  • This episode of The Dirthead Shed we drag an early Ford Bronco back to the shop . It’s time for this forgotten project car to get the attention it deserves and be reliable enough for an epic rock crawling trip in the Sierra Mountains of California. Follow along as Dirthead Dave and a couple of friends make it happen.

    Im so glad you guys are not on motor trend anymore. Your channels will blow up after the non compete crap ends.

    That small little gusset you put on the tire carrier, just gives me so much more confidence in your work and that you're the man! How many spares have we seen laying on the trail, sheared straight from the square tube.. right after someone's slapped it and said, she ain't going nowhere...

    This is exactly where you need to be, Dave. You are adding in details that has been missing from DED content, with the format length and other little minutiae that matters in completing a rig build.
    Although you don't have the Motor Trend budget, I think this channel is going to blow up to where you can probably be a full-time RUclipsr and leave OPP. Consequently, don't be afraid of delivering sponsored content if it pays the bills.
    Best of luck on the new hustle.
    You are your own boss now.

    I use a different style of spare tire mount on trailers I work on, but it would translate well to the offroad world. I mount tires on trailers with a trailer axle spindle. I then put a spare trailer hub on it, and bolt the tire to the hub, so the tire snugs up to the frame. It not only keeps the spare with you, but gives you an extra hub, lug nuts and a bearings and a cap. It's nice to mount the spare, and end up with it keeping a few consumable parts as well! Love your work! Video quality is a big leap forward. Best of luck!
