Fred, thank you for putting in the effort to keep us entertained and informed!

I'm overjoyed that you, Dave, Tony (who hopefully does well at Hagerty now), and Mike have your own channels and are uploading content. MT's decision to drop the good shows (OG stuff!) and innundate its subscribers with garbage as of late is reason enough for me to cancel my subscription at the end of its term in February. Lucky needs to walk out and leave HRG hanging.....real talent and wit there!

Laughed at that someone said you wore glasses to look cool. People are fascinating. Thanks for your content.

I always enjoyed your shows Fred !

As an iron worker for twenty years, I've tried a lot of ways to make tube steal look 'nice'. This looks great and is no doubt better designed.

Fred, that bumper looks like a pain in the ass to install. Is does look good but wow.

Your buddy Dave needs to smile once in a while.

Toss a couple old pillows and a Jeep blanket in your Warn popcorn tray, and it would be a pretty legit bed for Baxter and Batman!

You should do a video about wiring up a winch. I haven't found a good way to wire up a winch and be able to protect the wiring.

I remember changing my front & rear plastic bumpers on my Rubicon.... what a PIA that was, lol. All the screws just to get the fogs lights and rear bumper sensors out, sheesh! Jelly of that AEV bumper, but man they are expensive.

Looks great…can’t wait to see how it holds up at UA

Phenomenal channel, what a cool project .

Your presentation on the AEV bumper was interesting and informative. Light, functional & meeting your interests & you got a decent sized winch to add on. It caught my attention though, as I have a 2dr. (white) Rubicon (also have a 4dr) both used for over landing. I bought them (9/7 yrs ago ,used), the 2dr. had a 2" lift and plastic bumpers. After one year they cracked, along with the muffler & my tire/mechanic shop (I know the owner well) suggested metal bumpers. He had a close friend that was 2nd in command at Teraflex. Two days later, the shop picked up front (hooped) & rear metal bumpers and put them on, along with a winch. Later a Factor 55 closed system was put on the winch cable. Since then I've seen so many bumper "systems", (regional, emphasis) with so many preferences & styles. Your system, many components, but obviously lighter. It was interesting though, having you "walk through" the process. There are a lot of players in the 4WD, rock, overland process; many vendors, manufacturers, web sites, and a constellation & Pandora of options for the public. What I see advertised & pushed on the coasts, midwest, south & elsewhere, all so different, and many products(often) high quality and meeting the needs of vehicle owners. Some products; shocks, axles & of course wheels & tires, with a "national name" & reputation. Regardless, you assist in the education & instruction process and that greatly assists (many, I'm certain).

Lots of stuff I have thought about it done but when watching I feel like I am learning something new every video. Keep posting!

Nice upgrade. Looks good too. Love Dirt! Thanks

Another enjoyable video Fred. Keep up the great work.

The printed script was an amazing addition for me! Very professional move for the hard of hearing!

Freaking LOVE AEV products.. Looks great Fred

I love that bumper! I am definitely a fan on how this build is coming together. :)

Great video, love how the build is coming along. You're becoming a great videographer, the sound has become so much better in the last few videos. Keep the videos coming.
