HOW TO repair cracked windshield…will it work?
Did you do the long term effect video? Just curios, I didn't seem to find that if so.
Unfortunately, the jeep was totaled shortly after I recorded this video so I wasn't able to do the follow up video
@@dadlifetexan Ohh no, hopefully you where ok. Thanks either way, like the video, about to dig into it myself.
Does the reset tool work for adding larger tires, or do I need something else? I have 33s and new moto rims.
Assuming you kept the factory TPMs sensors it should work. If the new tires and wheels came with their own sensors then I’m really not sure.
Sounds good! Quick question... does it sound funny when it goes into 4 cylinders like a helicopter? Did the same thing to my wifes 2022 tahoe and got that helicopter effect. Ended up putting the muffler back on 🤷
I actually ended up wiring the flapper valve open all the time so I never really had that issue
I'd clean the torch then polish
Good idea
Torch method would be good as a one time thing. Then just keep on top of it once a month with a good black polish to maintain color. Good video
awesome, thanks
also if u can’t clean the white part at the bottom use nail polish remover it’s works
thanks, i'll have to try that
I use the torch and let cool befor I using the plastic product . Works great using both techniques together.
That's a great idea!
What do you use?
Wait why cant i thonk if a downside to this😂
lol
Why not use both methods. Burn it. Seal it.
Just received this device yesterday from Amazon. Used it today on my 2022 Chevy Silverado High Country and it worked like a charm. Hardest part was finding a 9v battery. Thanks.
Haha yeah not something I usually keep around either
Pushed dislike with the greatest of satisfaction just for this crapsack earrape music.
Good video. Just reset my sensors on my 21 AT4. Thanks.👍
Awesome man, glad it helped
Nothing like a good candle to remove all the bad things 😂
lol exactly
Is it road legal? Like noise compliance?
Completely legal here in Texas
I know this is a long time ago now , but, why didnt you just service the starter ? 30 mins job .
Probably would have been the better option
I found a McQuires Hot Shine Tire Coating spray that I use on my plastic parts. You have to be careful to wipe it off the paint. But it’s fast and works great. Not the foam stuff. It’s an aerosol spray.
Awesome, thanks for the tip. I’ll have to check it out.
No follow up? 😥👎
unfortunately, this jeep was totaled shortly after I did this video
Hey man I’m interested in getting the same delete, do you still recommend ? Have you had any issues?
No issues at all, everything has been good
could you use a heat gun insted of a torch?
heat gun works ok, but i think blow torch would work better
you can use a heat gun, but the torch is definitely faster
@@dadlifetexan ok, thanks
Do you have a link to the tool you used? I purchased 2 of these on Amazon and neither one worked like the one in your video. Thanks for your help.
oh man, no good...here is the link to the one I bought a.co/d/87qWcxL
ha, there is a reason they are going to thermoplastic (uhmwpe) for the next gen stealth fighters. so easy to repair with improvised tools.
Ha nice
it doesn't last. Actually you are exacerbating the problem. A couple of weeks and there you go
Yeah haven't found anything that actually lasts, any tips?
@@dadlifetexan Nope, only temporary remedies th-cam.com/video/XXOX4z6uwXo/w-d-xo.html If you love hard work and the other side of plastic part is like new you could go with this plan th-cam.com/video/Fwk_fNEeH6Q/w-d-xo.html This is the most effective way but also time consuming. If the area is too large, go for painting like Trim Black by SEM Products for black parts. My 2 cents
It’s called Pro tex, by pro xl. The best yet.
Hey, I think the torch was the best way to go, the heat brings the oils in the plastic out and it is pretty permanent Vs the other, you will have to redo it a lot to keep it that way. And don't worry about the trolls and the negative comments, we all get em lol. P.S. I looked for the next video you said you were gonna do later on, I see you didn't make anymore showing how they looked months down the road, which is looking best today? 👋🤠
yeah, if it works it works! couldn't do an update video because the jeep was actually totaled shortly after the video was recorded...
Two words. Donkey gelatin. Works like magic.
interesting
The torch is the way to go bro, thanks for the video!
yeah man!
Or shoe shine
Torching them last about 2 weeks then its worse. Back to black sucks too
Anything you recommend?
@dadlifetexan I used duplicator trim and bumper paint on my van bumper. It has a few scratches in it now, but it ain't faded white anymore. Thinking about putting another coat on it. Its been 2 years.
I’ll have to check it out, thanks!
Just curious if you have the 5.3 or the 6.2? A lot of exhausts I'm finding are saying they're for 3" exhausts, when the exhaust on my 5.3 is 2.75". Has me hesitant on ordering them if they're not gonna fit.
5.3
@@dadlifetexan Yeah i re-watched the video after and realize you said it in the beginning! Appreciate the answer all the same! Pipe should be here tuesday for my truck!
@@chris440x awesome man, you're gonna love it
How does it sound inside while driving?
Better than stock but honestly not that much noise
McGuire doesn’t work on my 2002 crv.
Found anything that does?
I have a trailboss. I could never hear it idle until I deleted it.
Exactly why I wanted to do this
How long did the torch hold up?
It lasted for a while, but unfortunately, this jeep was totaled about a month after I recorded this video...
Oh man! That sucks!
I'm finishing up my coffee and heading out to chop off the HUGE muffler and replace with the muffler delete by MBRP. I too will be leaving flapper valve for now and then possibly do the spring mod to keep it open. Likely I'll run with this until I save up some sheckles for the full cat back. Truck sounds great man, nice job!
Awesome, glad you enjoyed the video!
What is the long time effect?
It works pretty well for a while, but the jeep was totaled about a month after the video
like the vid but not a fan of the music lol. =P
lol yeah...my bad on that
How proud your neighbors must be
No worries, I have a quiet diesel now
Did you ever do an update video at either one week or one month? I haven’t seen either on your channel.
Well, funny story. This jeep was actually totaled about 2 weeks after recording this video.
Who’s the woman that pulled up @06:54? She’s definitely throwing vibes out for some Texan Daddy good times.
lol
💪
Cerakote came out tops on Project Farm channel. I used it and it worked great.
Good to know!
K why does this work so well?? Thx btw
lol yeah it works pretty well!
Wow those plastic fenders … what was Jeep thinking , way too much plastic. 🥴 I’m sorry but even when it looks new, it’s still bad 😂
agreed
Had a muffler shop remove the muffler and flapper on our 6.2L. Left the rear resonators in place. Sounds amazing and only cost me $100.
Oh awesome, I’m sure that 6.2 sounds nice
Is there a drone?
Never mind...I saw the answer in other comments!
Did you keep your resonator near your rear axle ?
Yeah I did, haven’t addressed that yet
Dose it void warranty
no, it doesn't affect warranty at all
How about the drone sound
not really noticeable at all
I use a heat gun and works great
yes definitely
Mine will be here tomorrow, going on 24 TB 5.3L. Did you ever have to adjust your clamps after driving?
After a few days I crawled under to make sure they were tight but they didn’t really loosen up at all. Honestly I haven’t checked since then.
Good deal, thanks man!
Did your engine light flash ?
Nope
Wash, burn, wipe and then the polish. Looks great, I am a professional detail restorer and this is the method I have used for years, great results. Good video though.
awesome, thanks for the tip
Is it the heat or the flame? Like could you use a high temp heat gun?
@@crushingsnakes1976 you can use a heat gun
