Give the people what they want...JADE UPDATES!!! Even if it’s 2-4 minutes unedited or a live stream...just something man...I’m dying over here
Dalton Farr go follow jeep freaks on Instagram, he does live updates every now and again on jade
Speaking of Jade.......??? Update???
I miss the 2 door Jeep overlanding experience. That was the reason I started watching several years ago. It’s just not the same.
No update on jade in over a month?
Bro. He got Jade cut up knowing it would take months so that he doesn't have to make content for his patreon members. Duh. He's a smart guy and knows how to give himself a vacation.
Jake, when you had the oil pan off, it would have been a good time to replace the main seal. I believe it's a two piece deal on that same Cherokee. I helped a buddy replace the seal on his 2000 Cherokee. It's a bugger, but doable. We had to fashion a brass punch to knock the half moon seal up and over the top of the crank and out the bottom. Took a while to get it to start moving, but it finally budged and came right out. His Jeep was leaking for a while right there until we replaced the seal and the pan gasket.
Loved my flowers and seeing y’all. Safe travels until our paths cross again. ❤️
This channel is going south quick. If you have other plans for the channel, just come clean man.
What's the story on jade did you like give up on her?
She is still in surgery. Still cut up! Pray she can be out back together.
For any oil leak on an XJ start at the top and work your way down. Any oil leak flows backwards and down towards the rear main seal area and can look like an oil pan or RMS seal leak.
Check/replace in this order
Valve cover gasket
Oil filter adapter o rings
Distributor gasket
Then move to oil pan gasket and Rear main seal. Another leak prone area is the timing chain gasket (the thing you jacked with not that long ago) and the front crank seal in the timing chain cover.
And why waste the time to pull the pan and not spend the extra 5 or 10 minutes to replace the rear main seal?
thats what i thought too, rear main
Whats the hold up with jade?
Jake you need to read your comments bro. I told you it was most likely the front crank seal getting fucked from you installing the new balancer. Just dont use the puller again like you did because it was you that took the chunks out of the original cover with long bolts through the damper
Id imgaine he has no f%^ks to give when yhe money keeps flowing.
Where’s Jades progress?
Is Jades build still a thing?
My guess is barely.
Okay.... third video I’m saying this on in a row, and subsequently, last video I’m sayin this on... jaaaaaaaaaade updaaaaaaaaaaate?
I mean.... a couple seconds of just a couple pictures... us wrangler peeps who subbed because we respect how you built up jade and were so impressed by it and how you survived in it.. every video where you don’t give us a single update...cmon. We wouldn’t care of it wasn’t finished. Just a small update would be nice please. Like, less than a 1 minute vlog saying “jade is still in multiple pieces, here’s a picture. Have a nice day” would be fine.
We waited 3 weeks for this?

Thumbnail picture of that white Jeep with roof rack, new mud tires and loaded up looks great!
Boy you really know how to pick a piece of crap don't ya lol
At 59 seconds, there appears to be an image of the rear of Jade sitting on the shop floor. Not sure what is happening, but no photos of Jade since the new frame extension was welded together. Jake made a comment at Overland Expo West about wanting to be back on the road in June. Not sure how that is going to happen as updates are nowhere to be found. Not sure why since the build was suppose to be filmed live. Had to give it my first “negative” review over the past few years.
Mike Hoffman I don’t think that is actually the rear of Jade, it doesn’t look right, and they haven’t worked on Jade at that shop (or at least shown that they have worked on Jade there) I think it would be too much work to try and move Jade to that shop, cut in half as she is.
So... Jade, or no Jade. This is Jake's life and adventures. He is sharing them with the love of his life, four-legged loyal buddies, and close friends... And, the rest of us. He is doing something many want to or have daydreamed about. If I had a preference I would filter out the negative comments and look forward to what ultimately becomes of Jade and what happens next on "Wetterns Way".
brian patrick cork except he’s using other people’s money to live this dream and not fulfilling his promise to those people who pay him... nothing against him personally, he’s a good guy, but at the same time, he’s a bum who’s never worked a job and lives off selling snake oil.
@@eddies979 You don't know that for certain. Many of us that support Jake believe in the man, mission, and method. Give him some space and time. He might just blow you away with the results (his content to date is certainly no measure of "snake oil". By the way... He's no "bum who’s never worked a job", brother. For example, Jake served in the United States Air Force. All that said, I think it's terrific you want to see more of his journey.
brian patrick cork I hope you’re right and he does blow me away with his results...however since saying he was going on a 50 state road trip, he has picked up two more dogs, a girl, and another broken Jeep. Who’s paying for the dogs and the girl and the broken jeeps? He hasn’t had a job in a couple years...his patreons are paying for all of this and I think he’s been to 10 states??? Again, I hope he gets it back together and you’re right, but it ain’t looking good.
Btw, I’m pretty sure he barely served and was never deployed. He quit because he wants to be an actor...watch his old videos from the sailboat days. Correct me if I’m wrong
@@eddies979 We support him because we like the effort thus far. And, hoping for all the more when he is ready.
@@brianpatrickcork4513 why doesnt he at least reply to people's comments ? On Instagram or here, why doesnt he show his interaction with Annie as much anymore, if you look at his video posts, hes posting less and less. It's like having a cell phone plan and each month you are given less and less data when you are paying. He disappears and doesnt say anything to those who are paying him basically. He doesnt do as much outdoors camping stuff anymore. He wasnt even at Overland expo west that long. Should I go on? You are backing him up, that's great, maybe cuz you met him, I met him as well as well as his friend. But there is the reality fact to be said here.... are you denying any points that I made? Click on his videos and look at his recent history uploads...just over the past 7 months.
Hey Jake like you said everybody is been good to you except for your jeep. Time for a Toyota my friend you will expending more time traveling than fixing them. Just came back from Utah, Idaho, Wyoming. and Montana in a 1987 Toyota 4Runner. Zero, nada issues. Leaving on Wednesday to Baja on my newly rebuild 1992 Toyota truck with 1998 Toyota Tacoma 4 cylinders. I will let you know how it went. Adios Amigo
The star of this channel is his Jeep, Jade. And he has gotten a lot of followers because of the Jeep. He is a Jeep guy.
To be honest, his Jeep breaking up more than usual actually gives him extra content.
But it will not be a good idea for him to jump ship from Jeep to a Toyota. Then he would not be able to have those Jeep Jamborees. Now it will be Toyota Jamborees.
Well, he should stick to Jeep. You see you are driving older Toyotas that have been fixed up right. He too just needs to fix his Jeep right and it will be good. Jeeps are not the most reliable, but it will survive. He gets a lot of help from the community.
As of today not Jade yet. Now his girlfriend jeep will be part of the non working jeep. Just came back today from the baja 500 race. I drove my 1992 Toyota 4x4 with 1998 Tacoma engine put about 2000 miles. No issues at all. He need a Tacoma. 👍🏾
I love your vids you use to make one everyday witch was awesome now it’s almost once a month witch sucks...
Cherokee looks awesome! I'm sure you'll get the oil leak worked out. Cool to see Ben in the mix again!
I JUST BOUGHT A 98 SPORT THANK YOU FOR SOME AWESOME IDEAS FOR MY FIRST CAR
Congrats that's awesome have fun with it!
We are here for Jaaade
She's undergoing surgery. Pray for her!
Like rolando moya said, its time for a toyota! They last forever and are great off road. I have a 3rd gen 4runner and i love it. Also heard good things overlanding with tacomas. Been subscribed for a while good videos!
Cheers
The vent under the steering column that blows on your crotch?! Is that thing awesome or what! .
@@h.r.puffnstuff8705 haha sure is! 🤪😂
Ben seems like he’s in a really good place! Nice to see
Nice to see a Cherokee. Ive had one for a few years and love it and have come to learn the good and the bad very well. Don't know where you stand on the oil leak. Check the 90 degree bend coming out the block for the oil filter. They leak after a while. Never a big one. The valve covers leaks too. Both can be done in three hours with the right tools. Should have done the rear main while you had the oil pan out. very easy. Just time consuming.
As much as I love my TJ my old 99 XJ was still the best Jeep I owned. I miss my old girl so much. That XJ is awesome!!
I have a Jeep Xj so this gave me ideas and inspiration.. love the vids jake!!!
It’s not just XJs, any Jeep 4.0 oil pan seal will leak if you don’t put a little RTV in 4 places on the bottom of the block. 2 spots where the block meets the rear cap and 2 spots where the block meets the timing chain cover. Then the seal and oil pan. Jake’s oil pan started leaking because the front of the oil pan seals to the timing chain cover. Probably damaged the oil pan seal when you pulled off and replaced the cover.
Happy Memorial Day!

Hey Jake, Jason here. I was wondering what motorcycle carrier you use? And if you knew the weight capacity off hand?
So glad to see you back in the wilderness doing a little over landing
God Bless America and our troops ... thank you ...
With it on the ground it's very easy to change the oil pan gasket with out moving anything your front 2 bolts on the pan are probably not gripping retap and add a little bit bigger bolt this was a fix for a 98 xj tighten from middle out in increments
Nice to see you post up again. Still leaking after oil pan gasket... Didnt you have the harmonic balancer off before in that XJ. I would be looking at that front crankshaft seal pretty hard. Actually i would have replaced it when the balancer was off.
Good to see Ben again. Hopefully you get Betty white fixed soon to take her on the next trip
Good to see Ben. Good videos coming!👍👍
It's awesome to see Ben! He seem far more comfortable in front of a camera now
the love for 2 door cherokees is up and im greatful
Your girl wrenches! I love it! Welcome back Ben! Nice to see Dan and Jen again, too! Expo West is a dream of mine! If you ever make it to East again, I'll figure out how to get there in Red! Miss you
Makes me miss my xj. I now have a wj as my new project jeep
Hey Jake n everyone hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend!! God bless everyone and be safe out there. Be happy and live your present life!!
Great to see Ben again! The Ford could actually be built into a killer expedition rig....just sayin’!
theninja001 totally could
Lots of us have said that but without Jade it just wouldn’t be the same
RIP Jade 😢
Channel content is kind of dying out maybe he just isn't in to it any more.
Its the girl. I see this coming. Hes now putting his stuff on her ride. We know what will happen to all that if they break up, she will be like it's all mine...and may take Annie too. My ex stole two of my dogs, the cops and courts take the females side. That's why I dont date anymore. 8 yrs solo and life is great. Which is why I liked his content and lifestyle but now hes gone simp. You guys should look up MGTOW on TH-cam.
Great video love your channel keep us updated on jade.
The tires and wheels were much needed! Very nice!
Impatiently waiting for updates on jade! 😢
I know because my 2000 XJ did the same thing and I thought it was the rear main, it was the o ring on the oil filter adaptor, 230000 miles not and does not leak a drop
Glad to see some videos again
i love jimmy haha
Edit: The jeep TJ is my favorite jeep
Rear main is a common thing on the 4.0s
Dont listen to all the hate man, people change, interests change, you have to make best with what you got at the moment. Do you some will leave others will come. Gl with everything
Oakey afterbirth.....yesssssss!!!!
Any updates on the Jeep? Your thumbnail to this video is everything I want for my xj
Awesome seeing you and Ben together on film..and both happy!! Terrific!
Check you oil filter adapter seal!!
Good stuff brotha, looks like an awesome trip!! As always, looking forward to the vids. The flowers had me rolling!
Absolute proof a steady woman screws up an adventure...
Yes, add a woman and an adventure becomes a soap opera. On the other hand, he may be playing to his audience.
David C. There is a reason that the hero rides off into the sunset... a woman brings civilization into the mix.. the adventure is over...
The reason you are not seeing jade is comfort... this relationship is done in a short time when they climb back into the old Jeep ....
One is not alone (solo) on an adventure. An adventure opens one up to new experiences, new people, new relationships. This is the second time we’ve seen a woman change the dynamic from adventure to, yes, comfort.
Maybe that’s what he was looking for all along ... at least she appears to somewhat pitch in and help with her Jeep. 👍🏻
Jake "I can't go on like this anymore, I need to spend time alone" Also Jake " Meet my new girlfriend and I'm cutting my baby in half for her."
This is the second video I've watched....the first was the bed making video for 2 ppl...I'm sad to see that Jeep isn't in this vid. I haven't been as hurt since Jon killed Danny.
Great to see the crew in action together! Thanks for being you. Hugs and errr Keep it Simple Silly Simply,Lesa
I'd like to hear the progress of Jade and see some video of it..or at least tell us what's going on with it. I know it's a lot of work and expense plus it's taking up space in some other guys shop and hope it's not a turd sitting on his sidewalk...
I've been watching your vids now a long time and for me it's always been about jeeps/wranglers. The Jade stretch build was an exciting thing for us subs and now we're all scratching our heads sayin "where's Jade?"..."how's the progress going?"..."did you give up on it or what?". If it was me, I'd be burning candles (working nights) to get'r done. It's none of my business yes, but you made it our business by videoing it to begin with. Let's get some answers! Be honest! Too expensive? Can't afford it right now? I respect honesty more than zipped-lips.
And yes Kinsey is a DIME...in many ways....I bet she'd work along your side burning the midnight hours on Jade! Not too many women would do that! Maybe you traded-in Jade for Kinsey? If yes, then Kinsey was the better side of the trade! Lol. You can always get another wrangler but not a woman like her.
But all-in-all, PEACE Jake and Kinsey.
@Scot Hughes I just heard the term "dime" the other day and thought it was a good thing...meaning a "10". Is it a bad term? if yes then sorry! I didn't mean for it to be a negative or a dirty word... didn't mean it to be a sexual thing either. I;m an old fart and still learning these new slangs lol.
@Scot Hughes Ok thanks! But in my eyes she's a 10...we all have different eyes. I don't call a woman a 10 based upon looks alone, but on her character AND looks. A woman's smile alone could be a Dime in my book. But that's just me. peace.
TLDR it’s nonya. Jade is dead.
I dont get why he can’t just use his dads life insurance money to get a used new Jeep. The brand is about living in a Jeep not living poor in. Trailer
Love to see Ben!
Nice to see some old faces and great places. Better luck with betty white hope everything works out across all vehicles.
You guys this footage is from mother's day it's obviously old for All we know he could be in the Wrangler right now this isn't go to all states in one day he's trying to enjoy it maybe he's a little of schedule but Jesus look at his older videos he needs a break stop complaining and enjoy the videos
Danger Levi dude, people are allowed to complain especially when he’s using their money to fund all of this.
You know these plants are poisonous you seriously need to wash your hands shake some guy's hand right after 😂😂😂
Hey Jake just want to say thanks for sharing your life with us. I recently purchased a roof top tent and plan on traveling in a few months to come. All because I got inspired by you
Daww i liked the last intro song
I just got one of these roof racks today. That's what's brought me to the video. Looks good. I love to see Rotella going in the XJ.
@7:18 the grin she gives Jake after he tells her "Let it explode in your mouth...."
The way she oiled that filter.... just oof🥵😂😂
Great video and nice to see Kinsey as always, and the Ford get back up on the road again! Sometimes, an older vehicle will surprise you. Love Jade and hoping for an awesome product when you'll are finished. Apparently, the Cherokee "XJ" needed a bit more TLC. Still, I've always been a diehard CJ, YJ, TJ fan!
Dorothy Lintott's compound adjective comes to mind. A bit high-brow for this crowd, but someone may do some digging.
That pretty much sums it up.
I appreciate this video Jake--- but, you're already late on your next update. Post more videos! PLEASE!
Love to see you back out there fella. Enjoy the expo...
Great, bit what about you jeep that's in half
Love the new intro and btw when are you making more vids about jade
I'm gonna start making videos and get patreons , I've had to save a month to get my 2 other tires (got two last month ). I will likely never have enough for $800.00 bumpers and a $1300.00 roof rack yes that rack is $1300.00, Glad I can weld and build my own stuff , I may have taken me near a year to build my XJ but I done it myself and all the money came from MY pocket.
Hey man it’s probably the actual oil seal. Were you able to look into that?
Where is jade.
dang that's crazy about the flowers. Its aggravating having to switch up plans last minute, but It always adds to the adventure. you handled the frustration great 🤙🤙
ITS RYAN DUNN!! I knew you were alive...
What are you gonna do with the old tires? Are they for sale?
So went from Jade to a truck to another truck to another jeep. Idk man.
She throws down with a wrench eh! My brother’s on his 4th Cherokee, his advice is always have a parts car just in case haha
Dude literally shakes someone's hands after he picks poisonous plants lmao
Rear main oil seal on the engine they always go bad.
next time youre at dons i hope you guys have your xj and we can get them side by side because they are twins lol
extra points for the dirtbike :D
Please tell me you did the rear main seal while the oil pan was off...
Nice! I didn’t have to disconnect the exhaust on my 01 when I did my rms. But looks good, I like the roof rack.
You know you frequently have to depend on a Ford when a Jeep dumps out...
Do you ever read the comments or check your Instagram messages??? Been trying to contact you for almost a month now dude...
"Be kind. For everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle." - Plato
What's unkind about this comment?
@@kellytinsley3025 Possibly nothing. If you meant no rancor there is no rancor.
same dude, no reply
He will not reply. He's too busy working on Jade. Bahahhahahaha
Hell yeah brother, just saw this channel and found some other Jeepers from good ole Wisconsin. Have some fun with the road trips and get as much beer and cheese in ya as humanly possible!
Jake. If you still leaking oil you need to add the following part to the oil pain. 53010511AA. I had to order one for my wife’s Cherokee.
you guys sure?????, oil pan gasket???? I bet its the oil filter adaptor leaking
cool new intro song, still love catch it as the song of the year, awesome xj build had a similar build a few years ago.
nice video, i love xj 2dr
How is Jade??
Still in surgery. Keep on praying for her.
He will not respond to your questions.
Should have spent a couple minutes doing a show-and-tell of all those acoustic guitars laying around camp. =)
Damn, dude needs to find a better name than Rosie o'Donnell for that Jeep 🤢
Jade is the heart and soul of this channel
