I’ll have to check this out next year I’m from East Jordan area
We do it every October. I post the info up on my Facebook group #NorthernMichiganXJs.
@ awesome I’m not on Facebook very much but will keep an eye out !
Well done video. Two things to add: 1) Important! Take the bolt out of the end of your proportioning valve, remove the inner valve shaft and eliminate the O ring. Reinstall shaft and bolt. Now you've got full pressure to the rear calipers vs. reduced pressure you had for the drum brakes. Makes a big difference (esp. when backing down a hill!) 2) While you've got the rear diff open and the axle shafts out, a shoebox locker (Spartan, Aussie, Monkey Grip, etc.) is definitely in order. Costs less than the brake upgrade {$186 on Ebay 1/4/25} and will take you a lot further up the trail! Happy wheelin' y'all!
Did that with the proportioning valve. And I installed a front spartan locker.
You need bigger tires. Most suburban run 37" tires with a 6" lift. I run 35s with no lift, just cut out bushwacker finder flares.
I have a set of 38s for it. Just need another set of 20s.
Good video looked like real extreme terrain
Yeah lots of nice trails in that area.
Great video bud keep it up
Thanks!
good stuff as always, sorry we missed it this year, the liberty brigade will attend next year (assuming we haven't broken them all by then)
Thanks. And yes it has been a few years. We need to do some wheeling together!
Sooo many wronglers 😂
We had a few join. We always have a pretty equal amount of XJs and JKs. Some years more or less a few.
th-cam.com/video/tyYjwBI6_gU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uA5v8248UyoKmEwG
Last year the XJs definitely outnumbered them.
Come for the Cherokee’s, leave because the wranglers
@@chickennugget2931watch the above video for more XJs lol👆🏻
What grille is that?
Factory with some stainless inserts. Not sure brand. It came with the suburban when I bought it.
Or are you talking about the light strip between hood and grill?
The light strip where did you get that? Love it
@ TikTok shop find
Ok I’ll check thanks
That is looking great. I love it that the bed is close to the ground. And leaves a lot of headroom above.
@@JavierBonillaC Thanks! That’s exactly why I set it up like that. I wanted to be able to setup in bed.
Great Job brother
Heck yeah 🔥🔥🔥
I swear that suburban parked in the d&w parking lot all the time
I live in Petoskey. But I don’t go to D&W much. But I know a girl does have a white 1500 suburban on a 6” lift. And that is parked in D&W parking often.
I've got to do the same thing. Also following this rust repair series. th-cam.com/video/pZBnGI_7SNE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZeJ0wz-AZpEBTide I'm always looking for ideas on how to accomplish something. Thanks for posting. Looking forward to the next episode.
Yep I always watch a bunch of videos before I dig in to a project also. Thanks for watching!
Did you build the cabinet?
Yes. It’s actually built out of my older entertainment center lol.
You need to remove the residual pressure check valve in the brake master cylinder when you do this conversion or your rear brakes will always drag. Also you might need a proportioning valve to make the brakes work correctly.
I just did the ZJ proportioning valve spring swap. Seems to be working good.
@@northernmichiganoverland That should help but you still need to make sure that residual pressure check valve is removed. It is very easy to take out. Pretty sure there must be some videos.
Nice to see these being turned into even more capable rigs.
It’s my camper/tow rig for now. But it will be getting a ford super duty Dana 60 solid axle swap up front. But still in parts collection phase of that.
Loved the vid! All that black sand right in front of u! Grab a gold pan man!! 🤩 lol
Thanks. Unfortunately it’s Michigan no gold to be found. Only yopper lights lol.
@ grab a pan. There’s flour gold in that black sand. Minnesota, Wisconsin and Michigan all have it on Lake Superior! Not many know but it’s true! All the glaciers from millions of years ago washed all the Canadian gold down! Now it’s pretty evenly spread across the land as flour gold. You don’t make a living off of it but it’s a fun hobby!
Interesting! Didn’t know that.
@ I have a small channel myself and have a video coming out tomorrow morning as my first gold panning video on Lake Superior. I actually found some specs…nothing worth a damn but it’s fun to see if you can grab a pan and find some specs! lol
Where were you at in the UP? I used to swim in Lake Superior in the Sault all the time
On the east side of the UP.
thanks for the video, just a question how you resolve de hand breake (parking breakes)
www.cherokeeforum.com/f67/rear-disc-brake-conversion-parking-brake-cable-question-246771/
Strong work!
Thanks.
This is awesome. All that stuff I tlked about wanting to do some overnight camping and I never did. I was just crazy busy.
@primealmightkindred Thanks. It’s a blast! Lol
12:25 - I use a m12 right angle die grinder with Amazon 'paint stripping pads'. Looks like the same material. Was $15 for like 100 or the discs.
I used to use a flap disc on my grinder. This is soooooo much faster lol.
Wear your glasses! And liked the 50 cent part 😀
Dude this is so sick!! We were just talking about how we wanted to build our own camper trailer. Except I'm not smart enough nor do I know how to weld 🤣🤣 Glad your eyeballs are ok! That must have been rough man.
Thanks man! Yeah it definitely could have been worse!
Best way to learn is to do. Pick a project, buy some steel and just send it.
How did you bend the hard brake lines? Did you remove them completely from the Jeep or is there a way to do it without removing and also crimping the lines? Great video.
Hard line bending tool. You can get them at parts store. And thanks!
Where was this done?
Cross village area to Pellston area. This year we are doing it in the Mesick area.
Сразу подписка! Suburban 👍💪❤️
What muffler is that ?
Flowmaster original 40 series
Wow you guys ahve some wicked rigs over there!, love your little fold down table you made!
Yes we do. Thanks!
This is seriously so cool!
@@imagreenfish1 Thanks. Look out for an updated walk around after the remodel.
Good straight forward video thanks!
@@markgrz7076 your welcome 👍🏻
The Barn Door setup is perfection! 🤘
@@AdventuresOfRogersAndHenderson the barn doors was a selling point for me on this suburban. Because I had this design in mind.
can this mod will wotk on my 87 XJ ?
@@serchmarc only if it has the 8.25 rear end. As far as I know will not work on the Dana 35.
@@northernmichiganoverland YEAH I VE JUST REALISED THAT,,
What a great TurnKey setup, really the best one I've seen for solo. Thanks for sharing, you gave me some great ideas.
Thanks! And you’re welcome. I watched lots of van builds and suv builds on TH-cam before I built mine out. So figured why not upload a walk around. So maybe could help someone else out in planning their build.
You didn't mention switching out the proportioning valve on the brake block.
I actually haven’t yet. And it’s actually working out pretty well with out doing the ZJ proportioning valve spring swap.
Super nice love it!!!! I have the same suburban and I love to see what can be done to it
Thanks! They are very good rigs for camping and traveling out of.
Which baking plate did you use?
Jeep liberty. It’s all jeep liberty parts. Except the hoses those are off a Jeep ZJ.
That looks awesome.
Thanks
How about hooking up your emergency breaks while your at it.
Unfortunately list that footage. GoPro life 🤦🏼♂️
Just gonna rust like crazy waste of money
Not if don’t drive it in the salt. It’s rust free. I brought it up from down south.
Now I want to convert the Grand Caravan I have at home that I was going to give my daughter. She doesn't want to drive anyway. 😂
Do it! It’s a fun project!
Hamburger helper… my dog and I just had some, bachelor food, lol
Quick and easy lol
heck yeah
Thanks
Nice! I hope you have some fun overlanding trips with the Burb! I have a 02 Suburban Z71 One day I hope to do some fun overlanding in it.
Thanks! And definitely will! Good luck with your build.
Awesome video. Do you really have to replace the studs for the backing plate? Seems like the new bolts you got are a little long while the XJ studs seem like they wouldve fit.
Thanks. Yes the xj ones are to short. You can use the stock liberty ones though. For me the bolts ended being easier to track down in the small town I live in.
That line touching the plate for the u bolts feels sketchy
If you look closely. It is not actually touching the y bolt plate.
I like ur set up
Thanks. I just did a remodel on it. Keep an eye out for an updated walk around coming soon.
@@northernmichiganoverland i sure will
@@mattvangundy not sure if you seen it yet but remodel video is up. th-cam.com/video/CnuAsNqyLCI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oqUvEHqkb0Pf58fm
This happened to me yesterday how much would a shop charge you think?? You aren't in utah are you
Probably not gonna be cheap at a shop. Nope I’m in Michigan unfortunately. Check out the brown dog motor mounts. They have ones that use other holes in the block. That’s what I was going to do if couldn’t get the broken bolts out.
Will this work on a Dana 44?
im curious about this too
No it will not unfortunately.
Locktite on those backing plate bolts... no?? Or are those locking nuts?
If I remember correctly I used nylon lock nuts.
