- After building this Jeep Wrangler YJ on Dirt Everyday it’s time to go back and finish some mechanical issues before heading out on 4wheeler Magazine’s Ultimate Adventure 2022. This episode will include a new timing chain and gears, new Centerforce Clutch, and new rear main seal. All things that can help out on any Jeep or wheeling rig.
Clutch kit: www.centerforce.com/i-3050047...
Keywords: maintenance Jeep transfer case transmission timing set Offroad off road 4x4 4wd clutch midnight metal works Dirthead DirtheadDave Dirt Everyday
Definitely the best opening music of any of the youtube car guy channels.
Thank you.
After seeing Tony Angelo’s new gig released yesterday, hopefully Hagerty reaches out to you & Fred as well! If not, I’ll still be here and liking that smash button on the regular. 👍
im curious to see where it goes. thanks.
Hagerty do seem to be targeting these new type of upcoming channels from ex Motortrend staff. Being a Aussie I lost my Motortrend streaming 2 years ago so the more content from guys like Dave, Tony, Fred and even David Newbern who looks to have gone out alone, the better.
Australia’s cable channel Foxtel do show some Motortrend shows, but it’s 10 year old content:(
@@vintagetintrader1062 look into finnegand garage too some really cool content over there thats not just cars
I think Fred said something about there being some legal stipulations surrounding doing the same offroad content that’s why everything is build content??
Is this correct
@@beznerindustries3057 yes I do watch his TH-cam but a lot of his stuff is high end, high dollar, and high specialised knowledge required. Im not going to be building a 50k Hemi engine for a jet boat anytime soon.
Finding a Barra 6 at my local wreckers and seeing if a T5 from a XF Falcon will survive behind it is more my thing.
Bargain basemen performance is my thing, something is Australians are born with, making the most with what you got, We are the worlds best turd polishers,,,, no that’s not the right metaphor,,,
Thank you for turning the headlights off when you pulled into the garage!
That was very cash money of you 😊
Looking cool is the most important step
"You won't have an oil leak for 15 to 20 miles... cuz it's a jeep". Truer words have never been spoken. These videos are awesome Dave. Thoroughly enjoyable to watch and super informative. Thank you for all your hard work.
Thank you!! I was having a real hard time posting it. I thought it would be too boring
@@thedirtheadshed nothing off road can be boring to me. I was actually looking for more detailed information.
I’m laid up waiting for back surgery so I just rewatched all the episodes of UA on motortrend..I can’t wait for the new episodes!
The official videos should roll out late November
I loved the comment “it won’t leak oil for another 15-20miles” spoken like a true backyard mechanic working on a jeep
It did exactly what I expected
Am I mistaken or does the service manual call for rtv at the edges of the lower part of the rear main?
Won't have a leak for 15-25 miles 😂 a true connoisseur
true
It's crazy you ended up with this jeep, It used to sit a block away from my house and drove past it everyday for years
I bought it from that guy’s nephew. He passed away not too long ago
I know it is lots of work to film yourself while creating great content but you pull it off and it looks almost effortless. Yeah, your noise levels are sometimes off and you might drop the camera once in a while, but it is very entertaining.
I think your attitude, charisma ,and knowledge all come together for something special.
I appreciate that. It’s getting more natural
This Jeep build sent me down a rabbit hole since it first showed up on DED. I sold my JK that I had since new and went on a quest for a decent YJ to build, and I ended up with a killer buggy instead. 😂
It looks rad
My 94 4.0 is noisy also. Been that way for a while. Runs fine
Same
This is what we wanted in a show all along!!!
Thanks! I appreciate the input
I love this channel because I love the content, and Dave legitimately is the man.
I hate this channel entirely due to jealousy:
1. Everything is so clean, living in the north east my vehicles look like these "junk" ones for all of 6 months before they start rusting.
2. I just swapped a TH350 in my junk car on gravel and stone last night... my lift jealousy is at an all time high.
I did all this in a driveway for a long time. Took a lot of sacrifices to be able to build a proper shop
Just adding a comment because I know it helps!
I appreciate it
Digging the new channel intro. Amazed at how polished you’re getting with every video. Keep up the great work and get Fred to visit.
I'm sure they will eventually but Fred has vaguely suggested that they have to wait until their MT contracts expire to start working together again. Or something like that.
Correct
Thank you. I’m looking forward to getting this channel to support itself so I can hopefully get back to cool trips
I was interested in where the butter jeep came from so I’m digging into the history! I’m learning a bit about the 4.0 here and the LS swap in the recent videos. Lots of really cool stuff going on
Dirty every day was the only reason I held the motor trend subscription. Glad to see you on the TH-cams now!!
Thanks for the support. Ill keep pushing.
I remember replacing the rear main seal in my Late Dads 1969 Jeep CJ-5. We had to lay on the driveway to do it. The new seal came with a wire that had a gripper thing on one end that the "instructions" said just clamp the gripper to the seal and it will just slide out. Yeah right it took us two nights after supper to finally get the seal out and the new one in. I lost my Dad on Feb.15, 2019. Dad was not what you call a car guy but he was always all in on what ever I dragged home.
Sounds like a good guy. Embrace the memories
@@thedirtheadshed I do.
Square headlight gang
Yep. Seems like all of my rigs right now
Finally! someone on youtube does the gasket sealant on paper gaskets correctly. I always see people putting a bead on the flange and then putting the paper gasket on and calling it good. a thin film on the paper applied with your fingers works a treat and keeps the paper from failing. TY Dave!
its the little things. That's also a pet peeve of mine.
You and Fred have to get another show going! I enjoy watching both your channels, but I can tell you guys have a blast working together!
Yeah it’s always better with buddies
Love it brother. Keep it comin!
Keepin
Nice Leatherman
On my side at all times
Great video Dave. Eastern Washington looks like a beautiful place, I'd like to visit. I've only been to the western part
It is really nice. All the way over to the Dakotaa
Nice one dave
thank you.
That old chain was rough! New chain and sprocket set looks like a nice upgrade. The old one looked like a motorcycle chain, but the new one looks like multiple plates per linkage. Nice
Yeah. 240 k on the motor and it was due for some love
Love seeing YJ builds. I've got a '92. I'm looking forward to Midnight Metalworks's 4-speed box they're working on.
they are good little jeeps. And kinda classic at this point
Production is better! Beefy YJ is cool. Thanks for sharing. Love Dirt
Thanks for watching. I promise it’ll get better
I’m honestly digging the yt channel a lot more then ded we see alot more of what you take pride in
I appreciate that. A Lot got cut on ded
So glad you are doing this, love the content and the variety of what you are working on! Please keep going!!
Will do. Thanks
Can’t wait to see the adventure. This is a good start to it ✌🏽😎
Thanks. I’ve got a few videos to post
Another great video, thanks Dave!
Thanks for watching
Yeah! More videos! Go Dave!
got to crank them out. hopefully this one doesn't bore you to death
Keep it up! Great work so far. Keep the tech and detail coming.
Will do. Thank you
Nice work! Keep the content coming!
Cheers from Canada!
Cheers!
Nice! Love the work, videos looking good keep it up man
Thank you.
I can't wait to see how the rear main seal works for you . I have only slowed my leak briefly after many attempts. Hope to see you at EJS 2023 .
it failed already. I have a factory one on order.
15-20 miles huh?
Oh wow, the chains were so different.
Chains? I need to go back and watch
Love this stuff Dave 🙌
Thanks
I love how love make stuff look simple
It’s all nuts and bolts
I love the calm chill relaxed no nonsense no BS way you have of saying things
Its fun. Things get good when the situation gets bad.
Love watching you and Fred with your new endeavors on the You Tubes, thank you. Keep it up Dave, I appreciate it.
Thanks, it seems like a good outlet
Keep the rad videos coming Dave! Gives me inspiration to work on my old Ford.
Right on. Thanks
Nice build. Very necessary maintenance!
Thanks
Great save one stalled lugging away from disaster
Thanks
Looking good!
Thank you.
These videos just keep getting better and better. Keep it up, Dave! Oh, and greetings from Lithuania by the way.
Cheers! Thanks for the support
Thanks for sharing. I have a wrangler YJ myself. Only mine is the 4 cylinder and 5 speed. Really enjoy watching your videos 👍👍
thanks for watching. keep enjoying that jeep.
This such perfect timing... Just finished rebuilding my 1992 4.0, had the tranny and T-case rebuilt, and I have a great how to video... This is my first Jeep project, so THANKS!!!
Right on. Have fun with it
I'm a CJ 7 guy, but really like your new set up, and the way you go about sharing your years of knowledge. Thanks and subbed.
I appreciate it. Thanks
Dirt heads for life!!! Nothing is worse then doing a big project and having the same issues.
Right! It’s frustrating
Very cool YJ build, love your style Dave! Can't wait to build a UA rig one day! 🤘🇨🇦
Thank you
Good stuff Dave
Thank you
Ibou.
I bought my first 4x4 43 years ago.
A 77 chevy step side, with a 400 small block w/ 4 barrel.
I beat the crap out of that truck ...
Thank You for sharing your video, and letting us hang out .
Thanks for watching. sounds like a rad truck.
@@thedirtheadshed Mad driver lol
Loving the content Dave! Dirt Heads forever!
Thanks Josh. I need folks like you on my side
Makes want to get a YJ. Keep up the good work!
Thanks.
I love that you started a TH-cam channel after Dirt Every Day. Great stuff!
Thanks for watching.
Great video Dave
Thank you
Thanks for sharing David
Thanks for watching
Loving the channel! Gotta get my daily dose of dirt. Doctor's orders..
I'll get to the dirt! Got to get these projects done first though.
Jeep 4.0 lifter noise. Normal, just send it 😁.
Done
Seeing a video of you and Nate from Dirt Lifestyle would be a fun video someday!
We’re working on it
So bummed DED is has been canceled finally paid amazon to catch up on episodes ... I dont understand how you only got 45k subs love the channel ive learned so much wish I was as good as a fabricator as you ... Your driving me to keep building my xj to next level
Hopefully the subs grow. TH-cam is a strange place to figure out
Great video Dave! A few weeks ago I made a comment about audio level mixing. It seemed much better in this episode everything was reasonably close to the same volume. Great work and I enjoyed watching this. Thanks for making the videos and being accessible and awesome!
Thanks. I had a little shotgun mic for this, and tried to match levels as best I could
@@thedirtheadshed your efforts are appreciated!
😂 I flinched hard when you dropped the camera!😂 Great video.
Thank you
Love the YJ glad you took it and didn't go tons on it.
Me too. Thanks
LuK clutch. Pronounced Luke is a Geman company. They have a plant in Wooster OH. Depending on the age of that clutch it could have been made there or in their plant in Mexico.
I always called them Luke, someone recently corrected me and pronounced it Luck. I’ll stick to my original way
Discovery should do a show with you and Fred, doing what you do best.......have fun
That would be cool
Love the YJ, great to see them on here. I've got a 87' with the 4.2L put a Holley Sniper kit in it and I've got to take it apart and send it back in for warranty work they couldn't figure out what was wrong over the phone. Mine isn't built up like your's is but maybe one day.
Hope that sniper works out. When the are good the are GOOD
Love the video so I subscribed gave you a thumbs up can't wait to see the next one good job
Thanks! I appreciate it
Love your stuff mate
Thank you.
What up danger man Dave, just found your video, been watching ded for a while looking forward to seeing more videos
Tell your friends! Let’s grow this thing
Love the content!
thanks so much. i had a hard time posting this video. thought it would be way too boring.
That's just the lifters letting you know it's still running! :D
Yep. They like to speak up
Emilio Estevez working on his YJ 🤣
I used to get that a lot. It’s been a while
@@thedirtheadshed Keep it up man, awesome content.
Hmm, I didn't think it sounded too bad. But I wasn't in the garage, but I've had 3 4.0 engines in Jeeps. And they can be the clickiest, clackiest, engines sometimes, and still run forever. Great video, I'm really liking the content here.
thanks, I have had a handful of them. This one is by far the worst sounding. But may be the best running one yet.
Can't wait to see this year's adventure .I remember the first time seeing ultimate adventure. I think it was 14 0r 15 starting out at powerline Park , which is about a hour from my house in wv .hopefully one year I'll get my wj built enough to get chosen as a readers ride.
that was a good trip. that park had beer cans scattered everywhere though. We actually talked about it on this years trip.
@@thedirtheadshed yea that's the sad thing I did a dirt bike scramble there once years ago I filled my backpack quick
Dave, I hear you correcting from truck to Jeep often. Do some people have an issue with you calling your little truck a truck?
Just call it a truck, I mean it ain't a car and it ain't a motorbike, it's a truck!
Yeah. I just have to be careful. Lots of people like to correct you on here
Nice to hear the JBFab name...they provided me with a universal twin-stick set up for my 231/231 doubler in an XJ. Gonna have to save my pennies for Midnight's case & doubler, although I'd sure consider the promised 4 speed box they've got comin'.
Pretty cool you did the doubler. I’d like to build one some day
Check the distributor for noise.
i didnt check it. If thats the problem Ill kick myself.
Every 4L I’ve had has sounded terrible. But they all ran great
Same same
I just did all this with my 97. You need loctite on the rear bearing cap. I used three Felpros seals and it poured oil...used a Mopar and it's finally dry. I replaced my oil pump and timing chain with Melling. Nice work!
This felpro one is already leaking. I’ll be getting another from the dealership
@@thedirtheadshed Don't forget the loctite...the FSM specifies 518 but I've had luck using 971. I also lubed the bearings and new seals with engine assembly oil. My AX-15 transmission is leaking so I'm putting in a DEI tunnel heat and noise shield and probably going to wrap the exhaust from the headers to the CAT.
If you don't like using rtv, gasgacinch works wonders to seal up and secure the gasket without the mess
Good advice
@@thedirtheadshed my dad taught my about it and swears by it. I've been using it for about 20yrs myself
That was great!!
Wow, you got a new Sub!!
Awesome. I appreciate it!
Adjust the valves
with what? they are not adjustable.
Love it
Thanks!
Love all the content. As a suggestion, have you looked into a BT mic for filming? One would let you move around and easily maintain a more constant audio level.
Working on it
By the way, the intro to your videos 10 out of 10
Thank you
Great video, need to adjust the volume in a few spots, it was hard to hear. Transfer case looks awesome, can't wait to see how this YJ does on UA this year.
I ran through and tried to even out the audio on all the clips. Now that the channel is making a few bucks i will purchase some proper equipment.
Some of those 4.0L motors have issues with loose rocker arms, it could be the miss you are hearing and the source of the noise. Loosening all the main caps and letting the crank drop a bit can help to remove the rear main seal. It appeared that the one you removed was in backwards.
I checked torque on the arms.
You and Fred are both like that
thanks.
Love, love the content!!!! Especially like the rear main and your comment, you won’t have an oil leak for 15 to 20…. MILES! No kidding, my daughter and I built her a TJ and put new rear main in… I got no leaks for about a month and now have a drop every now and then…. SHOULD I BE CONCERNED DAVE? Tell me what is next? Or do I just leave it…
Leave it for now.. but replace with a factory one if you’re up for it
Unfortunately the 4.0L tends to suffer from piston slap due to short piston skirts. My 94 ZJ is noisy AF, but has great oil pressure and seems to run just fine at 204K miles. I've listened with a stethoscope to determine if a timing chain would help, and the front of the engine really seems quiet. I just put a Luk clutch set in earlier this year with a rear main seal and oil pan gasket. Been really happy with the Luk setup, so far. I'm far from properly geared (3.73 w/32" tires), but have managed to chirp 2nd with it. Hopefully the Centerforce treats you well!
So rad it’s great
This makes me want a JEEP 😁
You need one..
I've been wanting to do a separate transmission mount on my YJ for a long time now. I might have to tackle that when it's in the garage to fix the rear suspension soon.
its nice to keep em seperate. I smashed that belly pan pretty good. Now i can straighten it out without having to support the trans.
Awesome 😎
Thanks!
Thats a very cool YJ!! I love seeing people build cool YJ's ( doesnt happen very often ). people are always hating on my YJ, but i love it anyway lol. KUTGV!!! BTW my 4.0 sounds like a diesel lol
Thanks. I dig em. This is my third one.
Ditch that Jeep and take the backyard Bronco!!
I sold the bronco.. Never really was that in to it.
Iron pig???
@@HoundofWar You're killin me.... I sold that too. Needed cash to help finish building the shop.
Good thing I didn’t find your shop in SD…. You would’ve sold my rig!!
Hope all is well Dave. I was going to service my 2 differentials, tc and trans this weekend but realized axle seal at the wheel was leaking. So rather than deal with all the headache I ordered 2 axle shaft assemblies with bearings and races and at the same time ill service the rear diff. I love my jeep but this one was a little unexpected. (2015 JKUR stock with nitto mudders 158k miles)
Would love to see if you ever wanted to organize a viewer meet and greet /ride. That would be awesome
Sounds like a lot of work: seems like they all are
mega nice. you make jobs look so easy lol
Thank you
