How did you think the Scrambler handled going off-road?
It looked like it was doing Great.Thanks for taking us along.
Come to Butler PA the Birth place of the Jeep find a old Jeep get it going and Roadkill it.
I have no idea, as I don't have Motor trade app , as I live in Africa. Low iq people at motor trend management level . Igiots
Bring back dirt everyday.

Story of my adult life.
To bad Dirt Everyday was cancelled by Motor Trend 😢
I know it was my favorite show on mt
And they claimed to be better than discovery, they obviously listen to the fans just as well…
Absolute entertainment. I want to see more of this scrambler.
More off-road adventures with Fred and Dave!
That rig is really put together well David good job
It's great seeing Cotton and Dave again.
Always get a kick out of leaf spring rigs killing it. Leaf springs can work very well.
More scrambler content needed . Love the jeep...
I love that Jeep so much! My first Jeep was an 81 Scrambler I bought for $2500 off a car lot in Grass Valley. I wanted to drive the Rubicon so bad. I now have a CJ-7 that is built nearly identically to your Scrambler, but in much worse condition. I'd love to completely rebuild it and stretch the wheelbase and tub but keep it low tech with leaf springs and carburetor.
Love that your keeping it real with admission of neglect and then revitalizing. I want to see how far the Zip tie moved after all that
All that fun a pay check to? Your living the dream.
dave chappelle is a ledgend hes hilarious bring back dirt every day these guys made me laugh so much
That scrambler is awesome and gets it done!!
Get all the OG Petersen guys together and film something with this rig and Pewe’s CJ!! There are a lot of us that love old school rigs like this!
When Cotton said
Every time I look at my project I think “it’s okay, I can take 20 years”
Didn't Rick Pewe start the whole off road sandal thing? 🤔
Edit: Still have the magazine this Scrambler debuted in. Glad to see you resurrecting it.
Not repainting my chalky OD square body though. I like the patina. 😁
GREAT BUILD, GREAT VIDEO, AND THANKS FOR SHARING!!!
More dirt head dave! Best fab guy in the roadkill family of shows.
Oh and bring back Dirt Every Day!
Finally a Contraption from that Bunch that actually done something
That's because it's his personal jeep.
They have several very good ones. And several that suck.
Done did something
@@cconnon1912 big 10-4 on the done did it
It amazes me they will show this but got rid of the “dirt everyday“ show.
man i love this type of videos brings back alot of memories
finally a scrambler video worth watching!
I remember seeing this thing over the years in Peterson's and various other rags. Totally old school build, with old school tech, and it still works just fine.
I remember the zip tie trick from one of the 4x4 mags growing up 😅
I remember when they first put this show on TH-cam I've seen this episode before here still great
Show.. sempre acompanhando aqui do Brasil...
That was awesome
Great jeep cruise, I do miss an old test drive with I think a Jeep in South East Arizona, that trip was A place I would to see in person....... :)
I wondered how it magically got more green the last time we saw the CJ
Luv that Jeep!!
We need the full episode of the freiburger scrambler on moab Utah in TH-cam
I need the whole channel back on TH-cam. The prioritise profit over anything 📈 , imagine how many Youth around the world they could of inspired by now , low iq management at motor trend 🤔
I feel ya bro I do the same thing with my whips. Always creating new sometimes leaves stuff in the dust
Awesome footage! I think some of the story got funky, Chapelle was driving it down the road on the way to Moab when Cotton and Frieberger started the trip 🤣
It’s crazy how different cameras change the appearance on screen of the Jeeps color
Zip ties work great for adjusting motorcycle travel also.
love that rig! more rock crawler content please!
Man I remember when me and my dad would watch u guys he's dead now
He’s such a likeable dude
Yukon gears and lockers! I remember a 6 wheel drive jeep back in the 80s named the Armadillo! I can't remember if it was jeep magazine or dirt and off road
Sweet! im working a FJ62 landcruiser to do about the same, its close now!
I want a CJ7 or CJ8 just like that. Great drivetrain.
Only In A Jeep!!!
Hello from Butler Pennsylvania The Birth Place Of The Jeep where the was Born. If it wasn't for the Bantam Car Company Jeep wouldn't Exist. The prototype the Very first Jeep is a site to behold and every TRUE Jeeper should see it and Make their way to Butler PA. Parr of the Original Factory still exists as well. Dave you should come to Butler find a Jeep roadkill it.....Wait till the Heritage Jeep fest next June find a Jeep for sale their. The Heritage Jeep fest holds the record for the world's largest Jeep Parade and Gathering.
hey roadkill crew i was thinking that it would be an awesome ide if you bought a 1927 ford truck and made an off roader or drag racer out of it. and i have a question for all of you. why haven't you gotten more of your roadkill cars as hot wheel toys yet and got one of you cars into a movie yet?
Love your scrambler it has all the perfect mods done to it and honestly trepadors are the best tires you can buy for all kinds of offroad there good in mud on rocks the Australians pit them at the top of the pedestal! Sorry Chapelle! I saw part of this on Chapelles channel! Did you try pulling the spark plugs blowing the water out and trying to start it or did it immediately bend valves or something?
The tires feel good, yeah. They're new, treps. Not the old swampers
Came here looking for this comment 😂
Water crossings, friendly rewinder go slow go slow save yourself a bunch of headaches in the end. End of discussion on that one. I had an m38j Willys jeep for about 20 years with an F head engine in it put that thing in four-wheel-drive low range first gear. It would crawl up just about anything. It was sure slow going, but it would go was very fast down the road in high gear and highway range, but it was sure fun to drive out in the desert Did pretty good in the sand dunes out at Glamis and out in the chocolate mountains to lotta fun back in the day 70s and 80s and 90s even with my blazer my 1977 blazer lotta fun but water crossings you go slow so you don’t drown the engine out and keep track of the water level number one rule for me when crossing water along with how fast the water is running as well.
I've been waiting to see this episode on TH-cam to actually see what happened to Dave's butter jeep .I've only hydro-locked one vehicle a 02 s10 I had ,but there's 3 or 4 that's only God knows why they didn't 😂
I've got a 75 scout II sping over d60s 345 gas T19 twin stick dana 300 4:1. Love the scrambler. What size are those stickys?
Yesss❤❤❤
Pretty sure I remember this from the magazine days. Whatever happened to f--bomb . Used to get all the magazine's hot rod/ 4x4/ mini trucking/ cc . you've been around a loong time bud
I was wandering about the F bomb as well.
Have seen these guys in years , is there youtube channel still going , this used to be my favourite YT channel
They post regularly on the Motortrend app.
@@BurninGas that's only for people in the USA , what about the rest of the world , such a shame . They disappeared from TH-cam shortly after might car mods beat them in a car build .
@lodzalater8169 If you use a VPN you could watch them. It is unfortunate, that's for sure.
@@BurninGas what a terrible excuse
I noticed south Dakota plates on frieburgers jeep
You can tell he’s been off roading his whole life
I miss dirt daily )
SUGGESTION; PLEASE REPRODUCE THE JEEP SCRAMBLER IN METAL BODIES FOR THE AFTERMARKET!!!
Put good heads and exhaust in that thing with FastEFI and it would absolutely SLAP 😎
It makes me want to take my old truck out on the trails.
What’s that charger in the beginning of the video?
Steve’s jeep overhaul to
Bring Dirt Every Day back
How did it get out of that hole?
Why are you surprised the tyres are round and don't have flat spots when they aren't even the tyres that it was sitting on 😂
Was that a North Dakota license plate?
Very cool Jeep, trade you a TJ for it.
They are 40s?
Glad to see some 4 wheeling. I canceled my subscription after they ended DED
Bring back dirt every day
Jackstands!?? We no need no stinking jackstands!!
I LOVE IT!!! PLEASE BRING ICE BACK ICE POWER AT EASTER IN MOAB!!!
Don't worry i changed the oil for you when you weren't looking.
I hydro lock it….He went in a 10-15 mph…….😂
Where does David have all his cars and motors
Merlin has to come get you if you mess up!
In Moab, it's Rory and Trail Mater...
Why won’t you guys post newer episodes?
They release a constant barrage of new episodes for all the shows. Just not on TH-cam. They want you to pay for their streaming service. They have to make money, magazines don't sell anymore. Roadkill is going to be filming at Finnegan's house this week. Dave and Steve will both be there. You won't see it on TH-cam this year tho.
Is that engine, carburated? Or efi?
Clearly carbureted.
Has anybody ever built a low hp big torque rig or can it be done without doing a Cummings swap?
Guys, i really miss you 😢 its almost like no onde w soares money and time hás forgot about my togths... Today o wont take any medicines
famous last words, oh we'll be ok that XJ cherokee is making it no problem. lol yeah right.
I canceled MT after they canceled DED
Real men live in sandals!!! Sxck it haters!!!
Recycling very old content!?
That thing is cool. Needs fuel injection though.
Take the leaf springs out. Put coil overs
Trying to be dirt everyday
You know fryburger is the inspiration of dirt ever day right he was the first editor of four wheel and off-road
dave does not know how to cross water in a jeep lol
So not so much an 81 Scrambler just a body on completely built items.
The yellow jeep is a straight rookie. Acts like destroying a engine is no biggie than crys later.
I must have missed the crying
@ekd1985 Dude was on another channel. Acting like he's never knew about water crossings. He's a fryburger groupee. He needs to nob him off.
@@Coolhansolo sure
Moab sucks!! Tell your friends!
When you're crawling in a stick shift, are you just barely letting the clutch pedal out, without throttle?
Stay on the street brother
Airing down for ride quality? What the f*** are you talking about
