Perfect Idea; Take the Chang Li and the Change Lii and 1 person. Then do a Premium Gear (Top Gear) challenge type episode. Have the 2 cars compete against a person in like a 100 meter dash or race to the top of a hill. Call the Person competing "Chang Lee". I would love this.
I love how these guys seem so happy and love this vehicle so much even though is insanely unpractical once u factor in shipping costs, and you need to change out seemingly half the car to even make it 5 miles without it breaking 😂
Guys, do us a big favour, and get a $20 carbon monoxide detector for the Chang Lee. The CO should all vent via the exhaust, but you have to factor in that Will installed the heater, plus the possibility of it snowing overnight and blocking the exhaust just might lead to exhaust creeping into the cabin. We don't want to lose you, and I'll send you the $20 if it makes a difference.
It's a diesel heater, not gasoline. Diesel and kerosene produce 20 times less CO than gas. I would be more worried about the gasoline generator they keep running to top up their battery.
Yup. It's always a good idea to run it in atmo for at least 3... 4 hours before actually installing it to let it vent out. Even the quality ones do the same, unless the booklet specifically says that they were pre-heated before being shipped, which some of the top brands in this business do. Decent units for what they do. As long as you feed them clean fuel and clean the guts once a year, they last a ton. I've fitted three on my brother's older farm equipment that never came with factory heating.
@@elliotgauthier6982 yeah i see that, i'm gutted, TBH i was only watching this channel for him and his antics especially the 100 mile challenge and then the new machine he got, is it his or will it stay on this channel - lots of unanswered questions, i hope he is ok, i mean its his life and if he doesn't wish to continue on YT i respect that, but he has a few fans i think, i makes me laugh, as a Brit, i find his mannerisms, his laugh and the voice sounds almost cartoony, and i mean that as a compliment, funny as
@@mostlymotorized bro, do you just go around leaving hate everywhere you go? Let people like what they like, if you're not a fan if this stuff, skip watching it and wait for another video or go watch something else, you don't have to be such a tw@t about it.
"If we bent the axle what are we gonna do... or should we just assume we didn't..." "Just assume we didn't.." "yeah, that's smart.... " as Ethan walks away laughing. This whole episode had me laughing my ass off.
YES! More Chang Li content! I don't know why I'm so obsessed with these things and Kei Trucks, but I'm obviously not the only one. Places you can't even walk boys!
@@mostlymotorized do you know where one would go to get paid to leave comments on social media platforms? I've seen people claiming comments be paid shills for years but I've never seen any of these jobs advertised anywhere. It doesn't sound like a company would get a great return on investment if I'm honest. Not doubting it happens, I'm sure "social media managers" actually do stuff like that to prop up brands and manufacture hype & buzz.
FYI if you ever have to do another Lexan windshield,,, paint it from the inside surface. It will turn out shiny and alot less likely to chip the paint off from road/trail degree 😉 I know you're probably not extremely worried about that, but that's how we always did our race car windows. 😁 Anyways another great video!
I love how these guys seem so happy and love this vehicle so much even though is insanely unpractical once u factor in shipping costs, and you need to change out seemingly half the car to even make it 5 miles without it breaking 😂
i think with that heater on board, i hot air balloon might be more apt, certainly assist in doing more miles, air miles and you definitely cannot walk there
As a local, I’m proud that we have businesses in the area like yours that truly make a difference in this world 😂 All joke’s aside, thank you for the entertainment and motivation to keep grinding ✊
@@tiagoandreandradepedro7383 not sure where it started but there was a video where they were betting on lap times and he kept losing. then every time he got caught with his phone in his back pocket he had to do them.
Edwin and Will..you guys gotta make this more than a 100 mile challenge..make it a competition. Does Ethan think any of his creations would make it 100 miles off-road ?
After a clip of that ..box bouncing off normal tire marks like a ping-pong ball, "This has even better suspension than the old one!" To get a grip: Pull out the stock tires from the stock wheels. Drill 5mm holes in center of every nub you have on the thread, or optionally, 40 holes in four rows 120 in total per tire, overlapping holes so that none of them is in line will give the best result. Insert 35-45mm M6 bolt with 20mm flat washers on both sides and a regular nut. Tight the nut and weld a tap for every nut. This is why no nylocks, the weld is the only way. Can't weld it fully around, this will both burn the tire and ruin the bolt. Just a small tap, with a rapid cool down via compressed air. Add a strip of leather/rubber inside the tire to line those bolt heads, glue it in place with flex seal. You can use an inner tube, but the flex seal and lining should hold too. for maximum grip, screw the tire to the wheel through the bead lip with 15mm long 5-6 mm core thickness screws. Air the tire down, and you can run the Chang-Li up a snowy mountain side and through mud and roots. Bolt tires hold on rocks too for a while until the bolts wear out.
Hearing you guys talk about bending the Chang Lee axel reminded me of when I was an apprentice at Ford Product Development (UK). I was working with a fitter doing chassis distortion test on a 40,000lb dump truck. We jacked up one corner till the opposite wheel was at the point of lifting off the ground, and measured points along the chassis rails to see how much it twisted. At one point the jack slipped off the front beam-axil onto the track-rod, and bent the begezus out of it. I thought we would be in trouble but the fitter removed the track rod and straightened it with the press. We put it back on the truck and said nothing about it. Your half shaft is going to be made of harder steel than a track-rod, and is much more likely to break if you put it under a press, but it might be worth a try.
there needs to be a change li power wheels, speaking of power wheels, i'm putting a go kart engine in a power wheels jeep, i'm posting it on my youtube channel that i'm trying to grow. you guys inspired me to make it
I had noticed that Chang Li in some of the other videos I've watched. I was curious about it seeing it in the background. and now I know for sure it looks like a Lincoln Navigator from the front. it's definitely faster than the other Chang Li. and the damage it received from the forklift. should be pretty easy to repair being it's really thin metal. I'm still wanting to see more of the old chang Li now that it's four wheel drive.
I think it’s a nice change to see will like getting after a project and making sure it’s done then to rush into it and it breaks before it’s complete he’s evolving
Don’t be discouraged boys, don’t let Dad bring you down😂👏 I’ve been watching these gents antics and builds for years and I absolutely love this channel! Lots more please👏
i agree - its an off road rule, don't do it alone, you can then recover each other but i did just add else where, with the heater on board, i think a hot air balloon built into the roof - air miles and you can't walk there so check check

I said before and will say again, Will and Edwin need to have shirts that say "SKETCH MOTURS".

How did you guys bend that rear hub? You didn't tell us how that happened. You must have hit something really hard.
The "We broke it." followed by "Yeah, I know. That's pretty apparent." in the most disappointed dad way possible had me rolling.
That was hilarious.
Ethan loves shitting on the chang lee
I love how these guys seem so happy and love this vehicle so much even though is insanely unpractical once u factor in shipping costs, and you need to change out seemingly half the car to even make it 5 miles without it breaking 😂
its obvious that half of the crew doesnt like these 100 mile challenges with changli's.
MAKE SEVENTEEN MORE MINI BOATS INSTEAD
I was literally about to comment about that very same part - Hilarious from Ethan

When I started driving semi's in 1990, we had diesel bunk heaters by Espar eberspacher.
I dont see a problem here...
@@Geekn4sty❤
When you going to do the second challenge with the beefed up Chang Lee? Maybe you should run them together... with a few Power Wheel builds.
Yes this
YESS
yessssss
Yes
Katy and Will in one, Steven and Edwin in the other and it’s a 100 mile race.
I'm a truck driver, we use those heaters in our sleepers. And yes, they do smoke outside like that . Perfectly normal.
Yup. It's always a good idea to run it in atmo for at least 3... 4 hours before actually installing it to let it vent out.

So you worship the devil
We need the 100 mile challenge. Put batteries in old changli and do it!
That would be to "easy"😁
yeah no that's weird I don't know why they just don't do both cars

At this rate Will is going to be the nation's most knowledgeable Chang Li specialist by the end of the year

I like how you can see the angle iron under the Chang Li isn't straight when they show it flipped over. 0:44
lol, I love Ethan's absolute unbelief in this entire endeavor.
Based.
disbelief is the word unbelief is based on religion. unless you mean we pray to premium..
With the diesel heater exhaust, you should call this the Cheech and Chang-Li
I love both sides of this channel. Ethan and his creativity and skillful builds mixed with dad vibes. And Will and Edwins pure optimistic enthusiasm
"Only looks matter in the Chang Li lifestyle ". The greatest comment ever..
I absolutely love the dynamic between you all. Such a joy to watch!

@12:45 Good one, Katie.
OMG these two wholesome dweebs kill me. So excited: “we’re regenning!” 😂❤
You guys should do the 100 mile challenge with both Chang Li’s, maybe have tools and parts in the original
ChangLi outdoing the Cybertruck offroad is my roman empire
FYI if you ever have to do another Lexan windshield,,, paint it from the inside surface. It will turn out shiny and alot less likely to chip the paint off from road/trail degree 😉 I know you're probably not extremely worried about that, but that's how we always did our race car windows. 😁 Anyways another great video!

Man...i thought I'd seen it all until the big brother Chang Li came around 😂🤦♂️
I love how these guys seem so happy and love this vehicle so much even though is insanely unpractical once u factor in shipping costs, and you need to change out seemingly half the car to even make it 5 miles without it breaking 😂
I see an immediate need for a 3rd ChangLi....turned into an off road recovery ChangLi😂
The constant roasting is the best part of these videos
Throw a winch on the front, better for trail recovery`s.
i think with that heater on board, i hot air balloon might be more apt, certainly assist in doing more miles, air miles
and you definitely cannot walk there
Second day of summer watching a snow video really threw me of 😂 Gotta love the magic of car RUclips with the Bois ❤
I'm loving the Chang Li builds! They are for sure adult power wheels
That ad spot was so well done🔥 10/10 strategy
25:41 Schrodinger's axel states that until you check if the axel is bent it is neither bent nor straight
Get a comalong (manual winch) to pull you out when you get high centered.
i think a simple addition to the centre hubs, convert them into winches, one on each corner
Seeing yet another Chang Li to hit the shop just brightened my day. What a beauty!
100 Miles or bust!
Dents? That was the 1st strutuctural test in the rollover category! Sheeeee!

Critical thinking isn't hatred.

Just twisting them together and then wrapping them in electrical tape? 😂

What constructive thoughts
That’s awesome, proud of you for finally coming out kiddo.

really enjoyed this one, the banter is as strong as the shonkiness on the car! 20-30 min vids for the win!
That differential is the 9" of the Chang Lee World
I really like the mix of fast paced swindle brothers vids and then slow Ethan fab that gets nerdy and artistic. Keep it up!
I think you should take both the Changi Li's, and Ethan takes the Colonel!
Might want to get an A/C machine to properly recover the refrigerant before the epa fines you for releasing to the atmosphere.
7:12 Wow that’s so awesome, a diesel heater😮
An electric vehicle with a fossil fuel heater?? That's evolution baby! 🤣🤣🤣
The new Chang Li spare tire cover almost looked crazy at first glance 😂
I don't care what Ethan says, I love this series. Keep it going!
Take them both! The OG Jank can be the support vehicle. Gonna need that guy after 5 minutes tho. 🛠️
25:06 what did will say?
Wow... I am super impressed with the durability of this chang lee, I love that it billows smoke like spike lee
Can you guys do 100 miles on normal road to see how difficult it is 😂 would love to watch it haha
I've been waiting for this 100 mile challenge for ages. I can't wait!
Do the 100 miles in tandem, send both Chang Lis out together :D
i agree - its an off road rule, don't do it alone, you can then recover each other
but i did just add else where, with the heater on board, i think a hot air balloon built into the roof - air miles and you can't walk there so check check
I can't wait for you guys to do it 100 mile challenge
More videos with Katie please!!❤❤
Their podcast Sent and Bent has a whole episode with her. Hilarious!!! Her and Will are a Preeeemium couple.
you might consider connecting the positive leads first, and the negative last. Usually doesn't spark at all and if it does, it's much less harsh.
12:45 Katie is so valid for that comment
Maybe change it to a 10 mile challenge. 😂😂😂
This has been my favorite series by far. Let's see some miles
