Remember. Its your channel but every time I Hear SOMEONE ELSE say something i HEAR it. We enjoy hearing you bs ing with people. If someone wants to try to explain something or try to do something. By all means. Let them. Lol. Its content. And who knows. They might mess up and create content Haha. Keep it coming brother!
It has finally come full circle, I remember when you went to Cleetus's shop to dingleberry hone the 5.3L LS for your miata rebuild. Now he has come to you for a drift boi upgrade, the world is healing
Dude I swear. Every time cleeter makes/participates in a video with another TH-camr, regardless of the topic of the video/channel it’s always amazing. He’s such an aura of just... content I guess. It’s pretty magical.
I think it's that you know Cleet has the bigger platform (usually). But he never acts like the big YTr coming to do the smaller channel a favor. No DBag vibes.
@@MikeKraemer87 I've often wondered what Ben does to afford with house with a full garage. Need to get Ben on "a beer with" or vinwikki, I want some back story into Taylor's unsung hero friend.
Man, this brings me back to 2010-2011 where we used to piece together and build all this stuff ourselves. Most of these drift car parts were developed in house by angle crazed twenty year olds with no money. 🤣 Its crazy how far it’s come. These kits look like such a time saver and much less if a headache to fix or maintain. Absolutely awesome. 😎
The amount of stoked that I am because YOU'RE building the car for Garrett is so much I cannot even think properly. He will be so happy and able to learn probably faster than most with this setup
I have a wilwood handbrake calliper setup identical to this. Can be very hard to bleed properly. Shouldn't have to pump it like that however. Should lock perfectly with one pull. Should be solid. I use 0.625 master cylinder with a shorter leaver. I know 0.7 works well too. When I bleed mine I remove one bolt from the calliper to the bracket, rotate calliper so its as vertical as possible and then bleed (so nipple is at the top). Still enough contact with disk when you do that. Also jack the rear of the car as high (keep front of car on ground) as you can to ensure bleed nipple is highest point of the system. Works very very well. Locks easily in every scenario.
This was awesome! Two of my favourite & fun channels collab'ing! and turning a cleetvette into a drift-vette! Just like when I first started watching Taylor's channel! Awesome!
To remove a steering wheel without a puller using an air hammer: Break nut loose and leave threaded half way on column. Have a buddy pull up on steering wheel. Use an air hammer with a blunt point on the column (center of the nut) for a couple seconds. Done!
Speaking of your old drift vette... Didn't you do a give-a-way with it? Do you know if the new owner drifts it or not? Would be kinda cool to buy that back and slay the Freedom Factory alongside Cleetus.
Steering Wheel Removal tip, Put the nut back on have your Buddy sit in the Drivers seat pulling on on the steering wheel and smack the nut with a hammer.
Also, A neat little trick when pulling off steering wheels, Put you knees up pushing them towards you, Have the centre nutt still on but backed off abit, and then hit the nutt with a hammer (dead blow works best) and they usually pop nice and easilly :)
Best sports car ever made. 10-15 years it will be really hard to find nice road cars bc they're so easy to work on and so powerful that everyone is hacking them up for various types of track cars. From drifting to drag, the C5 absolutely does it all.
This what I really like to see a big time TH-camr who collaborates with all types of other TH-camrs regardless of how know that they are some people get big in the game and forget where they came from and become boujee you know
To be honest man the wheels actually look really good. I like it. Gives it a bit of class. I know RX7 guys will hate me for saying this but it gives it FD vibes.
I just use a bearing puller with the two arms to clamp anywhere you can on the wheel. Or you can fab up a plate to put on the front and back of wheel to sandwich it
Just a FYI for anyone watching, if you're having trouble getting a wheel off or you can't use a puller on it...use heat! 10 seconds with a MAPP gas torch and bingo, she's off. Just a little addition, if you're working on older cars, use heat on EVERYTHING metal. Any nut that seems a bit rusty or you're worried about stripping threads etc, go guy yourself a $20 MAPP torch (yellow bottle, propane and putane aren't hot enough IMO) and hit that shit for 20-30 seconds. You don't have to get anything red hot or risk burning things down. Don't be afraid of the fire, the fire is your friend.
Take an air hammer and give some pops on the steering shaft while pulling on the wheel. Knees into the bottom, one hand on the top, buzz the shaft with the air hammer, bam done.
Hopefully Cleetus blows you up in his video, and this starts really blowing your channel up. I don't think that you should change a thing, your channel is awesome as it is, but a few hundred thousand more subscribers could be great for you! PS Cleetus has probably pulled the suspension off of C5 more then anyone with all of the work done on Leeroy.
If Cleet and James both get drift cars, when does Taylor get a drag car?
That's what his RCSB truck is for
Or a side by side
he said he's going to put twin turbos on that green truck
Exactly! Time for Taylor to build a drag car with Cleetus!
He could do rocky mountain race week in the green truck!
“they come pre-ls swapped” - Taylor Ray, 2020
I was just gonna comment this, good shit haha
Good lord..
Weve been waiting on this
Good shirt idea for a collaboration of shop merch for Taylor and cleetus

That’s fucking funny omg
It has finally come full circle, I remember when you went to Cleetus's shop to dingleberry hone the 5.3L LS for your miata rebuild. Now he has come to you for a drift boi upgrade, the world is healing
Gotta work both ways.cant be one way now
Dude I swear. Every time cleeter makes/participates in a video with another TH-camr, regardless of the topic of the video/channel it’s always amazing. He’s such an aura of just... content I guess. It’s pretty magical.

You guys remember when Cleet had DankWheelie do circle wheelies around the C7?
1 min in and this is just so AWESOME! Cleetus and Taylor building a drift car is like a dream come true!
same, love this collaboration
Uuuuuntil Cleeter bails! I was hoping to see Taylor giving Cleeter a Tig Tune-up!!
I said out loud "well, I wasnt expecting this....ok then."
@@SeattleMK2GLI Still the most actual work he has done on a car in a long time.
“Stuff gets done so much faster when you have a second person”
Ben: what about me :(
Ben is usually working on his own business
I don’t believe Ben helps Taylor because he’s working on his own car or other stuff.
Ben helps out for sure, but he has a business. I believe he buys Miatas and parts them out or something like that.
@@MikeKraemer87 I've often wondered what Ben does to afford with house with a full garage. Need to get Ben on "a beer with" or vinwikki, I want some back story into Taylor's unsung hero friend.
Hes got a miata breaking/part out business called 'bens used miata parts'...
Man, this brings me back to 2010-2011 where we used to piece together and build all this stuff ourselves. Most of these drift car parts were developed in house by angle crazed twenty year olds with no money. 🤣 Its crazy how far it’s come.

How did Sandy like having a giraffe around the shop?
She made an appearance in Cleetus vid and seemed to like him
😂😂
8:34 That stretched brake line thoe....
You Are A Stud! Helping Cleetus do this for a Competition, you are involved in? Awesome! Excellent Sportsmanship!
The amount of stoked that I am because YOU'RE building the car for Garrett is so much I cannot even think properly. He will be so happy and able to learn probably faster than most with this setup
That moment you have two car youtubers you really enjoy start working together. Can't not love this enough.
Let’s go my 2 favorite TH-camrs !!!!!
Taylor ray doing gods work

Cleetus, and Sandy yelling in the background on the intro. Perfect
All shop vids require sandy’s commentary
Dude, you know you're doing it right when cleet is in your shop!
I’ve been waiting for cleetus to build a real drift car for so long and it’s even more amazing that he’s having you help him with the build. So dope.
Ol cleeter & Taylor Ray ! What a combo. I could honestly watch collaborations like this everyday.
Its funny, with the Giraffe there, you had to get the lift head level.
He also "killed it" when he drove the 350Z...
whomp whomp:D
💀
When he said “thanks for watching, thanks for subscribing.” You could see Cleeter’s face in the background,
he wanted to say “Do It For Dale.”
When he rodknocks that LS due to no oiling upgrades “hey Texas speed, ima need a dry sump 427”
previous owner did that and more.....
So cool you are working with Cleet on this! Immediate thumbs up
This is awesome! I think Taylor is the best Drifter/TH-camr on earth. The dude does his own wrenching with minimal sponsorship. Massive respect ✊!
Not even kidding Taylor is probably one of the coolest dudes ive ever seen
I love the community that these car channels have. The more cross over the better.
Man, I've never been so stoked to see my 2 favs working on ya Boi Donnie . Keep the collab's coming pleeeeease!
1:41 Sandy chilling out with Taylor & Cleet !!
Love how you and cleet divided up the content in your videos.
One of the best collabs
The Red, White, and Blue theme always looking sick!
Yessss FDF 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦👍👍👍 freedom machine with maple syrup touches!
Awesome you took over the build. Cleetus so lucky to have a friend like you to set him up perfect. This gonna be rad.
My two favorite channels and you now work together. That is Awesome! Love America!!!
She looks killer!! Great job Taylor cant wait to see her shred.
I lost it at "Pre-Ls swapped" freaking fantastic.
Hell..Yea...Brother...Cleetus is in the house!!
Watching this makes me miss the vette even more :(
I know right 😭😭😭
Guarantee it makes him miss it as well
This was awesome! Two of my favourite & fun channels collab'ing! and turning a cleetvette into a drift-vette! Just like when I first started watching Taylor's channel! Awesome!
I miss the old drift vette! Love the LS Miata but the vette was special
To remove a steering wheel without a puller using an air hammer:
Break nut loose and leave threaded half way on column.
Have a buddy pull up on steering wheel.
Use an air hammer with a blunt point on the column (center of the nut) for a couple seconds.
Done!
Anyone else miss Taylors old C5 drift car??? I can tell he puts his passion into Cleetus's car as if it was his.
thank you Taylor for hooking up our boy Cleetus!
Been watching Taylor since the start and its crazy how far your skills as a car builder have come.
So happy your doing this with Cleetus - Hoping it finally gets you the full on Sponsor you deserve and have Earned!!!!!!
Those wheels are on point! Good work guys love it.
Love you guys working together literally and just video colab wise, thanks for the content as always.
This has to be one of my favorite collaborations on TH-cam! Hell yeah Taylor!
Stoked to see that bad boy in action Saturday
Speaking of your old drift vette... Didn't you do a give-a-way with it? Do you know if the new owner drifts it or not? Would be kinda cool to buy that back and slay the Freedom Factory alongside Cleetus.
Steering Wheel Removal tip, Put the nut back on have your Buddy sit in the Drivers seat pulling on on the steering wheel and smack the nut with a hammer.
These are the best crossovers on TH-cam
2 of my 3 most favorite car youtubers in 1 vid building a drift car. Yesss!!!! Nice work guys!!!
Also, A neat little trick when pulling off steering wheels, Put you knees up pushing them towards you, Have the centre nutt still on but backed off abit, and then hit the nutt with a hammer (dead blow works best) and they usually pop nice and easilly :)
Cleetus literally takes apart a car every other day so you know your boy can crank a wrench lol.
mad props to Cleet. shows up NO camera in hand to his buddies place.
So cool to see you driftin out another corvette. The corvette videos are what drew me in, man.
Cant wait to see you guys at the FF!!!
Awesome to see the suspension kit you helped design again.
Taylor.....made my night.
Thank you, Taylor. I’m 16 and guiding a 240 and now I fell in love with C5s
Best sports car ever made. 10-15 years it will be really hard to find nice road cars bc they're so easy to work on and so powerful that everyone is hacking them up for various types of track cars. From drifting to drag, the C5 absolutely does it all.
I was so waiting for that vid to drop! I'm so excited for cleetus to get into drifting for real!
Another kick ass colab. Excited to see where this build goes. Hopefully some drift events at the freedom factory! Keep up the great builds
Awesome Taylor. Big love to Cleet for farming out this to someone who can give you a good start.
Best friggin collab ever we want more !! Keep it up with the amazing content you're killing it my man 🔥
Nice to see Cleet at your shop.
All right! Gettin Cleetis all hooked up to shrewd in Donnie! He’ll do good!
You hooked ole Cleeter up! I love the wheels! Now it's a classy ride that rips!! :)
I really have no idea how you only have 400k subs...literally blows my mind!
And why cleet has that much just by keeping his foot flat to the floors 🤣🤣
@@ameirabbden5290 Well one use to work for 1320 media
This what I really like to see a big time TH-camr who collaborates with all types of other TH-camrs regardless of how know that they are some people get big in the game and forget where they came from and become boujee you know
Cleetus is the king of helping out the little guys. Grade A+X10 dude. He’s awesome.
Agree with you on the interior.
I get the function over form and budget side of things but that doesn't mean it needs to look like absolute rubbish!
To be honest man the wheels actually look really good. I like it. Gives it a bit of class. I know RX7 guys will hate me for saying this but it gives it FD vibes.
Get Ben in on this!
Hell H’Yea!!!
Ive driven 2 c5 corvettes and one c6 and damn they are so good. 😍
Nice to see a vette on the channel again ☺️
Great episode. Loved seeing Sandy loved Cleets channel. Good stuff.
One pulls on the wheel, and one smacks the nut you put on with a deadblow. Pop right off every time.
The wheels look mint on it!! Great job all around Taylor! Can't wait to see you guys drift together!!
Wow. That's an angle! And I don't get the wheel problem guys. I love them! And that 3 color setup is also sick! Dutch regards, Nico
hell yeah, now you need another vett too, Taylor. I miss the green one
Two of the best car TH-camrs teaming up! It’s a beautiful thing.
Hell yeah brother! Hope you all are having a great day!
Taylor is such an awesome dude! Super bubbly!
“Last minute wheels” look damn good to me
Gotta love a fast working knowledgeable mechanic hell yeah brother cleeter
Two of the best TH-cam's
This is going to be a sick series.. drift dad meets cleetus
That would be EPIC seeing Donnie drift with Unicorn🤯😎🇺🇸🦅💪
I just use a bearing puller with the two arms to clamp anywhere you can on the wheel. Or you can fab up a plate to put on the front and back of wheel to sandwich it

Someone said Taylor looks like Seth Rogen and I can’t unsee it
Wow you’re right! Now I can’t unsee it either! Arrgggg!
anybody else like the video before it starts playing? I do on all of his videos
Like before watching club! :)
Same for him cleetus, PFI fasterproms, boostedboiz, demolition ranch, off the ranch, ECT. lol
No i wait until i finish to see if he has threaded any bolt's with an impact before making my decision..
I do too, same with Cleets channel
Every damn time 😂
i like that hand break install a lot
Take an air hammer and give some pops on the steering shaft while pulling on the wheel. Knees into the bottom, one hand on the top, buzz the shaft with the air hammer, bam done.
Taylor Google the two hammer method to remove a steering wheel. It's so easy to remove a wheel you'll be amazed. Super simple and fast!
you seem like the coolest dude ever
Hopefully Cleetus blows you up in his video, and this starts really blowing your channel up. I don't think that you should change a thing, your channel is awesome as it is, but a few hundred thousand more subscribers could be great for you! PS Cleetus has probably pulled the suspension off of C5 more then anyone with all of the work done on Leeroy.
So amped to see you doing this project. Your voice is just excited this video. Good to see you wrenching
Taylor needs a drag car for sure!!!!.. Might as well!!
