Wouldn't be opposed to the idea, but would want to see the products first

@@Jeep_psychology_101 Can I get your contact info?🥰

Thank you, I'm so lucky that Ria is like a human gimbal... I've never seen anyone who can walk with a camera like that, keep the subject in frame, and luckily she didn't get wet enough to melt! Thank you again for watching and subscribing!

Thank you, we really appreciate it!

Thank you very much and I hope you enjoy our channel!!!😁👍🏻

You're right, I see what you're looking at

How are you doing Two Feather Channel? Was surprising that Ria had never seen a moose considering that she grew up in Montana. If you get a chance to check out some dinosaur tracks, it's worth the time to stop. The tracks most prominent at red gulch are an unknown species that, to date, no skeleton remains have been found. Possibly a large bird or bipedal reptile that walked on two legs. Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed the video

@@hobolife8968 thank you, and thank you for watching

Brian was awesome ! The two tools I didn't have was a drill and a hole saw, which he gladly loaned me. We were able to re pack the bearing with a screwdriver and a can of bearing grease. Made it on the trail and all the way back to South Dakota with the injured bearing... thank you for the comment and thanks for watching

We had some of those too... But they tend to float out of the gold pan !!! Thanks for watching!

Our breakdowns tend to be preceded by a driver moment of stupidity, and would usually require a lot more cleanings/gold panning to make a dent in the cost of repairs... thank you for the comment and thanks for watching !

Thank you, the results were outstanding, especially once we got it out on the trail. Thanks for watching! Hope to see you out on the trail 😎👍🏻

True. Even a frame that's still in what's considered "good" condition will have some rust flakes in it, after all, these jeeps are 20+ years old. All the more reason to not neglect the frame. Keep them clean, especially on the inside, and treat them with rust converter and then use a good old fashioned frame wax ( applied inside the frame) to stop all moisture and oxygen from feeding the rust. Thanks for watching and hope to see you out on the trail 😎👍🏻

TJ on steroids.... Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!

Hope you found this information useful! Thank you for watching 😎👍🏻

You're the first person to notice or mention it....no if you're referring to the extra structure in the roll bar, that's a light weight welded steel frame, wood and fiberglass subwoofer enclosure with a 12" infinity subwoofer and a pair of infinity 6" coaxial speakers, we couldn't part with the tiny little bit of room for camping and prospecting gear that the TJ has so we went up with the sound system. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment Hope to see you out on the trail 😎👍🏻

​​ I meant using 1/4" plate underneath instead of the 1/2"? Yours is beefy 4 sure, but angle irons running parallel to the frame from the top could make thinner plate less likely to bend from rocks, maybe perpendicular where they fit. Airplanes use "stringers" the same way. Awesome work tho! Love your bolt head protection.

@ohane1 my decision to use 3/8 was based on a project from my real job. We had to move a scissor lift , and three large cabinets for an uninterrupted power supply into the UV treatment building of a waste water plant, had to move them across a three foot wide channel in the floor. The project engineer spec'd 3/8 plate, 3' wide to move a 5000 pound battery rack across without caving in...it didn't even flex moving that equipment across. Would take one hell of an impact to bend or dent it

@@Jeep_psychology_101 For sure, yours won't bend! Great work, if materials are free that's cool. I was saying if I was buying steel, I'd go lighter & thin then make strong reinforcing from the top. You have lot's of HP though, so weight matters less.

@@ohane1 the piece of steel was only $120.00...plus tax...I feel like it was a small price to pay for 3 more inches of clearance. In the middle of building sliders now. A bit more in them... will have @ $210.00 in them. Also because of the 4.7 I'm starting out a full 90 pounds lighter than if it was a 4.0 inline six

Well...I wasn't this old and ugly when I reeled her in... LMFAO 🤣 Thank you... yes my wife is very beautiful and thank you for watching!

Honestly, if you read every word that was posted on the TJ forums, anyone would get the idea that every TJ out there is a total POS... The truth is far from that. My experience with them is that they are very dependable and solid built. Yes, there were some issues, like with the oil pump drive, and yes, I'd be wary of one that came from the rust belt... but the smiles that a TJ brings are priceless! Thank you for watching and I hope to see you out on the trail!

Same 4.7 SOHC engine, not really a magnum as the overhead cams dictate a hemispherical head, more like a hemi than a magnum, But yes. I had to use an older one to get the 16 tooth reluctor . Thanks for watching and thanks for the comments 😎👍🏻

@@Jeep_psychology_101 thanks for the reply, I’ll be in touch in the future. I have a nice ram in my yard for the jeep :)

If you have any questions about the swap, I'd be happy to share my knowledge with you... thanks again for watching

Agreed 😎👍🏻 I'd take an old school wrangler over a soccer mom Grand wagoneer any day... Thanks for watching and please check out more of our channel

Thank you for watching!

Thank you Darrel, I understand that the subject matter is kinda dry and boring, but we felt that the information was important, and the correlation between weight, load range, sidewall and tread ply was important. Thanks again for watching and hope to see you out on the trail 😎👍🏻

Agree...in my opinion, the TJ is the easiest to modify, simple enough for the average enthusiast to work on themselves and has the best trail performance in the most situations. Thanks for watching and if you're not already subscribed please join us!

Thank you! I had been wanting to do that to it for about a year now...steel prices were down, so just did it. Only $140.00 to do it 😎👍🏻 Thanks again for watching and please subscribe if you're not already!

Thank you! Will do!

Right?

Thanks for the comment, but be aware that in many states, you can't sell a vehicle with a frame cap repair. I'm well aware of the frame cap kits, and I have done one for a friend on a Toyota Tacoma... but about three years later the truck folded in half about 18" behind the frame cap, despite all the efforts to remove all rust from inside the remaining"good " part of the frame. Only prolonged the inevitable. Thanks for watching and good luck with your build

I feel ya'...ours started with a shelled 2.5 L4...then a V8... Then two shelled axels and a transfer case...we always wheel keeping in mind we have to drive it home 👍🏻 So what are you working on with your Jeep project?

Thank you! 😎👍🏻

Maybe I missed something. But you need a body lift to do that right?

While there are tummy tuck kits, like the tera flex belly up skid plate that will gain about 1 3/4" of ground clearance, to get this much ground clearance, yes, a body lift and engine/transmission lift is necessary. Because of the 4.7 V8 swap, we already had to raise the body and the engine/ transmission 3". This build is extreme. But lifting the body is easy, and lifting the motor mounts only takes a little bit of creative fabrication. Thanks for watching, Hope you enjoyed the video

Thank you for the compliment, and thank you for watching! If you're not already subscribed, you're welcome to join us and we hope to see you out on the trail ! 😎👍🏻

Thank you... That means a lot to us. We'll keep the videos coming !

Thank you for watching! In our defense on the tire pressure, we were actually at 12 psi at the time the video was recorded. At the time we ordered the tires, covid lockdowns were in full force, and the light truck version of the Mickey Thompson Baja Boss tires were completely out of stock, with no projected delivery date. We opted to take a set of the truck tires...not light truck...3 ply sidewall and load range E. The upside...we will probably never slash a sidewall....the downside...we're just not heavy enough to flatten the tires for the bigger contact patch. Next time we record a trail video, we're going all the way down to 8 psi, and we're going to record the gauge Thanks again, Hope you'll stick with us, we've got a lot more to come

@@Jeep_psychology_101 Wow, makes sense. Sure didn't look aired down, but I didn't know about that aspect. I possibly made a mistake buying my falcon wildpeaks, they're F rated... I am in a much heavier sequoia, but still, I hope I haven't hindered my ability to get that low pressure grip..

What's up Daniel, I just looked it up, I think you're going to be fine, at minimum, you weigh 1500 pounds more than we do, and if you're building an overland rig, you're surely going to be adding weight to it. And I'm going off of base models, if you're loaded with options you could be 2500 pounds heavier than us. Hope to see you out on the trail!

Thank you for the feedback Jeff, If there is one thing I've learned in my first year as a KZfaq creator, it's that you can't please everyone. The information in the video is as good as it gets, even though basic geometry is boring as whale feces, most people don't understand the cause and effect of lifting a TJ A remake of the video is pretty much out of the question, as all of my raw footage was lost two weeks ago to a hard drive crash. At this point, I would have to remake all of the videos. Thank you for watching , thank you for the feedback, and i hope you'll check out some of our older videos in the V8 swap wiring series, I promise there's no music.

Yes....Yes we were

Thanks

Warms my heart to hear stories like that... every Jeep deserves to get out and have some fun 😁... thank you for liberating the little YJ from dead storage hell !!! Thanks for watching and thanks for the great story 😎👍🏻

Hello Terry, I was surprised by the ride quality of the rough country springs/shocks, I was expecting a ride like a lumber wagon, but it was closer to a Cadillac. There's no difference between the left and right springs, however, feel the lower spring perch from the coil end stop, and make sure the spring is properly seated. Also, my experience with rough country, don't expect more than two years out of the shocks. Thanks for watching and hope to see you out on the trail!

@@Jeep_psychology_101 thanks for the info keep on jeepin

That's been similar to our experience with on x, this is not the first time we've been either without service and the downloads disappeared or been led to width restriction trails. Was recommended to me to try avenza maps. Seems like a good app so far

We've come to the conclusion that a compass and graph paper is probably more reliable than on x. We've only purchased the basic package to try it, and it may be different for elite members, but this isn't the first time it's led us on an adventure. Thanks for watching and we hope you enjoyed the video

Thanks Tom, we have not been happy with on x , didn't know about avenza, but we have downloaded it and it seems to be a better app. Going east from where Sugar shack was, some of the gates were open or we wouldn't have been up there. My fault for assuming the forest service had opened them

Right??? Only so many videos of babes in bikinis at Jeep Beach you can watch before they all start to look the same... incidentally... I have reliable info that the trail we stumbled on is an "event only" trail called "Cheerios" , which I found surprising because it's nowhere near any of the other "cereal bowl" trails. Thanks for watching and we'll try to keep posting videos of trails other than Moab

LMAO 🤣 ! Ria says they didn't need a map because they had a native guide!😎👍🏻

Mosquito control... LMFAO 😂... seriously, the smoke is two fold, the 4.7 V8 is straight outta the salvage yard, compression is very good, valve stem seals are very bad... also the 4.7 has a design flaw that if you're in a steep climb, it can pick up oil through the crankcase ventilation which is on the back of the heads. Thank you for watching and we'll keep the videos coming! Editing one now for the "got milk?" Trail that's more old school Wheelin' on a trail that's probably more difficult than it's actual rating! Thanks again

You're not wrong... that's why they make frame cap kits and replacement panels... so our beloved Jeeps can live on forever! Thanks for watching Hope to see you out on the trail!
