day again!
They acknowledge making a "spaghetti factory of the wiring" and then add to it. For off-roading and submersion. Great plan.
I mean, if you don't have a birds nest of wires under the hood, do you even have an off road truck? 😂
No kidding what is this roadkill? hahhaa
Pretty sure that's part of the fun!
I know right?? then they proceed to use butt-connectors as opposed to soldering / heat shrinking for proper water resistance ….
Nice. A snorkel installed with no air filter . Guys, I really hope you’ll add some reinforcement plates to your front shock hoops before they tear out of the frame. Also a crossover brace between the hoops is standard out west for a reason. Those hoops will flex inward.
That's a badass build, love Square bodies and suburbans just look like beasts when lifted and big tires !
Then you'll love the Chevy Militia channel too
It’s completely badass! Lots of folks in the comments are talking shit, but only because their rigs have been on jackstands for 5-10yrs while you guys are out having fun.
These things lifted on big tires are just unbeatable. No other truck could ever look this good
May I first compliment you on this episode not feeling like a commercial for your sponsors. I like the stuff u did today. I would like to see you strip the interior, linex the whole thing inside and out, put in suspension seats and a killer stereo... either way this was fun to watch
Their lines seem authentic and not scripted. And no fake fun going on, they definitely had a blast.
Why did you leave your rear shock mounts BELOW the axle? You're just going to constantly hit them and damage them. Put them at 1/4 to 1/2 way up from the bottom of the axle to ensure you're not going to cause problems.
Fair point
Those hydro lines just hanging will get ripped off with in minutes of doing anything
this monster is heavy
When Ian Johnson was building trucks on xtreme 4x4 everything was over built and done correctly
Those hoses hanging down like that will get ripped off if you drove that truck up here in Canada. Good idea, not so good in application. You need to redo those hose's to protect them from getting snagged on stuff when off road.
Woooo , that Steering ram needs to be as Close to the tie rod as it can !! U don't want that ram push/pull at a Angle !!!
I can confirm the back axel did shift
One of my favorite builds. And now, it's better.
Love the fact that you guys built a suburban. And glad that you fixed some issues from the last episode but it looks like there’s still some stuff that isn’t perfect. 1 being the fact that you don’t even have an air filter.
I was looking at that thinking the same thing. Pretty brave
Is this the same suburban that had the rear end like 2 feet outta alignment? 😂 Should call it unDRIVABLE!
Lol this made my day! XD
At least they admitted that “Unbreakable” was bendable. And bend stuff they did. 🥉
Reinforce the frame where where the steering box mounts or that will be the next thing that breaks.
Bout time we get a video where the hosts are cool and have chemistry and not have personalities of a wet paper bag
That's more like it and that jump was awesome.
I've missed this project sooo much
So just gonna run it with out an air filter ?
Looks really nice on the 42s 👌
I like how you guys go play with your build as it was meant to, thats what Tracey does :-)
Love to see where this build has gotten to. I cringed a little when i saw the routing of the hydro lines, but we all learn from our mistakes.
I have my parents 91 suburban they bought brand new a year before I was born and drove it my whole child hood until I turned 16 then I got it cause at that point they wasn't daily driving it anymore for last 5 years and we did a partially restoration on it refreshed the 454 that my dad put in it few years before 7.5 inch lift with double off road fox racing adjustable racing shocks and suspension with mickey Thompson short course/stadium super truck tires on aero off road racing rims partial roll cage for weight savings and took out the rear seats and bench seats and installed 8 racing seats with racing belts cuse why not it's cool and fun and all you gotta do is release 4 pins and a bolt on each seat to remove it I'm 30 now and I did more work to it now it's my ultimate off-road toy I can jump it and all and it's not a rough ride like you think with the 454 big block, I have jumped it 50 feet and about 8 foot on the air the bottom of tires was out on sand dunes and it felt like I didn't even jump it landed so softly
What a fun build, hope to see it again on another episode.
The host acknowledgment to the crowd…. BRAVO gentleman bravo
The unbreakable mark II is a huge improvement.
Oh, ok unbreakable. Well howd you rip out the suspension then?
Not to tell you guys what to do but the hydro assist lines should be run and secured to the tie rod or drag link and run up to the box. The way they are now will get snagged or smashed into by rocks and sticks. If you turn the assist fittings to where they face each other it's cleaner and makes it to where nothing hits them.
Yep totally agree. Dont know what there doing.
Not to the tie rod or drag link but to the track bar.
@@TacoXL Your right
@@bobbymulwee7641 I've never seen those words written on youtube comments before. lol. (-:
@@TacoXL When your right your right. I run leaf springs with assist so I had to secure mine to my tie rod and run longer hoses but in this case with a non side to side moving track bar your right about mounting the hoses to it.
Aw man the show just become better and better!
Nice job, but I'm just wondering why you didn't put in racing seats with a 5 point harness?
Now that thing has some attitude with those bigger meats.
I'm an electrician and I have definitely had helpers like this guy lol keeps you on your toes...
NICE! I need to reproduce this in 1/10 scale!
I have watched the video this thing u build is wicked i have enjoyed lot more sitting here watching just like u been driving truck 😅
THAT JUMP WAS AWESOME AND DO IT AGAIN 😜 I WATCH END OF VIDEO 5 TIMES
Man I really want this truck.
20:46 Brandon was scared LOL
Might want to re think the position of those hydraulic steering lines
After you rip off the steering lines, route new ones down parallel to the track bar.
I have a suburban just like this and i absolutely love it
Great build................. 👍👍👍
And that right there sir is a new subscription
That pause and thinking about lunch had me laughing, great content
MY BROTHER SAID
HELLLL YEAAAAAHHH!!!
Awesome build guys.
I wouldn't submerge it with that big whole in the firewall. But I would had boxed the frame while I had the body off.
The Toyota FJ80 snorkel as it is almost a perfect fit, same one I used. You should have filled the snorkel with sand when bending it to prevent kinks, old school tube bending method.
Turn the vent around when splashing water, that should be a given.
Happy you brought back to life the Burb! Good work.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but did something look funky at the very last second when the tire caught the bumper? Literally last few seconds of the video.
I thought for sure they were going to flip doin the donuts at the end!
The buffer tires and snorkel choking the airflow really makes it look like it's struggling to spin the tires.
I liked the smaller tires better.
making the build water - submersible , while using ol school butt connectors 😂
That build is so precious tob driven like that
How much was the whole build including those last upgrades you guys did?
Wouldn't it be better to turn the snorkel facing the rear so it doesn't suck stuff splashed up hitting water holes.
That thing looks sick.
Awesome guys Awesome send it to the Vermonter 🗽🇺🇸🗽👍
Nice Build 👌
I would have run those steering lines behind the axle. your gonna rip those off.
Хорошая работа!
Отличный прыжок👍
Whats most surprising is the hydro steering lines NOT gettin ripped off 3 minutes into playing. Need to re-route those asap
I know square body fenders are relatively inexpensive and all, but the ugly snorkel ruins the look of it and unfortunately destroyed the fender.
Some custom quick disco sway bars are in need for the corners. 🤘RAD!!!🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Beast of a truck 🚚
that thin c channel frame wasnt going to cut it, start with a solid truck frame. Dodge was the first to have a solid boxed frame from front to rear.
lfg, pumped yall did this
*_The right tire size the the vehicle makes all the world of difference.._*
It's easy to miss a weld on a full frame-off build.
Your really running that thing offroad with out an air cleaner?
air cleaners are over rated, plus restrict air flow.
That is one Badass truck
Next: 12 Valve Cummins Swap
Love it!! Break it fix it Break it... repeat!!
Looks way better than last time with the new tires.
These guys are livn the life!!
Reminds me when we were kids marking how far we jumped with a stick or a rock.
I know why it's unbreakable now. Put some ponys under the hood. It doesn't have enough to hurt itself. Great rig guys. I like it
Man, that looked fun. I want one.
Next up, Overlanding!
You guys need to box the frame rails.
It looked like your shocks were making contact with the lower mounts. The hoses for the hydro assist I feel like should have been longer and managed by strapping them to the track bar. When you cut the hydraulic line with a cutoff wheel did you clean out the inside? 16.5-inch wheels? That’s something you should probably talk about. Also, it’s ‘lock to lock’ not ‘bump to bump’ when talking about steering.
May I first compliment you on this episode not feeling like a commercial for your sponsors.
Much better!
I need to see them attack the sand next
Ok, I run super swampers. you need bead locks to run the pressures necessary for the best traction with them (8-10lbs), also what were you thinking putting a snorkel on the outside of a full body, first encounter with trees/brush its gone. Other wise great full size build.
I was told by Grandpa, who was a farmer, to never pull hard in reverse. The reasons? You can't see if you are getting yourself in trouble cuz you can't see well behind you. The pinion and ring gears are putting tons of force on the coast side of the teeth, and are applying force at about 135°, instead of a flat 175°- 180° like heavy duty teeth line up.
He told me, "it works fine a dozen or so times, then it doesn't, you're broke, the other rig is still stuck, and you both are walking for another rig. The whole way back, tge two of you are complaining g about what a POS the rear ends are in whatever make you abused. It couldn't be your fault.
We used Scouts to pull John Deere, and old Fords tractors out, which had buried themselves to the axel.
Bringing back the unbreakable suburban..... um the title in itself is self explanatory!!! It will do nothing butt break... thats why its coming back and back and back again!!!
I. WANT. THIS. TRUCK!!!!!!!!!
I would turn the snorkel head backwards before hitting water holes. Use 1/2" for the coilover brackets in the rear.
An air filter might be good too
Badass!
I would have been nice to see each one of the jumps in one continuous shot and then maybe also both of them in slow motion so we can see the compression and the rebound.
That rear suspension is going to do the same thing again. With the length of the arms and the small angle they are at the rear axle will move over again. It needs a rear track bar/watts link to keep the rear axle centered! It to mention moving those shock mounts up at least behind the axle so they don’t get caught again.
And not sure on your steering setup. Those lines are going to get ripped off.
Not trying to be rude, but this whole build series really shows how little knowledge these guys have with building an off-road truck. The original rendition, the coilover setup, the hydro hose routing, even their description of why they went with bigger tires. The whole build screams "more money than sense"
And dear god, please clean up that wiring mess under the hood. With the budget this show has, there is no excuse for rats nests and butt connectors
Yup.
Offroad/unbreakable don’t go together…
The rear axle offset I noticed in the previous vid makes a lot more sense now….lol
Doing donuts in that burban, braver than I am I know that.
19:00 could've used a Matt's Off Road Recovery Rope....
