He could have a channel and /or a shop. I know a guy that did $1m a year in a shop. Chris has personality and better skills so he could kill it with a 4 bay shop and a good helper or 2
Everytime I watch these Bronco on Jeep trail/tracks I'm consistantly impressed at how the IFS Broncos goes places that you'd only see Jeeps or simiar. Amazing.
Agree! I have a 4Runner, and most other 4Runner owners bag on Broncos something fierce, but I'd like to see them even get a tire on some of these obstacles.
It cracks me up at how many people are butthurt over the price of the Braptor. It’s theirs, they can price it for what they want. You don’t have to buy it, somebody will. Not me (I’m poor) 😂 But somebody will. Lol. Great videos!
Burgos aren’t terrible in snow / ice. Pretty much any M/T is bad on ice & snow. Had 6 different ones in Colorado and they are horrible on icy snowy roads.
Another great mix of vehicles! I always thought Jeep should have developed the Liberty further. Breaking rocks in the wet sand! Funny - Pam says "Send It", then hide her eyes. And Phoebe gets a nose job! All it takes is money - BRaptor comes complete with Free JellyHair! Waiting for more updates on the future. LiteBriteNationLaughterInTheRain!
That dam Machainiak is off the hook. I sure like his land rover ride its sweet. The purple jeep too actually all of them are nice. The big silver jeep is all about perfect. Brittany Kevin should of put the bronco for sale after the expedition then talked price. Defiantly had a full fledged wreaking crew on that run. That looked fun thanks.
Britt keeps referring to the tires on the bronco. The tread pattern isn’t that important on rocks, it’s about the compound. There are so many competitors that will run bald tires on the rocks In comps.
That's why I bought a Jeep, but you have to know your limitations. Anti sway and lockers are a must, but balls out to you guys- your going through exteme shit.
We’ve gotten a lot of offers, so more than you think. 😊 Some people prefer mall crawlers, some people prefer an off road rig they know won’t leave them stranded. To each their own.
@@somethnaboutnothn4928how many off road videos do you watch?! These guys drive their 4wds with respect in comparison to others, particularly here in Australia. You never hear a rev limiter, it’s all skilled spotting and driving. I personally would love to own that Raptor. 👍🏻
These videos of the ifs is something that open my eyes to how capable they are! Which made me buy a 4Runner for a back up rig or for friends to drive when we go wheeling Chris has the driver mod / skills to be able to drive the trail with open diffs!
I have a 4Runner, the problem with them is that it's a ton of work to fit over a 33" tire on them, and the approach and especially departure angles are not great. I don't think even a built IFS 4Runner could even attempt this trail.
Those next venture fender flairs definitely took a solid hit , does look like the damage did transfer to the quarter panel though. You can see paint cracked in the door jamb where the door meets the quarter. To be expected from a hit like that !
The factory sheet metal did get some deformation. Both rear flare mounting locations have been hit a few times (prior to this video the prototype flares took some good ones too) so it's not surprising. The corners help distribute the force; but for anyone wanting to use their flares like rock sliders we would recommend tying the backside of the corners into their cage work for repeated abuse; otherwise the flares might outlive the body lol.
@@NextVentureMotorsports 100%. Impressive to say the least. All of that energy has to go somewhere. Let’s just say if they were factory or some of those Chinese flairs the jeep would be getting a new quarter panel and some! Good stuff. I have nemesis industries fenders on my jk, also aluminum, only because you guys don’t make them for a jku
@@eduardavanesov1177 appreciate the thoughtful comments and response. Those aren't bad fenders either. I will mention that one of our welders has them on his JK on tons/42s as well... and has convinced us to pursue the JK version as well once we're wrapped up on the JTs ;)
Open Headers Flying Raptors Broken Everything on Chris's Rover... AND THAT NOSE DIVE 🤣 I wanna party n wheel with y'all You kids are AWESOME L-I-V-I-N 🤘😜
sand hollow,, utah,, been there,, man,, Bronco is the key role here,,looks easier climb than all others,,,but the bronco looks only with 14,, 15 inch ground clearance,,, which is not quite adequate,,for such rugged terrain,, anyway,, bronco made it better than others,, best competitor here
What size tires would you guys recommend for a gladiator Rubicon I want 40" with a 4 " lift but I hear you have to change everything cause it will break everything. I don't do rock crawling just muddy trails and open prairie. I want 40 but 35 or 37 might be more reasonable. Any advice helps
40s wouldn’t be advised if you were doing anything where high wheel speed could possible meet sudden high traction. But you could also look at Next Venture Motorsport axle trusses and gussets as well as chromoly axle shafts front & rear. But you aren’t rock crawling it, jumping it, etc it can totally be done. But if you drive it like a rental or like you stole it, smaller tires may be the better route.
Dam, I would not have felt very comfortable on that trail in those conditions, some butt puckerin stuff right there… If I had 85k looking to be spent right now I’d be emailing you guys on that Braptor, really good deal 😢
You should hook Chris up with an actual off-road rig for a going away present. He builds some amazing stuff. But wheels a high schooler rig. That doesn’t stay together.
Don't have the mechanical skills like Chris and others have to do trail repairs nor the disposable income to wheel like that. Do like the content and learning how to do trail repairs. Thanks for sharing.
That's a super common thing with Rovers actually - they use a dislocation cone setup to deal with it. Makes a lot of noise but guides the spring back into place when you droop way out
Watching bobbed vs factory length gladiators I'm curious to the benefit of a bob?...If the largest issue with the gladdy is wheel base length (bc of breakover) and the bob doesn't address this but you lose 2ft+ of useable bed space isn't this a double negative?
The bobbed bed helps immensely with departure angle, turning ability in tight spaces, and even steep climbs (so the bed doesn’t drag on the ground and prevent your rear tires from reaching the obstacle).
2:09 You do stuff like this and still want $85,000? Hell no!! More like $8,500!! Money to burn in order to gain subscriptions! I would never buy this Bronco! The arrogance is stunning!
There’s no feelings hurt. 😊 Some people prefer mall crawlers, and some people prefer a sorted rig that they know won’t break or leave you stranded in the rocks or desert. If someone buys the Braptor, it won’t be to take it to the grocery store. 🛒
@@LiteBrite For him to carelessly knock it on the front end like that and still smile about it and then still want $85,000 grand, that really p i ss e d me off! What a b i t c h move! I am not talking about groceries. Nice come back.
We genuinely don’t understand where people are assuming (you know what they say about assuming) that we “can’t afford” Chris. He’s having a BABY. And he and his wife want to start their family in their OWN home, rather than while living under someone else’s roof. Which is a completely understandable decision made by both Chris & Pam, that we fully support….you know, because they’re grown adults and allowed to make their own choices regarding their own lives (and the life of their child). ❤️
This decision has nothing to do with us “affording” anything, and everything to do with them wanting what’s best for their family and their baby’s future. 🤙
On another topic entirely, I am interested in the Unimog if the price is right, and I can use that to justify traveling to the Off Road Wrecker games! I don't know how else to get hold of you folks so . . .
On the Next venture Motorsport fenders, could it hold if you step on them?, our idiot friend stepped on my plastic ones to climb the roof and had it pop off, not break thank god. Just curious. Thanks
Watching every one video learn a few things I seen 4x4 and only one tire would spin I be like I thought they was a 4 wheel drive lockers the only way to go
I think Wes is waiting for a new front axle to get prepped before locking the front. The locker and 35" tire combo isn't always the best with the TJ era factory D30 front axles.
Just curious as to why you’re selling the Bronco. Anything in particular about it that didn’t live up? Asking because quite sure this is that last place I’d get a “sponsored answer”
Honestly, we don’t necessarily WANT to sell the Braptor. But, almost no companies make upgrades for the Raptor (like portals, engine swaps, etc). Most companies are focusing on the base Bronco for these mods. So unfortunately, even though the Braptor is nicer/better than the regular Broncos, if we want to do a crazy build we’ll have to “downgrade” to a regular Bronco.
That makes loads of sense, thanks! Noticing the same when searching aftermarket mods and upgrades before deciding to actually commit; but hopeful that more companies will decide to venture. Thanks again :)
That aluminum fender flair pushed into the door sill pretty hard. You can see it cracked the paint. Door gap looks like it might have gotten weird. Oops.

Should give the Bronco to Chris for all the hard work he has done. Hope he starts a RUclips channel.
Rover >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bronco
He could have a channel and /or a shop. I know a guy that did $1m a year in a shop. Chris has personality and better skills so he could kill it with a 4 bay shop and a good helper or 2
I was thinking the same dam thing. Chris will be missed here for sure.
Why would you punish him by giving him that Bronco?
He would literally blow up he has the personality and the knowledge to kill it guaranteed. @@thomasleonard9685

Chris definitely listened to the Boss!! Awesome aluminum fenders Dan, great video guys ❤️❤️💯🤙
I got Nitto Teragrappler tires for my pickup (somewhat based on you talking about them all the time). I'm super happy with the traction in Winter.
Burgos aren’t terrible in snow / ice. Pretty much any M/T is bad on ice & snow. Had 6 different ones in Colorado and they are horrible on icy snowy roads.
If Chris wasn't my hero before he definitely is now
As MUCH as I love you guys!!!!
If you guys ever show up on one of our trails up here in Wa, I’m running away 😢
😅 That’s fair.
Liberty with solid axle and open diffs wins for me, surprising how much stuff he has been able to get over or through.

The views were awsome. Keep on wheeling. Happy Trails to you both.
Thanks, you too!
You guys definitely putting the rigs too the test Chris has maxed it out 😂❤❤❤🎉🎉and playing in the rain is always fun 😮😮😅😅😅
Looks like a fun trail! We love double Sammy.

Orange LJ for the win! The Disco close second for an overlander.
A solid 9 for that rocking chapeau Britney, awesome!
25K gentle miles!!! 😂🤣😂 fun video
😁
Another great video Lite Brite still rocking it babe.
I just love the look of a chopped rear end of a gladiator
Chris the rover is for overlanding but not beating the crap out of it. Time for you to build a kick ass wrangler
Why would he do that with his skills. #buggylife …. He could engineer a great buggy and he’d probably paint it nice too
Did you say 8 or 5 thousand? I'll take it lol. The value of that thing drops every minute I watch 😂😂😂
Depends on what you value in a tried and tested rig. 😁
No kidding, This thing is junked up! Who in there right mind would buy this for 85k after watching them treat this like sh*t! 🤡

Awesome wheeling guys nice to see chris and his Disco Diva phebes .maybe a slight rear end chop .make a vid 😊
I think his plan is to eventually move the rear axle back, which would help a ton
Wes needs some tru-trac diffs. The locker that’s not a locker. I love them

Open Headers
Flying Raptors
Broken Everything on Chris's Rover... AND THAT NOSE DIVE 🤣
I wanna party n wheel with y'all
You kids are AWESOME
L-I-V-I-N
🤘😜
That's the only thing I don't like about the new Bronco raptors is them big ol wheel flares!
whats with the street tires on the bronco?!?!
It would be cool if Chris were to move the axle back and the wheel well.
I believe that’s his plan - is to move the rear axle back quite a bit!
sand hollow,, utah,, been there,, man,,
Bronco is the key role here,,looks easier climb than all others,,,but the bronco looks only with 14,, 15 inch ground clearance,,, which is not quite adequate,,for such rugged terrain,, anyway,, bronco made it better than others,, best competitor here
Brittney, just so you know, FUCT is a technical term ‘ Failed Under continuous Test’ just in case someone should complain!
Watching the old Willy’s and S1 LandRover’s was a lot more fun. They seem to handle a lot better also!
so much smaller/lighter it's hard to compare. That's why you need one of both.
What axles did he use on liberty
Question for Chris, why an 1/8" toe out on the step child? How does it affect tire wear?
What wheels do you have on the Braptor? Looking into some beadlocks for mine.
Stock but have to have the option
What size tires would you guys recommend for a gladiator Rubicon I want 40" with a 4 " lift but I hear you have to change everything cause it will break everything. I don't do rock crawling just muddy trails and open prairie. I want 40 but 35 or 37 might be more reasonable. Any advice helps
If you aren’t rock crawling you can go 40s
@LiteBrite a lot of people tell me I shouldn't but I've been following you guys for years. I trust you guys. Definitely got the experience
40s wouldn’t be advised if you were doing anything where high wheel speed could possible meet sudden high traction. But you could also look at Next Venture Motorsport axle trusses and gussets as well as chromoly axle shafts front & rear. But you aren’t rock crawling it, jumping it, etc it can totally be done.

Chris is a good guy and that land rover just gives him nothing but issues maybe you should sell him the raptor 🤪🤙
Love 777s it’s quick and dirty cutting over Double Sammy doing Chute and after the Chute let’s go !
You should hook Chris up with an actual off-road rig for a going away present. He builds some amazing stuff. But wheels a high schooler rig. That doesn’t stay together.
Great video thank you!
Question: would you guys recommend the recon grapplers or trail grapplers for similar off road use with my Tacoma?
So...... The Ford, International Scout is for sale?
Don't have the mechanical skills like Chris and others have to do trail repairs nor the disposable income to wheel like that. Do like the content and learning how to do trail repairs. Thanks for sharing.
Time to "adjust" the location of that trail arm... move the brkt up and extend the trail arm to fit
See how the spring pop out be nice to rig a safe cable to those springs Incase it pops out it doesn't go flying into a person
That's a super common thing with Rovers actually - they use a dislocation cone setup to deal with it. Makes a lot of noise but guides the spring back into place when you droop way out

great job again.

Okay okay. I finally came up with a plan. You'll should give Chris the Bronco as like a uhm severance package bonus! Or baby daddy gift! Just saying.

Love the disco vids
You should give Chris the Bronco as a parting gift and so they have a new vehicle to transport the baby.
Ya he can have it for 85k 😊
I was about to buy a slightly used Bronco 😮
That tj spring 😂
Allll the work to SAS that liberty, and no locker? That’s kinda silly or something. Would be a fun little toy. Be funner if all 4 tires turned
I think Wes is waiting for a new front axle to get prepped before locking the front. The locker and 35" tire combo isn't always the best with the TJ era factory D30 front axles.
Guys in Broncos drink Bud Light. Spend $80 grand and another 20 to get winched up by a TJ with lockers on 35's. It happens.
Just a Land Rover doing Land Rover things haha!
Mods aside... Considering how beat your Bronco is, why not just do a raffle for it? You might even wind up with more money than you were asking.
