Hi Fred....of course all of us hate that DED has been cancelled but honestly a 30 minute show with all of the commercials doesn't beat getting to see you in the shop Every Day! Hopefully you and Dave can do some crazy videos together pretty soon.

Can't wait until you and Dave can work together on projects again. Motor Trend did you guys dirty .

Since there’s no DED, one of you need to get the pink Bigfoot!

Thanks for these new videos, it's a shame you've been forced to switch platforms. Keep them coming.

Hugs not slugs.

Gonna miss DED, just because of the fun and banter with you and Dave, but I'm loving these dailies

Looking forward to more great work Fred! I hope you and Dave can still get together for collaborations!!

Yes I noticed the t-shirt. Just figured you keep working while filming and breaking it into smaller clips. Keep them coming.

That's a rather specific reason on why to wear gloves... ;) Love it.

Fred great to be able to get detailed videos of what it takes to disassemble one of todays vehicles. On the other hand where is Baxter and Batman these days?

How'd you know I eat popcorn when I watch your videos?

Fred posts, I watch.

Fred, this makes for great video!! I would much rather see content of you doing your thing in the shop a few times a week than a cooperate show that rarely uploads compared to what it used to be when it first started. This is much better!

One step closer bud . Cheers

Hey Fred I picked up my 2004 Rocky Mountain TJ 100% due to your first videos, my wife laughs as I drive around With a big grin. It’s in pretty good shape although I’ve been doing a few surface rust repairs surprise ignition switch failure…, I’m no mechanic with a few KZfaq clips I can genuinely figure it out including a bad clock Spring. I literally (like I wrote about it lol) had never heard of a clock spring. Tks again for the keeping going.

Fred Every Day! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👍👍

Love the content longer episodes maybe 20 t0 30 awesome other wise rock on

Awesome work 👍, hope to see some adventures with this truck soon

Love these short videos, can’t wait for the next one

Awsome video Fred. I uses to catch you once in awhile as I didn't have cable. So it's great to see you here. You have an awsome personality that I find entertaining. Please keep doing what your doing.. lol would love to see something of a stupid build. I remember you once did something with a motorhome frame.. if I remember correctly.. anyhow. Thanks for sharing

Glad you didn’t drop the transfer case on your foot, or cut your buttered popcorn fingers. Can’t wait to see how this protect turns out.

Nice to see you so often!

I know you guess have probably done it before but you always seem to do it with a complete drive train replacement. Can you do a video on a nv4500 5 speed overdrive transmission swap in place of a granny geared 420 or 465 4 speed in a GM pick up. I have a 72 k20 with the usual 350 , 4 speed and the 205 transfer case …all cast iron. There seems to be some confusion on going with a hydraulic clutch or keep the mechanical clutch linkage , the 10 spline adapter between the transfer and trans. Also the adapters between bellhousing and transfer.

Fred , we should make a compilation of the bolts put in locations that cause extreme difficulty to perform a task , like the 10mm bolts located in such a way that I had to remove the entire front Fascia to get to them out to replace the turbo on my Wife's Saab 9.5

Awesome loved it

I remember you modified the socket to work on code 1, The New JL surprised us with those unreachable bolts....

Fred, who ended up getting the pink bigfoot costume? Was that one of Dave's jobs? Lol

Yo super Fred, Firstly keep up the good work and motivation👍. Secondly I know Dirt Daily was kinda an offshoot off DED, but don't be afraid to give us multiple days work and less tutorial. I think most people are here to support you and Dave while keeping up with your projects on the whole, and see your adventures. If you haven't seen her videos yet check out Sara - N - Tuned, she does restoration and vehicle reviews and keeps everyone entertained with quirky humor, and good video edits.

Fred, NAILED IT , again

I think evey engineer should have to spend time in the shop working on the vehicles they designed! 😆 🤣 😂 give them a hug from me too please!

Great video. Thanks Fred.

Oddly specific popcorn story.

Yikes. I've had XJs all my life, and a CJ5. I had been thinking about getting a JL (to be honest a project just like this would be pretty cool) but the look of that trans cooler and bizarre exhaust, both the resonator by the rear axle (maybe downstream catalyst?) and the loop the y-pipe does next to the trans it all just looks way too complicated to enjoy and service in my own garage for both daily AND recreational use. Maybe I'm just spoiled on the simplicity of older Jeeps. I'm also not fond of the idea of tangling with Rzeppa joint driveshafts.

Good work

Coffee can full of oil dry is a nice tip. Thanks

Got to love the engineers 🎉🎉 🤦‍♂️

totally noticed the shirt frm the last episode lol

I've caught a transfer case before in the jy. No fun hand was bruised front and back, still broke the vent tube. Lol

manual transmission should take care of that transmission cooler problem :-D

Sents you got tube sock, should name then JL ankle sock.

How’d the biodiesel work in the seized engine?

David Tracy worked on the cooling system. I wonder if he knows who designed that part.

I hate that dirt every day is done that and roadkill were my favorites

Hey I am facing issue with my 2021 jeep jl transmission Its hard shifting from 4th to 3rd when slowing also there is a jerk in the 4th gear. The transmission was replaced by the dealer and still the problem continues.The dealer dont even know whats the problem and neither do i Any suggestions? Please

Keep up the great work and content Fred. While I enjoyed the DED with everything that is in me, I am subscribed and will follow along with you and Dave both. Not sure what happened with Motor trend. But I feel like they did the viewers dirty when they stopped putting things on YT and made everything about the Paid MT TV. Sounds like they did ALL of their content makers dirty...

That T shirt is from the Old Fashioned drinking competition. So how many did you have to get the shirt?

Hi Fred ,I don’t know what the T-shirt is but you have grown a beard an your hair is much longer than the previous video….🍺🇦🇺

Are you going to do Dirt Daily Merchandise?

Huh, didn't realize the ZF 8 speed meant Jeep went away from the long-standing 6 bolt pattern.

I wonder what flat rate is at the dealership and how do the guys there pull an engine ?

So much anger towards engineers. It’s not their fault that they know how to do it better than you… Engineers are the best!

Yay!

Fred so what was the excuse for canceling DED.... did they even tell you

You know, Fred, that sometime, long ago, a mechanic had an affair with an engineers wife. It's been downhill since.

Hey Fred, is that a "NP" transfer case? doesn't look anything like my NP231? Where's Dave? I know, who was the pink Sas quash, Big Foot in " DED"? We all have to know!!!

That bolt is optional on reassembly. reference service manual powertrain section, page 17 paragraph 7, step 6.

Cancelled my motor trend since the dirtheads are on KZfaq now!

sailor Jerry rum shirt

805👍🏽

8:00 💰😜

I'm realizing that between you and Dirthead Dave, Dave is a little farther ahead as far as going independent. Having a production crew makes it much easier for the main characters. When the show is over, you can see who was ready to go independent when the party's over.

Hope you washed your t shirt .

1st!

Keep the Fiat build going

Mechanics should be able to punch engineers everytime they make a dumb design. I bet they would make things easier to work on then.
