Audreys daily gets a GT500 engine swap!!
XD
coyote swap
Put the drivetrain out of a V8 taurus sho in it lol
"We drift Audreys Ford!"
Needs to happen.
Noooo! Save the roof rack and get a skibox on the top, gloss black box would look goooood. Since Audrey likes to keep stuff on her, that would be good place to store some less used items!
DG that is bad for mpg tho
TFC Not considerably, new ones are pretty aerodynamic. Also they give ton more room, since her trunk is pretty cluttered already I think it would be solid idea.
Just what i think
Install sound deadener, im in the process of sound deadening my 96 miata and its 100% worth the weight
Wheelchair Sammy What stuff are you using and how much for it all?
@@nathan1922 im using noico sound deadener, I did the trunk and door panals and tomorrow im gutting the interior and sound deadening the rest of my car, the difference is night and day even with the little bit ive used, warning this stuff is pretty heavy and will add around 60 pounds to your car, but its worth it and fairly cheap, closing my door feels and sounds crisp like a thunk instead of a clunk
@@nathan1922 I bought 56 sq-ft of it and I will definetly have extra it was $100 in total, dont get dynamat its overpriced
I think you should've said Audrey's *Ford* escape...
Audrey's escape from his brother
I didn't think I'd find forehead king on this side of the internet
@@vasili3326 imagine lol. This is John's not jacks. And I know everything about jack so don't say " jonhs his real name "
@@Albertoepicness I know. it's just cool to see some fellow JohnsVideos fans on Gingium's channel
I have a similar set of H&R race springs on my Jetta and I absolutely love them. 100% can confirm that they will settle a solid half inch more than when you first set it down and the ride is a little stiffer but still very nice
Looks way better lowered and cleaned up. I would get some eBay non halo projector headlights and call it a day. Great job!
I would also follow ChrisFix's guide on how to restore your headlight lens too
I feel your pain on the control arms. About a month ago I needed to replace some wheel bearings on the front of my daily. One stuck bolt eventually led to another where I decided to scrap my front suspension entirely and rebuild. I was so beat by that suspension. Never did get to use a ratchet. Only a breaker bar had the torque even after the bolts started to loosen.
Dude I know the feel with shop troubles, my shop just got my new EJ255 after my old one spun a rod bearing a month ago. Keep in there, you'll have the drift truck soon and it'll be badass! Love the videos man, keep it up!
Glad to hear they figured out the header space issue! Can't wait to see it!
Best wishes man, hope things calm down soon. Much love. Sometimes things are down in the dumps, but they eventually get better. There must be balance :)
glad to see some more work like this, most vids by car channels are about mods and not the simple tings, so its a nice change of pace and also take it easy man work at your own pace and publish when you can doesn't make sense to stress yourself out about posting, quality vs quantity
same thing on my ranger. The channels get rusty and then the pads dont want to sit in the groove properly. Take a wire wheel to them and get all the rust and shit off before trying to install the new pads. It def help me on my ranger.
The Escape came out looking really nice. Good job Gingium!
No worries man, you work hard on these videos and we see it. Good luck in the future and glad to have you back👍🏼
It's crazy being from southern California and seeing this kinda of rust on a relatively newer car. I have a 67 gmc c1500 that's never been painted as a daily with minor rust majority surface rust.
Audrey's car is looking good!
Bringing back the subscriber showcase is an awesome idea!
Finally a video. Cured my cancer thank you 😊
Do a disc brake conversion on the rear!
Lowering is very nice for the older, boxy vehicles cuz it helps boost fuel economy. I'm lowering my 03 tj by 3 inches to get a +7 mpg
See you struggling with rusted nuts and bolts is pretty funny and very relate able, also a very nice edit in this vid! Keep doing what you are doing, we love your vids Caleb!
Looks great Caleb!
Finally! Gingium is pure awesomeness. Keep it up!
Thanks for another upload bro!
Keep it cool
Your amazing as always. I enjoy your video. Keep up with the good work
I recommend that if you have a very rusty bolt that won’t budge, try using a flame gun or blow torch to heat the surrounding area until you here a click. The bolt should loosen without much difficulty.
Thought you forgot about your RUclips channel! Lmao Good to have ya back!
Your new spring is variable it’s for different terrains. You get a smooth ride on bumpy and smooth roads
New exhaust?? 👀
Straight pipe 😍
Steel Eagle no? Ew
@@RoGuExPaNcAkE I'm only joking, lol
Hey man I support you! Take the self care time you need I know what that feels like. Keep it up me and my girlfriend love you two! Love from Cali
Taking good care of Audrey...nice dude👍
Dude led headlights are a must and it’s really looking good man !
I had no idea escapes had leading/trailing drums. Good to know
new wheels on new brakes is so satisfying to watch it's so much cleaner now nice work
Get weather tech floor mats
Get Husky Liner floor mats. Better
Nicholas Abraham I fucking LOVE mine in my Acura MDX
I think putting the white letters on the tires would look sick on the escape 👌🏻
Up next: Rolls Royce interior swap
Man, your vids are what keep me going! If you need time off, TAKE it!!! We’ll be here still lol
Thanks For the Feature Dude 👌🏼
Lol been waiting, good to see another video!
gingium! the gloss black on the brakes will show brake dust really badly. just paint them red, more HP anyways.
Hey Caleb Im buying a Miata today after saving for a really long time. Thank you for inspiring me with Molly over 2 years ago.
Get a set of "Nut Busters" for the rusty seized stuff. They work like magic!
As someone that works in a tire/brake shop... chill with the tire shine, my dude. Spray a little on the rag and rub it on. Little goes a long way. I've had to use brake clean to scrub off tire shine because it gets so slick it becomes impossible to service.
great channel.... keep the great videos coming
You need a torch for those bolts. How i deal with them. Dont need a large plasma cutter, but one of those walmart replaceable green/blue tank ones. How i had to do my U joints. Saves a lot of time
Great job on the car it looks great
You can also remove the springs without even taking the strut off just support the lower a arm and remove the center nut from the strut and just ease the lower a arm down until the strut you will have to remove the top bolt from the link rod to The strut you can pull the spring out if you push down on the spindle access to new spring is going to be a shorter one it will go in easier I did this on a 2015 BMW also it works very well
no problem gingium take your time.
Wash it anyway, he doesn't carium Great video Caleb. Looked forward to today's video.!
Goodness GRACIOUS... that looks so good!!!
Heck yeah it does!
I am honestly amazed on how that thing looks.
Put LED lights!
Love the new video.Keep it up
Get led bulbs for the lights... it will make the car look so much newer. Don’t get any crazy color. Just a normal led
only on this channel do we get lifted miatas and lowerd suvs
The track in the first half of this video was fire, and I doubt I'll ever find it. Lol
keep us updated with the drift truck! really hope to see it runing again
Do something with the Miata shell you have in the shop... 😊 Budget go-kart? What are you plans no that you stripped it?
Also, very nice job on the truck. I didn't know painting the calipers could be so easy. Makes me want to do my miatas this weekend.
Check the subframe on the front they tend to rot out and break on the passenger side and the wheel comes off
I'm digging this timelapse music
Buddy, I was waiting for your video for so damn long. Im having relationship problems atm and your videos keep me sane and you really put smile on my face
Sorry about that man! Im glad you enjoy the videos
And also have sent you my 2002 mazda 6 thru e-mail!:)
Yo, Adam's in town. You better catch him. Specifically Chicago for now. I'm guessing Wisconsin this weekend.
The joy of working on cars in the Chicagoland area they have tons of rust
Yup pain in the ass lol
The amount of salt they put on roads is insane
It's always a good day when Gingium uploads.
i'd recommend some bilstein b12 schocks, eibach schocks are basically based on bilstein components but eibach doesnt optimize them aswell as bilstein does
Hey I got an Escape just like this. Any recommendations for that bumper fender flare? Bc I got bad rust too that I’m trying to avoid. Lmk if you can, any help is appreciated!
I love that year of escape.
These brakepads are the easiest ones to install, you don't push them in from the inside of the caliper, you have to slide them in from the bottom, attach the caliper and get the springs in: there you go, done! I've done these brakes a 1000 times in different cars here in Germany. It's really easy, brake job front and rear: half an hour dude....
Why dont you use something on the threads of the bolts to stop them from rusting?
What did you use for all the black plastic?
Damn! I wish I had a Best Friend like you bro!!!
Got the same car ford escape with close to 215,000 miles. How do you have the trim so black?
Any issue with the alignment?
You should get an exhaust for it too...
I have a 2001 Ford escape. Do you know the size of the spare tire?
Those are called progressive rate coil springs. The old ones are linear rate.
how about a dual y pipe muffler delete on audrey's ford escape and some brand new leds all the way around...
I actually miss updates from Audrey's car. How's the escape doing?
Do you have any new updates on the Mazda drift truck
Halos, a low-profile lightbar and bull bar would complete this set up 👌🏾👌🏾
What undercoating did you use?
this is making me want an escape 😂
i suggest u change the lights on the escape.. idk why but they seem abit yellow for some reason (some like... xenon lights would make it look abit more modern and new)
do you need to create an account to see cars on car marshal because i can never see any cars?
9:38 look at that battery :'(
ok so ive done something on a ford escape like this and my 1/2 Milwaukee and takes the lower bolts of the shock out no problem what kind of impact and battery r u using Gingium?
Fender exit exhaust on the drift truck lol
Hmm, H&R lowering springs. I was supposed to get some of those for my car but USPS "lost" them 😤
Some new headlight would really really look good
You should put a shift kit and aftermarket valve body in the transmission next
I'd say the lift is probably one of the best purchases you have made.
Get 5% tint c:
Dont forget you have a welder weld a nut onto the bolt if it gets rounded
Also look into krown rust prevention you can buy cans of it or also go to someone who sprays it's in a shop
Been missing you buddy
7:01 when in doubt, grind it out.
jimmy oakes
how many inches of lower?
hey gingium why don't you bolt on the fender flares instead of using 3m double sided tape to hold them on
I don’t mind ChillPillium upload frequency. You always have quality videos. I don’t care if it take a few days to upload
Stance?
I hope gingium gets 1million subs
You need a oxy acetylene torch my friend. He will help a lot with rust
