Man watching Chris and bec takes me back to when I was a kid watching Ian and jessi on xtreme 4x4 on Saturday mornings! Love love love the shop vids!
R.I.P.Jessi.
yea, it really does.
Man what a throw back. I still find full episodes on TH-cam every now and then
Dude... I wasn't a kid watching them, but these two definitely give Ian and Jessi vibes.
The good ol days unfortunate to hear jessi passed on
You guys (and gals) do enough axle work, you should consider getting an induction heater for your axle tubes. Just a thought. God bless and stay well.
HI I JUST WANT TO SAY THAT I ENJOY YOU GUYS A BUNCH YOU ARE SO GOOD AT WHAT YOU DO , LOVE YOU ❤️ PLEASE KEEP DOING IT. SHE IS GREAT AT WELDING .
Chris and Bec make a great team. Chris skill set is of of the GOAT’s. He can do it all! Such a great team Kevin & Brit. Chris & Bec!
Dang your a genius dude by making things look so easy. Your eyeometer is the bomb patent it! Great viewing
Just wanted to say I was having a stressful day in this crazy world, in these crazy times, you two have such a fun-loving peaceful side that took all the stress away, thank you!
Videos like this are so enjoyable to watch. Unfortunately they always remind me of how long it takes and how many times I screw up projects that better fabricators consider simple tasks. Props to all you geniuses. I respect your talent!
Chris you and Bec are building one bank vault tuff jeep. Can't wait until the next video.
Dang…artist, creator, mechanic…you two are special. A blast to watch!
Bec looks like a Marvel Super Hero! Skills of welding and building her Jeep
This is going to be a kick ass LJ, seems like you're really going through every detail.
Bec and Chris make a Great Team!
They can work on my XJ whenever I can Afford it!🤔
I like this half of Lite Bright Nation.
Chris & Bec Cutting and Welding Together Again! Y'all fabricate that stuff like I used to do with plastic model kits. Your knowledge and skills are amazing, and fun to watch. That's a big stretch! Over-piping that axle = Mind Blown! LiteBriteNationExtendsTheLOutOfTheLJ!
I had a best friend who could do anything..a jack of all trades...reminds me of Chris...same kickass fun attitude and willing to help those who'd help themselves and not expect others to do everything... He moved to Florida a few years ago...miss that dude... They're all very lucky they have a Chris!
I think it’s safe to assume that y’all have been trained in the metallurgic arts.
I bought the same front axle but have a Dana 80 rear. I’ve decided I’m going to cut up the 80 and make it a front axle. Im glad y’all made this video because now I know how I can use this dodge Dana 60 on my 07 Silverado.
The build is coming along! Don’t worry Chris, you really never are filming. 😀😜😀😜
Girl,you are so ripped!! And u kick ass at metal work!! So much talent in that shop!!! Thanks for teaching us these skills and showing us how u fabricated things. Take care guys can't wait for next video. Devo
Looks great. I recently did an LS swap on my 1 ton LJ and after wheeling it a couple times I found my front dif was hitting the steering pump/alternator bracket. When cycling the suspension there was no contact, but we made the mistake of not resting the jeep at flat full bump. Make sure you check that clearance at full bump sitting flat. I ended up breaking the bottom connection of bracket off when hitting a dip at sand hollow. I went home and welded up a brace to support the now perfectly "trimmed" bracket.
Look forward to Becs LJ build every week so make sure that Bronco knows the LJ has priority on that lift!
CAD design has helped builders for ages. Long Live Cardboard!!
Damn... Now thats fabracating! I need Chris and Bec doing some work on my Jeep!
One tip dry ice the axel tube wile heating the outside tube they will slide in like butter, been useing this technique for 35 years of heavy maintenance work, we machine our stuff to 1 thousand fit, it will not come apart, even used is steam heated shaft’s,much easier and faster,same process works for hers and shafts, like the bearings your going to have to install on your axels/ lockers good luck on your builds, also I would have used porta band saw or bench saw to cut tube much cleaner,less prep to assemble
Love watching both of you work on her Jeep and build it from the ground up. Thanks. Until next time.... Wrench safe.
Chris and Beck, love you two. Fantastic teamwork.
you guys should get a portaband. they make table top models very reasonably priced. its a must have for any garage IMO.
really enjoy guys working together. This brings a much-needed change to the channel
Thanks for another great video. I’ve daily driven my LJ for 10 years now, and have done a regear, etc, but the work never ends, lol. The ideas and things you’re doing in this build is fantastic. Using the dodge front axle is excellent. Keep up the great work! LJ Nation!
Holy fitness babe !!!! More leg shots please !!!
Chris, great fabrication skills. Bec fabulous welding skills!!!!
8:35 i was also yelling "YES" Chris!You both are a great team at building!
Love Cardboard Aided Design.
Men o Men,I love you guys Wrenching together. YOU guys Rock. 🪨
Build is going nicely. Thumbs up. 👍🏻 plus I know why Chris looks so damned familiar when he started building on Lite Brite… I used to watch West Coast Customs so when a few videos back that was mentioned the 💡 came on.
Talk about a master mechanic. Amazing and fun to watch 👍
That's hardcore Chris. Congrats on showing something I've never seen on YT before, deleting the disconnect and sleaving that axle. Impressive. Also, if you ever have to replace that AC compressor, you have to pull the engine it looks like. Better put in a good one!
That was a TON of fun! lol. It's looking great! Can't wait to see it crawl.
Looking great Chris and Bec of course the final test is after your done building is to take it on its test drive! Happy Trails to all of you!
9:27 - Serious sized steering ram. Extra shear avoidance bracing… Bring on the rock trails. 👍
Beck loves that plasma cutter
That looks like a very expensive CAD program with all types of bells ‘n whistles … 👍🏻
And he knows how to operate it so well just whips that stuff out
Love you guys! So much talent going on. Oh and Bec in a Compression shirt, looking beast mode is 🔥. Much love ❤️ and respect.
Awesomeness...cant get enough of the shop videos...Beck and Chris both killing it...tha KS for bringing everyone along on the process of the LJ.......egarly awaiting your next video....Safe travels
The LJ is by far my favorite build on the channel. Great job!
Chris is amazing. He is all solution.
I love you guy’s build! It makes me want a jeep!!!! ❤
Dig these vids. Chris is so talented and Beck is adorable.
This LJ is going to be a beast on the trail.
Will give the step child a run for its money lol!!
Chris...bro...just wow! 🤯 You are skilled my friend. I can't wait for this series continues. If you can ever make a vid explaining how you pieced everything together at the end of the build it will be something I would replay just to understand how.
Been watching this channel for a couple years....other than the KOH stuff, this is my favorite video series! What a great team!!!!!
Total fan boy when i saw the whole lite brite crew yesterday. Love the content
Chris, you are the fucking man when it comes to fab work.
Wow. Didn’t know all this was happening. Exciting!
Love watching a genius work! Good stuff!
I cant wait!!! this has got me on the edge of my seat.... lol. love everything Chris and Bec....
That was amazing! Fitting those tubes without a big lathe… I’m so impressed!!!
Still loving the shop videos ❤❤💯🤙
You guys are doing a awsome job on that jeep... keep the videos coming...
Chris wow man you make all this look so easy, your temperament is second to none !!
Half the time I have no idea what you guys are talking about, but I'm learning and I love it.
Are u folks crazy? Sure the plasma cut ✂️ that like butter
Love the auto cad.
Love the shop/build videos!!
Gets me all jazzed up to go work on my rig! Great stuff guys. Keep ‘em coming.
I Love the Chris and Bec mechanical videos! What a Damn smart move by Jelly and its owners
The LJ is going to be a beast when it's done. Love watching the build though. Lots of cool tips and ideas.
Chris’s fab skills are awesome to watch. Just going to open my cad file lol
Great video!
Love watching you guys in the shop.
You must have some decent processing power to display your CAD designs so fluidly at such high resolution. Your 3d printer produces surprisingly strong, heavy and durable engine mounts. Just amazing.😆
Could have used a lathe for them tubes. Ask Santa for a lathe. Nice work!!
Lite Brite Garage thank you for your time.
This build series is great. Lottery isn't a ticket anymore. It is you two working on my truck making it all it can and should be. Thanks for the hours of entertainment. I really appreciate it.
Amazing work as always.
You guys make a great team…. The axles are KILLL’R…
Man, this is some heavy duty stuff you guys are doing. Very impressive.👍
Loving all the build videos especially the Lj build,, scrambler's and Lj's are my 2 favorite jeeps! Thanks for the content as always 😉
Great work!! I enjoyed each min.
Excellent job on the ALX Tube’s
that is look so cool. can't wait to see it on the trails. God Bless.
Love the cad Chris uses 😁
Thanks for explaining your sign Bec, figured you was esplainin that it was big mt box!!!!
BTW, this custom stuff seems to come so natural to you now Chris, your ability to draw it in the air, and see it in your eyes, before its even made is fantastic. I'd like to be he man with the pipe, in your shop!!
I love you guys! and always hate to see your videos end. Give us more more more please!
CP your skill sets are impressive.
This project shows raw talent, experience and imagination orchestrated into mechanical motivational `art.
Damn u better not mess up she’s gonna make it rite quick.
Stay on the mountain Bec! No Crashing!
You had me a 1tons
Chris & Beck, Lite Brite Nation is lucky to have you two; I sure hope there paying you two 200k a year, Really like your video's keep them coming
Good to see my favorite Duo , see ya on the next one
Can’t wait to see y’all do the roll cage and make it work with the hard top
That's pretty bad ass.
Looking forward too much more fun stuff can’t wait 👌👍
I can't wait to see the next video. High quality works and complicity of both of you is really funny to watch. I'm looking forward when the LJ is finished. Herve from France.
Yes! More episodes!!
A cutting disc ends up being quicker than a plasma torch.
Very likely a "saw-all" or portable band saw is quicker too.
Awesome video!
So jealous! Love the build so far. Would love to do that to my 05 LJ. Keep up the great work!
If you don't want to break the front axle, you could have gone with a Dana Super 70 from a GM Topkick for the front. You probably wouldn't need to do anything with it to make it work.
But since that is too late for that, you really should look into bearing girdles. These put bolts through the cover to stabilize the bearing so they don't spread under torque. You can review Carl Jantz's information on that. I did this for the Dana 70 used in my front wheel drive motorhome after installing the 502 in it.
I love Bec. 😁
I am so jealous of this build and excited. Keep them coming!!
