I'm glad I wasn't the only one that felt that way. Hopefully this was a one off but watching this after working afternoon shift and everyone is asleep I should have grabbed my earbuds.
@@randytravis3998 This one (obviously) Matt’s Off Road and the Derby Indiana TH-camrs (Dirt Perfect and Captain Kleeman) are the main ones. I’ve definitely seen your name around.
Love the content. Been following you since your start at Extreme 4x4 (or the original name of the show) and dig your builds! Glad to see you putting out TH-cam content again. Hey, if you didn’t know, your music is playing over you during your explanations when leading out.
Agreed. I actually stopped watching the video about a third of the way through because it was so irritating when he was talking with the crap music drowning him out.
I think it worth mentioning the factory’s vertical or horizontal letters, numbers that show the side bearing caps designation on a Dana. To not mix up left and right .I’ll have Tim’s for you :)
Sorry I don’t know why I haven’t looked up Ian on TH-cam. Sir my apologies again, you are by fair the best 4x4 show I watched for years, and I’m surprised out of the 10 years we have been annual WindRock members we haven’t run into each other. Safe travels and keep it low. Great job sir.
A thank you shout out to Ian and the camera crew. I and friend had a brief conversation at Hot Springs Offroad Park a couple weeks ago. Thanks for the information you shared with us.
Ian, I would love to see you use a 99-04 Dana 50 front axle to see what kind of abuse they can actually take vs what the internet says they can take especially since they can be found easier and purchased cheaper than the equivalent Dana 60
The zip ties holding the inner ring for the fuel unit is genius, you should do shorts on little hacks like that. Unconventional means to overcome little snags like that.
so glad i found your channel ian ! i grew up on sundays i think maybe saturdays watching xtream 4x4 with my dad, like 12 to 15 years ago lol! also less music in my opinion, like an asshole everyone has one .
Thanks for the info, and entertaining content. I have a question about the decision to run grizzly locker in the Colorado. I have a grizzly locker in the front of my truck and love it. It works absolutely flawlessly. I also have a spool in the back and want to switch to a locker. I was thinking of an arb or the zip locker from Yukon. My truck is driven 50/50 street and trail. What are the things that I should factor with these different options?? I would fun a grizzly in the rear too but there are a lot of people that tout the superiority of a selectable.
2 questions about the 9" I've always heard if you run a 9" in the front you need to use reverse cut gears, is this true? 2nd question, high pinion 9" require reverse cut gears, but what if you use it in the front?
Reverse cut gears are for when the pinion is above the centerline. So the gears you need are based on the housing you have. The drive side is longer so stronger. When axles go in the front the axle is run backwards to drive forward so you end up running on the reverse side of the gears. Engineers moved the pinion to the top and "reversed" the gear pattern so it will run on the drive/long side of the gear when driving forward in the front axle.
You take so much care in putting the axles together, why are you using a cheap Chinese dial indicator to check backlash? Get yourself a decent Starrett or Mitutoyo. So much more accurate and reliable.
1st half just the average pro awesome you always give 2nd half your cameras stopped focusing- the music got louder and louder and louder and louder, couldn't hear your voice audio during the mix... Still great content and appreciate your time.
I have a built 9 inch 3rd with a yoke and need to swap to a toyota flamge. Can i just remove the yoke and swap it or will that change pinion preload. Im not a gear guy. If anyone can help answer?
As long as you don't tighten the pinion nut too much to crush the sleeve anymore...I count the threads above the nut...and mark where it is on the pinion to make sure it goes back to the original spot
I I have watched from the Era of your career when you and Jessi Combs were together in the beginning shows of 4x4 (she was an amazing woman) I know this is an older video but, I was wondering (I'm new to the beefing up of rears or upgrading any of my vehicles) I would love to make my 2002 Chevy Express 1ton diesel cargo van into a 4x4 vehicle. I guess I'm asking is should I find a 3500 truck as a donor or pick and choose from different vehicles. Oh I drive this everyday so it's not going to be a show vehicle.
Little rough on the transition edits. But it's ok, you can come work on my Jeeps to make up for it lol. I have a TJ, DJ5, and CJ5. I will even give you the CJ5 for your efforts since its a bit far for gone for me to work on now.
I know this aired a while ago, but I'm playing catchup. I've noticed that you use air tools but, mostly I see you using that tried and true ratcheting wrench. Just wondering why you don't use battery operated tools...
Way Cool Ian, Iam sure you know, the sound & video kinda sucked! But, as always, the content was spot on! Great looking dog. Are you gonna be at SEMA this year?
Yeah I had a focus issue with the camera....it was fixed after this video...I was going to just Kill this vid....but I though what the heck...lets just push it out
Ian I had Once Upon a Time Spike TV got canceled because of Spike Lee I was just wondering if that was the truth or not I honestly watch the power block every weekend?
Hey dump the music! It’s poorly mixed - stepping on your talking - and is of a really annoying genre. You will save time in editing and end up with a better product. And, your autofocus is not (automatically focusing)😊
You know how say don't meet your heroes that's where I am in life I'm briefly met you in Las Vegas let's just say it wasn't a good experience enjoying what you doing I'm no longer doing good luck
Can we please get rid of the damn gimble or whatever you have for the Camera? Or maybe just a better quality one? It’s not only pretty annoying it sometimes literally give me motion sickness almost and I have to stop watching. It’s way to loose and always moving around. Just go back to flipping the camera around instead of trying to be all high tech please 🙏
I found myself adjusting the volume a lot on this one, music was quite a bit louder than your voice. Great work as always
Same.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one that felt that way. Hopefully this was a one off but watching this after working afternoon shift and everyone is asleep I should have grabbed my earbuds.
I agree. To hear what he's saying I needed to turn it up, then it was WAY too loud once the music started.
@@Crewsy what other channels do you watch ,, seems like your on a lot of the videos I watch ..

Rescue dogs are the best dogs! Love the bomber
I love that stand you hold the 9 Inch carrier with .
You can get it from Yukon
Absolutely love the content! Always great watching your videos. But that music was far too loud! Turn it down like 100%!
You're the best 4x4 host, but THAT MUSIC IS HORRID AND 200% TOO LOUD.
Agreed. I actually stopped watching the video about a third of the way through because it was so irritating when he was talking with the crap music drowning him out.
X2
Agreed. Please delete the music. Thanks
Little dramatic. Wasn't that bad
I barely noticed the music lol.

Thanks for the information you shared with us.
“Not going to run a pattern.” Bold move brother.
Love the going through a build videos.
Always great to have a shop dog l’m sure Zelda will be a fun addition to Big Tire Garage
Fun watching axles get built. What is your favorite wheelbase for trucks with 37-40 inch tires?
Thanks for sharing your time and knowledge with us I really enjoyed the video
I like your differential assembly jig.
Ian, I would love to see you use a 99-04 Dana 50 front axle to see what kind of abuse they can actually take vs what the internet says they can take especially since they can be found easier and purchased cheaper than the equivalent Dana 60

Ian if this is you please message me I belive you have been spoofed
Love the content. One thing maybe to look it to is when the music comes in the volume is a lot louder then what you are talking
I would love to see what you would do with a 1st gen Toyota 4runner
Very nice work sir
Another great video 👍👍
Outstanding tech and good video. The music was way too loud.
I have the same Yukon diff covers. I have had trouble with the bolts backing out. Have you seen this problem? I have used lock tite to correct this.
Love your channel, not the music on this one though. Too loud too.
It’s awesome that when you are busy your hair gets taller 😂😂😂😂
6:32 Cue the Vintage USA Up All Night 1980's Adult Content Music Soundtrack. Heck Ha!
good video
How'd you determine the pinion depth and where do you measure it from for the 9" fords?
so glad i found your channel ian ! i grew up on sundays i think maybe saturdays watching xtream 4x4 with my dad, like 12 to 15 years ago lol! also less music in my opinion, like an asshole everyone has one .
I have a question, when you clearance the nose bearing do you check ot with grease for clearance? In the ford nine inch member?
Great to see you building stuff again on TH-cam, what’s with the defender?
Do you ever use a case spreader on the Dana axles to get a greater carrier preload?
No...never had luck with case spreaders....I just keep the largest shim out until the end and use a shim driver to install it

A few videos back you mentioned doing a video about welding axles and keeping them from warping. Is that still in the works?
That’s a lot of axles in one day.
What torque spec do you use on the D60 and 14 bolt when using solid spacers instead of crush sleeves?
hello, i think u should send your cam to have a check for the issue of out of focus😅
Already did
2 questions about the 9"
I've always heard if you run a 9" in the front you need to use reverse cut gears, is this true?

FYI focus was off. But great info!
Do you have any info on the soft topper on the tacoma?
Its a soft topper
You take so much care in putting the axles together, why are you using a cheap Chinese dial indicator to check backlash? Get yourself a decent Starrett or Mitutoyo. So much more accurate and reliable.
I have had that dial indicator since I was 18 years old..it is due for replacement.....so maybe it is time to upgrade
Question, what kind of camera and steady mount do you use?
I didn't realize I clicked on a music video. I thought I was watching a cool axle vidjeo.
What's the story on that green defender? Is that the aluminum body that went onto a JKU frame?
Yes
Just turn down the music and wait until you're done talking to bring in the music. Otherwise spot on awesome!
Bad hair day Ian? Looks like you had a rough weekend! Lol.🤪
1st half just the average pro awesome you always give

Thanks for the response, new question. What if I add a pinion guard?
Most pinion guards mount above the pinion support so it wouldn't change anything

Good info good music, I still have reservation's about the hair. Maybe a bit shorter?
Zelda for the WIN! She looks like a real sweety.
The music bed lead-in is burying your vocal track at end of your work explanations.
Can anyone tell me what that holley fuel pump unit is ?
It's a fuel pump!
@@jonathanallen2530 ha ha ..... no it's a sniper

No pinion depth adjustment? Just pinion preload, backlash. Not the way factory dealer training 45 years ago. I’m so confused.
Pinion depth is dont wirh shims under the support on the 9" everything gets depth shims
When ypu have built 150 or more of these exact axles with these exact lockers and gearsets...you have notes on what depth is gonna be.
@@BigTireGarage Thank you for the reply, did I miss it in the video? Kinda important. Retired Jeep dealer tech.
music is not .
I know this aired a while ago, but I'm playing catchup. I've noticed that you use air tools but, mostly I see you using that tried and true ratcheting wrench. Just wondering why you don't use battery operated tools...
I just don't seem to get the same "feel" through a battery operated tool....I know it personal preference but that is why
Woot
Time to consider updating that hair style.

Good episode, content wise. But lots of out of focus video, and background music way louder than the talking.
Ian I had Once Upon a Time Spike TV got canceled because of Spike Lee I was just wondering if that was the truth or not I honestly watch the power block every weekend?
Good video, butt the music was way to loud and drowned out a lot of what you were saying 😬👍👍
I want the bug in the background
That is my first car.....love that car...it needs some work and I have to get back on it sooner rather than later
@@BigTireGarage it’s got just enough dust on it
Luv these videos, but please silence the music while you are talking.
So blurry towards the end.
Is it just me or is there lots of out of focus footage in this one?
Music keeps getting in the way of what you are saying.
👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽
DITCH the stupid music or cut its volume by at least half. Otherwise, great stuff
Music too loud compared to voices. Turn up the volume turn down the volume!
Yeah it was a bad mix my faut....fixed on next video
Your videos would be so much better without the loud music.
Hey dump the music! It’s poorly mixed - stepping on your talking - and is of a really annoying genre. You will save time in editing and end up with a better product.

@@BigTireGarage at SEMA last year at the Yukon gear booth you probably met a lot of people that day
Music sucks,too much going on
Turn down the back ground music it's blowing you out.
sorry..i had to stop watching the sound was all over
loose the tunes...
Focus was off. Blurry for most of the video and the music was dubbed over your voice too much
The music was so loud in comparison to your speech, it made this unwatchable. Sadly. Got tired of messing with the volume control.
The audio levels are all over the place. Nice video otherwise .
Please turn down or stop the horrible music. It’s way louder than the talking.
Made in China on the Yukon box😢
Good info.
But dude. Time to grow up and lose the heat miser hairdo
Nope!!!
What happened with the sound had to stop watching. Such a shame
