With more off road events right around the corner, we work to install all sorts of new parts onto our friend Abby's Jeep Wrangler JLU Rubicon! Not only do we explain and demonstrate the all new Rock Krawler Adventure Series joints, but also some Bilstein shocks and NVM flush mounted tail lights! All in a day's (or two) work at the Lite Brite garage!
Hope you all enjoy the video!
What an asset Chris is to the channel. He makes everything look easy. Lite Bright covers all the bases. Off roading, builds, grilling food, humor, how different parts and peaces differ etc.
Chris, I really appreciate how you take the extra time to properly complete a project.
A great mechanic will always find a way to get it done. Chris proves that every video!💪🍻👍
This Jeep Day Care Center is top notch.
It must shrink over time 😂, great upgrades! Bec thanks for taking on the job of keeping Brittany and Kevin and Chris in shape! Much love and respect ♥️♥️💯🤙
I know Chris can often be like myself, if it's worth doing it's worth doing right. This taillight wiring is a perfect example of it. Always a good idea to have some metri-pack or Deustch connectors on hand when you run into someone else's mess. Oem quality, 100% weather/moisture resistance, and easily disconnected just like an oem connector. Plus they are actually quite easy to make! I crimp the solid terminals with a 4 sided 8 indent crimper and it holds stronger than the wire itself is, and doesn't leave a really rigid section of wire like soldering does.
Love these build videos guys! Chris is my kind of fabrat!
I love the shop videos. Chris is a pro and you can tell he loves what he does. The shop looks so clean and he takes care of all the tools. You can tell he has pride in where he works what he works on and the tools he uses. I always look forward to Wednesdays and Sundays videos.
I get the best info and instructions from watching Chris and the LiteBrite Team - even simple tips I didn’t think of, like using a vice grip as a third hand, and how to use connectors correctly. Beck needs a workout YT channel! I need Bilstein to eval my suspension, or Chris or Kevin. Good to see everyone home and safe! LiteBriteNationFillsTheirSteins!
Holy Sh!*. She's been wheeling on factory links on 40s this whole time?? I'm at a loss for words, that defies all the Wrangler tropes & clichés. That's a testament to,, "if it ain't broke don't fix it" Lol.
Not to mention all the trail badges she has on her jeep! That’s a crap load of Wheeling that jeep has seen.
Wow Abbey’s jeep is coming together nicely!! The bilsteins are definitely a upgrade. Can’t wait to see it on the trail!! Thanks guys for sharing these upgrades.
Another amazing shop video showing exactly why Chris is such an amazing mechanic! He knows his stuff & is all about quality in his work. Which is why we love to watch these. Keep up the great work Chris!
4:02 I think you intended to say either "less heat retention" or "more heat dissipation"?
Another great video from the Lite Brite team!
I bet Chris couldn’t sleep at night if he had installed something with such halfassery! Great video y’all! Much love from Louisiana
I love watching the technical install videos. Gives me great ideas on how to improve my own build. Chris is THE MAN. I wish I could have him work on my stuff. His attention to detail and desire to make everything "Factoryish" is what make him a true professional.
Loved having the whole crew through out the video. Can't wait get my NVMS featherweight front bumper. Wish they made those taillights for the JK series.
Chris and Bec are gold
Chris, here is a SAE/Metric size hack for you. I came up with it as I was going through A&P school. There had to be an easy way to convert SAE and Metric to each other's sizes. I found it, the number "5". To find the equivalent SAE size of a metric size subtract "5" and this is the SAE size in 1/16"'s. Example: 10 MM minus 5 leaves 5/16 SAE. 13 MM minus 5 leaves 8/16' or 1/2". Go the other way. 7/16" plus 5 equals 12 MM. 9/16" plus 5 equals 14MM. It works up and down the scale for quite a way.
Been doing it so long, that I just know. And 7/16 is an 11mm I think
Dan with Next Venture Motorsports know how to make quality parts for sure
From us badass Arizona farm boys that drive badass farm toys good morning Lite Bright 🌞
I really enjoy the Chris and Bek oriented how-to videos. Especially the video about the remote trans cooler in the LJ. I'm taking his approach and installing one in my TJ this week.
Not many people even bother to use a soldering iron these days, and of those that even bother to, most don't even know about using liquid or paste flux like Chris did. It makes the solder flow much quicker and makes far better and faster connections, which reduces overheating things. You can get it at a hobby shop. Just be sure to ONLY use Rosin Flux with Rosin Core solder.
The Rock Krawler lift on our JK has been just as Chris described...maintenance and trouble free.
Hail to the Garage Guru's. Outstanding as always! Laughed, learned, and like! Thank you for............
I really like deutsch connectors for everything, I just buy the knock off ones off amazon and crimp them onto the wires. Those connections are probably the only things on my jeep that aren't full of dirt and grime these days
👍👍 another great episode on ”how to do it properly” with Chris🥳
Nice to see almost everyone in the video, just missing Brit's lovely Mother. Glad you guys are doing great.
As a time served mechanic I love how Chris has a little layed back dig about the thing we find wrong,
I wish I had your chill Chris, Keep up the good work 😎👍
Next install needs to be gym for the shop ! imagine pulling up to get your jeep worked on and a gym to use and then coffee bar afterwords!
You my friend are a natural entrepreneur! I would definitely buy a membership to the gym.
Parts in 2021!!!
What a bummer. Feel your pain.
Once again Chris shows how it is correctly done.
Sweeeeet
I Definitely want Chris working on my TJ,might have to Win the Lottery for it to happen, But, Where there's a Will,Theres Always a Way!
Great Video as always!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸👍👍👍
Brit, Kevin, Chris, and Beck,
1st Here is to Kev and Brits Humbleness
2nd for for not only spreading the love around, but for trusting in Chris to make quality content, and NOT making a whole nother channel!
3rd for making it a true Nation of Lite Brite!😎
As always it takes a village to raise a (step) child and that red headed thing has a nation behind it
As before way much Kudos to all who are involved and keep em coming!
😊🤙
🙏
just leased my jeep unlimited willys and fell in love with it soooo a lease is going into a purchase so i can start mods and get him all set for overland camping and some mild off roading
You all do fantastic work without cutting corners.
Happy Sunday LB Nation!
Nice work by Chris to break out the soldering iron and proper connectors versus the prior work on the lights.. As an FYI for the Deutsch connectors get yourself the proper crimp tool and the barrel style contacts - even better than soldering for durability.
Excellent work as always
not enough Bec 😠….. 😆kding gr8 vid guys !!!
I like that it's a learning experience. not just here's parts and slapping them on. I like where this channel is going between off-roading, racing and proper mechanic work, it's a good experience all around.👍👍
😊🤙
Chris running the show. lol. Great job
Solid parts and solid lights…. Love the color of her JL. That was my second choice. Great video and looking forward to some more. Beck, Brit, Kevin, and Chris…. 😎💪👊
Chris needs his own channel
My jeep needs a Chris.
Just came across your video, I'm happy Abby got her set of Bilstein shocks, ordered a set of 5160's for my wife's jeep in January of 2022 and got the fronts right away. And in the middle of June still haven't received the rear set. With two weeks until we left for a three week wheeling trip had to put a set of Fox remote resivors, now we have miss matched equipment on the jeep. I guess I have Brandon to thank for all the supply issues, it has been a nightmare trying to set my wife's jeep up.
Thanking my Boy Brandon for the shortage on everything! Let's go Brandon!
On the other note, good job with everything! Super quality work and awesome crew! Keep it up!
Nice . Happy to se Becky is still around
Once the work is done they will return. Funny how that happens.
another quality job by Chris!
Hey, we meet her on our trip out to Summit County Colorado! We were doing the trail wheeler lake. Glad to see her Jeep is getting some love, she was super nice to hang out with!
You guys on IG?
@@litoornelas6409 yes it is under Iowa off road enthusiast
Love the team! Keep up the great work!
Man your lucky you found Chris. I'm glad he explains how to do things right.
Bilstiens are great shocks but they really need to work on there coatings
I hear they are in fact working on it. We need to do a video on it but the oxidation is actually on purpose which sounds weird but it’s to protect the metal from rusting. Of course it doesn’t look pretty anymore but for some reason that was what an engineer came up with a long time ago.
@@LiteBrite great to hear!
Shop videos…….👍. Coach Beck kicks a$$.
Those other taillights are Motobilt. I love mine because they're incredibly bright and include reverse lights. With NextVenture you have to run an external reverse light.
Those motobilts are superior quality, just looks like a poor electrical install. Can’t believe they threw so much shade at such a great product and company.
@@FrancisKarmanocky That company doesn't give them free money, free parts or discounts. The Motobilt tails are much nicer than the NVMs, just a poor install like you said.
Chris didn’t know what lights they were, Abby didn’t like the look of them and they didn’t fit for some reason. There was no shade thrown at anyone. The company name wasn’t even mentioned. We love Motobilt and Abby is a paying customer. You guys really think that every vehicle we work on in the shop just comes with free parts? Come on now
@@LiteBrite I did have to "tweak" mine to fit just right and then used your weather stripping trick (from spare tire carrier) to seal up around the lights. They are cherry tho imo.
Thank you for your service.
I love it you all do a great job always love seeing how you take care of these jeeps hope to have you work on mine
Probably the only female builder that buys her outfits based on what repair / upgrades she is making. She might be onto something. Keep up the good work guys.
Thanks, the power side is always the reciever. Gotta remember that because I always got confused on which way to put a connector on. I love clean installs only lol. I solder and put connectors on e v e r ything! Great vid.
Great video. We need a Abby jeep walk around
Nice job, Chris. Creative solutions & I like your approach to the electrical dilemmas.
Good morning and love the light info.
Nice work as always, Chris!
I love to watch Chris working on things he makes it all look fun
Y’all are so lucky to have a chris around
I wish I lived closer.. Chris is too notch!
The most crazy part of this video was when you had the wrong 5160, you were able to get the correct one so quickly lol. Chris needs to get a sponsorship with a connector company for next time a part is needed or missing.
I'm really enjoying the mechanic side of things, keep up the fine work.
Great Video - I just wanted to say I am really enjoying the shop videos with Chris and Bec!
You guys always keep me on my toes for ideas what I need next.
The work you guys do is just super clean and immaculate
Wiring solution on point!
Can’t wait to see his Abbey’s Jeep out on the trails
Well, didn't think about soldering those Deutsch connectors!!! I run Weatherpack. Got the crimper from my Matco rep for like 50 bucks. Way better than the 3-400 from other retailers! I need those arms for my JL!!! They are dope AF!! Fun seeing this video come from my home state! #beUTAHful
Chris you're a monster. Never ending knowledge! Keep it up.
loving these videos!
Good video......GO ABBY!!!!!!!!!
Very clean install
Think you co-mingled shock fade and cooling in your head and meant more cooling or less fade.
Chris..... you always forget the kiss when you say byeeeee! Lol. You'll get there! Love the vids as always and can't wait to see the new big green addition!! 😉❤
Awesome job as always chris. And it's also awesome that becks is part of the lite brite family now.
That’s just like the TeraFlex IR bushings.
One question, you said less heat dissipation, you mean MORE heat dissipation right? Since the oil is allowed to go to the reservoir and cool there? Plus since there is more fluid, it allows the fluid to hold more heat with out shock fade ?
Yes
Thank you Chris
does bec have a social media platform that we can follow?
She does not
Looking forward to hearing how well all those improvements work and by the way…That was a serious amount of food on that grill! Yum
Very useful knowledge! All things I have been trying to decide on...
Chris is a mechanical wizard
Good stuff Chris! Great upgrades and finish work!
Idk… I prefer the Motobilt tail lights. Not the execution. But the roundness of the light is what I prefer.
Another sweet upgrade.
I love Rock Krawler. Suck a hang low Daystar. Have Next Venture JT belly skids with UHMW kit ordered and coming soon. It looks like Next Venture rear diff skid will work with my Rock Krawler Pro-X cradle. If so Ill have one coming soon. I would also love a set of flush tail light kit for the JT. Then all I would need is a Chris and a shop. Thanks for entertaining me guys
Awesomeness...great content.....great garage stuff....keep up the excellent work......eagerly awaiting your next video...Safe travels
Chris is a boss!
Cheers air force from Colorado!
Save yourself time and get the proper crimper for those connectors. Well worth the money if you use them a lot.
Good job Chris.
Dynamic duo Bec n Chris
Brittany - You are so lucky to have found Chis - He is so knowledgeable!
Loving the wrenching vids
Nice work Chris... One comment about the shrink connector...ran into it one time... they need heat.. usually have it...but the last time I went to do a connection....didn't have enough. Ended up with a butt connection....and then came back later(months later) with heat to do the job right. Perhaps they were in same position...and the "later" just hadn't arrived(yet).
Completely great stuff. Keep up cool videos 😎
Never hear complaints when Bec is in videos either 😉😊
You need to replace everything between the bumpers and have alot of spares on hand for when that breaks.
