    This week i answer questions about what vehicle is the best "base" vehicle to start with to build a project. Should you build your own driveshafts, why or why not. And if I had to choose between Daves mazGrande or 4xFreds Clampy what truck would I want?

    Two things. First off Hell yes for Fred, Dave , and yourself. Secondly the reference as to what are you working on. Totally agree it would be enjoyable to see what others are working on and what advice you would give them on it.

    @timothyamerman6521 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    100% you should collab with Fred and Dave on a trail ride, that would be awesome! Make it an annual series with different rigs. Mini trucks first, then full size (lockjaw/mom’s spaghetti/something from Fred’s yard), then 2 door jeeps (tube sock or summercamp/butter jeep/goat built).

    • @timothyamerman6521

    My channel is still too small to mention but I strongly think "Make It Kustom " is a fantastic down to earth metal fab channel for fans here and yourself Ian to watch. Very talented young fabricator that will learn with you in his videos when he doesn't know. And he is Canadian to bout.

    • @rcmike09
      @rcmike09 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I just went thru the process of deciding whether to build my own driveshafts for my ‘77 Wagoneer. After watching videos of the build process by all of the professional companies I realized I really was going to be in over my head and bought one from Tom Woods

    You know, I always start by clicking the "thumbs up" button before I click the start button on your videos, just in case I forget at the end. And I must admit, I never regretted it. Always loved your simple and direct approach. Thanks for all the hard work you do to keep this channel going! Been following you since your FourWheeler days. G'day, eh! From Gatineau Qc.

    Hopefully this question hasn't been asked before? I often read the comments. More often than I care to admit, I see criticism and skepticism on how someone else would build your rig(s).
    My question is, "how do you deal with those people; have you learned to bite your lip or disregard those type of comments?"
    I feel like that's the dark side of TH-cam land that content creators don't talk about. Thanks in advance.

    One question for you, when you were done with extreme 4x4 did you ever consider coming back to canada to or do you feel like where you are is now "home"

      Great question....really with my Son heading off to college when i was "retired" by my former prod company it was no question we were staying here.....we occasionally talk about heading back...but not sure where we would go TBH....in the future I see us living in both countries during different parts of the year

  • @tatewatson6362
    @tatewatson6362 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Ian, I have a couple questions for you! First I want to say I’ve been a fan for a long time and I love your channel
    Questions:
    1: what determines 3 or 4 link in the front of a rig? Positives and negatives on both
    2: I’ve never set up links before, what should I invest more time/money into to be set up for the long term?
    3: what should I look for in a shock package for rock crawling and mild bombing through the local dunes?

    FMJeeping is worth a look. I don't know him but he built a pretty cool xj but, what really makes it impressive is he did it in a one car garage. I'd throw my own hat in the ring but I don't have good or much content yet.

  • @garywilliams7484
    @garywilliams7484 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Question for you about Axles. Why don’t we see more 9” axles under Jeeps. I see a lot of people going to Dana 60 and 14 bolt. Seems to me like more people would use 9” because of the weight savings.
