Id like a full race with narration/voice over with explanation or whatever of what we are seeing and what you and Mike saw. Probably serialized into smaller chunks. I cant do 8+ hours in one video. Id also like to see a complete clean and inspect on the jeep, and yours and Mikes thoughts on what you liked or didnt, do over list, repair list etc. thanks, love your content, keep up the great work! And thank you for your service
I actually caught you on tv going through turkey claw but never heard what happened to stop you. The fact you made it and started the race puts you well ahead of most of us, good job!
Upload the whole race in quad cam format as just the "Race video", then maybe start poking away at smaller vids with commentary. A walk around after action report vid would be cool also with talking points on how each part performed. Then lastly a video on the experience of Hammer town, and the race as a whole.
Good on you for building this in your garage and competing in this event. I have a buddy that built a '72 Bronco to compete in the Mexican 1000 and Baja 1000. He did this build in his garage with almost zero sponsors and just a handful of good friends. He ran Baja 1000 this year and actually finished and won his class. Given that I know what it takes to compete on this level and you did good. Congrats.
I’d love to see the full race, commentary on it will be even better, especially for your own record while it’s fresh in your memory! Congrats on such a successful build guys
My suggestion is for you to put the videos in order: Give a review of Day 1 with your videos, comments, etc., then Day 2, Day 3, etc. one or more of them might have to be divided into part 1 and part 2, etc. Jeep looks awesome!!!🤙
Great job 👏 I've been watching you since the beginning. I appreciate your channel and have been a subscriber since it's meager beginnings. I have learned a ton from your channel. As a fellow Jeeper/ offroader and Veteran (Thank you for your service) In closing please never loose your humble demeanor, and Thanks for your content 🙏
16:18 That rock took out so many tires lol Hell yeah I'd watch the whole race! Would be cool to see any of the struggles to get the rigs back after a breakdown. Shoot any of the stuff we don't usually get to see as spectators. I've been checking out the Star Mount Starlink systems. Those live stream POVs were epic!
First off I am very happy and jealous that you went to the HAMMERS and came home to tell us all about it !!! I would like to see what damage the jeep took and what you are replacing/upgrading. I am hoping you do put out the entire race with your footage and what ever anyone else has on you including the USCG. And of course with nariating on whats going on at the time.... I know you were busy with the build but we missed seeing it come alive, so if you did record any I would like to see that also.
First off I am very happy and jealous that you made it to the HAMERS and came home to tell us about it !!! I would love to see the race from your view. I also would like to see what damages the jeep took and what is getting repaired. Now that you ran it what do you want to change/upgrade? I know you were busy with the build but we missed seeing it come alive, so if you did record any I would like to see that also.
great build fellas! I enjoyed to the build videos. I was really looking forward to seeing you guys at KOH, and I did get chance to chat for a bit. You guys did a great job and are very approachable. A full race video would be great, it would be cool if you can also show a full map of the race course and plot yourself with progress on the the map as the video went along. my 2 cents
If you do the full race video just make sure and set chapters up or put your face in the corner when you’re adding commentary. That way it can be watched on 2x speed and it’s easy to see where you chime in.
Would love to see all the race footage whether its all in one video or over a series of videos. Would also love to see the rest of the build series of the Jeep too if possible.
Awesome before & after with tuning. Experiencing those changes as a driver is such an amazing feeling. Looking forward to see more from KOH and we will be ready for you at KOH25!
I look forward to all the footage you’ve got. From, building, to racing, to anything. You’re just entertaining to watch and the rig you built is sick bro!
I’ll say it again Good job on what you did accomplish at KOH!! That race is no joke and until you’re in the seat like you said you have no idea. You and Mike built a awesome rig and I’m proud of you both. Also glad to put a face to a name finally and hopefully we can wheel at crossbar in the future and catch up!
Hey Ben, I edited the KOH content for Lite Brite the years they attended, along with over 100 other edits for them, and I was wondering of you might need an editor to help out and free up some of your time. Never hurts to ask right. Just looking for more fun clients and you guys are doing some great fun content. Cheer buddy, hope to talk to ya in the future.
Might want to try running tire liners. We run them on the 4400 (coyote liners) and I’m 100% sure they saved our wheel/tire multiple times smacking rocks at speed.
I am down to watch all of the footage you want to put up. Love seeing the trails. I had a blast pre running the rocks and desert in my JKU on Atturos. Wish I could have stopped and seen your rig but had too much going on being pit crew and volunteering for UTV race day on wrecking ball. I literally pulled the wheels off of a Kawasaki getting him back to his pit not too far from where your pit was.
I would say only the hardest core fan would be interested in watching the 8 hr video. Sounds like a lot of work my friend. I am interested in how the race went and what the plans are for the next race. Thank you for your time.
I wonder if you couldn’t put some sort of relief blow off valve in your power steering system. That would relieve excess pressure before blowing something apart
Congratulations on a first year finish!! That’s a major feat!! Silly question! What brand are those triangle gear bags in rear? I had a cheap set but they didn’t hold up. Thanks in advance, and again congratulations, can’t wait for more footage!!
Well, we didnt finish unfortunately... More to come on that in the upcoming videos. The gear bags are just a set from amazon, we will see how they hold over over time. Designing and building a more permanent gear storage area is on the list for this year. amzn.to/3I1t5GO
Congrats - thanks for sharing your KOH journey! You guys did an awesome job and the Jeep looked strong. I’ll watch any & all videos no matter how short or long … but I am your mother 😂😂
Full race mate, it will give us a little bit of what you guys went through. While you guys were out there getting beat up I'll be sitting on the couch with a beer and pizza 😂😂😂
Yes i run the Green label Trail blade boss on my 4 Door, they work really well! Its hard to find a good tire for KOH as there are just so many variables. The Nittos are known as a pretty top tier tire for offroad racing so i figured id give them a shot. High speed rock stuff kills almost any tire, and even these are really worn from the race, would love to see how other tires compare in a race scenario (or if it even matters at all)
Nitto has more wins and finishes then any other tire in KOH... cant go wrong with them u less you get a sponsorship for another brand and they are free to you 💯
They are Bestop Core Doors, unfortunately they are discontinued now so you would have to look for a used set. They are pretty pricey but nice doors. Motobilt also has a nice set of aluminum doors for the JK now.
Let’s see…….How many spares to take?…..Well…..ya know !!!!……We are nobodies !!!…..LOL Soooo NOW you wanna talk about other Ultra 4 races !!!!!…….LOL…..Love ya dude !!!!
would be good to hear a mix of the jeep and you narrating as you go round , awesome effort too, just finishing that event in a home built rig is something to be very proud of 👍👍🤌
LS3 525 GM hotcam crate with a ReidTH400, reverse manual valve body, 3400 Stall, Atlas 3.8, worked really well in the rocks slow in low, and pretty dang quick in high
Pretty good! The hans device put a lot of pressure on my shoulder and left some bruising but all is well! The jeep was really sturdy and well dampened, strapped in and was good to go!

Want to dictate anything else? lol.......
no im good thanks

I love that you asked for our feedback! I’d love to see some more lawn mowing footage!
I’m glad you are back! Mowing updates soon! #husqvarnanation!
The lawnening is happening… again…
I actually caught you on tv going through turkey claw but never heard what happened to stop you. The fact you made it and started the race puts you well ahead of most of us, good job!
You should be very proud dude! Good work! This is some exciting footage!

I've followed this Jeep build since the times where ya'll lived in Virginia and it's came a long way. Hard work does indeed pay off. 🤙
Great demo of the importance and improvements made of the performance suspension tuning!!
First off I am very happy and jealous that you went to the HAMMERS and came home to tell us all about it !!!

Build videos will be coming soon! Still want to show all the work that went into finishing it off
Ben that is insane in the difference in the footage for the before and after! Bring on the footage! Always love your vids!
great build fellas! I enjoyed to the build videos. I was really looking forward to seeing you guys at KOH, and I did get chance to chat for a bit. You guys did a great job and are very approachable. A full race video would be great, it would be cool if you can also show a full map of the race course and plot yourself with progress on the the map as the video went along. my 2 cents
definitely would like a full race video. or broken down into multi part series with narration through the rock trails.
Id love to see a full race video. Driver and co driver audio during the race would be great to hear as well.
If you do the full race video just make sure and set chapters up or put your face in the corner when you’re adding commentary. That way it can be watched on 2x speed and it’s easy to see where you chime in.
I’ve been waiting for this!! I’m going to watch it tonight when I can enjoy it!!

Definitely highlights and a review of what held up and what didn't as far your modifications.
I’ll say it again Good job on what you did accomplish at KOH!! That race is no joke and until you’re in the seat like you said you have no idea.

Awesome work man. Just attending KoH is a bucket list item for me, and here you are building a race jeep and competing. Great job.
I would say only the hardest core fan would be interested in watching the 8 hr video. Sounds like a lot of work my friend. I am interested in how the race went and what the plans are for the next race. Thank you for your time.
Congratulations Ben. KOH is no joke.
I would watch the whole race. Maybe not in one sitting, but I would watch it!
Post up as much as you can. I'll watch it all.
This is the KOH coverage I'e been waiting for! Great job fellas
Looks like you had a awesome time .show the whole race plz
For sure can’t wait to see the edited race day video, but for sure would love to see the full race video. Also love to see your rig walk around.
I wonder if you couldn’t put some sort of relief blow off valve in your power steering system. That would relieve excess pressure before blowing something apart
I saw you driving in Hammer Town, but I walked around and couldn’t find you.
It would be awesome if you put together all your footage.
I've been watching Andrews 4 and half hours on and off for the last couple of days. I'd be happy to watch yours.
Would love to see race footage with voice over!
I see you put DandC VSL lights on the cowl. I LOVE these lights. It’s my 2nd favorite mod!
GREAT explination, It was impossible to follow you during qualifying and race day. Post both, Full and short. I'll watch both
Can’t wait to see it… heck .. we were on edge just to see how you guys and the Jeep faired .. beautiful build btw!!!
I want to experience 8hrs of the race through your lenses. Great idea!! I'm a former endurance racer so that stuff rocks my world.
Great job!! Love seeing the build and stoked you finished!!
Didn’t finish unfortunately! Made it pretty far but no finish 😢
@@JKGearandGadgets I would still call that a finish!! You came home in one piece!!!
I have been waiting for this video and look forward to everything you upload from Hamers!
awesome Jeep, great build. Thanks
Excited, I have been waiting for this video!
Glad to see you guys are bringing entertainment back
Great job! Followed you guys on race day!
Awesome stuff. Cant wait to see the race vids. You guys built a great rig!
Man I watched you rooted for you cheered you on I enjoyed watching an can’t wait to see you do more
Awesome video. What kind of lights are those that you are using as headlights?
Fun, memorable event I'm sure.... 🙂Nice and impressive you completed the course!!
Great job! I enjoyed the build series and then making ot to KOH💪💪💪
That’s the greatest pond digger I’ve ever seen
I can sit and watch hours of Baja footage
I would watch the long video!!!👍🏼
Awesome video! Congratulations on making the race first time around. #croclife
Congratulations on a first year finish!! That’s a major feat!! Silly question! What brand are those triangle gear bags in rear? I had a cheap set but they didn’t hold up. Thanks in advance, and again congratulations, can’t wait for more footage!!

Great Job jeep looks awesome and you all did great work at the hammers.
Congrats - thanks for sharing your KOH journey! You guys did an awesome job and the Jeep looked strong.
I’ll watch any & all videos no matter how short or long … but I am your mother 😂😂
Hay was just wondering if you brought your bodie Mike with you.
Congratulations! What an awesome rig
Saw you out there bro. You were rippin'!
You are right i run the auttro mt they have a new tire the auttro mts i am going to try them Love the channel keep up the good work
I would love to watch the race video. I work 12 hr shifts with some nights nothing todo other then watch TH-cam.
Full race mate, it will give us a little bit of what you guys went through. While you guys were out there getting beat up I'll be sitting on the couch with a beer and pizza 😂😂😂
Next obstacle should be, can it survive 5 years in Maine as a year round daily driver.
Show it all!
Maybe make it a series of videos… mostly unedited with voiceover..
I want to see the critical thinking and working on the Jeep pre and after the race etc.
How the shoulder hold up
Just add a little footage to the end of other videos over the next month or so
Good tires have you ever tried the auttro tires i run them and i love them
Yes i run the Green label Trail blade boss on my 4 Door, they work really well! Its hard to find a good tire for KOH as there are just so many variables.

Nitto has more wins and finishes then any other tire in KOH... cant go wrong with them u less you get a sponsorship for another brand and they are free to you 💯
Whats causing drivers to go through tires many tires???
Where’s Cassie these days?? I miss seeing her on the channel doing builds in yoga pants!
hi ben, where can i buy those half doors you got ?
They are Bestop Core Doors, unfortunately they are discontinued now so you would have to look for a used set. They are pretty pricey but nice doors. Motobilt also has a nice set of aluminum doors for the JK now.
Let’s see…….How many spares to take?…..Well…..ya know !!!!……We are nobodies !!!…..LOL
Soooo NOW you wanna talk about other Ultra 4 races !!!!!…….LOL…..Love ya dude !!!!
would be good to hear a mix of the jeep and you narrating as you go round , awesome effort too, just finishing that event in a home built rig is something to be very proud of 👍👍🤌
The whole race footage. Next time can we get your name? It was hard trying to watch for just the number.
We wanna see hammer girls!
What engine and trans are you runnin in the jeep
LS3 525 GM hotcam crate with a ReidTH400, reverse manual valve body, 3400 Stall, Atlas 3.8, worked really well in the rocks slow in low, and pretty dang quick in high
Show us all you can. Reasonably anyway. Cut the 8 to 4? Try to highlight YOUR moments from the race
Are you running auttro tire's at the king of the hammer's
Nitto trail grapplers
How did your arm hold up??
Pretty good! The hans device put a lot of pressure on my shoulder and left some bruising but all is well! The jeep was really sturdy and well dampened, strapped in and was good to go!
Shit man I’m really old I don’t have eight hours to spare but I’m sure other people would like to see it
Nice try I guess if there is one thing I want to see is what worked and what didn’t and what broke.
An 8 hour video will be way too long and I don’t feel will get the views
You made us all very PROUD! Great job guys!
