  • With no need for this jeep to ever be perfect, I try my hands with body work. Thought it was gonna be a easy slide through job but I found out why nobody wanted to fix this jeep back up. Unibody and structure are in an absolute mess , but Dex is determined to fix it!!

    Love your videos! I'm a stop in and see you one of these dayzzz. I'm disabled now, but I did collision repair for 20 years! I actually miss it sometimes. Just fyi on the header panel. I worked on mostly GM stuff, but I'm pretty sure that all those panels that look like fiberglass are actually SMC? (Sheet Molded Compound) even the ones that look like fiberglass are plastic. They have fiberglass strands in them, but they are held together with a molded plastic. In the future, if you're ever repairing anything you really care about? That $40 kit they tried to sell you, would adhere better than the polyester fiberglass resin. It will eventually give up its grip. I imagine the hot glue will stick as good if not better than polyester resin would have? There are several different epoxies that are designed to stick to the rigid plastic. (SMC)
    Keep em coming! I'm doing my best not to hold it against you. (The squatted Cherokee) 😂🤣😂🤣🙃💩 Squatted trucks makes me think of the way guys wear their pants around their ankles in the hood. And we all know what that means at the county jail. 🚀💩

    I removed decals for years at a detail shop. Use tar remover or paint thinner to break the glue down. Then u can use the plastic razor blade or a rag and it will wipe off fairly easy.

    You should get a respirator for painting. Breathing over spray isn't good for you. It'll keep you from blowing paint out of your nose for a couple days lol

    Got a quick and dumb newbie question,I recently seen your video about your beginnings and younger years and builds...
    My question is regarding cheap to free lift,I got leads and shocks in the back,01 Durango,I turned the keys all the way up in front as it has torsion bars...
    But my idea,as bad as it sounds,is THIS for the back..
    Use hollow steel blocks between the bump stop and axle when all weight is relieved from suspension 🤔
    Would THAT be a horrible idea 🤔 I'm definitely in a short ass budget but definitely want the lift and struggling financially at the moment so I'm a scavenger so to speak for mods🤷🏼‍♂️🤔🤷🏼‍♂️😔any advice or tips etc...

    As an amature, mostly self taught tractor painter... the paint settling in the air will fall down and cause the painted parts to have a rough surface... and on painting the plastic parts... what if you sprayed it wirh a rattle can first made for plastic to smooth it out, then sprayed the white coat?? Just a thought. I forgot that i painted dumpsters for a few months as a teenager. Had to take a physical and the dr told me to get out of that line of work. Its not worth it. That was with lots of floor ventilation, electrostatic paint guns, and full body suit and respirators. I love painting... but be smart about it and wear a mask

    Dex! Do you know Victoria Rose? She has a channel where she travels the US living out of her Cherokee. Based on her last video, she is about 4 hours away from your yard with a leaky rear diff. That would make a great colab!
