Customer States: Engine barely runs and has a severe lack of power. It also has the occasional no start or long cranking before it starts. So far I've found vacuum leaks, clogged ports, antifreeze leaks from the water pump and the electric fan is damaged. I had the fuel pump, filter, spark plugs, ignition wires, and a distributor cap and rotor. It also has a new coolant temp sensor, O2 sensor, MAP, intake temp, IAC and throttle position sensor replaced. The ECM / PCM has been replaced too. See part one.

This has definitely started to turn into more of a restoration mechanically it seems like everything you touch needs to be replaced that’s what happens when you go years with no maintenance
I bet we find out that this is actually Ray's jeep that he bought and is restoring ;)
@@yoster77 LOL!! Possibly, but what the hell, its a great watch.
@@yoster77 yep, my thoughts too or maybe its Mrs Rays.
The Jeep has definitely seen better days. . However, once the work is done, it's done and will be worth it in the long run.
Actually it could be for him to drive to and from work and parts store. That one ton drinks fuel.
Adding your own funding to the project, you are a gem
I've already said it once, but I'm saying it again. My absolute favorite thing about you having your own shop with your own rules is that now we get to see glow-ups just like this Jeep and repeat business just like that suburban from the last video! 😄
One more like for you Ray, and Lauren too. The helping hand.
I've been watching your for over a year and I think this is my favorite series of videos yet. Not sure if you planned it this way, but I'm really enjoying the mix of single-video fixes on other vehicles and then coming back to the long-term project every couple of days. When you get this Jeep all fixed up, I'd love to see you get another project vehicle in the shop. Congrats on getting your own place!
Yeah, there is just something about saving an old car from the junk heap, even if it is only for 3 or 5 years.
Yeah - the mix of long-running series and quick fixes is definitely more compelling!
agree love this series!
The series caught my eye because my wife has that exact jeep but black. Ray always has great videos.
Someone really loves that Jeep, if you spend so much time on it.
I have such nostalgia for this flavor Jeep. Had an 89 Wrangler Islander back in High School. I say rebuild those back brakes too since we are already this far into it, at least the cylinders you saw had a little bit of fluid leaking under the seals. I'd love to see you get to a level with this channel that you could have sub give-a-ways for rebuild work like this. Whatever you do Ray, your content is great, and your integrity as a mechanic is exceptional.
an ISLANDER? wow those were rare, with the weird body flares and stuff. Cool man
"Aieee! These gears are all worn to hell!" - it's a JEEP THING.
I always say "Surprises at work tend to suck". That differential reveal was one of those surprises.
Yes and no. Such a old car has all possible defects. I guess every moving part in this vehicle is broken or bent. Including the exhaust. I would be rather interested in the value before and after repairing and replacing everything.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 Definitely early junkyard before Ray improved the value substantially.
@@JP-lz3vk 👍👍👍 Yes, i don't know why i even come by so often to watch him repair something but its a good time. Maybe thats all its needed.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 It doesn't seem feasible to me. It will be worth more, but if it exceeds blue book is it really worth it? I guess if it has some sort of sentimental value, and you know what you have in it makes a difference too.
@@jthonn It does not to mee too. I would never repair such a junk. Maybe if its a Ford GT or a Superbird which i can sell for a profit.
A car for me, is just a tool to bring me from A to B in the most safe, fast and efficient way. I don't put any sentimental value into a torque wrench, a car or a pair of pliers.
Of course i know there are people out there who cry for their poor green baby.
As a auto and heavy equipment mechanic I have enjoyed your videos from the first day I found this channel keep up the good work I am located in Kentucky
i gotta say i you seem happier working in your own shop i can only imagine how it feels keep up the good work ray and lets get it to 12k like gravities it seems these repairs are getting out of budget for the custormer
It’s a jeep thing
Already done.
In your own shop you can stay for hours if necessary. Show up on off days. Must be noice.
Now its like 20k LIKES👍
I think the customer might be getting subsidized hopefully my thoughts are right if not maybe you can give him a job right or her job have a good day
Simple Kind of Man!!!! Respect from Canada 🇨🇦 🙌 👏 🙏
You should do a live stream and let super chats help the customer out.
That would be cool. And you never know, you might be the customer since its a giveaway project!
@@MarkTyhurst I am not the customer..
The Jeep owner is going to be very happy when you're done repairing all the problems.
Ray, thank you for being so good to your customers and us. Would love to see how far this project goes.
Vote: Should Ray get a loud phone ringer? Yes-----No
Customers is more urgent i think:)
@@MartinTheBear Maybe just a recording of the 'doodly-do'
What mechanic needs added stress in their day? The noisy ringer was making the shop crazy.
Yes, providing it's a doodley doo type
I need my doodleydoo!
Holy smokes at the damage to the spyder gears yikes 😳 😬 good find @Rainman Ray's Repairs
Ray, consider welding those axle tubes to the differential. This is a very common problem on the Dana 30/35 where the tubes actually rotate in the diff since they usually weren't staked well at the factory.
If you are looking at larger tires (33+) and/or a locker, this is a good idea otherwise probably not necessary.
@@mrq1 he stated it would get an upgraded locker, and it already runs larger tires. This happened to me on 4 cyl YJ with 31"s, so it can happen to anyone. Also, its not like he's not already there. A small bead is all that's needed.
I wonder if that would keep the axle tubes from leaking, my Chevy truck has a Dana 44 upfront that leaks from the driver side axle Tube at the differential housing
I think I'd just pull the 30/35 axles and get 60's from a superduty, You can get a good set for $500 and it's an easy swap with leaf springs.
@@bedlamite42 That's a great idea.
Get it fixed right and this Jeep will be a Gem.
I miss driving this style Jeep.
Too bad we aren’t closer, I just finished restoring my 87 YJ and bought 4 parts Jeeps and I have a set of axles that would fit that Jeep I would give you for parts… Probably the right gear ratio too, most of those were a 3.07 gear with the 4.0 Some had a 3.55 and the 4cyl had 4.10 gears. Either way I have all of them in good shape. Love your channel, keep up the good work and best of luck to you with your new shop!
If you feel up to it you should just go ahead and ship them to Ray.. It will actually up the enjoyment level for everyone and maybe add more subs... I'm only adding my thoughts you don't need to ship if it is too$$$ I know that feeling. God Bless this Channel.... Ray, Wife and kiddo Units plus all of the Subs
Probably could get a train of viewers to deliver it.
To be honest I think an actual swap would be less labor-intensive but I think Ray's doing a lot of things just for educational purposes but if you're around the corner you might give you a good offer on that rear end have a great day
@@michaelpressman7203 Oh for sure a swap would be much easier, been there myself plenty of times. From an educational standpoint seeing one tore down, rebuilt and then reinstalled is great content as well! I’m up in Michigan so sadly I’m a little more than a hop, skip and jump from him.. I eagerly await to see what all he’s going to do to this Jeep! I know YJ’s very well so it fun to see someone else working on them! On the restoration of my 87 I also LS swapped it at the same time. Maybe we could all convince Ray to give upgrade the old 4.0 a little 😁
Love the degreaser sound effects Ray!
Excellent! 👍🏻😀🇬🇧
Ray just to let you know that I feel that you have a great mind set up and a fantastic Spirit when it comes to making videos of mechanics. You keep your videos nice and clean without any type of for foul mouth speaking going on. You're a good man Ray my hat's off to you buddy. And with all honesty you the bomb!!!!
PS
I just wish you had somebody like you around where I live.
I have never under stood why more manufacturers dont put a drain plug in diffs. Makes servicing a diff so much easier and cleaner.
I think the thing I was most excited for as an evolution on your channel as it pertained to opening your own shop was the ability to do vehicles like this. I love learning from your diagnosis videos, but at the other shop you really never had multi part multi system restorations like this vehicle is allowing. It’s great content and I love watching it.
"Like a drywall anchor" is true and a funny comment.
Your channel would pop up in my recommended now and again. I'm guessing it's because I watched Cleetus, Fabrats, MORR and Trailmater amongst some others. When you left to go solo I subscribed in the hopes of seeing some builds as well as repairs. I'm staying because I like your approach and hopefully see more wife unit lessons because that's how I learn.
Great show and presentation !!!! I am a survivor of 3...3....strokes///Hey, I understand what you relay !!!!!
Nothing like the smell of old Hypoid (EP80/90)gear oil .
Glad video has no smell
Nothing like the smell of an old auto shop. That first walk-in in the morning, oh yeah.
That funky, moldy smell is hard to forget.
He didn't { CLICK } the SmellVision on yet.
That didn't look like 90 weight to me. Was the proper oil in there to begin with?
That gear fluid was very clean! someone change it and had to seen this!!
Well, Ray, you’ve earned my likes; and I’ve never really had any interest in the world of auto repair. Your approach to repair is interesting and gives me an interest in it. I’m more interested in figuring out how to repair myself and moving my left arm after being half paralyzed by a stroke. I think seeing you do things with your hands kinda helps me; if that makes any sense.
If anything, it will help you and others from being ripped off when you understand these things when you have someone else working on your car.
I think it's awesome that you don't have a huge interest in auto repair, yet Ray draws you in anyway. I've been fixing cars and trucks for almost 28 years and spend a lot of off time watching Ray work. I hope everything heals fully for you after your stroke. My wife had one almost a year ago and has come a long way and has a little ways to go. Best of luck and blessings to you.
Keeping trying to make that arm work! That's the only way to regain any level of function. When my wife had a left side PCA stroke she couldn't really read anymore. Couldn't understand the words she could read. We started ware children start, kids books. It took time but she relearned to read. Not as fast as pre-stroke, but good enough to go back to school. 2 years later she enrolled in classes to become a LPN nurse. She passed her NCLEX state exam on the first try at age 53, and has been employed as a LPN nurse ever since. So keep at it. You never how many new neuro pathways your brain can make unless you try. Even at an older age.
one click at a time...
Ray inspired me if he helps inspire you and other people and anyway I think it's a great thing have a great day
Ray , I always hit that Like button before I even watch the video 😂
Slide hammer = the shake weight of auto tools :)
2:35 Ray got the money shot!
Got your likes and heck I even watched all the commercials all the way thru instead of stopping them. There you go, continue on Ray.
An option for a limited slip on the rear axle - Detroit Tru-Trac - uses a helical gear setup instead of clutch packs - you don't have to worry about clutch packs wearing out - or adding limited slip additive to the gear oil.
G 80 would be cheaper and works great.
Nope. Eaton G80s have a notorious habit of destroying themselves compared to the more robust designs like the Detrot Tru-Trac.
I blew a Tru-Track with 30" tires. Just road use .I would go with something way more robust.
my truck came with a g80 and it finally grenade an put a hole in my cover I put a tru trac in my truck I love it can’t even tell when it locks in unlike the g80 would clunk really bad when it engaged what I’m getting at is my truck is 450hp 5.3 ls an I beat the living crap out my rear end with the tru trac and it’s been great for over 45k miles now on 6in lift an 35in Definitely worth $700 cry once buy once
that's what I put in to my 1991 GMC 1500 short box 8.5 rearend along with Yukon gears ,love it
I hate when other channels ask to hit the like button at the beginning of the video, how can I like it if I haven't seen it
You are a hell of a good man. I wish I had people like you to work with. Sometimes I feel like I’m alone in the “give a sh!t” world. Never change bro!
A lot more people in the world have his work ethic and moral fiber and take pride in what they're doing I just go through their paces and wait for Friday have a great day
@@michaelpressman7203 Exactly, but they aren't clout chasing. This video is proof that ray is low on the c vitamin, he just replied to my comment on some other video and denied clout chasing, LMAO
Project Jeep is super interesting - needs F & R lockers!
You know, for all the love of brake clean, I'm actually kind of surprised Ray hasn't, you know, cleaned the brakes....
Wow, Gear lube is much thicker, I thought. I guess all the heat breaks it down, hence... change your gear lube occasionally. Also, he may have mentioned, the brakes are shot and the wheel cylinders are rusted beyond.
Hey Ray great content as always.
Have you heard of a Quaife ATB differential ?
It's like a limited slip differential but uses gears instead of clutch plates .
It's cheaper than a limited slip differential.
Yeah those are nice... Very handy for rally cars😅
They're one of the Torsen helical gear LSDs aren't they?
jeeze i didn't even have a chance to like the video to help it out. its 24k already.
Looks like Ray is putting a set of spiders in that Jeep. Good on you Ray. Sometimes charity is the best advertisement. After working at dealerships for 32 years and seeing the lack of compassion it's good to see someone who understands customers aren't an endless supply of money.
I love the new format project style as opposed to the previous random vehicle. I also approve of the wife unit doing cameos to help you out. Brings an element of pretty to the channel.
I have to say Ray, this change was the best move you could have hoped for. God bless you buddy ✌️❤
I had a 1980 Lazer front wheel drive car. The pin holder was a non-bolt type and it failed. By the time I found it, the pin wore though the transmission housing. In the hotel parking lot, I took a file and carefully filed out groves so I could put a large hose clamp around the pin to hold it in place. While the oil did leak out, I was not driving it hard at the time and therefore only extra worn gears. Took a AL scrap plate I had on me, cut two pieces, drill a hole in the center of them. Used a bolt and nut to clamp them on both sides of the hole in the case with sealant. Wish I took a photo, but smart phones was years away. Drove that car for another couple years then the motor just up and quit in the middle of a cross country trip. Ended up buying a old used car in the yard of a house I was walking buy and gave the Lazer to the local junkyard. Was a sad day.
You might as well do the leaky brake cylinders too and while your at it the rear brakes, springs, and a coat of paint.
Lmfao at the Rain sometimes come from underneath 🤣 😂 with the Forrest Gump accent @Rainman Ray's Repairs
Ray, you weren't lying in the first video when you said this thing would be a parts cannon.
Jeep. Just empty every pocket. You will never be short of work being a jeep whisperer.
Looks like you’re gonna be replacing those gears 😂
WoW!!!! By time I hit the like there were 20K light gravity’s.
This is the luckiest customer in automotive history. Not only did Ray save their life, but he's gonna rebuild their Jeep too. 👏
It remember that window crank tool. I think I had to use it a few times.
While my background is in electronic repairs, watching your videos has helped me be more confident in taking on jobs.
My refrigerator quit two days ago. Under my Home warranty plan, I would be waiting for two weeks to get Sears here and still pay $75 deductible. I decided to jump into the repair and find some Rainman equivalent RUclipsrs to watch. That made it pretty basic and simple. I'm glad I jumped into it myself. It turned out to be a broken wire due to a rodent chewing the wire to the compressor's starter relay.
A quick soldering to the wire and it's working fine today and saved me $75.
Solder clicks.
One day I opened the freezer door and ice came flying out from the top shelf the ice maker and did the same thing you did did a little homework on RUclips or whatever took it apart clean the timer out put it back together and it still working fine it's amazing what people can do when they actually have a little confidence and get into stuff without getting dangerous have a good day
You mean there's anything left of the entity known as Sears, after that d.bag Eddie Lampert stripped everything he could from it, selling off anything of value (often, to himself for no actual cash, like the real estate, then leasing it back to Sears at ruinous rates), and generally destroying the company? I'm still surprised that a former Sears employee - or creditor - hasn't gone down to Florida or wherever that SOB is this week... and put a bullet through his head.
Since you have to replace the spider gears and probably the carrier you might as well just put a locker in it. Your choice if you go selectable or not.
Ray your viewers all like watching you work on cars. I hope u get enough subscribers to do your project
Don't forget to run a rag through the axle tube to clean out the glitter.
I'd call that a 'stripper' rear end - lots of glitter.... 😜 Also, make sure to check those axles (inside bearing races) for glitter marks and wear. Love the rebuild!
dual handed sprayer, yes slide hammer are very useful tools. I have a vice grip adaptor for.
my hammer. money pit
jeep.good you
took it out the berings
Hi Ray! I finally subscribed and I hope you get every one of the subscribers you need for the Jeep project! I’ve been watching you for a year and have enjoyed every minute of all your posts. Why has it taken me so long?
A year ago I was diagnosed with stage 2 cancer and found myself post surgery laying in bed, healing from a bunch of stomach wounds and watching all of your antics. You’re an absolute hoot! Right now I’m cancer free and should stay that way. My son Tommy and I have a really cool shop. We’re back out there again and every time we are, I always think of you. We got back to life wrenching on things and running half marathons (2nd hobby).
Why I write all this stuff is that besides all the things we learn from you, you’re touching peoples lives in a lot of positive ways and giving hope. For this, I can’t thank you enough!!
Great video as always @Rainman Ray's Repairs
Hadn't realized this was a giveaway project, it explains the amount of work going in to it.
Most people would've scrapped it by now.
What I was meaning to ask the other day: isn't that right rear shock boot a bit close to the exhaust?
Unfortunately I'm already subscribed and I do like your 'like' reminders btw, but I'll share this on my FB, you never know.
What do you mean by "giveaway project"? That sounds like it's supposed to be a present for somebody.
But it's just a regular customer's car, who initially came in for getting engine trouble fixed.
@@derGameplayDJ Sounded to me like it was a giveaway!
Well, lol, the exhaust system could use a complete replacement, too, so...
You earned my subscription by overdosing that poor rear end in parts cleaner. Well done....and as far as manpower goes....challenge accepted?
I'm beginning to thing that Ray is the actual owner of this Jeep. Might have bought it at an auction or junk yard and is throwing money at it to get it running efficiently and reliably.
agree, to make the show, or the owner just got lots of money.
And it's a giveaway.
I thought he never really cared for jeeps... He has stated that in previous videos over the past years.
Eh. I think it’s just someone that said I have 4 grand to spend on making it reliable. Do what you wish to make it safe/reliable. I have people do that with lawn equipment.
@@tcanthony2 true, he needs to advertise his honest ca repair locally, so we can see different cars.
Good time to replace those wheel studs so those spaces fit better.
This series just keeps getting better and better lol.
I don't like jeeps, I normally hit the like, but this comment will get you engagement without me helping to fix that thing.
Worth a shot 🤷♂️
@@RainmanRaysRepairs now if this was a customer with limited means, and it was their primary method of transport...or similar story, I would be more inclined to help...
I have that exact window crank clip removal tool for my 68 Camaro.
Based on what I saw on an episode of The Andy Griffith Show, mixing some sawdust in with that rear axle differential should do the trick for awhile.
Lol. I remember that episode. Wasn't it Barney's first car?
@@MrCPPG Yep! Got swindled by a little old lady.
That little old lady was grandma on the Waltons
Banana peels work for a couple of blocks also.
@@jimhurd3101 Yeah, I forgot that part. Thanks
You could always do a "Lincoln Locker".
It's reached 35000 likes!!! That means you fund the Jeep. It's rather unfortunate that there is so much wrong with this vehicle. It's started with a struggle to stay running and it's like everything else you look at is so messed up either from age or rust or both. Plus lack of maintenance I'd imagine.
I suggest checking with Holly of Mischief Maker, Fab Rats, or Matt’s Off-road Recovery. I bet between all of those fine folks, they could help bail you out of a Jeep jam.
6 hrs = 27K 👍 the bar has been set
Hello Ray, you use lots of brake cleaner I recommend you try the Wearever Part # W5090. It's non chlorinated and does not stink up the shop. It is also good for killing sewer roaches instantly 😁Just saying.
Well you did it Ray i'm a subscriber.........just watch your vids for the fact not all cars rust to hell in 3 years!
I have to go back and check, but is this your jeep or a customer with deep pockets and a desire to bring this jeep back to life.
While the axles are out replace the studs with longer ones.
6 hours in and you doubled the 12 k likes. Looks like we get a video on gear replacement.
Little bitty stinging rain
Put a True-track in the back and an E-locker in the front.
Hope some of these projects are paying the bills.
I have 0 interest in vehicles but mechanics is so fascinating 😂
Almost looked like someone welded those spider gears for a Lincoln locker. Then they came back and ground off the welds.
I'm enjoying this, I'm also picking up some tips, I've had very little personal experience with differentials.
Anyhow, my 89 YJ has got over 375K miles,, though some service has been done on the axles over the years, the gears are apparently original.
Nice job Ray. 👍
Something about standard transmissions wears out spider gears. I had a Mazda B2500 that had an extractable pin but the ring gear teeth prevented it from coming out. Rather than take the entire carrier out I just took a dremel grinder and played a game called just the tip with that one tooth, filed off just enough so the pin was free. Never had a problem with it ever again.
I was going to say that also. I would put a limited slip or a locker while you were in there.
spider gear and pin set are 150 bucks but you are going to need a carrier as well as bearings, most dana 35's on jeeps need everything.
This really is turning into a restoration. A lot of money getting soaked up in the project if the thing is going to get all the love it needs.
Keep up the great work. I love the fun and passion in the videos. You show great integrity in the job you do for your customers.
That's right. The square hole.
Love the idea of you keeping the Jeep project as low budget as possible but... All those repairs you've found are essential to a make it safe to be on the road again. I hope the owner knows that and can help off-set your time and money. I can't wait to see what's next.
I’ve been subscribed for about a year and told my buddies about this entertaining channel
Very interesting to watch.
Rear brake cylinders look so rusted that they could start leaking brake fluid at any moment, I'd definitely be changing them out for new ones.
WOOHOO easy 12k like gravities. Love the videos and this series is awesome. Keep ‘em coming Ray
List of all the things that will not need replacement on this Jeep: Horn, AC temperature knob. Yeah, that's pretty much it :-)
"Sloppy fit, but it does hook up." I've hooked up with a sloppy fit a time or two in my life...
What I really like about your vids is that you show the processes in a normal speed and allows us to really see what is occurring. Some others I watch speed up the process to the point that you are watching a show instead an ability to learn something. Also I am going to buy stock in the Brakeclean company😹
This jeep is the gift that just keeps giving for you but sadly not the owner the jeep looks to have had a very hard life from a previous owner.
