I come here in Sunday’s. It brings me old memories of what once was. Happy Easter to everyone.
Happy Easter brother
I miss Power Block weekends
It took me forever to find this when I came home in 18 lol im a life long fan
Nice project - coming along well. You guys have good on screen chemistry which makes these shows a pleasure to watch.
I like how guys make things less complex and how DIY you can get. It's a Interesting project.
From Uganda I appreciate.
I love the fact that 60% of the chassis and suspension are just built from their plasma cutter table, I love having mine just sitting in my 4000 sqft garage. Right next to the excessive pile of DOM I have. Its like they know how to build just like us regular folk. Unlimited budget and time.
LOL you think you need all that stuff to do that same job? That's rich haha!
@@CanadaBud23, the purpose of these shows used to be a "how to guide" for the average person.
Now it's just dudes taking apart a vehicle and reassembling it with donated parts from sponsors using equipment the average person can't afford.
You can do it with a hand plasma or a grinder with a cutting wheel and a drill. Today I have the privilege of having a plasma table at my disposal but it wasn’t always like that for me. I started with a grinder. Saved up and bought a miller xtreme 375 for like 1200 bucks at the time. You’d be surprised how accurate you can cut by hand with a drag tip, a straight edge and some clamps. You got to start somewhere. Learning from the ground up is better than starting with a plasma table.
As rusted as the underneath was I'm suprised the whole floor pan didn't drop out when you guys were cutting for the shock mounts! 😆
Great video. It was fascinating and amazing watching all the customizing and fabrication you had to come up with! Great job!
Good project. It will be great. One comment on setting up the rear end gears. You do the tooth pattern check before you put the final bearings on otherwise you’d have to remove them to adjust the pattern.
They said they had mockup bearings for the carrier so I'd bet they checked and didn't film it so they just "checked" again for the video.
*Awesome job!* And it looks shiny and so classy already! Great! I love how it’s getting done, actually!
Happy Easter, everybody!😊
!
Love watching one-off builds, especially on Jeep.
Now this is one of your great projects... Looking good !!!!
i loved seeing how you 2 can stay positive whenever you both got into some trouble.. "but theres a simple solution to this.." i'll go old ways, slap each other is the solutions. lol
What happened i missed? & They prob have a pissing contest
This is an interesting project vehicle
I'm looking forward to seeing it's completion
Trianngulated rear is great. Triangulated 4 link front is not a good idea due to this setup will feel bump steer unless your doing full hydraulic ram steering. For this setup being done with the steering box and drag link (all link steering) it best to do a set up with a panhard or track bar.
@6:28. Duralast has a new Gold series of hub bearings that are made from high carbon steel with a black coating to prevent rust.
what a dream to have all those tools and stuffs at your workshop. these are all men dream to have in their own.
Looking insane. Like too see how it goes offroad and would like too be passanger. Great video
For once I want to see a "budget" project on PN that uses common tools, not a hydraulic press that costs hundreds of thousands of dollars, and other specialized equipment. I'd like to see these guys press in bearings with the rental tools from the parts store.
That's always the problem with these shows. They think buying one part from a junkyard makes it a "budget" build. They never count all the money they have in tools or off-camera help from the crew or "special consideration" from vendors who just want to be on TV.
I get what you're saying, but a press at harbor freight is less then $150 bucks. I've had the same HF press for 20 years.
@@h2oskiaddict Harbor Freight now has the adapter that lets you add pneumatic foot pedal to your 20 table press, so stop whining people. Get a can do attitude, not a can't mindset.
@@mrrustygray nobody here is saying "I can't build that because I don't have fancy tools" they are saying that it's a load of crap to call this a budget build.
@@greenflavoredstuff - Exactly. “Budget build” implies that other than your labour everything is done as cheaply as humanly possible. These guys spent a very sizeable amount on this build. I guess it’s “budget” as opposed to a “price is no object” build but that’s about it. 💰 💰 💰 🚀
You should have went with a 241HD transfer case. Much stronger and a bigger internal chain. Plus you can get a new main shaft from Advanced adapters to eliminate the slip joint and use a flange mounts to allow to to use1450 U-joints.
These Guys Made Four Link Setup Super Easy, as long as one knows to splay there link bars at TEN Degrees. It Is. But maybe mount your top bars with Vertical Bolts.
I am enjoying these episodes, nice job guys.
Doing this while keeping a budget in mind makes this so much more relatable.
Your TIG torch is missing it's bump insulator. Its the big white insulator that fits in between the cup and the stock insulator on your 17 series torch.
Without it the argon will suck in atmospheric gas.
Looking Good Jeremy & Jimmy
You guys do some awesome work!!
If the diff drops in on final assembly then the carrier doesn't have any preload. The engine could have squeeked over a bit to clear the starter so the link bracket didn't have to move. Or just use a gear drive starter since those old direct drives are gigantic.
Get the Precision hub assembly at Oreilly Auto Parts and get a 3 year warranty.
This is looking great!!
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏
You guys make it look easy
Awesome work guys
Nice project, looking good!!
Aluminum fronr diff cover on a off road rig......yeah, thats going to last
Why not run a spool up front with the lockout hubs?
Only in the movies
Its for heat disapation. The round cover also mimicks the factory lubricating of the pinion bearing. Also sponsers and stuff.
¡Gracias!
I'm conflicted on this one. I appreciate saving this mail jeep, but not sure turning it into a bro-dozer is the best choice.
"now, we're building our jeep on a budget" LOLOLOLOLOL
They were gonna gold plate everything.
A easy budget of $15k+
I like to cut my fab parts by hand, then I tig and tig tig tig away. Meg only when i have to... I never see you guys weld! but hey its ok i love this Jeep mod...Do more please!
Never seen gear backlash set with the pinion and no shimming on the carrier😳
Something very wrong here, no carrier bearing preload....
I love how you always say your on a budget. To me a budget build 4x4 would be a 2-3K, and I don't have access to $100k in tools. This is totally irrelevant to people who are on a real budget. Still can be a little fun to watch and see what can be done without a real budget and all the tools you could want. ;-}}
You can't "build" anything of significance for $2-3K. A set of new shocks, bigger tires, and new rims will cost you that much...and you haven't built anything yet.
@@jamescrud You clearly don't understand how a country boy builds something. I would be getting parts from a junk yard. I would find lift blocks rims ect. I would never be trying to build a competition rig. They probably spent at least 3/4 of my annual income on that one. This is not at all practical for someone on a real budget. And that's not even talking about all the money in tools or labor. If you would like to see how that works try FabRats channel, that's a lot closer to reality for someone that doesn't make a very large income.
@@davidnorthrup3674 I get it. I wouldn't include tools in a budget though. Most people who do this type of thing enjoy fabricating and tinkering so the cost of tools and equipment gets spread over multiple projects. That pipe bender is nice but I wouldn't buy one just to bend 4 hoops. I'd buy one if I was going to build a custom chassis then also make some stuff for other people (paid work) so that I could recoup at least recoup the expense.
@Sixgunner dot org Try watching Fab Rats. On his channel he builds stuff all the time without doing a frame off restoration. He has a lot of tools, some of which he got and fixed so that they where useful again. Regardless, he makes things work without a huge budget. If these guys' didn't claim to be on a budget, then I would have no problem with them. I still like to watch them from time to time. It is just completely out of the realm of anything I could ever hope to afford.
Everything went in First try!
tremendo trabajo¡¡¡¡ saludos desde Argentina Patagonia, tengo una toyota del año 97, me encantaría RESTAURARLA Y MODIFICARLA PARA TRABAJO DURO¡¡¡¡
That is a siiick Jeep!!!
Wow 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 inside car , good job
Great vid. Good camera work. How did the rear disc brakes go together ?
Triangulated 4 link front with a steering box?
also that aluminum diff cover won't last long in the rocks..
That's what I thought. That's gonna bump steer like crazy lol
@@notsevenfeettall valving has nothing to do with it. It's the steering/suspension geometry. The drag link travels in an arc, while the triangulated axle moves straight up and down. That means either the wheels will turn, or the steering wheel will turn through travel. It can be made minimal with setting the drag link flat (parallel with the ground) at the center of the suspension travel, but it'll still give it some amount of bump steer.
41👍's up thanks again for taking us all along with you
Happy Easter to one and all
Hi from Sydney Australia !!
Australia. The home of The Stig's favorite airline pilot.
Building on a budget. But buys $$$ trusses when they have a plasma table. Which they used to make the rest of the 4 link.
Never had D60 that I could pull and install the dif. that easy. They are typically a PIA. A axle spreader is supposed tp be used.
Looking good, nice vid!!!!!!! 👍👍👍
Great job..
I was laughing when they said we’re building this keep on a budget
A $100,00 budget is still a budget build.
@@Grunt49 Ya because it's soooo much cheaper to put 39s on a Tacoma then a Jeep.

What’s the point of junkyard parts when you add $12k of parts?
Whitout them will be 15.000
Who said you had to spend that? This build can done within a few grand easy.
That's real funny, building on a budget, one hell of a budget
Sorry, you lost me at "budget build", when you said "CNC plasma table".
but they used cutoff wheels instead of a plasma torch to cut the body, see they are saving massive amounts on not having to run the air compressor .....
you can achieve the same thing with a cut off wheel or a plasma torch. They use these machines for advert cash, and to get the job done quick for the show. Anyone with a plasma table knows how to make the same pieces using a cut off wheel and bench sander.
Cara dubla aí pra português muita gente aqui no Brasil acompanha esse programa muito bom .
Good work Keep it up 👍 from Pakistan
Hello, does when you change the plane of a car from the smallest to the largest, does the kilometer meter reading change?
"We're building our Jeep on a budget?"
Aaaaaaaa-Ha-Hahahahahah Ah-Hahahaha ROFL .........................
on a budget ??!!?? wtf ?
Everyone’s budget is different!
Yeah, a budget when there's hundreds of thousands of dollars of equipment at hand.
@@adamfpv8294 your right Everyone’s budget is different, but most people dont have their budget
@Leo Coffy Yes Leo, I'm a qualified mechanic so that means I didn't make it in life. I then took a pay cut to drive big rigs as a company driver which is a retrograde step from even being a mechanic pay wise.
I'm just one notch up from say a drug addict in the public's opinion.
I have projects I'll probably never finish - such is life.
At least I can still buy lottery tickets. The hobby has become gentrified.
No pinion seal? Tilting that upper link perch down would make that link about 1 1/2 to 2 inches short.
I seen alot of fram twist without that cross member.
Also noticed you guys don't plug weld anything. I've had heim inserts tear out, well the dome tubing tore out at the cert welds.
Love the build. I just have a problem with @rockauto
So, did those axles get narrowed at all? Also seems like pretty huge brakes for such a flyweight.
The size of the brakes are to stop tall tires, the size of the rig is almost irrelevant.
Like “Joe Nobody” has a garage size Plasma Cutter.
Hey. This is a budget build. A HUGE budget build. They even said so. 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
Harbour Freights lawyers will be in touch with you…soon. ⚒
Wish we could have saw the full weld up one of the best parts!#weldporn
Hell yeah brother
So cool !!
I love it and DANGIT I want more if it. LOL
What about carrier bearing preload? Never seen it done like this ....You wish Dana axles where this easy to set up...
The build looks really cool, but I question if a Jeep that light needs an axle truss?? Maybe a bit of over kill or the sponsors need more parts shown on the video.
did the gear set survive for more than one trip?
I think you skipped some steps.
outstanding
Those tires really going to stick out that far out in the rear?
good work
building engines, I was always taught to torque a bolt to so many ft. lbs. but now I learn pound-feet is the correct unit of measure?
@@notsevenfeettall The “pound-foot” (lb-ft) is a unit of torque and a vector measurement that is created by one pound of force acting on a one foot lever. ... The “foot-pound” (or more accurately, “foot-pound-force”), on the other hand, is a measurement of work. Work is the measurement of force over a given distance.
I would have had the frame cleaned before setting it up. same with body underside.
You too can do this at home in your garage!
What if you just wanted two use a four sil engine with six speed and 13 50 inch wide just a driver not a trail driver and put a small tow along I am glad you only using a six sil
Oddly increasing appeal for a 'Mail Jeep' boxy cab & all !!! Even with original type power, with those axles, gear ratio & tires, it ought to crawl like crazy.
Stock shafts and aluminum diff cover. Yea it's "pretty much bulletproof"... real world wheeling the shafts will probably last a while with stock power... but that diff guard is gonna be caved in destroying the R&P at 1st contact
First,Happy Easter all!
😊
Same to you 😊
Conventional steering box drag link setup with a triangular 4 link?? Lolz
Lol you had to reinforce the ford axles
You guy sure are brave using angle grinders without guards.
I hope I can make it through more than 4 minutes...
How far did you make it?
Hi guys question i got a 92 318 how can i get more horsepower out of fuel injection
Wen pressing bearings on, please don't use a hammer. Take the part to a shop with a press and throw them a few bucks to put them on. If you mangle the bearings or get them off center, you'll wear them out in no time. It's worth the hassle and a little money to not have to take the diff apart again.
Didn't use any pre-lube on the seals, yikes.
Aren’t you going to have some bumps your issues by running a dual triangulated for link up front and still having to run a steering box with a drag link
100%. You can’t run double triangulated with a drag link. Should be full hydro or run a 3/4 link with panhard bar and drag link
Is it just me or can nobody else find the finished product of this jeep? I can't see the last video for this anywhere on their channel
Aluminum diff cover !!!!!! LOLOL
What is a realistic no sponsored free parts 50K.?
Guys dont forget to let your gears fall on each other
Truthfully working on thing's are easy with the best of every tool and thing's totally stripped down.
If anyone is watching this for "how to" set up a ring and pinion, take it a handful of salt... There are some really good, accurate videos on utube created by actual professionals.
Alhamdulillah,bravo my brothers.
I would have went with a modern 4.0 golden eagle inline 6 little bit more horsepower and torque especially with the extra weight to those 1 tons
Sure wish you’d paint it up nice.
Where can i get those shocks?! Bilsteins website is pretty much useless.
Does nobody paint anything anymore?
Help me understand what's going on with that steering box. Why a pitman arm if it is hydraulic? Why a box at all?
Hydro assist
I wouldn't have dropped it in like that ouch 😳
Why wouldn't you LS it?
Oh these builds are just so realistic because everyone has CNC plasma tables and massive Hyd presses, these videos are just advertising for companies tools and parts.
