I was just about to run to O'Rileys for some part I don't need to get a new puppy with my O-rewards. Till I saw the disclaimer. So I just went and picked up the stuff I needed instead. Glad pira got a new friend.🎉
This comment made me watch the O ad
Love Pira’s new friend!
I honestly love the fact how Jared makes this DIY other people will say you can do it at home and their vehicle is on a lift. Love This!! Keep up the awesome content
Jared-you really are a natural spokesman now! Great plug for O'Reilly's that truly does not suck. You are now a natural in front of the camera and made one of the best auto store commercials ever. Great video content, as we have all come to expect from you.👍
Live Green
Mad props to you for doing that on the ground like most of the rest of us have to. I've done that a few times, but I just sectioned the frame and fabbed new parts. I have to admit those preformed caps look like a nice solution although it actually looks like more work.
To be fair z it wouldn't be wise to lift it with the frame so weakened.
Looking forward to this build getting out of control! Lets GO!!!
Watching you do the heater core has inspired me to look more into fixing my AC compressor then hopefully getting it charged/leak tested at a local shop.
You know it's a great day when Jared uploads a new video
Yup, favorite channels are definitely TQG, Legit Street Cars, The Skid Factory and StreetmachineTV.
Legit
I can honestly say that I never thought of which way to store an airbag. Thanks for the warning. I think I'm going to start storing mine bag side down, it sounds like it could be exciting.
Bag side down under a bucket and check it with a car battery
@@cdbarrett81 can't go tits up
@@cdbarrett81 😂
The Wizard has a video where the owner asked him to cut out a piece of the firewall so the owner can change the heater core without having to take out the dash/pay somebody to do it
Lmao I missed that one
@@andrewgarcia3136 just search for wizard crazy repair request. It's a yellow jeep. Tbf he cut a clean hole
Hahahaha great commercial Jared !! Almost as good as rich rebuilds advertising 😁
And very cute puppy 🐶
😁😁👍🏻
That Oriely’s spot was actually quite good! You do have a great presence! Haha Puppy Magni coming on there was such a treat!
Got my fix of Jared for the week! Just getting started in this episode but I can already tell it’s going to be another banger!! This man never quits keep up the amazing work!!
26:41 he is the Bob Ross of car repair, little gentle chat, just relax and let the scraper find its way - maybe a little skyline, some mountains, perhaps a tree and then enjoy your art 🖼️
I'm so sad that I'm not from the states, because we don't have stores like O'rileys to get good tools and car parts. Enjoy it in the US for as long as you can, guys!
I’m an original owner of a “specially ordered” 1997 TJ Sport. It’s been in my family since….all my kids learned “stick” on her, she ha right at 150k on the clock. She still drives like a dream….but 27 years in Virginia, and New England,took its toll on the frame. I had the frame “capped” five years ago, but now I’m considering a full restoration with a brand new frame…..and some upgrades to modernize the interior. (I figure I will spend around $15-20k) And then, I’ll drive her until I permanently “check out”. The cap thing works as a temporary fix….I’m going full frame replacement now.
We need a full length reaction video from Zack on this one 😁 thank you as always Jared and Duane!!
I had NO idea O'Reilly's did sponsorships. Congrats on getting yours, Jared!
I figured Jon Ross would've gotten one before Jared, to be honest. Surprising.
Yeah the thing is they don't need to pay JR...
@@danielseelye6005 I was GOING to say that, too. JR deserves a sponsorship SO much.,
He works with them as well.
He's just not great with the sponsorship disclosure then 🤣
Ad was great and the puppy was cute as hell.
That ad was completely worth the watch and I never watch ads!
That add spot was totally worth watching!
You touched on one of the best things about Jeeps and older Jeeps in particular. Parts availability. If you wanted to....and had the cash...you could buy an entire brand new frame and bolt it under there. Jeeps tend to hold their value so it could be worth it.
Be Jared
Does more work in a week than Freddie has done in 3 months. Keep it comin' man
I had a four angry squirrels, red TJ with a manual. I put 33's on it, ripped out the carpet, rear seats, and rhino-lined the tub on the inside and it went everywhere and was the perfect bachelor vehicle. could carry some cargo. fun off road, and convertible...fucking beast of a vehicle. It's not always about power. That was one of the most fun vehicles I have owned.
I’m not a big fan of ads on any content but know the need for sponsorship. It was just refreshing to see an ad for motoring related products on a motoring channel that was also humorous!!
I love that you're saving this Jeep. It's a one owner beauty and can definitely be saved for really not much money. Once you get it it all sorted, you'll love having it for running around town. Those 4.0 Engines are bullet proof, so it will last you for many years.
Can’t send enough love towards this channel and Jarred. You the man! Love the breakdown filming instead of all time lapse. Keep it up!
the commercial was totally worth it and I hate ads but the puppy was cute.
I think a good used southern state frame would be the best repair.
I work at Oreilly fulltime, and I love dogs more than people! Awesome advertisement
We have similar issues with Land Rover Defenders over here in the UK, the chassis rusts. Defender prices are odd, in good order they are all universally worth £15K plus once sored. As such people will recon them. Most end up with hot dip galvanised chassis swaps. There are whole industries devoted to keeping old Landy's on the road. Guys in sheds restoring any and every Defender they can get their hands on.
The replacement chassis for the LR aren't as good. Don't know if it's the same for Jeeps. If the majority is good repair is the best option. I know a guy who was amending and repairing a number of Santana chassis for replacing LR ones.
The essence of a Jared repair is: "I could do XYZ, this would make it so much easier, but..." 😁I love it.
Totally worth watching that bit to see the surprise! I'm looking forward to seeing more on the Jeep.
So glad you decided to frame repair this jeep. I bought one last October and have been waiting for the weather to warm up in the Midwest to do a complete rebuild.
You know what I love about your channel? You're authentic brother.
If you live in Georgia, go ahead and pre-pollinate the heater box so it's ready for spring.
Loved the ad! And congrats on the new pup!
I think it's just standard that the heater core is the first thing the OEM installs, then they build the rest of the car around it - always great fun spending all day stripping down, 10 mins to swap the actual part, then another day to re-install everything!
O' Rewards are WORTH IT!!!!
You know... I used to own a Old 1987 Jeep Cherokee. He was a old Pioneer edition, and yes. Old Man Keet was a HE! Sadly the blow his head gasket and didn't want to deal with the issue. BUT hell, 12 years of Faithful Service and 320,000 miles on that old Motor. I was happy.
You're doing a Service for that old XJ man! I hope she find her family.
Thats so cool that O'Reillys finally is a supporter since thats where you get parts so very nice.
Awesome O'Reilly commercial, I watched it twice for the puppy cuteness! Congratulations Jared you deserve your success!
As a Canadian, I have trouble saying, "O-Rewards" and keeping a straight face. Kudos on the inbedded ad performance man. You are a much better actor than I will ever hope to be. (I want to see the outtakes) Oh, and thank you for the amazing Jeep rust repair tips. We sure need that info up here in the Great (salty) North.
Seeing the Puppy was definitely worth watching the ad.
Congrats on the puppy! Great ad. I skip ahead for a lot of them because they're all the same, but you and a few other youtubers put in the effort to make them fun so I don't even mind.
Great video showing what can be done with some simple tools! can't wait to see how the tub repairs go, I am amazed the bolts came out of those holes!!
Not sure if he'll see this but great job editor Duane! The shocked Pikachu dropping in properly got me good. I had a great laugh at that and it was not expected haha.
Just saw you comment Devastator. Give Jared the credit for coming up with that idea. I just had to make it happen! Thanks for enjoying the subtleties of the Questionable Garage 😊 -Editor Duane
@@decaharms hahaha well done either way! You do great work with your edits of all of the videos! Truly doing good stuff! Keep up the great work both of you! 😁
I normally skip the ad bits, but for certain channels and sponsors I'm willing to just sit there (expect when they're like 3-4 minutes long..) but glad I did watch it this time.
Jerrad, you have most of the PPE on but you forgot to protect you hearing. As a J/M millwright I use those tools frequently for breaking up ice in -40 weather cond's in the winter on some of the machinery I work on here in Alberta's oilsands mines. My eyes and ears are the most precious things to protect. Keep the great content coming my friend. Cheers from fort mcmurray, alberta
Needle scaler was my best friend when rebuilding rear axle on my 4runner. Really removes old undercoating fantastically. Then gave a good new rust neutralizer as well. All removable parts, including axle housing nice and powder coated.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 when the airbox has that extra panel I was just rolling laughing so funny. The joys of used vehicles.
I always try to always watch the ads. Definitely worth it. So cute. Not sure if everyone else knows, YT can tell when you skip ads in the video, that means that the advertisers also know. Help out the channel and just watch 👍🏻
I really appreciate how you do this big job on the floor. Very thoughtful. Thanks for the great video!
Thanks Jared. It's a hoot watching you do this stuff.
A narrow hand held belt sander works great for removing spot welds. Use a purple belt.
Removing spot welds is the worst job there is.
I may have to try this method.
As a jeeper this is super cool! My wife lost her old YJ to the same rot in the same places. Love watching you work on this wrangler she looks like a sweet fun ride and definitely deserves the love!
Awesome. So great to see you working on a 4x4 again. Thanks. Maybe with all the fixes give your friend a call and offer it back to him for a little over the parts and repairs you have into it before you sell it to someone else just in case they are having regrets. Maybe.
Don't know if it's possible but if u could sell the jeep in Colorado you can get a LOT more for it, since a jeep (especially lifted) goes for a $2-4,000 premium here! The gateway to the Rocky Mountains has a LOVE OBSESSION with Jeeps!!! @The Questionable Garage
"Ohhhh...that was wet paint." Never have I related to a moment as I did THAT moment. 😅 Nevermind the destruction of pants 👖 during the fixing of vehicles which is also relatable. 😂 Thanks Jared! ❤Puppies❤
Can imagine the huge eye roll that accompanied Mrs Pink's "Stop setting yourself on fire please" reply. 😄
Heater cores are such a pain. Last one I did I was able to do a ghetto replacement by cutting the pipes that were hard to get to and the ones off the new core. Slid the body of the old core out, slid the body of the new core in and connected the old pipes to the new core with rubber hose and hose clamps. Worked great for the two more years I owned it.
Thanks really enjoyed it

It’s a Jeep thing so I wouldn’t understand, according to the decal applied to many TJs. Oddly enough I do understand. Simple reliable motor majoring on useful torque, not too explody a transmission unless you’re pushing it beyond ‘useful ability’ to ‘f**k yeah!’, civilised enough for daily enthusiast use, great real-person off-road capability and excellent OE and aftermarket parts availability. Great starter classic? Rarer here in not-so-great-these-days-Britain but I’d still make driveway space for one, even with the unburstable 2.5 4-pot in place of the (let’s face it) AMC six. My bro owned a 4-litre manual Sport from nearly-new. Loved it, even the comedic dive under even moderate braking 😆 Thanks for the memories! 🤟🏼
I'm glad I'm not the only one that talks to themselves while working on things.
Jared, yes familiarity grants speed, but getting things done right takes time. I have the problem of agonizing over something then ripping things apart as intelligently as my patience allows. Double edge sword in many ways. Got to rip and cut sometimes or inaction will neuter you. Glad you are better at it than me LOL. On the other hand I am damn good at fixing my screwups and making them look darn near cherry. Live and learn I guess. I have learned a lot of patience over the years and it has served me well. Just figuring out why something isn't fitting well as it came off will piss me off but these days I will work it and figure out why. Too many days trying to get something running to get to work and things aren't going my way have corrupted me in many ways but the teaching from my old shop teachers keep me looking to learn and do things the right way. It can be hell at times. Seriously though, love Jeeps of this vintage and older. I'd definitely give you your money back at any point and some extra. I'd rather pick it up at the project stage just to make her more my project. Most likely why I am broke most of the time but I am having fun.
Love that you’re doing it the hard way like most of us would if we were doing this. Keep up the excellent work Jared!
Gratz on the Vette drive! AND the ad was worth watching!
Been a Jeep guy for 45 years and have owned multiple jeeps of all generations. Nothing easy about changing a heater core ( CJ and earlier not included) your doing a fine job.
I just stumbled upon your channel. I was researching a fix for my 1997 Jeep TJ. I am now subscribed to your channel. A great video. Yes, old jeeps are like puppies, we must save as many as we are able to do so! (I am owning 3 different model years right now). Carry On Sir!
Worth it. Love the O! Always my first choice for parts and supplies.
Edit: your decision to do it as the typical shade tree mechanic would need to approach the repair is very much appreciated, and totally inspiring.
Jared, I am so glad that _you_ specifically are doing these exact repairs!!! I just bought the TJ I drove through high school and college from my mom and it has the same rust issues, but a lot worse. I plan to teach myself to weld and repair/replace the floor supports, body mounts, and some frame sections. It's daunting to say the least, but thank you for giving me a whole bunch of motivation to get out there and work on it! I've already purchased the floor support sections and some other things, but I haven't gotten the frame repair sections yet. I'd love to know which brand you bought and if you're happy with the quality and fitment. Like you said, "some cars have souls and they're meant to carry on" and my Jeep is 100% one of them. Again, thank you for making this video for the advice but also the motivation!
I'm so happy you fell in love with the jeep. Your series about it is making me fall in love with it too and making me want to find my own Jeep project.
Watching the ad spot was absolutely worth it! I did that heater core (and AC evaporator) job on my son's '01 TJ recently. Not the worst dash to pull, but that's never fun.
Agreed, one of the better add's I've seen.
I'm glad to see someone else trying a product other than POR 15 for frame rust protection. Lately they have became very, umm, we'll say "proud of their product" after so many RUclipsrs started using them. So proud that the average DIYer has been looking for addordable alternatives like you are using.
I was at O'Reilly yesterday, I'm going back today. I need a puppy. L.o.l.great add.
Hi Jarid nice workmanship!!
Can't wait to se it in the woods doing Scout stuff !!! Good job on the heater core !!! 👏
3:59 Yes, Orieliy's! So Lucky to have two great locations in Asheville NC! Great knowledgeable staff! (Watched twice)
Looking forward to next episode. Good work etic and good advices with protection gear is rarer than rubies in a lot of car videos on y tube. Kudos for that one. Btw adorable dogs you have and say hello and tnx to your family for understanding the long hours working to create content for us
Yes, the add spot was worth it! Such a cute pup!
Awesome work dude. Looking forward for the next episode
Worth it! Well done
that add spot was ADORABLE!!!!
Jarred's Wife: "Can you please stop setting yourself on fire?"
Jarred: "I DINE ON DANGER!!"
xD
(And awwww...Now there's a lil spotted FLOOFBALL next to the larger white FLOOFBALL...)
So what’s cool is when the heater box started to melt on my moms jeep and killed the blend doors I had to replace the heater box, and maybe the reason it melted was the fact the heater core was leaking but as I was pulling the dash out the heater core started leaking
I'll agree the ad spot is worth it. lots of good things to get your paws on.
Definitely a cool little add spot Jared 😂👌
Jared, my 1991 F-350 has the heater core under the hood too, I love a simple repair.
One of the best ad spots I’ve seen on you tube. Loved it.
Great video Jared! I have set myself before on a summer job when gas cutting steel and few sparks got into my pocket. Someone else noticed it and stopped me before my overalls burnt me. Worse part was listening to coworkers jokes about my money burning a hole in my pocket 🙄
well worth watching, awesome ending, top work
I highly recommend some of the 3m saftey glasses with the foam surrounds. The foam might not last in the sweat of the south... but they're comfortable if they last.
Down the road when you work on detailing, I would trying Cerakote Ceramic Trim Coat on those wheel arch plastics. It really brought a bunch of my sun faded plastic back from the dead.
awesome series!
I know there are people out there who would know that the buyer would never spot those rusted out body mounts... do it, and do it right! Well done!
so let me get this straight. puppies are NOT part of the rewards program? jared that was brilliant. btw that pup is adoreable. will edit after video. just had to say that.
Worst heater core I ever did was a mid eighties Mercury Cougar wagon. It was during the winter in Iowa with no garage. Pulled the whole dash assembly backwards and had my face against the glass reaching down in there to remove and replace. Worth it after it was done !
Mercury Cougar WAGON????? What planet are you from ???
@@Mr-er6fg This planet , actually. Bought it in Pierce, Nebraska. It was brown, with a V-6 and A/C. Only have one pic of it, though.
Did all that exact rust repair on my old TJ. Those inside welds on the torque boxes are the Devil!
The first time I saw one in a junkyard, I wondered what it doing there. It looked so good. Then I looked underneath. Ever since, I don’t even wonder why I see them there. I believe the heater core is the first thing on the assembly line
good episode, solid work, really enjoyed it 😃👍
These are the type of videos I like!!! Start to finish.....
