Thank you for all your knowledge and helping share your expertise 🎉 Very awesome build from what we could not expect on the base model Jeep. Place's even the Chang Li can't go. 😎
To the point on “you don’t know until you do it” that’s the main reason I watch channels like GHPC, I love to watch how a project comes to fruition in it’s entirety, not “we’re building this cool thing” and then a finger snap and it’s done. I enjoy watching the whole entire building process including the redos or errors, whatever you want to call them.
Same dude. I wish Westen Champlin would do that. He does all these builds and barely shows the process. Kudos to Ethan for being the man with ALL the fab skills.
@ yup and I end up not watching some of the videos just because they don’t include the best part. Obviously the best part for them is the end result but that’s not always the best experience for the viewer just imho
Im so proud of Grind hard. Its a new year, and they finally decided to take the big step of putting water in the plasma table. So proud of you guys no longer operating a fire hazzard. hahaha
No doubt about it Dave is the goat of fourlink suspension. He's been doing it a long time and made every mistake and learned what works and what doesn't. Would love to work with him for just one week to absorb as much as I could. I've watched every video that he and you guys have put out.
I don't why but 18:04 looks like an art piece. There is just something so pleasing to the eye about either the way its filmed or Ethans fantastic fabrictation.
I LOVE those new safety glasses Ethan. AWESOME work Ethan and Dave. There are some real Jeeps that wish they had 12 and 14 inches of flex respectively.
Those new glasses are mint! Love the music that went along with them 😁. I don't fabricate or build anything but I find your videos entertaining and very informative. It's great to watch Masters at work. 🙌
Have you considered using cv joints on your driveshafts to the transfer case and diffs? You wouldn't lose the horsepower you would with u-joints and it would solve vibration concerns. Beautiful work fellas.
It's really bad to breath in the tungsten dust. Also some tungsten rods are radiated and breathing that dust is of course even worse. That's why they have those fancy encapsulated grinders. I built my own version, which is a cheap bench grinder with a fitting for a shop vac. I use a cordless drill to spin the rod against a cheap diamond grinding disc that I simply bolted on the outside of the right grindstone. Works a treat and you can still use it as a bench grinder.
@@PennerFab Tungsten is a heavy metal. Outside of your body, no harm done. But getting heavy metals into your system is a different ballgame all together. They bind in tissue and remains in the body, causing a whole range of problems including cancer.
Well, that's a general common sense with grinding any metals. Respiratory protection is important no matter what you're grinding or sanding or painting. I was mostly pointing out the only Thoriated toungston is mildly radiated.
@@PennerFab And that is correct. Inhaling thoriated tungsten is a definite death sentence over time. But I would 100% rather inhale steel grinding dust than tungsten, lead or mercury.
Honestly, once you use the tungsten grinder, you will absolutely prefer it. They’re cheap and do an excellent job at grinding the tungsten at any preferred angle leaving perfect stations and in a professional setting it is key but for novice welders, carry-on.
I've been watching Dave at least as long as you guys (when Fred brought him on Dirt Everyday or I have vague memories of Freiburger bringing him on, and probably read his articles before then, and I am so glad to see you guys working together!
Beauty. Daves builds look so nonchalant while doing it, but turn out looking so amazing. An understated builder. Still, an hour vid, sorry I cant do it. Thanks for the content though. "We'll have 8 across the country!", ha ha, so true.
Can I please start a vote for RC control of this mini crawler....!? Out of every build you guys have done, this one deserves that option if ever there was a reason to have it.
How did I get the notification to watch this, which I did right away, and in 45minutes of its release there was 56k views insane been a follower for years and never get tired of your builds
Rotating the pumpkin will definitely work… Did a flip on a rear end once just for fun, and the truck was a 3 speed in reverse lol. Meaning the whole rear axle was installed upside down lol. Reverse gear was one speed forward, and drive was 3 speeds in reverse lol. It was a derby truck 🤣
Not important for this application but high pinion on a rear axle means the pinion is pulling the ring, rather than pushing it. Much less strong that way. That's OK when all you're moving is a 3/5ths scale mini jeep.
I was thinking the same....although I've never busted a pinion, I was always told they are a weak point when stressed in reverse. Not like they're putting 300 horsepower to it though....
@@thegroundhurts yeah this is just conversation for mutual learning not an argument, on a deliberately built high pinion rear axle the outboard pinion bearing will be larger to take the thrust load and the bevel will be cut to minimize the gears pushing each other apart and minimize noise with the teeth riding on that side of each other (vs. riding on the "back" of the teeth). still doesn't matter on this application I think we all agree.
So just a little heads up on your flipped diff in the axle, yes you can do it, but the pinion bearings will not get oil like they normal do and will eventually starve and seize and on a ring and pinion you have two sides to the gear teeth, the drive and coast side, in low pinion the drive side is what's being contacted when going forward, now that you've flipped it the coast side will be taking the force going forward which is weaker and will break eventually. Just a heads up, I've built 100s of axles and used to compete in rock crawling. Good news is when they blow up you can invest in high pinion third members :)
I with it flipped and rotating the opposite direction would it not be running on the correct side of the tooth? But the lube is a thing. I commented above about if the t-case has a pump it also will not lube the input bearing since it is going backwards.
@jerrickmiller8128 no the pinion and ring gear still engage the same but now reversed when going forward so the coast side is not drive and drive is coast. high pinion gears are reverse cut for that reason
From what I could tell when you flipped the rear differential cover the fill hole was below the center line so it would be now above the center line making it hold more when filling until it runs out and that’s what you suggested would be best. So if I am right then it should work out great! 👍 ❤
HELL YEAH 🤘ADS FTW!! Sorry for yelling but those are hands down the best shocks I have ever run🤙suffice it to say but this little rig is going to be a ripper!!
You must have not searched very hard on TH-cam because I made a video specifically on atv motors and samurai axles, as well flipping the diffs and what you need to do.
Heck yes. Thanks for letting me play Jeep!
Thank you for all your knowledge and helping share your expertise 🎉 Very awesome build from what we could not expect on the base model Jeep. Place's even the Chang Li can't go. 😎
They should be thanking you.
I hope to see more with the ghpc guys! Love both of your work and videos!
Not going to lie… This might go places the Chang Li can’t even go 🤷
We got Edwin questioning the Chang li before GTA 6 lol
I miss Will
You gotta compete with ethan and make the chang li better!

Heresy!
Bruh, i need more doggo bass drops in my life and i didnt even know it😂😂 7:30
this is the problem when they make an hour of vid for 1/4 of the frame, you click past the best doggo parts lolz
So dead serious 😂❤

Dont ever question Edwin and his music.
@@davidanalyst671 this was a compliment. Not sure what you're on about.
...Dirt Everyday and Grindhard Pumbing, the union made in heaven! Please do some more collabs after this one. This is awesome stuff...
Definitely my favorite collab of all time!!
This is my favorite part of Fridays! A new hour long GHPC video is exactly what the plumber ordered!!
awesome editing at 7:30 haha....love them doggos!
Loved the animated graphic explaining the anti-squat. Premium!
No doubt about it Dave is the goat of fourlink suspension. He's been doing it a long time and made every mistake and learned what works and what doesn't. Would love to work with him for just one week to absorb as much as I could. I've watched every video that he and you guys have put out.
props on the effort to find all the different music in the videos, definetally makes a differance on watchign the long form videos.
That and the B roll every so often really keeps you engaged for a long video like this.
an hour of video, that's what I needed to make my day happier. I'll follow you from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Man I am loving the content with @dirtheadshed! His work is amazing like the GHPC crew. I hope he comes back for more in the future!
I don't why but 18:04 looks like an art piece. There is just something so pleasing to the eye about either the way its filmed or Ethans fantastic fabrictation.
You should build a dirtbike hillclimber. Fully custom frame and all. That would be sick for your channel!
I think this is your best project yet, plus the colab with Dirthead Dave. Truly PREMIUM!
I LOVE those new safety glasses Ethan.
AWESOME work Ethan and Dave.
There are some real Jeeps that wish they had 12 and 14 inches of flex respectively.
Cant beat a 1h episode! The music are so fitting. Very good choices!
Who else has been watching this channel since the treehouse days and the first power wheels build?
6 years and still going strong!
🎉 🔥 💯
First test drive could not get here soon enough!
That cut with the bass drop and the dog singing was MINT
Prioritizing driver comfort is a first for the channel, as far as I can tell.
Those new glasses are mint! Love the music that went along with them 😁. I don't fabricate or build anything but I find your videos entertaining and very informative. It's great to watch Masters at work. 🙌
It's so cool that you guys are working with Dave, and that he is so eager to share his expertise! Hopefully he'll gain some fans from your channel!
Yet another banger and not to mention the most underrated editing on TH-cam!! Awesome video guys!
Facts!
Daddy Dave, been watching this man for almost 20 years. Awesome collaboration yall are killing it!
Is that the new guy is, he looks really familiar but I can’t place where I’ve seen him at, maybe off of one of the off road shows. But which one
Love the snowblower upgrade! Been doing this to all of mine for a few years. Turns them into a slush throwing machine!
24:58 so the grinder also classifies as a hammer 🤣
We need a Grind Hard music playlist added to the channel!
Yeah Spotify links anything
Have you considered using cv joints on your driveshafts to the transfer case and diffs? You wouldn't lose the horsepower you would with u-joints and it would solve vibration concerns. Beautiful work fellas.
I approve of the amount of grinder used in this grind hard plumbing video...... ethan is f'ing surgical with that mf'er
Got to live by the name!
I tried pulling my third member out, rotating it 180 degrees, and putting it back in. Rave reviews from my wife. Thanks GHP.
Would love to see a rather be welding Collab. This is his type of project for sure.
Yeah, that's a good call!
Watching from Brazil 🇧🇷, it's good to see you adding titles translated into Portuguese. Great video.
Can't wait for the next video of this build. This is an insane build! Love what yall do!
I really enjoy seeing Dirthead Dave on here. Looking forward to a rock crawling adventure once this is finished.
Dave is the best! Dirt everyday is the reason I got into 4 wheeling.. can’t wait to see this thing do work!
Perfect timing for these videos, I'm just starting 4 linking a samurai chassis to go under my polaris ranger body!

Only red Thoriated toungston is mildly radioactive. No specific health effects have been associated with exposure to tungsten in humans.
@@PennerFab Externally no, but as with any heavy metal, if you breath the dust in, it ain't good for ya. Google it.

04:19 looking like Steven Hyde from that 70s show with the glasses on.
Adding the wiper seals to the blower blades is a great idea! I’m going to do the same. Thank you sir. Great suspension build on the jeep too:)
Awww so nice to see you all back in this new year. Hope you all had very premium holidays❤️
Best jeep build on TH-cam!❤

A grind hard build with a fwd transaxle setup would be sweeet.
You have a gold mine of music that makes me grin many times per video.
Love the videos! But when you involved the dog in the music! 👏👌

Dave from dirt everyday!!! Haven’t seen him in like 5 years lol
Doggo mix in with tunes on 7:35 is a new banger!!, kudos boys 😎❤️🔥🤘
Those auger flapper things are pretty cool! Like apex seals for your blower!
I learned Anti-Squat today. Thank you
💡
By flipping the 3rd member, I would think about how the front pinion bearing gets oil. I know the do some modifications to grip a 9in.
22:50 I love when you guys play the OG songs!
You guys and the peck brothers have to collab with the mini jeeps
The build looking awesome but the editing is fantastic ❤❤❤
Love watching you guys work! Hope to see you at King of the Hammers this year!
Yo, that cute dog growl right before the break down in the song was perfect!

just flip the engine around and use the front output of the trans and it will be spinning the correct direction. love the build !!!

Absolutely love watching the build but this mini crawler is gna be an absolute unit😲
Bro this is one of the coolest inventions I’ve ever seen keep it up grindhard
Dave is the fab daddy!
Edwin making absolute bangers
Cool to see Dave!!👍🏻
this is one of our favorite projects so far ! LFG boys
Love the shot with the camera on the lift
Love having a grind hard vid to watch with lunch. Always the best
Oh boy here we go again! I’m sure this is going to be Banger as always from you guys!
Firstly I love this channel, and the work you guys do... I do wonder how much of the original Amazon jeep thing is actually left
Love all the builds u guys do man!
22:55 need more Akina Boy!
I love this channel for all the reasons 🎉 keep it up!!❤
