- Get 67% off or more on the Kove Split Speaker here: koveaudio.com/gp73 Code GP73 (works site wide). Today our 100 hp power wheels Barbie jeep gets long travel suspension. Ethan custom fabricated some (way overkilled) extended A arms and extended the axles to make this all possible. On top of the long travel suspension, we also added proper four wheeler wheels and tires for the ultimate off-road grip. This is the best Colonel Senders has ever driven. We went from 7 inches of travel to around 10! We painted and installed the shocks, and it's looking sweet.
The traction increase is pretty big, and the jumps have improved by a lot. Now we can really feel how different of a machine it is. Landing after a jump is now a whole different deal. The power steering makes it buttery smooth to handle. It's really amazing to see what proper steering geometry can do.
This beast is unstoppable. Looks like it is time for a new full send video! We'll be traveling to a professional off-road racing track, so make sure to stay tuned and subscribe!

Y’all should go into business with powers wheels and make an adult line for these to be mass produced. N sold to these adults like myself who would love to purchase one of these
Dude I've been seeing those everywhere. I think I even have one.
My thought too. That looks too much fun to be had alone.
I myself would like to purchase one of these and willing to pay any price
You could mount a power wheels body over the top of a Polaris Ace.
The absolute goon shit I'd be doing in that thing
Hands down my favorite build. It was so cool how you made the tanks out of street signs.
awesome man! Glad you like it!
I agree with this
my fav is still the odyssey. I've always wanted an odyssey or a pilot fl400. but the colonel is a close second.
He looks like mark zuckerburg
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo would you ever consider doing this for someone that is in a wheelchair I myself am in a wheelchair and did cool stuff on the daily and now I can't do nothing anymore because a life of fun is not for people in wheelchairs but this could be a maybe because of the hand controls I think this would be so cool to have just to be able to have some fun again in life if you can awesome if you can awesome as well yall guys have a wonderful blessed day if you would like to talk to me just shoot me a message it would be enough just to hear from yall guys your toys are amazing keep up the awesome outside of the box thinking
I love how non of these are car video but I learn soo much.
They are fabrication videos but yeah
My entire senior project is based on the Barbie mustang and I’m getting/learning everything from them
This. Thing. Is. A. Monster. It sounds good, looks good and probably smells good.
Reminds me of a girl I dated in college
Wonder if it tastes good🤔😂
93+ octane I inhale that exhaust lmfao
This. Comment. Is. Annoying.
I want it
That wheel/tire combo is super clean on this! Love me some “steelies”!
I love watching Ethan problem solve. As an engineer myself, I can really respect his ability to design, fabricate, then build these incredible projects. Combine that with Edwin's amazing video and editing skills, you get content that is absolutely worth watching, literally every time! Watching you guys shred makes me want to come there and hang out with you guys! Love the videos, thanks for doing what you guys do!
7:00 - y'all should get a powder coat gun (and a craigslist oven). mak'em, spray'em, and bakem!
Exactly , I bought one a few years ago and it’s so nice just not dealing with paint and drying time. Spend the time to prep it properly .
Steel-It is superior to powder coating, and comes in bombs. 😉
@@DetroitMicroSound And you can weld it!
@@theyeetus1428 Yup! It's purpose engineered specifically for all the fun stuff GHPC builds!!!!!!!
@@theyeetus1428 I'll keep mentioning it until somebody with GHPC hears me. 😉 I can almost guarantee Steel-It would be interested in sponsorship....
The video editing is really good these days. It just hit me how far you guys have come. I've been here since your third or fourth video, and it's awesome to see the progress! I'm stoked about the electric tank build too.
I'm still waiting on a how-to plumb my house video from y'all. Instead, i get these stupid crazy builds that are freaking amazing!
Pex dude. But with the $100 compression pliers, not the cheap, side pinch rings.
Suprise suprise a plumbing company doesn't even do plumbing
I can hear the mechanic in the background screaming to use a brass hammer on that axle.
That was definitely my least favorite part of this otherwise great video lol.
Maaaaaan It hurts just watching 😅
Amazing build tho just chop the tip and move on
Yep, that was painful to watch, it was a no from me.
he was hammering on the sleeve that he made
This is insane! I thought those last wheels couldn’t be topped with the cool rims but this looks even sicker. Hopefully oneday you guys find a gsxr1300 hayabusa engine laying around one day 😂 I really wanna see one in a power wheels
Turbo Hayabusa 😈
@@elijahherman oof that would be insane! But I don’t know how you would manage to fit it in a power wheels but I said the same about their previous projects and they make it work some how lol
14:45 OMG 😲 I can't believe I've never thought of this! Thankyou sooooo much! Great project, loved following it!
Glad you liked it!
Heating an beating the interference fit on rear axals prolly helped break them.
The only way I've ever had success extending or shortening axles is grinding both ends of the work piece to a point. On a known straight valley like a piece of angel iron and fill the bevels with weld. I did it to my dune buggy been driving it for 10 years hasn't failed yet. Have to be careful not to over heat so weld rotate weld cool and repeat. Slow but effective.
Id say they do what ypu just mentioned plus the sleeve over top of just to beef it up some more
Llllllllllllllllllll
Your content stands out as always of course, but more obvious is the respect you have for one another. You seem like the nicest of people. It's such a pleasure to watch you three interact.
Big hi from Tasmania.
The best thing about your videos is how inspiring they are! The second best is how educational they are. Good work! You nailed this one!
The sleeves you made for the front driveshafts are probably stronger than the solid shafts because of its larger diameter. Prop shafts are often hollow because the meat in the middle doesn't really do much in torsion. It's more effective to have larger diameter but hollow shaft. Excellent! 🤙
There are many TH-camrs that try to achieve this level of build greatness. The Colonel just sets the bar out of reach.
As a retired Plumber , I love this page.
You can actually see how much more stable it is, especially when landing a jump. Awesome job! Be safe:)
Damn she looks like she's riding so much smoother. That helmet cam footage barely shuddered at all compared to the old setup. Great stuff!
This is the build that you should start selling an Mass producing this thing is so f****** sick. I'd buy a couple
Hell yes i would too! Some quick drive around the neighborhood and weekend off-roads would be a lot more fun!
Yes
Probably 15k in this or more
@@gsppuffer plus a ton of labor and custom parts
Found this today, love the road signs under panels. Reminds me of my old jeep commando I had in high school, had NO XING floorboards.
Grind Hard Plumbing Co. A few guys with a well thought out plan, Building toys the rest of the world only talks about, and doing it without a multi-million dollar shop, a backroom full of nerdy engineers or an endless corporate sponsored budget. These guys represent the true American spirit. Well done gentlemen. I hope one day to have the pleasure of shaking your hands
Swap the springs from back to front! And make those axles way beefier than ya need so ya dont have to worry about harnessing that ktm power house of a motor ya got there!
Finally back to basics, the good old GHP videos. Building, tech talk and just a small send at the end. Best video in months.
I watch Cars & Cameras because I've been waiting for one of their builds to disintegrate around them. I watch your crew because I was a master craftsmen & contractor for 35 years. There is getting something running, and then there is running with the big dogs.
It'll be fine :)
21 min of the best series in the world
next time you sleeve axles you should freeze the axle along with heating the sleeve ao it slides in even easier
When you guys gonna do a truck? that's somthin I've been waiting for.
we have plans, believe me
Yes, i'm waiting for a nice lifted 4X4 build by you guys. Was in oregon the other day!
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo Please build the willys in the background!
They got a taco
What about a truck to haul the other ones and get it street legal
Excellent! From the video/sound production to the machining, building and riding. You guys are next level!
Welds, grinds, paints and installs with bare hands.. now that's a real man! Lol
This build is definitely my favorite. It's perfect in every single way, wish I could build something so magnificent.
>absolutely gargantuan leaps in a power wheels on steroids
"I wonder why the axles broke lmao"
"It's your fuel map. It's got a nasty hole." Hahaha. I really wish you'd fix it. I'm jealous there will only ever be one Colonel Senders.
I remember these guys sticking 'just' an engine into one of these toy cars.. I'll admit, I wasn't watching for a while, but shit got out of hand while I was gone and I love it, nice to come back
Man, the new suspension just ATE that big jump. Might be time to start thinking about some kind of roll hoop for this thing... I have a feeling the send is only getting bigger from here!
Freeze the axels then they would slide easier into the hot sleeve :) this is my favorite build
Would love to see these ripping at the dunes with some paddles
Side note, it’s honestly truly amazing how much this channel has grown. I mean I remember the Barbie cart and how simple it was and now look and the project you have made! It’s like out of a cartoon!
Awesome explanation of the scrub radius , thanks 😊 👍 💯💯COLONEL SENDERS. LONGTRAVEL !!!!!
Seeing the mountain havoc shirt I knew exactly where the "professional course" was going to be. Hell yeah, get some!
Edwin, mad skills with the drone. Love yer show.
Great job on the long arm. Looks way easier to control! I can only imagine the difference in the feel! Now you need to add a low range to the 4wd so you can tow your camp trailer up mountains on your next overlanding trip.
Fckn A Boys !!!! cant wait to see you send it!!!! Again!!!!! Pretty wicked flying at the end too!
Bro I haven't watched you in a while gald to see you're still posting good content
you’re
we missed you man!
Awesome vid! Are you guys planning on sending the camaro, odessy and senders at the sand dunes at all?
for sure! we have a lot of plans/locations/projects coming soon
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo awesome
I would love to just hang out in your shop and watch you work. Wouldn’t say a word, just enjoy your mind and talents in action. :)
Been here since the og barbie jeep and 17 thousand subscribers it’s crazy how far you guys have come
I wish you could mass produce this beast I would give my right eye to get one!
Watching this just makes me want to build something similar
I love the colonel. What an absolute beast of a machine.
The spring compressor, brilliant, Thanks!
You know it's dry when it takes an hour for the dust to settle.
Also I NEED more on the electric tank!
Only thing I'd change is put a solid cylinder inside the void area of the shaft and drill holes and weld that area aswell
Ethan's fabricating and understanding of suspension is getting really good. Despite the broken axle lol. This was already the coolest thing you guys have built and it just keeps getting better. Hopefully someday you'll figure out a way to lower the gearing.
are u selling that?
First...from Netherlands
yewwwww our European friends are on it today!
@@GrindHardPlumbingCo always... really like your builds and video's.
You could race these like toboggans, basically a big downhill slope with tight heavily banked turns that you could almost go full throttle through.
That’s prolly my favorite build from this channel!
To make it the ultimate cool it needs a roll cage around the cockpit with 4 point harness. Just my 2 cents, but never the less it’s awesome!
Your experience paid off. Now you just build it and shred it with the confidence it won't break
This is Col. Senders theme music! 🤘
Yeah, the Colonel lives again, and in magnificent form. Couldn't believe the suspension travel in that first major jump, you sure you want to soften the back end?
It still baffles me that senders has more hp than my project car I’m working on haha, y’all never cease to amaze me with your builds keep up the good work y’all 👍🏻
thanks man! It's definitely one of our favorite builds
is it a miata? lol
@@mikelakowski8120 ae86 with the tiny little carbureted engine in it, makes 85hp stock 🤣🤣
@@zachariah6003 that was my 2nd guess 😂 how much hp it got now?
@@mikelakowski8120 i spent most of my money just getting it running and driving haha, it’s got a wieber carb on it now tho so maybe 90 idk tho, I’m trying to save up and find a 4age tho so fingers crossed
This is cooler than any actual Jeep I've ever seen.
On bearing/bushing install...heat the receiver...freeze the intruder. Simple and easy.
10:59 Tip is to keep the part thats getting knocked into the shaft in dry ice so the metal shrinks so it goes in easier.
I have so much admiration for Ethan and his capacity for fabrication and creativity. I hope to one day have just a quarter of his abilities. Bravo!
thanks man!
Its a masterpiece now, just amazing.
It's not just super duper overkill. It's super duper cool! 😎
I still love the video where u guys sent the go kart and found the wheelie bar🤣🤣
VERY HAPPY I found this channel. Shout out to Edwin Olding for that. These rigs are insane. 🔥🔥💯🍻
Everything about this video is bad ass.. including the drone footage....
This is the coolest machine on the internet, I wouldn't be surprised if an OEM started making something like it. It's gotten so serious at this point that I think a roll hoop of some kind might be a good idea.
Just a note.... if you heat the sleeve and freeze the axle, it adds extra clearance. Used to do that trick for installing cylinder liners. You gotta be damn quick.
That is sick. Also the best name ive heard yet for a offroad vehicle. Colonel Senders 🤣
I'd have to say Ethan is probably by far the most capable and creative guy on TH-cam! It always amazes me how talented you are! Keep up the awesome work.. and Edwin kills it too with the cinematic stuff!
thanks man!
It looks soooo much better
I think he likes this the best of all power wheels builds.
They are refining their builds/frames/etc
Great explanation of scrub radius
Hands down, this was the best thing that happened in 2020
that thing is a ripper guys...by far my fav build on youtube
Build yourself a removable bolt on cage just like one of them small 50s drag cages for your extreme stuff LOL it just seems like you might be in the air more often now
Well done Colonel Senders never looked better.
I’ve seen a lot of these homemade atv’s n I have to say that your Jeep is the best one out there!!! Good work!!
Dang ! You've got fabulous fabrication skills ! And I loved the getto spring compressor . Good work guys !
This has to be my favorite build you guys have done, so cool.
This seems like the most unnecessarily complex way to build a high powered quad, but I love it. Awesome work.
My favourite build so far . Such a fantastic build great video as always 👍👍👍✌️
This is by far the most awesome build ever! There's no other builder on TH-cam that even comes close to GHPC! Keep up the great work guys and thank you for always giving us such awesome content!
That song at the end is amazing and I need the source now
Carvings - flashes from the red sun
ol mates getting pretty good at the fpv flying 🤙
Can’t wait to see more with this beast.
Idea for a new project, beef up one of the 6 wheeler power wheels. :)
that'd be cool!
Your video's/filming/editing/music is awesome. Hats off to you both. And that machine....wow
Daaaaaamn she rips! What a pay off. Awesome!!
This is probably the first youtube video I have EVER seen that has ZERO dislikes. Hopefully it stays that way. You guys make awesome content!!
control arm building was my favourite part :) big thumbs up guys love your work. ...................
am taking it back the driving was my favourite part :) wooow
Neat rope trick with those coil springs
