I’ve been an engine builder for almost 30 years and I confess that I love the smell of tearing an old engine apart. The best odor resides in the main bearing bolts holes with the cylinder head bolt holes coming in a close second. I believe that I was born to rebuild engines.
I have a similar experience with the smell of gear oil. I love the smell of tearing a rear end/t-case/ or differential apart. Theres just something about it that I like. Engines are the same tho
At 1.38 your brother was there waiting. looking ready to go! Justin get Dex an apron!! A machinists apron/gown whatever its called That would complete the video. Just for fun!! Love the fact you guys work together. It's nice to see that. oh ! can I get that bearing right there?
You know what I like about you Dex?! You just say it and call it how it is. Keep up the awesome work and the awesome videos. I have a WJ and wish I was closer to you! Thanks for all you do man!
Would be interesting to see a motor built from core motors. Take all used salvageable parts, build one good motor out of it and see how oil pressure and performance and reliability compares to one with matching wear to cam/lifters and stuff. Seems cool to me but that’s cuz I wouldn’t be doing the work 🤣 love the vids dex
Even with a stock motor I like to put a cam and it at least a 258 duration. They'll put a little bit above stock. Little more horse power better throughout.
Another Great Video Dex , Just the Money Alone is worth the Time Even The Scrap Pice of sorted Metal Let alone salvageable Parts Rods,Cranks,Heads,Blocks,Rocker arms, Ive said it Before and ill say it again a Man doing what ive always wanted to do !!! I love yer channel and again cant wait for the next Vid , Up North where We have No Good Bodys and No its NOT TO LONG OF A VID !!!
What makes a million views is a desired motor something that's been sitting completely rebuilt with all almost exact same parts and then run with amazing power, and I'm sure there's lies in between, but whatever. I like your videos. I have 7 trucks but nowhere near what you have? LOLI wish you'd found a new Cherokee. With virtually no rust, LOL still trying to fix commanchi.
Also have a 2.5 that lakes breaking rear ends drive shafts. With 488 locked 36 inch tires. And high strength, Axel shifts. Snapping shits not fun for pass 4 years. Am I called at the torchmonster? Picks a front and off the ground, no joke.
The oil Pan bracket I've made that. I've an actual piece of 1/8 steel cut out And wilded washers to the ends. Because I couldn't get it for anywhere from the dealer.
The pump cherrie picker, could you take a reciprocating saw and knock the teeth off an old blade and wrap it around the pump handle toward the bottom and pump it that way
Great stuff bro...I like that yall brothers doing some cool shit together and make money too....I jelly af....anyways keep up the awesome content...I definitely enjoy
You and Justin should go in together and build a climbing crawling zj and get a 4.7 magnum V8 and a 5spd manual shift transmission and shove in it lift it and sit it on like 33's and maybe a body lift and see if you can do any better than your normal beater crawling jeep Cherokee's both you or Justin i just think it would be a interesting idea and entertaining to watch to see how it performed climbing up different angles with and without traction handicaps
I put a 2000 wj 4.0 in my 2000 xj and made everything work and had it running but it wouldn’t go into gear. Idk what to done other then pull it out and get a xj motor
Too much weight in Fronen with stock axles lead to bent axles. Also, too much weight in front end will lead you. Top heavy front overbackwards. If you're a trail rider, if you're mudbogger V8 is the way to go. But me I like to be a little bit pro Stock You can still gain a lot of horse power and torque. Avenue line I've met couple guys with 1000 horse in line 6. And for others with BMW slanded 6. With plenty, it's interesting.
take care yourself man , get some colodial silver ... good natural antibiotic etc.. back in the old days they used to throw a silver dollar in the milk jug to make it last month longer . silver good for yas
Then one piston towards the center is probably because the cracked head and head hydro lock. What's through the connecting rod right? Outside? Cuzzle's fucked up heads if you get the wrong number on the head, maybe.
Hay Dex ,was wondering how to make a connect, I have a 98 XJ and need a few parts, I live in Bristol. Do you sell part, work on trucks. If you could get back I'd appreciate it
Hey dex been a fan for along time and love your content. I need some help with my tj. I just put a lift on it and I dropped my 4wd linkage with it . When I go to put it into 4wd it grinds until you put it in neutral. But when the jeep is off it seems to go into the gears. Can someone with more smarts help me out please. Ik your busy just asking
My 2000 dodge ram truck even though I repaired the signal wire back together after the freaking ground squirrel attacked my wiring harness the truck is still running the factory Chrysler crankshaft position sensor lol
Half a teaspoon of organic trumic in an inch of water in a class with a bit of black pepper 🌶️ mixed in and stir eat some food 🥘 first then drink it for your cold 🥶 .👍🏻
Hes doing a good job on videos, but hes also dealing with a lot of people. Negligence off high rev bullshit or fucking Trucks up. And he gets the shit and stick and trying to make a buck if he can with what he has buying selling. So I can't knock them for that. Trying to make a live in somehow? And I appreciate that.

@@codyswilley yep. I know some mechanics hate the smell of gear lube but not me.
“I like watching people struggle”
😂 brother love
Unless it smells like burnt oil lol
I swear new 8 speed transmission fluid smells like some nice cologne
"is it scrap?" Followed by gratoutis camshaft violence 🤣
At 1.38 your brother was there waiting. looking ready to go! Justin get Dex an apron!! A machinists apron/gown whatever its called That would complete the video. Just for fun!! Love the fact you guys work together. It's nice to see that. oh ! can I get that bearing right there?
You guys have WAY TOO MUCH FUN> THANKS FOR SHARING.

You know what I like about you Dex?! You just say it and call it how it is. Keep up the awesome work and the awesome videos. I have a WJ and wish I was closer to you! Thanks for all you do man!
Harbor freight hydraulic air assist cylinder. We're straight for engine hoist as well.

Thank you for this video. If you are talking about idocars and his tear downs of almost every engine is such a gods send.
Love these guys! My favorite channel! Let’s get these guys to a million subs guys!
Even with a stock motor I like to put a cam and it at least a 258 duration. They'll put a little bit above stock. Little more horse power better throughout.
Kickass vid Dex and Justin! keep it up, love the varied content!

Watching this video reminds me of a time when 4.0 Jeeps were a dime a dozen. Times are changing 😢
You guys should do this least once a week and call it somthin to do with mr Rogers neighborhood tear down day lol

You put a lot of knowledge in these videos. Like how you explain what it is and what happened maybe to it. Awesome job and great video
My God, you 2 guys live live such an awesome life.
Also have a 2.5 that lakes breaking rear ends drive shafts. With 488 locked 36 inch tires.

Dex, if I ever need a 4.0 I’m gonna get one off you! Seriously!!
interesting video , i can,t think of anyone else that would even have that many motors 😂
I would love to see a 5.2 teardown and learn more about your thoughts on the 5.2 vs the 4.0. Thanks for the fun videos!
I love the way you call it out, you and your brother is very knowledgeable on these jeeps 4.0 now I know we’re to get 4.0 parts keep the videos coming
Impact grade sockets make a difference too, even on my 3/8 its noticeable. Love the content, Keep it coming!
The oil Pan bracket I've made that. I've an actual piece of 1/8 steel cut out And wilded washers to the ends.
Because I couldn't get it for anywhere from the dealer.
The pump cherrie picker, could you take a reciprocating saw and knock the teeth off an old blade and wrap it around the pump handle toward the bottom and pump it that way
I've never done any sort of mechanical work but I would love to fully take apart an engine especially one of these inlines as I drive a 01 xj
“Ah million views and one motor?” that won’t cut it with these good Ol boys gotta do 8 in one Johnny !
Awesome video-learned a lot!
Man, that's a lot of Carnage.
Tearing down that many motors will definitely show you the weak points 👍👍

Dex you should build a off road wrecker Cherokee that would be awesome content from you
That poor 5.3LS laying there. Did you ever get it installed in the Camanche? I'm definitely needing one of those Camanche trucks for a project.
2:15 omg exactly lmao lmaooooo “ you have the bank two cam positioner timing sprocket???!?” Ya I do but why would I be going in there for that
Can you show a video of how you made your Cherry picker drill powered
Budget stroker 👍🏻

Don't worry about extra long videos i watch what I can then when bored I go check the library and finish them or add to watch later list
take care yourself man , get some colodial silver ... good natural antibiotic etc.. back in the old days they used to throw a silver dollar in the milk jug to make it last month longer . silver good for yas
do a rear man seal with easy tools video!
Will the factory aluminum valve cover fit 1999 grand Cherokee also do you have any
Then one piston towards the center is probably because the cracked head and head hydro lock. What's through the connecting rod right? Outside? Cuzzle's fucked up heads if you get the wrong number on the head, maybe.
Hay Dex ,was wondering how to make a connect, I have a 98 XJ and need a few parts, I live in Bristol. Do you sell part, work on trucks. If you could get back I'd appreciate it
Please - Please - Please do a budget stroker video 🙏
It’s on the list asap!!
Hey dex been a fan for along time and love your content. I need some help with my tj. I just put a lift on it and I dropped my 4wd linkage with it . When I go to put it into 4wd it grinds until you put it in neutral. But when the jeep is off it seems to go into the gears. Can someone with more smarts help me out please. Ik your busy just asking
how much would u want for that header want one to throw on the lj when i build a stroker
I hope you get ahold of my buddys xj with a wj motor in it one day just so you can tear it apart saying wtf non stop
Im wanting to buy a 32rh transmission and ecu even suit rebuild.
My 4.0 locked up on the highway last night ;( i assume its a spun bearing
What pistons and lifters do you recommend
My 2000 dodge ram truck even though I repaired the signal wire back together after the freaking ground squirrel attacked my wiring harness the truck is still running the factory Chrysler crankshaft position sensor lol
What did 4.2 come in
@3:12 HEAD PHONE WARNING!!!!!!!!
Half a teaspoon of organic trumic in an inch of water in a class with a bit of black pepper 🌶️ mixed in and stir eat some food 🥘 first then drink it for your cold 🥶 .👍🏻
I need a 4.2 badly cali sucks havent found shit out here
I need a 99 4.0 block mines about to quit
Wj
Not everyone lies. But some folks dont do nothing but lie.
I spy an Ls motor in the background
NICE
42 cracked pistons is my guess
Yall need someone to do teardowns? 👀👀👀
7:33 thats sludge from dummies not changing or changing oil every 10,000 miles lol
I had a lift die in my 4.0 which parts store lifter is the best? Should I leave the old stock ones in all the others?
Now why would someone bring you a good motor for a core
That’s not what he said. He said lying
Hes doing a good job on videos, but hes also dealing with a lot of people. Negligence off high rev bullshit or fucking Trucks up. And he gets the shit and stick and trying to make a buck if he can with what he has buying selling.
So I can't knock them for that. Trying to make a live in somehow? And I appreciate that.
Dear god let’s make this guy rich before he loses all his hair
Meseco? What's up with spelling? That in itself is a blasting alarm. Meseco or Mexico I would never purchase a motor from them.
Bad maintenance I’d say by most people or reving the 💩out of them 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
i do cars
