Great work here. Well shot, occasionally *beautifully* shot, editing and pace were perfect, well mixed. How does this only have 1k views? I also really appreciated all the work you didn't show. I've seen that stuff a hundred times already anyway; you focused on what makes this project unique.
Wish I could like this comment twice haha! Thank you very much for the kind words. More projects and purchases on the way, as well as actually putting the Jeep to use out of the garage haha
Met you at Walmart today. This Jeep is really cool. I’m even more impressed after watching this video. Very well made video and it shows that a lot of hard work went into this build. I appreciate this even more after spending the last 3 evenings replacing the cv axles and ball joints on my rusty CRV. That’s nothing compared to this beast. Great job man.
It turned out great! I'm from Croatia and the problem here is to get good used parts and we pay double for everything from the States because of shipping and taxes.
Very nice job. I have many of those same upgrades for my 94 XJ. The flat flares you used, did they require any cutting of the body? All of the flat flares I've found require cutting the body. I don't want to cut my body. But I like the look of the flat flares. I was planning to do them in alum at some point, but I no longer have access to fab equipment. Thanks for you time and again, very nice work. BTW, if the flares you used didn't require cutting the body, could you forward me the part number and MFG. Thanks and God bless.
Can you break down the parts list for doing the rear disk conversion with Liberty parts? Is that all that was? Do people swap in explorer 8.8.s if they don’t do this for rear disks? Sick video..
@@oddfoxchassis786 hey man! There are a bunch of really great in depth videos on TH-cam for doing the disc brake swap. I highly recommend watching them if you’re considering it. They go through all of the parts and stuff. Happy to answer any questions tho on specific parts or anything else
How did you buy that jeep? Also any good places to look for a cheap jeep that doesn't have a ton of rust in MN? I love mine and I've done a ton of maintenance to it as my daily but the rust is getting too bad, so you winter beater project is of great interest to me!
@@thephoenix5266 my stroker I bought completely stock from a state that doesn’t use road salt and is rust free, that would be my suggestion if you’re looking for something clean. Rust is truly the only thing that will kill these jeeps, everything else is fixable. I’ll definitely put together a little walkthrough on my beater in the next month or two as I’ll be taking it out of storage and getting it ready for use again. Let me know if you have any other questions!
@@kvtnink what's your preffed method for shopping for sight unseen out of state Cherokees? Yes I did everything else on mine but it feels dumb to put money into it when the rocker panels rusted completely away 5 years ago 😂
@@thephoenix5266 honestly if it’s just the rockers, you could cut out the old ones, get some 2x6 steel and weld them in place and they look pretty good. Floor pans can be replaced too, it’s just tough once the unibody starts corroding. If you’re in the twin cities area and need a recco for a welder let me know! Also buying sight unseen is definitely a gamble. If you watch the video where I picked this jeep up sight unseen you’ll see that it didn’t quite go as expected lol.
@@Dolphingirl2013 I would have loved to put lockers in the front and a limited slip in the rear axle while I had both of them out of the Jeep. Since I wasn’t completely sure of the condition of the axles I bought, I decided not to put that much work into them before I get some miles into them.
@@danhambrick6331 thanks a lot! Found it on fb marketplace after months of searching. Had to drive 400 miles round trip for it. They don’t make the Lund ones anymore, but you can find knockoff versions from Poland on eBay for a good price.
@@WAEMIDIV hahaha Waemid what an honor for you to make your way to my channel! I commented on your Reddit thread last summer, 3-01 and it does have torx bits. Btw I’m in the twin cities if you ever wanna link up and shoot something
Great work and great video. I'm just wondering why you went with such big wheels. I saw you looking for the disc brakes off of a Liberty, and I thought "Heck yeah, he's making sure he can fit 15s.". That XJ is just begging for more sidewall. 15s or 16s max would be ideal.
@@kvtnink I'll be danged. I watched it again, and I'll take your word for it. I think maybe the RWLs and the bolts on the bead rings give me a different perspective when the wheels are rotating. Well, I'll rescind my criticism then and just say that's a great bit of work and a gorgeous rig.
Now with changing the rear end that you put on there is it feasible to put your emergency brake cables on to that so you always have your emergency brake what would you have to change some sort of brackets for that
@@kjohns236 thanks a lot, I think it’s the perfect fitment. Sticking out just wide enough to look aggressive, but not obnoxious. These rims are the method 304s. It’s a 15x8 rim with 3.5” backspacing. So any wheel you find with that spec should have the same fitment
@@mcguireskaratetheartofsurv1942 if you have bigger than stock tires there is no real good place to store a spare without a swing out carrier. If you do it be sure to add the unibody tie ins to support the weight. Good luck on your project!

Do you guy’s prefer a bumper and a swing out tire carrier ? Does it add a lot of weight
