- This is the second half of day two. From Little Sluice to Rubicon Springs. Thanks to Tecovas for filming BAM BAM's roll over and not dropping the camera when it happened. For more cool Willys footage, visit the RUclips channels of Stan Fuller, Tecovas, Jeepevans, MudOxRacing
I just need to say. The man with the blue one at the rear, he is an absolute perfect awesome 4 wheeler. Perfect driving, everytime. Perfect throttle, wheel location. Angles. Wow. That man is good!
I love the technique that these war Jeeps use - drive until metal hits rock, stop back up until metal hits rock, then go forward again and hope that metal does not hit rock.. lol
These videos prove those old Willys are incredibly tough.

Bam Bam kinda fits 😁
old willys jeeps are the ww2 steel soldiers , yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever ( ONLY IN A JEEP ) OOOHHH RAHHH , SEMPER FI
of course its loaded with 2 fatasses
I hope fella who rolled his jeep will convince the guys not wearing seatbelts and the driver of the blue jeep without a roll bar to reconsider their choices in future Rubicon adventures. It was a great video...thanks for posting.
I agree, i was just stopped along that trail many years ago eating and the guy next to me forgot there was a rock in front of him after eating lunch, rolled his FJ40 while the rest of us were not even watching the guy, we were just eating lunch, good thing he had seat belt and roll bar in his FJ40. Accidents can happen even stopping for a lunch break.
I wouldn't own one without at least a bar. Crazy. Been debating a full cage on my 5.
It's nice that you care so much for these strangers...just like those strangers who "remind" me to wear my motorcycle helmet (which I always do). Did you remember to mail their Christmas cards...or are you just being condescending?
Strongly agree
Could not agree more. A 46 almost killed my brother. Roll cage and harness. Spring shackle broke and put him in a coma for 3 days. Passenger had a sprained thumb. What saved him were the nurses and emt's in Jeeps following him. Safety first.
Awesome video! I wanted to see rock crawling with a manual transmission. I got a bonus... no power steering! These old Willy's (and guys) rule.
This makes me long for the days when real cars could be fixed in the field with real tools. That's the true freedom that comes with these trusty old beasts.
Coolest off-road group I've ever seen
Hands down 🤩
instablaster.
And that, friends and neighbors, is why you have a full roll cage. Good vid.
I am in love with that Willys jeep, its versatality and rugged looks captivated me.
Great to see the old iron on the trail. Old iron the LOOKS like old iron. Back to the trilling days of yesteryear!
Love it bam bam, getting a different point of view is good for the soul every now and then lol, fun times
Grandpa's jeep makes everything look easy. That man must have an egg between his foot and throttle, 20/10 vision, and forearms of steel.
I have a 1947 CJ-2A I'm building and I would love to come out on a trail adventure like this! Thanks for sharing the video this looked amazing!
Grant Thienemann we are a group of friends from around the country and we call ourselves the “Qwaaazy 8’s”. We mostly hang out on www.thecj2apage.com/forums. Look in “Shows & Get Togethers” to see what we are up to.
Those jeeps were built for real men. And real trails. You guys are what it is all about. My hat is off to you. Thank you. Stay safe and happy trails. One day I hope to have an old jeep. #realmeninrelajeeps
You’re not a real man huh?
@@flight2k5 I got one a month ago and no. I'm not I put power steering in after the 2nd trip. But in my defense I didn't run skinnys I was running 33x12.50 and that shit was hard to steer, blew the manual box on a trail.
@@adamshartley these are won’t hard to steer 🤣😂.
Enjoyed part 1, now enjoyed part 2, same great drivers, same great vehicles, more great scenery, glad to see the rollover driver was okay, balls of steel!
It's great seeing the old iron still getting out on the trail.
JK_ southwest and the Willys too! 😉
No doubt, I am looking for a '41-'45 Willys myself.
Don't crawl a Willy's without some kind of roll bar or cage 👍

Real pleasure to watch … blessings
Thanks for letting us know, good work!!!
that was awesome, I enjoyed every minute.
Loved the video, thanks for posting.
Today's fiat Jeeps will NEVER be this cool.
I was in a flat fender forum several years back with Haynes Garage...I see that shirt and some other Charleston shirts in the crowd. We had a flat fender get together at patriots point one year. I had my 51 m38 there. Small world....
I always wanted to see Bam Bam's drivetrain.
Love these war machines, sweet original better than the newer rubicon I've gotta get one of these classic ones! Hope to built one of these someday so awesome.
I like blue jeep driver very smooth maneuvering
I have to say the RUBICON looks every bit as tough as it's said to be. Not for the weak of heart. Too tough for my likes. But I must say you look to have a great group of guys and spotters there and that makes all the difference. Wow !
Needs more cow bell😃
ROCK. ok we heard u the first 400 times.
Until it rolled,I thought his Willys was stock 4cyl.too.Saw that second pipe into the Y and...I know a Buick V-6 goes in easily,but it sounded flathead too.Glad he's ok.
The guy in blue jeep is awesome
Ballsy too, running that trail without a roll bar.
Enjoyed watching
Joyful experience to watch
This looks like So. Much. Fun.
tuff old guys and there tuff old jeeps , love it
'Shows what simple lockers and sturdy steel bumpers/skids can do, vs modern "modes", vulnerable/fragile plastic/sheetmetal, cameras, and huge tires on $50K+ rigs.
LOVING that blue jeep!!!
Absolutely - NICE colour AND proper tyres for the job !
I have a 1948 CJ2a......I could never do this with my brakes. What are your brakes? Stock tiny drums (I think mine are 8 inch?) or disc upgrades? I'm thinking of getting some discs on the front, but they ain't cheap. What would you recommend? The one that rolled, looked like it has a firewall mounted double brake master/vacuum booster?
Awesome stuff. Thanks for sharing!
I loved the cowbell

More cow bell!!!! LOL
I love Stan's approach, NFG👍.
As soon as I sell this Ford Falcon I have I'll be in the market for a Cheap Jeep to accompany my Wagoneer. I officially have Jeep FEVER 🤪

Jeep fever? Does it hurt when you pee? Thats a sure sign youve got The Willys.
This is great, hell of a driver the guy who rolled. I saw the first video he kicks ass. Glad he wasn't hurt. I have a 2015 JKU,
something I can take the wife and kids out with, I really do love the old Willy's though. So classic, I love the tall thin military type tires
Better than giant fat outside the body tires. Bare bones and all metal, built for what I saw here! Cheers!
Great jeeps! Please those of you with no rollcage or bar, please consider getting one!
Out of all the drivers on these videos, he was not the one I had pegged to to flip their jeep...
Good keep I need them to Cambodia sir.
What size tire is on the blue Jeep?
TSL Super Swappers. 34x9.50’s
MORE COWBELL! totally awesome run. Nice. Represent. Jeep
i'm glad everyone is ok!
Where's the videos of the jeeps with out rollbars put in on the lid or skull cap? I loved watching and would like to see a video just on trail repairs.
Maybe the roll cage makes them top heavy and flip?
The General Purpose (Jeep) 1/4 ton was designed to get through rough country in war time, but NOT extreme rock climbing!
Flat out amazing what those little jeeps can climb over. Great video.
Well they have lockers
Would be great if you mentioned the specs of these Jeeps. Are these all stock? I see one which is an automatic.
The real Jeep OG's
Awsome. The blue one is cool. I need that jeep for charity hehe.
So glad he wasn’t hurt
Everyone below is complaining about the jeeps with no role cages is dangerous, the real danger for the owners is once these Jeeps are back on the main roads dealing with inpatient car drivers trying to overtake them while they are doing 50mph going back home.
God Bless those rescue guys...:)
Felicitaciones a los pilotos y buenos vehiculos Jeep ... excelente video, saludos desde Venezuela...
Engine question: The jeep that rolled, did it have a Buick V-6 in it? Any of those jeeps with a Buick V-6 or anything other than a Go Devil? TIA.
Jordan Funk the Jeep that rolled has a 4.3 Chevy. The dark green Jeep with no top and the windshield up has a dauntless V6. The X98 prototype has an F-134. The rest have L134.
@@jpetrowich Thanks for that info...I was wondering the same thing when I saw the pipes on both sides of the engine.
@@jpetrowichDid you have to do anything other than pulling the plugs on the 4.3 after the roll?
Those Willy’s with the window frames down and single roll bar behind the seats scare me, and that blue rig with no roll bars at all oh my! 😳 Had the roll over been that blue Willy’s we’d most likely be looking at a snapped neck. Foolish
The guy's driving in the blue one is flawless, but accidents do happen and can happen to anyone
13:05 Jeep has dual exhaust. What engine do you have?
I have a question what is the lever you have mounted on your shifter looks like a bicycle or a motorcycle brake handle curious to know thank you
It is a bicycle brake. I use it as a hand throttle.
@@jpetrowich Great idea thanks for the info look forward to the next video
Love the old iron! Thanks for posting. I am sorry I had to sell my GPW several years back :( I am planning on finding another flatfender in the near future; so, what kind of modifications are you men using? Which rig is the least modified, and what mods does it have? Thanks.
We are a group who call ourselves the "Qwaaazy 8s" We categorize our jeeps into 3 classes, "Locker Stocker", "Super Stocker", and "Open Class".
Locker Stocker - Vehicle has to appear totally stock. Any modifications have to be invisible other than roll over protection which is encouraged. Typical mods would be lockers front and rear, lower transmission and transfer case gears, 12 volt electrical system. You can run any tire so long as it fits on a stock wheel that is no wider than 5" The white jeep, patina light blue jeep, jeep with tow bar, and bright blue jeep all fit into this class. They all have lock right lockers in the stock axles, T90-C gears in their transmissions, and either Teraflex or JP Rockeater low gears in their transfer cases. They are all running the original L134 flat head motor.
Super Stocker - Vehicle can have any modification but needs to appear stock from 20 feet. Two hard rules are that that you have to maintain an 80" wheelbase and wheels have to be stock and no wider than 5". Typical mods would be V6 engine, fuel injection, lower gears, .... The common denominator between the two classes is the 80" wheelbase and stock wheels no wider than 5". The other jeeps in the video not mentioned previously are "Super Stock"
Open Class - Anything goes but the jeep has to have flat fenders to resemble an early Willys or GPW.
If you watch our videos from 2017 you will see a red jeep with white wheels "Lumpy". This jeep is bone stock with open differentials.

@@jpetrowich, thank you so much for the information my friend! I will check out your earlier videos as well to see the other great adventures you guys have gone on. One other question I might have, is on the tires. Is there a preferred brand or ply, or do any tires that looks stock work about the same?
@@ThatsSir2TheLikesOfU Hah! This is the old question that gets lots of people arguing. Rather than answer it, I'd rather let my videos do the talking. my jeep "BAM BAM" is running 750-16 NDTs. I did cut some grooves in them but in my experience that only helps with driving on pavement. (rain/snow). Watch the videos and be the judge for yourself.
Thanks@@jpetrowich, is there an outstanding brand or a couple of good brands you recommend?
@@ThatsSir2TheLikesOfU Mine are 7.50-16 NDTs made by STA. They have the Firestone logo.
The light blue patina jeep has the same tire except his are 7.00-16
The bright blue jeep with white wheels has TSL super swampers 9/34-16 or SAM-21
Some people run the new BF Goodrich KM3 7.50-16
43 is doing and looking good Jpet!
Why the bell, does he get lost a lot?
Does anyone know how much pressure they're running on these trails?
Most run 8-10 psi. Lately I have been running 5 psi
love the epic bam bam
Any update re the lack of drive intermittently on that front wheel ?
Needs more COW BELL!
Amazing content
The engines without vacuum leaks look easier to drive!
Especially with no power steering
Why you're supposed to have everything tied down
So that what an old cj3 looks like underneath never crawled under to look as mines to reliable and nothings broke under it yet. Fuel,oil,spark,and a little squirting of ether all they ever need.
How not love Cj3?
The sounds of the engines and the scraping. Not so much the guy talking. There you go. Please go.
the tires are so narrow and yet it works
In most cases, narrow tires are actually better than wide tires. Look at the old clips of Model T's going places a Rubicon couldn't dream of, and they had tires barely wider than motorcycle tires.
Are you all using the original engine type?
Don't anyone have steering assistance
How did the carburetors do with the altitude? They all seem to have run very well, did they or are they easy to adjust for altitude?
Grampa's Jeep has the stock Carter WO carb. I live at 4500 ft and have been over 13,000 ft with no issues.
Rubicon never gets above about 6400 ft carbs work fine.
and queue the comments about off roading without a roll cage... well think about this: 40,000 fatalities on america's roads in 2017! I agree it's better to have a cage, but you're way more likely to die just driving around. and nobody thinks twice about that.
Kasian wilysnya bro . Banyak jalan kok lewat batuan.
Surprise....little lean, then more, then too much...glad the turtle action was slow and still (not sliding).
Ok guys those Jeeps are great, i have 2 cherokees, had several cjs and wanglers, but now im restoring a 57 willys cj 6. yes a 6, it's rust free, but guys how do you wheel like that with no power steering, my hat is off to you. Also i can see the oil bath filter is out with you guys... Btw what lockers do you guys use?
For stock 10 spline d25 front and d41 axles, just about the only thing out there is the Lock Right. If you change axles to more modern yhe are more choices. I have Lock Rights in Grampa's jeep and i love them. Don't have to think about them, they just work.
Just curious, what size tires do y'all run on average for this trail. I've got a 72 FJ40 on BFG KO 31s, a rear locker, a winch, rock rails, a roll bar, and the rest is pretty much stock and running strong. My grandfather used to claim the buddy he bought it from would use it on the Rubicon but that was way back when. I wonder how it would fair nowadays. Hope y'all had a good time and came out without too much damage. :)
@@BD-or2xu 7inch wide tires on a manual box help allot....from Wyoming USA 🔫🤠
Column shift Willys?? Never heard of it before, is it stock???
Jim Miller yes, the 1st 15000 or so CJ2As were column shift.
Really? Wow, I'll go to bed tonight a little less stupid! Lol! 7minutes for a response, awesome, thank you.
Curious as to what Bam Bam has for tires on the front wheels. Also what the blue 2a is running for tires. My military NDT’s are about shot
Johnny Rossman BAM BAM has 750-16 military NDTs. They look different because I cut them with a hot knife. The blue 2A, “Gus”, has 34 x 9 x 16 swampers. SAM21
Well, they look great! I read the article on your jeep in.. I believe it was JP. Similar to my build but yours is much cooler. Sorry you rolled it! Thanks for the sick vid and thanks for the quick reply. 🤙🏼
Cool roll bar
Please put a roll bar on your Jeep you are important to this world
This goes to show that Jeeps are generally overbuilt these days.
No roll bar or flimsy roll bars...I saw a guy roll over and the seat crushed him in the middle...he was bleeding out of the mouth and coughing up blood. Safety goes a long way.
Did you help or just sit there and point a finger and laugh....
What model is the jeep at 4:00?
I've got an opportunity to own that exact jeep, it's got the hood of what looks like an m38a1 with the groove in the center, and the cut out for the snorkel. But the grill looks exactly like the one at 4:00, it also has flat fenders like the one at 4:00
Help, anyone?
Not likely. That is a reproduction of the experimental Jeep X98 which is a one of a kind CJ3B prototype. Google “Jeep X98”.
@@jpetrowich that would be really bizzare if I end up with a prototype. But everything is identical, minus the access panel on the cowel in front of the windshield passenger side. Other than that it's identical to the jeep at 4:00
It would be extraordinary. Good luck with your acquisition and keep us posted. cj3b.info/CJ4Prototypes.html
@@BravoWellnessAndRecovery Interesting, please post some photos of your Jeep!!!
@@cj3a sure email me! Bvary94@gmail.com
I'm not sure how to post pics here
12:55
That cow bell has to go ....... had to watch with sound off e every time that thing came through :) killer little trucks eh ? The tires on the blue one aren't stock tires are they ?
They are willys jeeps from 40's and 50's. And no those arent stock tires on most of them.
I’ll assume everybody is using lockers and lift.
The cow bell, an important piece of equipment.
Poor Bam Bam, after all those times
Maybe I’ll add a roll bar to my Jeep.
Whats the max speed on those old ww2 jeeps?
Get out and walk LOW
Get out and run HIGH
한국에도 Willy jeep있었음 좋겠다
Nice shot of Groot 18:14
Who’s idea was it to put a freakin cow bell on the bumper?
Old patient goes to the victory
Looks like most damage came from the shit on the floor
