500 HP LS 1 TON Swapped Jeep on 42s! FULL Walk Around 💪
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 8 май 2021
- This Jeep is full beast mode! Home built 1 ton axles, home built 500 horsepower 6.0 Chevy LS swap and a never ending list of extras! Andy has been building this Jeep for years and I think you would agree that the juice was worth the squeeze. After spending the last few trips with Kapps (Andy) I felt that it was time to finish our walk around video and share these details with you guys. I get questions about this YJ all the time so I could be happier to sit down with one of my oldest friends and get specific on this off-road masterpiece.

Your filming is higher quality than most shows with a full crew and network producing them. Keep up the great work Nate!
And the music is first rate. Well done.
When I think thats my jeep have everything, you appear with this video.
Perhaps get more closeups of how the builder packaged suspension, engine, trans/ transfer cases... etc, in your walk around vids so those who are looking for ideas can see how the builder accomplished their goals. Awesome footage to show the capabilities of the rig and the in depth discussion of all mods was spot on!
I second this. Also any feedback from the builder about the challenges overcome. The detail about how the frame was constructed on this jeep to provide clearance for the axle in the front, but drop down low enough in the middle to protect the drive train was interesting.
Having some shots on jack stands with the tires off would be cool as well.
I will try to get some photos on my IG of the suspension and clearances as a quick run down some of the biggest challenges were the exhaust routing, coming up with a radiator fan comb that is small enough but adequate. And for sure font axle packaging between upper link mounts hydro bumps steering lines coilover mounts and still have full turning radius.
wow thats a crazy jeep, looks amazing
203 rage box would be a great addition adding a 2:1 reduction on command and ability for front only digs if needed off road design makes the kits to bolt right in between the trans and transfer case
Thanks for doing this. Based on extensive youtube research I'm convinced that if you are building a ground up jeep these days for rock/trail use that the meta is a stretched TJ or YJ, LS, auto, on 42's.
Kap gets a walk around before Franz!? Oh well... it's still a great Jeep too. Nice work on the video, Nate.
I've been asking Franz for a walk around for over a year lol
@@DirtLifestyle I guess we ALL are waiting huh lol
Check Franz out on tiktok he goes over his rig a lot
@@stevenlee6202 have to ask my old lady to follow him im not a tiktoker
@@DirtLifestyle what's the song you used in the start and end of the vid
THANKS to you , we fired up our first junk yard rebuild yesterday! Your “straight to the point” videos are some of the best. We have real jobs and no sponsors, so budget mined swap was the path we took. Keep up the GREAT WORK!
This should defenetly be a segment on your channel. Loved it keep up the great content. Keep representing the pnw.
Title them “Crawler talks”
First time ever to click the like button (and commented) before the start of the video. I have wanted to see more on that yj since you went to Moab. That thing looks like very little effort is needed to clear the obstacles it is on. Love it! We (son and I) have a 94 on 37's with a sbc and th400. It has a Pro Comp coil spring conversion that was sold as a kit a long while ago. Thanks Nate for listening to what the subscribers asked for!
Northwest FAB makes a crawl box that goes in between your trans and transfercase
Just what I was going to say. Northwest Fab makes crawl boxes. And they are in the PNW!
Ha! NWF popped into my head too! That would be a sick setup in that YJ
DUHHHHH hes gotta know about NWF right? this was all just a ploy to get comments?
I'm trying to find something shorter. I was hoping I did have to change t cases just add something but it's looking like maybe a Dana 300 and a reduction would be the ticket
@@amkaperick if you do go dana 300 the case becomes the week link. My buddy is bringing aluminum Dana 300 cases to the market that have the ability to be either side drop depend on what you need and can swap back and forth. In the future he will make gearset with several different rations and up to 40 spline outputs. Look up midnight metalworks on Instagram or Facebook. Also might do aluminum np205 cases in the future.
Awsome build! I am building my 89 right now and it was good to see different ideas! I'm running 3 link in the front, 4 in the rear and 14" fix coil overs, narrowed super 60 up front and 10.5 sterling I the rear. I couldn't get my hands on a 6.0 so I got a 5.3 with the 4L60E. The trand makes me nervous lol but it has a good 1st gear, told I can build it up.
Once again, DL setting the new standard for what a genre of video COULD be. Super impressed with that outtro montage man. Doin it right!
Well, I must say Nate, you nailed it. After watching the previous vids I certainly had my eye on that YJ! I owned my first Jeep, a '92 YJ for almost 15 years and it too, was Black! Cool! Although I now have an LJR... YJ's will always have a place in my heart and they always, no matter how they are built, catch my eye.
I had a black 91-loved it!
I've been planning my jeep out, and I thought I had it figured out. But when I saw his YJ in the video last week I had to rethink the entire build and needless to say it's gonna take much longer now lol
Love the build. Awesome rig. Awesome content. Keep it coming. I'd like to hear and see more on the front and rear frame stretch.
Hell of a Jeep build! 👍🏻 and good job on the video Nate, I think the format/editing worked well!
oh man, that shot with the mud flying at 18:05 was so perfect!
That was such a great type of vid to add to your arsenal, nate! I really like the idea of folks talking about their builds, their goals, and how they got to where they are now, and what they'd do differently. This kind of first-hand information is invaluable to people like me who are only a fraction of the way into their builds. My biggest takeaway is that I pretty much need to stop where I'm at with my JKU and get a buggy for the more challenging stuff, so I don't ruin my JK, which is by no means a trailer queen or grocery getter. It gets used hard, but Im not down for the whole body damage/body shop routine. I need to drop the swiss army knife idea and just build another crawler/offroader... to add to the, already bursting quiver of sand rails, quads, side by sides and a track car. Its a sickness, yes, and I'm chest deep!
im a two door guy, so I love this build.. hope to see more of it offroad..
My first jeep was a 95 Yj. Love this build!
Loved the montage at the end, one of the baddest yjs out there. mine wont even compare when it done!
Love. Just love. Great rig walk around style too; different, fun, and informative.
I stretched my Defender to 103'' that worked very well. I put my Discovery at 120'' and bobbed the back, clocked the transfer case, also the sills were removed and I built very close sliders that became part of the door jam sill and axle plates.
Thank you!!! Finally a video that covers wheelbase lengths.
It's so awesome you can make a video like this just 10 years ago we were pulling all the stops out to not look like a camcorder
I was surprised by the transfer case option but it makes some sense if you’re running the skinny pedal to the floor often. I have a simple 5.3 with a low lift cam paired with a 4l60 and a 2016 4:1 case. I’ve kept myself from doing full send due to the chain drive but man is it tempting lol. Awesome build and even more awesome he’s done most of it himself!
Awsome build, I'm running the stock rubicon transfercase 08 jk, behind a 4l80e that's behind an 8.1 big block, works awesome on my jk for offroad crawling, just did hell's revenge at 2021 jeep safari, also great on highway.
Love everything about that build. Amazing work!
Awesome!!!!!!!!! When you have a Jeep it is always a work in progress. That is just the way it is.
Great video Nate, and nice build Andy!
My 97 TJ got a 500hp LS3/4L80/Atlas swap. Went 5:1 on the Atlas. 4.56 with 37's. Does pretty well. Need to jump to 40's tho. You have an Awesome rig.
Love the Jeep. Very similar to what I plan to build. Great videos.
For the crawl box check out northwest fab they have a eco box or a black box that can go in between
Love all your vidz Nate they're helping me build my jeep thanks dude 😎👍🧐
Thanks for watching brother!
BRO YES!! More YJ goodness!
That is a bad ass YJ right there. I thought any old TBI 5.7 in a Jeep would be plenty of power.... Now that I have wheeled with it for a while and went to 40's I think a build 6.0 like Kapp's sounds like a much better option.
Hey man I really love the videos. Entertaining and educational. I was hoping maybe you could make a video on some tips for welding, aluminum specifically. I'm kind of self learning right now and could use some advise. Thank you for the great videos!
Great vid, as normal. I have a fully built 370 LS and 4L80e, I guess it really needs to go into the Jeep JK.
Love the slow-mo B-roll at the end!! You should do that more often when appropriate!
Cool build! Great in depth info. I'm getting ready to start a rebuild on my YJ on 42s so this was some great food for thought.
Keep up the good work!
Klune-V reduction may be a good option. Not sure if you can still get them but they are a nice short unit and I believe are a 4-1 reduction.
Great build. Thanks for sharing.
Great work guys. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing work and what a sound that makes!! You guys are covering all the best options with the different approaches you have. Great film as always Nat. What's the track you used at for the soundtrack for this video?
Sweet, I've been wondering what the specs were on that beast. Great job as always Nate!
I'm actually going from 107" to 115" with a back half. 107" felt too short for anything bigger than 40s on the terrain I wheel. Also I like to go fast. Planning to drop a om606 in also.
I do have to say Pitbull doesn't stand behind their products. Just warning potential buyers.
All 4 of mine (41.5r17) had the beads fail after 3-4 runs and maybe 300 miles. It was apparently a bad batch of tires but they won't replace them. 🤷♂️
Love a good old YJ build. Don't see a lot of people put work into them like you do with TJs and JKs
I think YJ's may be the new one to build. I am seeing more of them on the trails.
@@richfarfugnuven6308 you can find them for a good price. I wish I would've kept mine.
@Northern Jeep 94 I have a TJ built up on 35" tires. I am always looking for a YJ to do a trail only build like this...
New here to channel awesome video killer jeep. Keep em coming. Northwest fab has an awesome crawl box.
thanks for the walkaround, this is pretty great but i would love to know belly height.
also for gear reduction he could look at a ford 205 with a nwf black box that would give a 1.96 low range with an optional 2.72 low range for a total of 5.33 low range with both. that combo would also be an inch or so shorter than the 241 that is currently in there.
edit: offroad design also makes a version of what nwf markets as their black box.
Atlas 4 speed all the way. My favorite part on my Jeep. Should hold up fine to the power.
Great video like usual but how about some up close footage of the build. I like looking at other folks builds. Helps give me ideas.
Editing is top notch Nate!
Talking about turning radius. So my 2001 Ford F350 Superduty Crewcab Long bed on air bags and 35's is 22' long and if I crank the wheel quick enough it only takes 5 lanes to do a U-Turn
One of the best sit down "walk arounds" iv seen NICCCEEE!!!!
Northwest Fab Blackbox. You can put a NP205 behind it or even keep your 241. And you can clock it.
yup the cinematics were sick!
How did you locate the extra lights into the turn signal area. And add the mini turn signal lights. Mainly wondering what parts were used. Great video guys. Thanks.
Look into a northwest fab crawl box. I’m running one behind my th400 with a twin stick 205. Gives an additional 2.72
How much length did it add?
That's a hell yeah outro! Good info and great dialogue!
Check into North West Fabs black box. I run one in my yj with a 383 fuel injected stroker with a sm465 trans and np 205 Tcase, and it is a beast with the 42s that I run.
I love that this thing has a high(-ish) compression V8 on premium pump gas. What kind of timing advance is it running up top? It sounds great and looks like it performs very well.
I like the front parallel four link. What kind of numbers did you end up with for anti-squat and anti-lift in the rear and anti-dive and anti-lift in the front or did you just kind of wing it without using the calculator? What roll axis inclination? These figures are hotly debated by keyboard engineers and I am always interested to hear what they are for various rigs.
Your videos are great love the Fab work you've given me some excellent tips definitely keep up the good work just one question I tried to use the dirt lifestyle code on Barnes this morning and it would not give me a discount are you still affiliated with them or did I do something wrong
Kapps, look up a Rubicrawler from advanced adapters, I believe. Pretty sure it’s pre tcase and post tranny.
Rubicrawler crawl box go's between the 42RLE auto transmission and transfer case. ( stock TJ JK transmission)
I don't recall the length but what about a northwest fab black box it's been a while since I looked at them but they offered different gear options upon or ordering.
Northwest fab makes a great crawl box that uses parts from 231/241
Look into the offroad design doubler cases / magnum box for the T case.
Explore advance adapters rubi-crawler box yet? Don’t know if it’s too long for your work space underneath but it’s a solid piece of equipment.
Excellent video !!!
NP205 transfer case has a low and a high and you can twin shift it.
Dude, you talking beaver pond on south hill puyallup? Lots of memories there!!!
Nate super sick video man......kapp one of the most extensively engineered jeeps ive seen by a regular dude.... not by a dentist with $156,000 bought rig who has never changed his own oil....if you could help me with one question nate whats the difference between the 2 types of 3 links kapp has on his jeep?.
Hi Nate, regarding a lower box that goes in front of the transfer. a company called Northwest fabworks. may have just what you are looking for. ive been looking for the same for my toyota. super strong stuff. i think its called an eco crawler.
What wasn't mentioned was the tcase being from a GM truck has a slip yoke output for the rear, like that of a YJ and TJ. Aftermarket provides a SYE setup that strengthens the output and provides a yoke output setup, requiring a slip rear ds in place of the 1pc ds. THere is hack-n-tap as the cheap option vs the rear case output and rear output shaft. What did he do to his GM NP241?
Talk to offroad design and put together a np203/205. Plenty strong enough and they can help you set it up for the speed sensor
Thank you the speed sensor was actually one of my concerns looks like I have some quotes to get I was hoping to keep the tcase but it's not looking like that will be an option
@@amkaperick you could keep your transfer case and run a crawl box in front of it but that'll add around 8" to your drivetrain and your low range options would be 2.72 to 1 and 7.4 to 1 which I thought was too low with a V8 and an auto. The other option is one of the crawl boxes to a 205. That'll give you the 2.72 and then a 5.33 to 1 but then your speed sensor will have to be on the transfer case output shaft and I'm not sure how it would shift in low range.
@@z1kforfun I could set up the low range sensor on the shifter instead of the t case of there is no accomodation for it
Northwestfab makes the eco box and the black box that uses the same np241 6 pinion planetary with the same 2.72:1 gear reduction.
Check with Gear Vendors. They might be able to help with an under drive unit? I know they make overdrive units that will handle that kind of power.
Seems like we glossed right over the 14” Kings. I’d like to hear/see more about how that got placed/mounted.
And tuning. Maybe mention spring rates and corner weights as well.
Check out north west fab from Vancouver island! They should be able to help slow that thing down.
That Jeep is badass
Beaver ponds was the shit back in my highschool days!
North west fab makes a doubler called the eco box its a 2.72 unit that uses the 231/241 6 planetary gear set
Magnum 205 crawl box from Off-road Designs combines a billet crawl box that attaches to an NP205. Gives you the ability to do front digs as well. Shouldn't be too much longer than the Np241.
To long for his application. He needs to go titan black box from NWF.
Great video! As usual !
I know this is a really old video, but what did he go with for transfer case or doubler? I’ve gotten almost the same exact setup engine/ trans, trying to decide on my transfer case now. Going in a Ford Ranger wheel base 111. Thanks great videos and info.
Ain't no such thing as the perfect all around off-road vehicle but there are a few ideas that's time has come, for individual applications.
Have you checked into Offroad Designs doubler systems? Or possibly Northwest Fabworks out of Canada?
Great video and sweet rig. What song are you using? Nice spotlight footage.
I wish you guys where shifted over to the left side of the screen so the jeep was in full view. It just looks so sick
It's a Monster Man!
Hell yeah!
Awesome video thx
Sick jeep and video
Oh man that’s a great build....been watching Kapps on the gram for a while. Why would you choose a four link over a three link front end....is it for durability???
Check out the Offroad Design Magnum Box. It will give you lots of gearing options but you gotta ditch the transfer case you have now
To long for his application.
Hi Nate, check out Gearvenders for an over/under drive unit, it could be what Andy needs.
Great Video.
Cheers Aaron 🍻
,Nice work on that yj 👍
I'm running a 4-speed Atlas with a 2.72:1 crawl box and a 2.0:1 t-case low...be careful what you tell Advance Adapters as far a power is concerned...they'll limit your low range ratio options....apparently the Coyote only warrants the abovementioned ratios...my Scrambler with a 4.3:1 with a 2.48:1 1st gear is, in my opinion, is the ideal crawl ratio...the 5.44:1 may be a bit low in 1st gear may be a bit low...but you can upshift to allow for that.
You need a Dana 300 T-case. Strong, clockable, awesome!!!
Nate ya know that’s this summer’s project is 1tons and 40’s on my LSTJ
That is one SICK build. Awesome video! Question: what brake set up is KAPP running?
I'm running dogde2500 master cylinder on the stock booster. Chevy 3\4 tons front calipers in back and Ford 1 ton dual piston calipers in front. I'll probably do a TJ booster soon to get a little more out of them
