Today is all about chopping the top off of the Jeep Cherokee project.
Was bound to happen, and here it is happening. Cheeky as it sounds, it's just how this project was bound to end up.....
Comment about what you think about it..

Cheers guys for all your patience, making more videos as we speak.

New Tommy is easier to understand, however, all this traveling abroad has negatively affected his choice in beer and safety standards. 3/10 not a recommended modification.

If* you or anyone you know does this, just know the roof is a major structural component of the entire unibody. If possible keep the a b and c pillars intact and reinforce them for a makeshift roll cage. Cut the thin roof off and do a custom soft top around the factory pillars. Lots to do with the XJ

What I would like to see: An Air system! I see simple things like lockers and whatnot but never an air system. Air lockers, Air pump, hose for airing up tires after they are aired down for the trail, the tank I will get to in a bit, and maybe a hose to provide air to a water tank like this ( kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mq1ie65qr9mlmqs.html ) . Now the tank for this system I heard you can use a tubular bumper. Tap holes in the pipes where they weld together so each one has a connection for air to flow and there you go. The bumper is an air tank.

I never saw or thought about the AC compressor as a pump either, guess because I live in Texas and our problems are keeping the AC working.

Better cutting and faster. I don't know why anybody uses a sawsall to cut metal when an angle grinder with a zip cut does it in easily a quarter of the time
@dansanford8430
@dansanford8430 6 жыл бұрын
Reach. It comes up that it's a pita to fit the grinder in, or you want to cut a second wall 3" from the first, and the deathwheel just don't reach. Sawsall is handy at that point.
@Alex-hf5kg
@Alex-hf5kg 6 жыл бұрын
7" angle grinder 9" angle grinder. And I guantee you sawzall doesn't have as low a profile or as high of effectiveness within the reach that those can cut. Yes you can get long blades for the sawzall, but they aren't going to be very effective if all you have is the end of the blade, and using one quite frankly leaves me feeling like I got beat up by mike tyson. And on top of all that I already mentioned, their reciprocating action makes sloppier cuts than a zip cut
@dansanford8430
@dansanford8430 6 жыл бұрын
Alex I've never seen deathwheels for the big grinders. But, while that helps with the reach, it still won't help when the grinder doesn't fit to make the cut. Which is the other reason for the sawsall. Which yeah, is crude, and shakes the piss outta stuff. That's why it's not the go to. But it has a role, and those are examples of why it gets used for sheetmetal.

That's dumb to do to a unibody. A lot of the structural rigidity comes from the roof and it's being connected to the A, B, and C pillars. That last pillar in the back isn't so important, but the rest of it is, and you just seriously reduced it's crash-worthiness, not to mention handling. You can cut the roof off an XJ, but for some reason I never see anybody do it right.
