      Its been a while since he moved in. I expected the place to be all done by now. I guess the views are not there at the moment to justify spending bunch of money. I have seen a few comments saying that he is too over the place and they have lost interest in the channel. I guess people love project channels and JR is not that. I see where they are coming from, JR starts a project then the next dozen videos are so random that you just lose interest.

      he already talked about why it won't be. The place he was going to have do all the welding to put a new rear end in, decided they are not doing anymore jobs for a year. It needs a lot of fab work to put a 9" in it and no one else with a decent price is available.

    I have a 06 Charger Hemi RT I love but it's completely stock 350hp 5.7. Those are cool cars and look really cool with a 300 nose if you like that sort of thing. A Charger nose should bolt on too but if it's a true SRT8 car probably want to leave it as is.

    If you want a really nice caulk gun, but don't want to drop the dough on the M18, you gotta get one where the rod does not have little ratchet notches but is smooth instead. I have two of them I picked up very used, hilariously branded "E Z Thruster", no joke. Really nice, plenty of force, no fixed ratchet distance, easy to depressurize. Makes me laugh but well worth it, never used a cheap one since.

    Sandwich the axle between a couple pieces of wood in the vise so you don't damage that side and then get yourself a real torch like a oxy acetylene torch with a very small tip on it so you can direct the heat right where you need it and then try to turn those bolts out with a pair of vice grips they should turn right out. Or better yet you can weld a nut to what's Left of the bolt and just put a socket on the nut that you welded to the bolt and it'll turn right out

    It's actually kind of weird in a good way that these Magnums seem to be immune to the Covid price. I see plenty of the RT going for 4-7k and a lot of the v6 going for about 2500-3500. Last time I looked that's about what they've always gone for used.

    I am 51, and my generation hated station wagons, we had one because there were 4 of us kid's. We had the k car wagon and got picked on over it, until the ford aerostar came out, but i was nearly graduated by then. To this day i hate station wagons, and mini vans, with the exception of the gmc safari, was a dependable van. I don't like the charger either, a 4 door is not a sport's car. I do and always loved the challenger, especially the old one's. This was an interesting video though, you make great content JR, just hate wagons lol.

    Always thought those looked like a hearse, seemed weird as a sports car, but I am favor of wagons, so I guess I like it? 😉 Always nice to see some new and in depth wrenching. I'm hoping this isn't what happened to my Saturn this past week, the clunk in the front finally fully broke, so now I've got Schrodinger's plastic car, broken but not sure how until I jack it up and pop off the wheels. At least all the parts I can imagine it might be, are darn cheap on Rock Auto at least, no $1500 axles for me.
