    Painting with rattle cans tip .. heat the can with hot water before using it, it makes such a huge difference in how it lays down and dries that I do it every time regardless of outside temperature (remember that the pressure drop from high pressure inside the can to outside pressure causes the paint's temperature in the spray to drop greatly) so happy that you are getting the roof fixed up, and upgrading the drive train 🙂

      What makes a bigger difference is buying a saws-all adaptor for paint cans to shake them. I don't care if you and 3 more people shake that can for an hour each, the saws all is the greatest improvement to a rattle can Earl Schieb artist job money can buy. (Who remembers him?)

    Always good to see Ed and Max on there. Even if it's just a cameo. I like to use a clean rag and boiled linseed oil on bare metal to slow the rust and keep the patina. Later if I want to paint just some good solvent and it comes right off. I like seeing the inside of the gear boxes to see what takes them out. Seems like Katelynn is picking up good on the work.

    Years ago doing training at Fort Polk, LA a young private drove a similar Hemtt down the wrong 2 lane road, he decided the best course of action was to turn around on the skinny road, also the road was built up on a berm through a swamp, well he drove down into the swamp thinking he was in a unstoppable rig, next thing you know you could not see any of the 8 tires under the mud, they brought out a M88A1, thats a tank recovery vehicle, they had to park this down the other side of the berm as its winch just pulled the M88A1 closer to the stuck HEMMT, once they jpulled it down the berm, they were finally able to winch the HEMMT out, but the cable sawed a nearly foot deep trench into the road, fun times

    @user-wp7tm6uh5s 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    For a welding heat sink, watch rummage sales or estate sales for the old soldering irons from 1860-1950's they typically have a pointed copper chunk about 2"x2"x4" with a steel rod and wooden handle. one or two of the irons can be modified to absorb the heat from welding. I use anti spatter wax to help with release. I either shim the heat sink into position or have a helper hold it in position. Often weld will stick so use the handle to twist the sink off the repair. I purchased my last one for $0.50 The bare copper cost brick about $25.00.

    Hello guys. I'm not good at painting and not at your level in the work shop. I just would tell we had the same colour problem for painting years ago. We got the right colour mixed and used a very cheap and simple paint pump called Wagner which gave a reliable result at level a bit higher than the small spray cans, and we could paint like the hole roof at the wrecker. We had the paint in stock and could use it if needed. The paint pump was so cheap and simple that it could be discarded when it no longer worked. And without the spray fog from a pro system we had no need for a big paint box for the work. Best Regards from Norway

    Good that the wrecker got sorted, even better you found it needs a real upgrade - that's what you get when you build something that hasn't been done before - you just keep replacing the bits that break with tougher stuff until you get reliability.

    Awesome video. Glad to see you working with Army H8 crews. They are awesome at what they do! Also, glad to see you quit using Monster transmissions. Their company is terrible to us blue collar people trying to do this kind of d of stuff on a low budget. Last monster that I installed made it about 6 miles behind a stock LS2 GTO. They wouldn’t stand behind it and cost the customer about 3 grand. I replaced it at no cost to help them out. Your values don’t seem to align with theirs. Great work! You’re 11% ready for the off road games.

    If you pull the front clip off the XJ you can have it in or out in about 2 minutes. First time taking front clip off is annoying but there are way too many fasteners from factory IMO. I have only the 6 main 10mm bolts left and threw out the rest takes me about 30 seconds to remove front clip now. Can pull, do full gasket kit, drop back in, reassemble and running in 6 hours at this point.

    Jeeze! That was good enough for now. That monster xfer case was needed! When you put those HUGE tires on it I was thinking you were short on transfer case maybe trans too! Easy to second guess someone else’s!! Livin the dream you are💯. After those mods I expect it will be EPIC!!! Keep up excellent content. Sure hope Bombi gets bugs worked out too! That is a nice rig for recovery!

    Thanks for the great memories, I was responsible for two M984’s when they first came out in the 80’s while stationed in Nüremburg, Germany 🇩🇪
    I also had two M88A1’s, three M936A1 5ton wreckers, an M578 Tracked Recovery Vehicle, a 15T Crane and an International Harvester 10,000lbs Articulating All Terrain Forklift.

    For welding up bolt holes, try the "old solid copper penny" trick. Silicone the penny to a dowl rod and press it to the back side of the sheet metal. It worked for me, AND guess how much it cost???

    • @stargazer7644
      @stargazer7644 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Pennies haven't been solid copper since 1857. They were 95% copper alloy up to 40 years ago. They've been 2% copper plated zinc since 1982.

      @inmyopinion6836 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That is WHY i said OLD copper penny!!! Pre 72 were solid. Everybody's grandpa has a box full.@@stargazer7644 They're not hard to find.

    Don’t forget to Dynomat The inside of the roof so that it won’t transfer heat as bad. And some cup holders center console

      Not just heat, but it will make the cab quieter as well.

    We add booms to some of those oshkosh military trucks that made your wrecker look tiny. Also the 4.0 jeep engine is based off the old AMC engine so adding one of those cranks bumps up some of the displacement in that stroker engine.

    Next time when you're painting use a leaf blower it helps the paint set faster. A fan can speed up the dry time as well.

    You're rig has inspired me to get my rc truck rebuilt. I have a running LMT with a beat up body but really wanted a beefy crawler. What's beefier than the wrecker that saves big crawlers.

      @jimyeats 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For a vehicle painted at an unknown time that’s been sitting out in the sun that they’ve never painted before? Yeah that’s just going to be a match as best you can.
