Would you ever consider doing a couple videos on welding? Mig and tig. Everything from machine selection, to setup, accessories, your welding table, and the process to achieve the best welds. The videos you produce are inspiring.
Man another top notch quality exhaust build from LT!! You have some unreal skills my friend!! Can't wait to see some more and now I want to learn how to do this kind of welding!! Thanks for sharing this with us!! :)
A week’s worth of time! If I’m doing my own, I’d be happy. If I had to pay shop rate, maybe not so much. Beautiful work, though! BTW LT, I’ve had to do a lot of grinding on my own project, C-notches, various other mods. My wife insists, rightly, that I wear an industrial dust mask doing this grinder stuff. I also do woodwork, have an acquaintance who has done it his whole life-he’s now living with major lung issues. PPE is there to keep you healthy!
See, this was informative. I've got a '78 F-100 stepside that I'm going to end up doing an exhaust on. I was thinking either side exit under the steps with a square/rectangular end-piece, or keeping it hidden/tucked up under the rear step bumper with a downward ejection. Now I just need to decided on which muffler....
Great job LT! I like your comment on the amount of time it took. Sometimes its easy to think you just whip these things up in an afternoon since it's just a 16 minute video.
You do nice work LT , I never saw you on TV as I quit watching it many yr's ago . I watched your videos on the Suburban rear end swap and I subbed after that .
That would sound awesome with 2 more cylinders and revs higher than 4K on the ripems. Great job on the exhaust. I don’t think people really understand the time involved in customs. I’ve built a few boat and make all my own hardware. You can spend a day on 1 bracket between the lathe and the mill. Maybe I’ll hit the lotto and be able to afford a CNC machine one day. Can’t wait to see what’s next.
Dude, you got me over here doing diff eq, calc, and trig trying to figure out a way to delete my exhaust there on my XJ. I believe the reason you want to avoid terminating the exhaust under the bed is because it creates a pocket of heat at low speed that affects the gas tank and whatnot. Sound too I guess but either way everyone else is gonna hear that thing from six blocks away.
Nice work man, glad to see you on your own outside of power nation. I know getting that completed muffler and tip in was a pain in the ass, would have liked to see how you got that section in again after it was all welded up
no, I'm using just standard 308 filler and for ideal results I should back purge, but for most exhaust systems, I skip the step. However, if I am building anything like a turbo manifold or a crossover pipe that goes before a turbo, I always back purge
Hey LT, the exhaust came out pretty bitchin'! Now if you can talk the Comanche owner into letting you do a Cummins swap for him' that'd be awesome, rigjht?
It has the upstream in the header that's all you need the sensor after the converter is just there to make sure the converter is doing its job has no effect on how the engine runs, just gives you an annoying check engine light.
@@LawrenceTolman appreciate the reply, I remember seeing it when you first pulled it off the trailer but didn't have time to finish the video, kids man lol
You should really do something as far as a build besides a exhaust! No offense you are a bad ass at building exhaust. But let’s see some belts if you’re going to make a living on TH-cam
FINALLY got the comanche done! Maybe now I'll have some time to work on my own projects
Don’t be so sure. If the right people see the quality of the work you do I think you’ll have plenty of people wanting you to work on their trucks
I heard somebody say "If you aren't showing it, you aren't doing it". LT is showing it and doing it....and the results are so fine!

I actually bought a respirator this week for a bunch of wire wheeling I'm about to do on an axle...
Lts mad skills!😎👊🏻
Sound alot better and looks a ton better. Great work as always!
There's a catalytic converter in the old system that can be sold/recycled. I love your fab skills.
Looks great! Nice touch with that exit
Thanks!
@@LawrenceTolman really enjoying your channel!!!

Great Job LT
Great job LT!

I appreciate that! Projects like building your own exhaust can be very time consuming for sure. Thanks for noticing!

hey thanks a bunch for subscribing!
Looks awesome LT! I liked the little cackle when revving at the end.
Sounds great not to loud. Great job on that tear drop!
Sounds great LT. nice work
Looks great LT! Super clean!
Thanks!
Yeah, that sounds nice
387👍's up LT thanks again for taking us all along with you for the great build
Lookin like a true suburban dad in this video
That's sweet rig an sweet exhaust an sounds beautiful

You’re a better man than I am for not running with only the header lol
Awesome work.

Very nice, Quality take time.
Great job!
Looks good. I want to do something similar on my 4x4 turbo Colorado
Great Job
Great job as usual!
Great Job 👍✌️
Good job, I like it.
nice job looks great..
One down and another great one to come. When are we taking the saw to the suburban?? ;). Can’t wait.
Nice work man, glad to see you on your own outside of power nation. I know getting that completed muffler and tip in was a pain in the ass, would have liked to see how you got that section in again after it was all welded up
went in pretty easily actually, there's plenty of room under the jeep to swing it up in there
Please invest in a back purge such as *TICON* IT'LL SAVE YOU FROM FUTURE REPAIRS
Another amazing build LT!!! What's next LT!
hopefully I can spend a little time on my own projects haha
You need a hat sponsor ASAP, or put a BIC razor to that dome. Good work on the rig.
Man that sounds good...😁😁😁
Man I wanna learn to tig weld so flipping bad.
Trade school or community College that has a welding program.
Nice!! Great work... :-)
Dayummmmm
I wrk from my garage too and was curious of what u charge per hr for those of us not certain what we shld be charging
Hey LT, I notice you don't back purge when welding stainless. Are you using a special filler rod or something so it isn't necessary to purge?
no, I'm using just standard 308 filler and for ideal results I should back purge, but for most exhaust systems, I skip the step. However, if I am building anything like a turbo manifold or a crossover pipe that goes before a turbo, I always back purge
Wondering why you didn't close off the pipe ends and gass the inside of the pipe for a better weld? You used too i think.
I really like that welding table vise. Where can I find one?
bought it from weldtables.com its the 2'x3' version
@@LawrenceTolman Thanks, but I was just looking for the vise (I already have a table), and it doesn't appear to be available from them.
Oh, duh I read that too quickly. It’s actually a Wilton trailer hitch vise that I made a custom mount for out of a receiver hitch
No shield gas from inside?
Takes a couple seconds to get your vision back lol
Killer jorts @ 2:45. :p
Hey LT, the exhaust came out pretty bitchin'! Now if you can talk the Comanche owner into letting you do a Cummins swap for him' that'd be awesome, rigjht?
If you wanna drop a R2.8 off at his place, I'll let him put it in.
What angle pipe do you use to make the tip
Oh
Magnaflow \m/\m/
That's pretty pissah!
What about the O2 sensors and the catalytic converter?? It's going to run like an ass!!
It has the upstream in the header that's all you need the sensor after the converter is just there to make sure the converter is doing its job has no effect on how the engine runs, just gives you an annoying check engine light.
Yeah, it does have an o2 sensor in it, right after the header, in the factory location.
@@sogood4u489 This era of 4.0L only has 1 O2 sensor in the header. There was no second Post-Cat sensor.
What tv show did you say you were you on?
Truck Tech formerly trucks
@@sogood4u489 thanks
Really curious what lift they have on it
It's an all custom lift. I hand built the rear and refined the front.
its all custom built by the owner, I went over it in detail 2 videos back
@@LawrenceTolman appreciate the reply, I remember seeing it when you first pulled it off the trailer but didn't have time to finish the video, kids man lol

I cringe every time I see you cut pipe with that abrasive saw and then spend time cleaning up the cut 😬
I know, I badly need need a carbide chop saw
Good for you David, no one cares
