Jeep XJ Build - We Had a Little Fun and Turned A Wrench into an Exhaust Hanger
มุมมอง 2422 หลายเดือนก่อน
#offroad #jeep #jeepxj #rockcrawling #diy #fatherson #fabrication #jeeplife #harborfreighttools The Sandbox had a terrible exhaust rattle because of a rusted out hanger so we fabricated a custom exhaust hanger from an old wrench. Why? Because we needed an excuse to practice welding and use our new bandsaw from Harbor Freight. Subscribe to catch the latest from Sandbox Adventures: th-cam.com/cha...

Jeep Cherokee XJ Starter Troubleshooting & Replacement

After installing our new rear bumper, our Jeep Cherokee XJ wouldn't start!

    how did you repair the wire after stabbing it

    • @sandbox_adventures
      @sandbox_adventures 9 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      The multi meter prong should be able to get a reading without actually puncturing the protective wire coating. But if it did, I’d use some electrical tape to cover it. If the wire somehow got really damage (very unlikely really), I’d splice it with a solder stick connection.

    Well, I'm a couple of days late getting to see your video, but as they say, better late than never. I really like the new jack, I would love to have one myself. You guys are ready for NASCR now. Been thinking about selling my old 88 XJ but haven't made up my mind. Don't get to ride it much these days and I hate to see it setting. Mom says don't get rid of it, so who knows. Y'all take care in this heat and next time you go on the trail think about this old man Preston and have fun!

    Thank you for sharing the math on how much the stiffeners add to the frame. Curious as to how much variation that end result has based on how/where the stiffeners attach. Does that make much if any difference?

    • @sandbox_adventures
      @sandbox_adventures 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the question, it’s a good one. And yes, it does make a difference where you add the stiffeners. Max deflection is typically near the center between your supports so that would be the ideal location for stiffeners but variation in your stiffness and where the load is applied (think rock crawler twisting and flexing and changing angles) can shift that max deflection around a lot. When we add our mid frame stiffeners, I think I might quickly cover how much welding is really needed.

      Can’t say for sure if I could tell the difference when we hit the trail later that day, but then again we still need to do the mid and front stiffeners and the trail was pretty mild without too much flexing. Preston said he could tell lol
