I love all these videos. Been watching Dirt Every Day for a long time, simply because you guys seem like real, nice, real nice people. I'm a sports car guy. I have a Miata. The more I watch this stuff, the more I want to buy an old Jeep and fix it up.
Feels like I'm watching my dad repairing a tractor and carefully explaining each part and step. Great.
Mic is so rad! Can hear you well!
"If that doesn't work get a bigger one". Yep, that's the Mechanics motto right there.
Your explanations of what you’re doing are excellent. Very helpful.
A++ for not missing the pitman arm with the hammer
Hey Fred! Watching you use that chrome swivel made me cry big alligator tears. You can find good very affordable impact swivels that work amazing. Very compact, and don’t break. Makes getting hard to reach bolts out with an impact very easy!
YEA! A new build with Fred! I have one of these Jeeps sitting in the backyard with a rotten frame. I will be following this build and really enjoy all the ones I have followed so far.
It’s great that you can reuse hardware on this kind of work. When I do suspension (and other areas like brakes) on my VWs, a lot of those bolts are “torque to yield” fasteners. Once you have put them in to the required torque value (+ often an additional 90°), they are not reusable.
Love this show. Some tv/streaming network should pick this guy up
Excited to see how you go with this. I know that it will be bolt on at first, but I imagine that you will do something unique later on after you get familiar with the strengths and weaknesses of the platform.
Nice to see a realistic budget build.
I enjoyed seeing you miss things and struggle with pitman arm. Real life, like many people in their garages.
thought it was just me who fought tapered joints :)
Sure glad you are still making videos. Great content 👍
Thank's for the content! Always good information. Dad would run out of liquid wrench and steal mom's sewing machine oil! Thank's for kicking that memory up!
17:15 used to have to do this all the time working on front ends. i laughed when he just tapped it later with no pry bar and it popps out lol
Awesome brother great information 👍. This jeep is going to rock 🪨.
he's talkin' 'bout shaft.
Fred can you also start doing vids on what you do with the old stuff you are not using anymore? How/where to advertise, how to price it, etc.
I don't usually wanna scream at my screen but: FREDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD, you missed a thing. lol keep on being real!
great video looking forward to the rest of the upgrades!
yay getting into the fun stuff!
PowerStop makes great OE upgrade pads and rotors that made a big difference on my Jeep
Rad!! Bolt on build!! So exciting and original!!
Great video!!
20:58 Quick Tip for disconnecting Brake lines without the fluid dripping out of the system is to: Open the bleed screw on one brake, depress the brake pedal to the floor and keep it there with something (I.e. a stick), then disconnect whatever you want with no mess/leaks. The idea is since the master cylinder is actuated it traps the fluid in the system and creates a tiny bit of vacuum keeping even what fluids in the lines in the line.
that doesn't make any sense. if you open a bleed screw then depress the brake to the floor then you shoot fluid everywhere off the bat.. and even if you leve the pedal depressed after that, the fluid will still come out
Obviously you catch the fluid using a normal bleeder tool for that intial pedal push. But no the fluid does not drip out of the system if the pedal is to the floor. You’ll still need to do a bleed later, but again this will prevent the system from draining itself completely from the revisor
while watching this , i have an overwhelming urge for a mug of coffee .. no idea why .. lol
I did that same job on my TJ years ago to swap in a D44. I wanted lower gears and a front locker and the D30 just isn't worth upgrading. I expected to scrap the old one but I gave it to a club member who bent the tube on his by running into a stump.
Great vid
Good stuff!
I thought i was the only one to call it the ugha dugha dugha
Fred you got take the screw out the rotor !
I've been wanting to swap out my 99 isuzu troopers suspension with some discarded jeep axels for 2 reasons. #1 IFS is limited to 2 inch lift and fender/firewall clearance for 33" tires. Thus I can locate it forward with a solid axel swap.
#2 there is a whole bunch of aftermarket gear and locker options for everything but isuzu. I don't plan on crawling, but do alot of off camber trails and exploring.
Most Of that should be Good with what you have
You know you’re on the right track when RUclips and Google load your 6K view video with loads and loads of commercials.
Looks like it’s going to be a great build! Since I’m from southwest Kansas, what’s on your shirt?
Central Kansas here, that's why I came to the comments, trying to figure out if that is one specific company or an association of them
Get the mopar performance brakes, they come stock on the higher trim JLUR and work insanely well.
Can’t wait to do burnouts in that!
You know Fred is worried really about money when he is worried about how much brakes cost. #DirtEveryDayRevival
Fred you are definitely not Dave, but that's ok because neither am I...🤠👍
I plan on doing a suspension upgrade next year. I’m going to keep researching this name brand seeing that I have a 4 door.
Dad used Liquid wrench.
To great effect
FRED! FUCK YEAH!
That was 61 strikes with the hammer / cut & edit / one more for a total of 62 smacks.
That is how I have always taken them off but have never had that much trouble. And always remember, don't force it, get a bigger hammer. That was a great explanation of how to take out an axle and how easy it is to over look something.
Those gloves point you out as a farmer, Fred. 😀
Ear pro, man. My ears hurt when you used that impact.
One out, one to go.
The Rockjock lifts are a bit too tall for my tastes. Curious to see how it turns out.
I find that a 32oz ball peen works better for vibrating out rod ends.
Go to Auto Zone rent the pickle fork Fred .
Where did you get the Kansas coffee shirt?
Ten and two coffee
R those glasses prescription r safety glasses
You move so fast , how much coffee do you drink ?
1st!
Where dirt head Dave ?
GG second
Fred is my favorite off-road dude hands down. Been watching him since the beginning. But these new videos are just a little boring.
Love you man but we don't need the first 10 minutes of this video.
Disagree. Lots of new and young people that are just learning. With Fred taking the extra time to explain what to do and what to expect helps in the learning process. And with Fred leaving in his video, mistakes are made by a seasoned fabricator, mechanic.
👍🏽👍🏽 up on the video. Thanks !
Also gotta love the shout out to rock jock. I have a lot of their components under my tj
Remove the engine
It's garbage
Install a model 3 like u did in the RAV4 transverse...engines are OBSOLETE
To much talking about nothing. Blah blah blah
