IG/TIKTOK: Tom's Refurb
In this video, we thoroughly enjoy a $280 1996 Jeep Cherokee. We strip it, road trip it, go off roading, and perform some terribly abusive experiments. This was some of the most fun we've had with a vehicle in a long ass time... You need to watch the whole thing.
Before you get upset- the frame and floors of the Jeep were rusted far beyond repair. It was only worth its weight in parts.
ALL ACTION FILMED IN MEXICO AND ON CLOSED COURSES! Video has been edited with CGI to look like different surroundings. We are trained professionals, do not attempt anything that we do.
Thanks Matt, Linton, Blake, and Shaun for helping!
Tom not going to lie, I got my grandma to watch your videos and now shes literally watching them nonstop. i thank you tom because your videos entertain her so much that she doesnt want to sleep all day and be lazy now because of you shes up, fully active having the best time of her life. thank you tom, thank you.
If this is a true story, than I'm glad to hear that she's doing better now.
@@cody39yrs my grandmas gonna be 69 this year, she had a fastback mustang in her late 20s, she had a 67 fastback mustang and she absolutely loved that car, showed her toms videos and she fell in love instantly because her mustang used to look like his but instead of blue it was black, she had a big ass cam in the car, not hater pipes but she had blaster pipes, cool wheels and thats all i know about the car, she misses that car everyday and toms car reminds her of it. now one thing i will say is she hasnt seen that car for the past 40 years since the 1980s and she admires how toms attitude is and how he cuts straight to the chase on his shit and to her hes funny as all get out, her favorite video made by him is the whole video of tom and his dad restoring his mustang and driving it to prom then doing a burnout on graduation etc, all i can really say is this is a very true story.
@@ZupGarageJPN W grandma
That’s so awesome man! I’m really glad she enjoys the videos. What’s her name?
@@TOMSREFURB her names patricia. shes a very sweet lady
Those old Jeeps are amazing. The older models like this with that almost indestructible engine were built to be reliable, much different than today.
As an xj owner this is probably one of my favorite videos so far
agreed lmao
Same lol
I agree
As a Canadian xj owner this hurt bc mines rotted and I would have paid good money for thoes doors 😅
I own a 96 ZJ with the Inline 6 and 4 speed auto and that wonderful 4x4 let me tell you they run forever, tear it up put some water in her, just fill the oil up and she'll just keep going love them so much.
i’ve already watched this 47 times and can confirm that this is a certified tom refurb classic
Ye
Ye
13:56 “Tom has no idea how to off road”
Cuts to Tom cackling and having the most fun of his life
I’d say he knows how to off road
While the "real" mudders sit in their lifted 100k truck in the AC. Sendin it in the mud is what i call the purest form of mudding.
The content on this channel is by far too good. Keep it up Tom
During "Cash for clunkers", we were required to seize the engines of those trade-ins. The Jeep 4.0 and a Ford 351 Windsor were the two motors that went over an hour before locking up. No oil, water and some stuff called liquid glass inside the engine. Over An Hour. I am not surprised it started after the park trip 👍
bet that was a fun job
4.0s are amazing
@@canneng6520 I have always had good luck with them.
Why kill the engine though?
Dude cash for clunkers was the worst thing that has ever happened to car sales in the history of cars
As an 2000 XJ owner myself, love to see this car LITERALLY being pushed to its limits 😂
I absolutely approve of this mischievous behavior. Carry on and make us delinquents proud Tom.
Them 4.0s in them xjs always impressed the shit out of me since they came out even with bigger tires and a lift they fly
I heard they're basically modernized Chevy 250 L6 engines. They're bullets.
@@Toxic2T isnt it an amc motor? cause i know amc owned jeep in the past and i know that some were availible with a 5.0 amc v8
@@quartzcyanis it is an AMC motor, the XJ's didn't have them but I believe other jeeps did have the 5.0
@@crowbarz they were in the XJ's i have seen a few they are quite rare to find from factory
This channel is becoming one of the greats in term of vehicle channels
This is my exact model jeep thank you for showing me how much it can take your a real scientist, I'm supprised the temp gauge actually worked properly
TOMMY FRICK YEAH! Love the consistency, love the content. You’re doing gods work 🙏🏻
I bought a $600 5 speed s10 blazer with my brother. We registered it and insured it. I daily drive it to work and do burnouts and donuts going there. It's like a 40 minute drive. Then on weekends we jump it and take it down trails like what you did. It's rly fun and the clutch is a champ. The Blazer was cheap cuz the frame is completely rusted out. But it's safe enough for me. Just don't crash
I have a 98, and it's durable as hell. 237k miles running strong.
That's what we do in Alaska when bored!👍🏼
This guy has got to be the most entertaining thing on youtube
thank god, i’ve been rewatching his videos like 18 times over waiting on another masterpiece.
It’s honestly impressive that it survived so much
As a first introduction to this channel, and someone who doesn’t like Jeeps at all: I need more of these videos AND POSSIBLY also a dirt cheap Jeep I can beat on for my 2 mile commute…
Woke up on a Saturday, no plans.
And Tom bought a jeep xj
Life is good
that thing went out like a champ, those 4.0 i6 are incredible
I was gonna say, it’s actually fairly simple to take the rear quarter glass out but I see you had other plans at 3:47 😂
" And safety is my top priority" Annnnd Tom looks like he is heading to the winter special Olympics lol. This should be fun
Waking up to one of your videos is the best feeling, I’ve always wanted to do exactly that in a cheap jeep I’m glad you were able to make some amazing content with that…,and still profit😂
Tom: the temp is getting pretty hot! Continues to do burnouts lmao 😂😂
This is the best Tom's Refurb yet....legit....that hood/helmet ornament had me CRYLAUGHING
Hey @tomsrefurb we got these scammer asswipes trying this shit again....how can you eradicate these scumsicles from your page?
I feel like the "my son" meme came from retro rick, but maybe I watch too many TH-cam videos 😅😅😂
this video radiates me n the boys energy in the best ways
I should be working on my truck but im literally just sitting here dying laughing watching this shit 😂😂 happy Saturday
This just makes me want a Cherokee even more
The good ole 4.0 inline 6 is arguably one of the strongest motors out there. They just keep on goin!
Just saw one yt shorts of u and I knew i would love this channel. and watching this video proves it YOU ARE AN AMAZING TH-camR
Damn. Great stuff. Reminds me of early days of Whistlin Diesel. So in two years you'll probably have a few R33's too.
I love the influence whistling diesel has because now there’s MORE OF THIS AWESOME STUFF
this one kinda hurt me but amazing content as always, tom
i think someone deserves a collaboration with a slightly larger channel because these videos are way too funny and you deserve alot more followers with the attitude you have......
I seen a clip of this on TikTok and had to watch the whole thing I haven't been disappointed 😂
This made my day, truly! The funniest thing I have watched in months❤😆
"Looking good your looking realllll good" love infrabren🤣🤣
Love you guys, these videos remind me of life OD before the money and whislen diesel before the money.
by far some of the best content on youtube
man there really aren't enough people treating cars like this
I’m surprised you don’t have more subscribers
Tom is just built different. Keep it up bro
You're on your way broski. Your channel is absolutely my new favorite to watch. Period
This is halarious I have not laughed so hard in a while and I made money off of it after u beat tf out of it 😂
Saw a Tom's Refurb Nova on main this morning walking home from class. Looked great!
Awesome seeing the progression of the channel. Same great content now just a little more polished dare I say.
I didn't know whistlin diesel had a brother 😆😆😆💀💀💀
I owned two 88 wagoneer limiteds and an 89 Cherokee. They will legit keep going, with or without tires, on the spindles of necessary
I cant wait for the day this man hits 1 million+ subscribers
The fact that a $300 dollar jeep took that much Tom I mean abuse is absolutely dumbfounding 😜 I'm guessing it needed a head gasket to begin with but who cares as long as you can beat the crap out of it off road with a rubber weenie on the hood 😂 good one Bud.
This was hilarious. Keep up the great work, Tom.
Les goo, ain't even watched it yet and I know it's gonna very good
280$ jeep, sells for 300$ I’m dead 💀💀😂😂
This dude reminds me of whistling diesel and I love it
As a cherokee owner noted if hit big hole rear sway bar goes through tire.. time to remove the rear sway 😴
love getting stoned and seeing that tom uploaded. formula for a great night
how does my man not have 1 mil subs yet
My Jeep XJ was at 350*pulling 80mph up a freeway hill. 6:35 (with radiator fluid that had not been changed for 200,000 miles)
Certified Tom Classic
15:00 "Momma said i could be anything when i grow up , so i decided to become a unicorn" !
This is why jeeps are amazing. They never give up 😂😂
I can’t believe you sold it for $20 more than you bought it for after beating the absolute shit out of it 😂💀
I really don't understand how you don't have more subscribers it's a travesty 😢 Tom's the 🐐
it’s always a great friggin day when tommy boy uploads 🤝
Another banger from the boy Tom
My neighbors dad had a Cherokee...it caught on fire driving down the highway. Great car!
This reminds me of a whistling diesel video but actually funny hell yeah keep this shit comin
Love the intro, great content man!!
You make me want to work on my own car… still going to procrastinate it and watch your amazing videos 😂
Lol sometimes I wish I could destroy my belongings and call it fixing
The addition of the unicorn horn made the entire video worth it.
this is my new favorite yt channel
Tom - ‘Best damn automotive content on TH-cam’
Me ‘yes’
Someone could have daily’d that for 2+ years Man.. 😊
Tom your videos are so good and entertaining!
If you was trying to actually break the transfer case you should have done what I call a "No Mercy Reversie". You go about 50 in reverse pedal to the floor then slam it into drive. I've done this myself and it does a wicked burnout or two before you grenade the transmission.🤣
i think this is the second video ive seen by you this is dope lmao keep it up i dont think ive been entertained like this for a long time
That dang Jeep in line 6 hurt some feelings back in the day. Don't let it fool ya. Keep videos coming brother. GaMike
your're on par with whistlindiesel, keep it up, ily
"It stopped running. Why?" Got me cracking up
3:14 😂😂😂 I needed some jeep thrashing this AM
Man the Cherokee xj is unbreakable
This guy is like a mini whistling diesel
bro made profit LMFAO!!! this guy is so underrated
Whistlin diesels lost son in full effect 😂
Tom reminds me of Gus & Sven Johnson mixed with Dizzy Dyl 😂
5:56 when u get a new car and start noticing all the other people that drive the same car
That last sentence was the best thing ever 😂😂
Bro no way you’re at the C&D canal 🤣. That place used to be so much more fun than it is now. Trails EVERYWHERE
I can't believe it kept going after all that! Hilarious video
Pretty sure Tom might be a slightly related to whistlin diesel
Ole Tom Cat you hooligan
I am envious of your tool collection
I can confirm that after watching toms refurb I totaled my jeep
Dude! We off-road at the same totally legal off-road park. I was just at the canal and must’ve just missed you because I remember thinking “who was doing so many donuts in this grass?” Never would’ve thought it was Toms refurb himself! Love the videos man keep it up!
I live in north east where is this legal offroad park located?
We must protect Tom at all costs.
There's a reason Neutral Drop loves thèse, they're performas through and through.
LMFAO!!!🤣 Great work as always and never disappointed with your content. Your videos ALWAYS make me smile and laugh my ass off.
Keep up the great work and content. This channel is going to be huge. Thanks for the laughs. 🙂
