Can't believe how excited I have been to see someone else have their Jeep ready for the trail! LOL This is such a cool build, glad you stuck with the build and made it happen.
I love rich he’s literally the exhaust guy he’s been on every single show I’ve ever watched dealing with cars so all the car guys know rich so he’s literally the EXHAUST GODFATHER!!!
Brad, All of your videos are interesting, educational, and entertaining…but this one is next level. The information and insight from Rich and the footage provided by Magnaflow made this episode amazing. I’ll definitely be rewatching this one. Thanks for your content, Jim
I've been waiting for this video! Coleman will still service old lanterns, probably stoves too. Their price is reasonable and the fact that they still support their old products is amazing.
In Royal Rangers we were taught the value of a first aid kit, I always carry one in my vehicle for when there is trouble and I may need to help someone. The first time I had to really use it, I was the one that needed it. My jeep was in a serious accident, my 20 year old airbags didn't deploy, and my seatbelt didn't work. I relaxed before the impact - I knew to do that. Last thing I remember thinking - just relax, there is nothing else left to do, don't tense up that makes it worse (broken elbows, shoulders, etc) just let the seatbelt catch you. Next thing I know I rag dolled off the steering wheel, and cut my forehead open. I turned the car off, checked myself over, I knew I was in shock because I was very aware, and felt no pain. I got out of the car grabbing first aid kit and got to safety. I opened my kit and had no idea what I was looking at. I didn't know a bandaid from a pair of scissors. Fortunately some person stopped and helped me find some gauze. I never thought I needed it for myself. A few moments later the police arrived. The police officer was amazed that I had a First Aid kit, she exclaimed: "No one ever has a First-Aid kit!" - moral of the story - don't neglect your seatbelts, don't trust 20 year old xj airbags, and always carry a First-Aid kit!
We had a 73 Jeep Waggoner with Quadra-Trac and a low range box with a warn 8000 winch out front. This brought a lot of memories!we actually installed a divider behind the back sear. Kind of what we have now for pets. Fast stops, etc and the gear in back becomes dangerous for the back of your head.
That was a awesome video thank you so much Brad.. I'm keeping my Cherokee XJ I have rebuilt front and rear axle and rebuilt transfercase The old vehicles are worth hanging onto. ❤❤❤ Cherokee Nation
That is the sickest Jeep from old that I've seen in a long time. I did however fix up a 1975 CJ5 that was the same color. I Love It. And you did exceptional work for not doing it for a living. I've been restoring for 35 years now, but you've done well... excellent video work too.
I regret that I have only one thumbs-up to give. Love me some FSJs and vintage Jeeps. They're annoying to deal with at times but when they're right, they're so much fun. I like the vintage gear too. I've never seen the folding kitchen before. The exhaust sounds good without being loud. One nice thing about AMC being so small is that they used everyone else's parts. That's a GM alternator and is cheap and easy to upgrade. Old cars were barely adequate to run the lights and the heater at the same time.
That Magnaflow tech was the most generous tech I've ever heard as he discussed the previous exhaust builder's handy-work. He really gave the guy some props for what looked to be a real jack-wagon of a system.
Congrats on Prickly 🍐 I know how frustrating/exhausting it can be to have gremlins in your pride and joy, and your patience is rewarded with an amazing rig. Side note: Your positivity and passion are intoxicating in the best way. Thank you for making amazing content.
Looks really good. I like the old gear addition. I remember those added gas tanks. They were so you didn't have to carry gas cans. 35 years ago, many small towns didn't sell gas after 5 PM and none on Sunday.
That vehicle really suits you. Love that you got vintage gear for it. The camp kitchen you were gifted by your followers is incredible. The whole setup is very cool! May you enjoy awesome adventures in the Prickly Pear for many years to come. ❤
Looking good! As a fire fighter and EMT, glad to see you running an extinguisher and 1st aid kit. You have to make a couple changes to the Jeep though. A black license plate and a three spoke with metal flake green rim steering wheel! 😄
I cheered at the Coleman camp kitchen! Waaay back in 2013 I was a volunteer at Overland Expo, and I was using my parents' old coleman camp kitchen (same model). My friends who I shared a campsite with coined the nickname "The Plastic Chef" because of it. I also generally eat pretty well at camp and I always had coffee on in the morning that I would share.
@@TrailRecon Indeed! Most of it's outings are with me now, as my parents moved to motorhome life. Their motorhome is actually our classic (constant project) rig, a 1978 Travco 320, with the Dodge 440 that really likes to eat ignition modules and coils.
I’m a Toyota guy actually own a 2021 Tacoma off road 4x4 not a fan of the new jeeps as I have owned a few , but those older Jeeps have a special place in my heart just love them ! Good work …..
maybe down the road you can have the seats you bought re-upholstered to match the prickly pear. also for the head and floor liner there is a spray on glue for those to ensure they hold in place
you can get plywood (rino line or carpet) for the back and have hold down brackets where you need them and then you can remove if you dont like it with out drilling holes in truck
When you decide to learn welding I recommend the Miller Millermatic 211 MIG Welder as your machine. The MIG process is easier to learn and more productive than SMAW or TIG.
My Grand Wagoneer is in desperate need for a new exhaust system. You have inspired me to get that done now. Hopefully, I can find a great shop like you have found.
@TrailRecon I have always enjoyed your videos! Your early videos are what motivated me to get into overlanding, and building my 1995 Cherokee XJ. I've been at it for over 2 years now and love every bit of it!
I have a vintage Coleman steel belted ice chest that matches the color of Prickly Pear perfectly. I even have the matching water jug. The ice chest actually works better than a modern ice chest!
Great to see a classic back on the road and being enjoyed! My parents still have one of those old green Coleman coolers! Definitely gonna give the Magnaflow a look into for my JK, I have a Borla on there now that I’m so-so about.
It's always good to see old iron getting saved from the crusher. Sweet old rig. A thought, m'be a sheet of plywood cut to fit belong the carpet and carriage bolts up through to mount your tie-downs? You might use some dots of adhesive to keep the plywood in place.
Thank you for this video. Have been waiting patiently for Prickly Pair to get some serious TLC. Especially enjoyed MF discussing what a Catalytic Converter does. Very Interesting. ❤❤❤
Man i remember watching the video of you purchasing this rig and now qfter what seems to be hundreds of years it's finally ready for its maiden voyage. 🤙🏼
Love the vintage gear to match the jeep. I use my grandfather's old vintage tackle box when I go fishing - he passed before I was born, and I turn 37 tomorrow, so it's 40 years old or older. Took it to Florida this year and did a little fishing with it. I hope he'd be happy to know I'm still getting use out of it all these years later.
@@TrailRecon couple of rods and tackle, too! Love taking a trail down to the water and getting away from it all. Brings a smile to my face to be using 40+ year old equipment in a modern JL.
Hey Brad, The Cherokee is coming along nicely. The exhaust sounds good and looks really clean. On the subject of your search for vintage period correct Coleman camping gear, I have a friend who goes to every estate sale he can find and has come up with stoves, single and double mantel lanterns, coolers, water jugs, and the old Coleman catalyst heaters. Every bit of it has been brand new, purchased and never used and all still in the original boxes and from the 40’s,50’s,60’s, and 70’s. He has come up with this gear really inexpensively. Like he found a red 1 mantle lantern for 5 bucks with the case, model 413 and 425 stoves for 10 to 20 bucks. I have an old 3 burner stove and one of the fold up ovens you use on the stove and they go on every trip I take. The key like I said is estate sales. Always enjoy your videos and adventures. Let the Mrs. know I’m still standing by for her to break out the cast iron Dutch oven on a trip to cook the meal in. Be safe, and keep up the videos. Semper Fi Doc
Great job on the interior refresh. Just FYI, either keep those original seats or sell them as they are highly sought after for FSJ guys wanting original stuff, they are not reproduced!
Hey Brad. Glad to see you continuing to press on the fire extinguisher and FA kit. You should give some consideration to upsizing the extinguisher to at least a 5 or better a 10# rather than that 2.5# unit.
Love this project! One thing I’d have done with the headliner off- would have used rust oleum truck liner instead of rust stop. That will inherently encapsulate the rust, but also add more insulation, for both noise and heat.
Congratulations on completing the stage of your build. I’m still looking at a classic Cherokee or Wagoneer as my next tow vehicle I wanna be able to work on it myself but we’ll see how things go; there still a lot of life left in Grand Cherokee WK2.
I finally got my new gauges for my 79 Ramcharger. I should be able to get it all wired over the next month. Then some basic maintenance from sitting the last four years. Doing carpet after I get a cage in it. Then the soft top can finally go on. Not sure the cage, carpet and soft top will happen before Moab in October. Your interior green is very similar to mine. My exterior green is darker. It needs a repaint after 44 years. Eight years in Oceanside air gave it a bunch of patina. Normally I don’t mind that but this truck was gorgeous the first 10 years I had it. It deserves the new paint. I had most of that gear or my dad and grandpa did. So cool. Love the new exhaust.
I spent months over the covid time restoring my family's 64 el camino, it's rewarding to finally see it all fresh at the end after a ton of hard work and long hours. I have a full playlist on my channel.
I bet the Cherokee definitely runs better now that it can actually breathe. Dual Exhaust though more aesthetically pleasing doesn't necessarily equate to having more flow either. The Cherokee sounds amazing and has a much more modern sound now compared to that old fabracobbled exhaust system.
All of these 'time pieces' are ones that I grew up with when we went camping from VT to Freeport ME with my father. Crazy what is old is new again ... and in fashion! Great video. Excited to see the results of your hard work, not to mention the future plans.
Love your prickly pear! I have my ARB compressor behind the passenger side rear panel right inside the tailgate there. It fits perfect. Just a thought for the future. Safe travels!
Love how it looks and sounds. You've put in a lot of time and some money into getting this on the road, and I can't wait to see the videos with it. Thanks, and until next time... Travel safe.
Love magnaflow as a company, I just have never liked how their straight through mufflers sound on throttle, but that's personal preference. I love the idea of the metallic cats to cut down on raw fuel smell, I am planning to do the same on my '64 fairlane! Great video!
I always learn something new watching your videos. Can’t wait until my wife and I get our Jeep and get out on the road. Great upload as always, thank you
Love the progress on the jeep! We absolutely love the vintage old Coleman camping gear! Brings back so many great memories as a kid. I’d completely forgot about the water cooler and camp kitchen cable! Putting gas into the stove and pumping it up. Replacing gloves in the lanterns… Now you need to get a couple of vehicle color matching web lawn chairs!🤩. Be so cool to see this set up at a car show or coffee & cars 👍👍👍🙌😍
Don’t think I didn’t notice the brief socks and sandals shots while derustifying that roof! That’s dedication to your style for sure. Can’t wait to encounter this thing on the trails here.
Hello! Coleman make beautiful, brand-new coolers, stoves, and lanterns, from the 1900 Collection to other vintage lines like the cooler in this video, it looks identical, is cheaper, works well, and 'It's Green!". The stove and kitchen are amazing!!!
I understand just wanting to get it on the road, but just taking the time to really address the rust is always the best option. Painting over rust never works and covering it with sound-damping material is just going to make a bad time for the next guy who wants to do it right. You should have removed the roof cross members and chemically removed or walnut shell blasted the rust. Yes, it would have taken some more time, but it would have been a completely correct job that would never have to be revisited again.
Jesus this exhaust guy is the real deal. He is awesome. He needs his own show
Look up exhaustinglife…
He’s been on just about every Overhaulin episode
Can't believe how excited I have been to see someone else have their Jeep ready for the trail! LOL This is such a cool build, glad you stuck with the build and made it happen.

LOL! He is a great guy!
Love that green. Makes miss my 88 cherokee
You have a big impact in Australia Love your work
That mess kit brought back some memories.
Seeing some of these old school camping items brings back memories of camping with my parents when I was young. That’s great stuff. Thank you

I've been waiting for this video! Coleman will still service old lanterns, probably stoves too. Their price is reasonable and the fact that they still support their old products is amazing.
Love this vehicle and this was a great video too. With these old classics, we just need to know their limits and accept them.
Yes we do!

Wow! Glad things turned out alright for you!
I remember when Rich did every exhaust on Overhaulin.
Brad she sounds fantastic and looks great in that colour. That’s now the next Jeep I want.

It's quickly becoming my favorite Jeep of your's.
That was a awesome video thank you so much Brad..

Love the old school Jeep and having a modern technology exhaust will help it to run better than when new.
That explanation about exhaust systems was excellent!!
love old cars,trucks and any 4×4s..
that's a unique setup there..
You are my favorite entertainment channel, Hollywood could learn a few things about entertainment from you
Thank you so much! I'm not sure I'm that good, but appreciate you saying so!

Hey Brad,
The Cherokee is coming along nicely. The exhaust sounds good and looks really clean.
On the subject of your search for vintage period correct Coleman camping gear, I have a friend who goes to every estate sale he can find and has come up with stoves, single and double mantel lanterns, coolers, water jugs, and the old Coleman catalyst heaters. Every bit of it has been brand new, purchased and never used and all still in the original boxes and from the 40’s,50’s,60’s, and 70’s.
He has come up with this gear really inexpensively. Like he found a red 1 mantle lantern for 5 bucks with the case, model 413 and 425 stoves for 10 to 20 bucks. I have an old 3 burner stove and one of the fold up ovens you use on the stove and they go on every trip I take.
The key like I said is estate sales.
Always enjoy your videos and adventures.
Let the Mrs. know I’m still standing by for her to break out the cast iron Dutch oven on a trip to cook the meal in.
Be safe, and keep up the videos.

Thank you! Estate sales are a good idea and something I've never thought about.
Great job on the interior refresh. Just FYI, either keep those original seats or sell them as they are highly sought after for FSJ guys wanting original stuff, they are not reproduced!
Big Magnaflow fan and that new exhaust sounds superb. 🙌🏼
Hey Brad. Glad to see you continuing to press on the fire extinguisher and FA kit. You should give some consideration to upsizing the extinguisher to at least a 5 or better a 10# rather than that 2.5# unit.
She was always ready!
Love your collaborations with Magnaflow!
You should’ve named the episode “Fifty Shades of Green”.
Trucks looking good! Always wanted one of these!
LOL!
Magnaflow nailed it on the exhaust. Sounds wonderful 👍👍
Yes they did!
I too would love to teach myself to weld. When you take the leap, I'd love to see a video of the welding "starter kit" you decide to use.
Love this project! One thing I’d have done with the headliner off- would have used rust oleum truck liner instead of rust stop. That will inherently encapsulate the rust, but also add more insulation, for both noise and heat.
I have use a similar type of gas stove, much newer, but same type. It was cool.
Liquid fuel goes sooo much farther. I still use my 1980's MSR G/K multi-fuel
Congratulations on completing the stage of your build. I’m still looking at a classic Cherokee or Wagoneer as my next tow vehicle I wanna be able to work on it myself but we’ll see how things go; there still a lot of life left in Grand Cherokee WK2.
Great progress on ‘Ole Prickly Pear!👍
Looks Great! Sounds even better! I'm looking forward to all the trail videos with Project Prickly Pear! We'll done Brad!

One final thing for prickly pear that gas cap get yourself a red shop rag and stick in the tube that will give it that period look.
That 392 has upped your senses when it comes to having your exhaust system tuned! Another first-rate video. Wonderful work on your Cherokee!
I recommend putting down low profile rails in that cargo area for tie downs.

Hi Brad I like the way you introduce improvement on your reborn jeep, its educational me too is a jeep lover. Que Tingas Un Buen Dia.
Great job redoing this beauty

I stand to salute you for your service MASTER CHIEF.🏴☠

Man that thing is beautiful. I’m jealous.
I couldn't stop smiling in this video from start to finish. Love seeing you get that old girl back in shape!

You should have removed the roof cross members and chemically removed or walnut shell blasted the rust. Yes, it would have taken some more time, but it would have been a completely correct job that would never have to be revisited again.
