Secure Your Bronco With This Cargo Enclosure From Tuffy
Amber likes to run around with the soft top down on her 2022 Ford Bronco. Much like a Jeep, this means your belongings are fair game for thieves. Soft tops are not secure whether they are up or down, so I installed this security enclosure from Tuffy to give her a secure spot to keep items.

Compression Test on my Jeep YJ - Is it Ok??
Your a funny guy 😂 love your sarcasm 😅 no wheels on jeep 😂😂😂
I can't wait to see what else y'all do with the Bronco. All the videos I find are so mid intensive (i.e. fabrication) that it's good to see stuff that doesn't involve cutting and welding (that's what the Jeep is for, lol). Great video. Really enjoyed it.
She wont let me do that much to it since its the most expensive thing she's ever bought and doesnt really want me to wheel it. I'm going to attempt to do useful mods like a tailgate table and this enclosure, so when we do little easy trips to the woods things will be decently equipped. That's also why I bought the trailer to contain alot of this stuff like the tent to the trailer instead of having racks and stuff. On the short list I would like to do the tierod upgrade, get a winch in the front dv8 bumper and a few more lights.
If it was mine id probably be upgrading the turbo and all kinds of stupid stuff haha
@@FlawedOffroad Would like to see what a turbo from a 7.3 Powerstroke would do to it 🤣🤣🤣
@@theezeelife292 christ on a 4 banger that thing wouldnt even spool. I just would like more turbo noises, you can barely hear this thing
A friend has one ran into the same issue I just message him and said watch your video. He told me he modded his as well. I yet to see it though. And I do not know what mod he made he said it opens
Ive got a few ideas how to do it. Let me know what he did.
@ he told me he cut the tip off then welded up and new front plates like you said he tried to angle the cuts to lift it freely but it ran into the soft top he said it is bad design being it’s to high for the rear I might go do a video of his. Maybe. So it can be showed. We both don’t live close to,each other. He had the bronco and lifted his and did things. I’m not a ford guy Chevy jeep I like Hondas. I own a 1987 Honda prelude mint near mint so I have a soft spot for Hondas. I fixed one up from multi color multi parts to sell it for 11.5. I just picked up 35 inch wheels and 5 inch kit for my jeep used parts but it came from a guy who put it on last year. I paid 200 for the wheels and lift. Not bad but will be adding new things after I lift it.
I get a kick out of these manufacturers that call their intakes "cold air" when it's actually hot air intake for less power. The factory intake is cold air. So leave it and save hundreds.
@@Tom-qb7pt I can’t speak for other people but nobody really buys them to be a cold air intake. We buy them because we need to move the intake and it’s the cheapest option. My factory airbox would no longer fit with other modifications I made
I removed the front sway bar and rear pandhard bar on my 4Runner but I left the rear sway in for balance and my goodness the truck rides incredibly better... It's insane !!!! Yes body roll is there and I feel the back dancing a bit more, but the ride is way softer and I'm a good driver so I will definitely sacrifice handling for that comfort.
You could always check your spring bushings or swap them to poly bushings to tighten up a bit. Its pretty uncanny how much it binds in a leaf setup

great video…adding the air over hydraulic this weekend
@@michaelmounts1269 it’s pretty handy. Had this on there a few years and I’d suggest using or building a foot pedal for the air so you have both hands to hold whatever you’re pressing. I did a second video of modifying this press you should check that out
What is the constant ticking noise?
Pretty sure I mentioned its the fuel pump. Most of these diesel heaters are like that, Ive heard there are silent pump upgrades
@FlawedOffroad thank you, I was thinking of buying one but if it ticks like that constantly, it would drive me nuts.
Get ready for rust in about 48 hours
@@Madmike908 lol those coatings aren’t the best but they aren’t that bad haha. The jk has rocker guards with that same coating for 2 years now with no rust, but I don’t drive it in winter/salt. It’s about to get parked for the winter
When installing rivnuts use nickel anti-seize, the more the better.
Thanks for taking the time to make this man. I’m gonna get me one of these welders
While this is a good machine, I would honestly recommend the 250 pro model instead. It costs a little more $ ($499 right now) but you get so much more machine. I have a video about that welder as well here:ua-cam.com/video/dN-sYkyy66Q/v-deo.html or you can check it out here on the website bit.ly/3B9Zg2k
I've seen dozens of videos on putting new fenders on a JK, but this is the first video I've ever seen that shows you how to remove the old ones without destroying all kinds of stuff in the process.
@@theezeelife292 I mean the clips are one time use no matter what so those get destroyed every time pretty much. They are not the kind that you can get out gently and reuse. Luckily you can get replacements online for dirt cheap(if a guy was trying out put stocks back on)
Thanks for the tip. Looks pretty good. My fenders are cut. May be time for an upgrade.
@@Thexkidd i’m pretty happy overall they just take a little bit of jockeying. In the future I will probably slot out the holes some more so I can raise the front fenders
I have a 2000 Jeep tj I thinking I need tube fenders I picked up way bigger wheels and a 5 inch lift for it. But I gotta fix the floors and body mounts. I’m lucky I have a bro in law that can make me the pieces I need. He has started a bussiness doing car things and most vehicles. And metal fab. He really good. A cert mechanic as well. Me and him well he did we put all new brake lines on the Jeep. I like both your jeeps.
Check their site, I think they have stuff for older jeeps too
@ will do
Better late than never kudos for some nice work! 🤟 Hope ya remembered to add the gear oil. Lol.
Yes I did haha and it was nice having the traction at badlands. Still wasn't enough to get up V notch, apparently only the yota boys in our group could make it. Hoping to get that wheeling video out soon but I had/still have some product vids I have to put out first.
Nice job buttoning down the loosey-lazy stuff and making it proper and most likely safer🎉
Yeah it was bothering me being all tangled, I’ve become a bit of a wiring snob. Now if I would just take apart my jeep and fix the wiring that 12 years ago me did 😂
Going through this right now hahaha didnt realize the exhaust was way thicker, got choppy idle and running very rich almost blew my cat out lol
Its so dumb that these parts makers cant just make it the right size.
Great !
very in depth video . better than other videos about this heater
Thanks. I was not expecting this to get viewed so much, It was just a little experiment but I'm glad it's helpful.
That clicking is a deal breaker for me
@@MudMonsterRacing4 I’ve heard you can get silent pumps for them.
Unless you're freezing your ass off
@@talusranch990 There's plenty of other ways to heat.
Don't quite understand these vids. If you put a little insulation in the garage, you can heat it with one or two 1500 watt heaters. I heat mine down to the 20s this way. Gets it to the low 60s at least. And my garage door is uninsulated wood/masonite. INSULATION!
@@roadrunner3563 I don’t know if you looked around anywhere during the video the entire garage is insulated including the roof lol
Almost wonder if you attached the output to HVAC vents along your loft with a few off chutes if that would spread the heat more.
Not sure this thing has enough output to make that viable.
What's the Sq. Ft. of the garage? , Also, remember that all the steel in the garage has to be heated up as well.
think its about 22x24 or somewhere around that.
Your wasting so much heat/time with the heater so high up, you need it as low as possible for best results and quicker heat time
The hot air is blowing down!
@ and by the time the hot air reaches the ground it’s not so hot anymore you need to let it rise ,trust me I have 5 diesel heaters in total all running everyday there is a big difference from air naturally moving up than being forced down just to turn around and go back up, if it rises naturally don’t need the heater set so high just to force it down, so much energy wasted but you do you and I’ll do mine, you know best
I like the fairlead but not the price which is almost half the price of the winch
@@TheArozconpollo can’t buy steak for hotdog prices man
I bought 2 8kw for my 2 car fully insulated garage. It was 50 degrees outside and it took 3 hours to raise the temp 10 degrees. I’m not impressed with them at all. They don’t maintain even. I had the temp up to 67 shut one off and it drop down to 63 in an hour. Mind you 50 degrees outside I’m gonna keep them and use them for my fish house
I mean they are meant to heat a car or a tent, not a full size garage. This was just an experiment for me and I largely had the same results. Although it was much colder when I did it which is harder to raise the temp. It does help my other heater get the shop warm faster though. If you had a storage container sized shop that would probably be the max.
If the temperature in your garage dropped 7° in 1 hour, then your garage is not nearly insulated as well as you think it is. It's a problem with your garage. Not a problem with these heaters. Educate yourself kid. You answered your own problem with your comment.
Does those louvers cause a lot of rain water get in there on your motor?
@@tonyparson4392 yep lol. Doesn’t hurt anything mostly but I wouldn’t run these if your only parking outside. Mine lives in the garage but I’ve left it out in the weather for months. Not like the water gets inside the engine.
Thank you for the reply back. I put a small block Chevrolet in my YJ And I kind of went overboard and put a show car motor everything on it is chrome and I was thinking about this, but I think I better figure something else out. Lol.
@@tonyparson4392 I have a solution for you. 5.9 Jeep ZJ ( mid 90's Grand Gherokee) came with factory hood vents, they have a drip tray built into them that you can route the water away. Only came on the 5.9 v8 though. I have a set of them in the garage
Shocked it runs 6010!
Why? 6010 is pretty basic. Is there a stick welder besides an AC only tombstone that wont run 6010?
Man. Feels like a preview of what I'm in for. 😂
@@SimplyMustGo you should watch the one before this one lol that’s even more so
Definitely if you run a exhaust heat exchanger you get more out that unit..
You’re a good friend to help your buddy.
That's what friends are for(even if this was a big job), plus he is the best camp chef ever! He feeds my whole family all weekend when we go to badlands haha. Fair trade indeed
@@FlawedOffroadawesome
As far as the spool, I have heard of guys running the tc in 4lo, passenger hub locked, and driver hub unlocked until needed. Have you tried that? Sounds like a nuisance getting in and out of the jeep all the time, but cheaper than a selectable locker. Your paint scheme looks like mine. I have a can of white spray paint for body touch up (stock white XJ) and black for the under body. Whenever I have a random can of black I paint the underside wherever the rust is sprouting up.
@@benjaminreinhardt259 I just ran with it locked it just made for stiff ass steering but I have Hydro assist so it’s not terrible. But I made sure to unlock it every time it was time to head back to camp haha. I ran eight years with a lunchbox locker in the front so I was kind of used to it already, although with one of those when you go to 2 Wheel Dr. it kind of slips like an open, unlike the spool.
Vroom Vroom Beep beep! 23:00 love it!

Hey man, been enjoying your channel. Just sort of breaking into the YJ world and tryna learn stuff and your content has been great for this. Right now mine is fully stock, but I'd love to slowly work my way towards a more fun build. I came across the Poison Spyder full cage on extreme terrain for $1200 while window shopping. Ya, thats twice as much as yours... but with the price increase you mentioned on that front cage kit, and then all the extra stuff you had to do to reinforce the rear it seems like just getting a full kit could be a viable option? I do like the idea of just modifying the stock cage... seems like a fun project. I'm a novice welder and don't have a tube bender and all that but if it can be done with mostly straight tubing or if there's a kit out there that has pre-bent stuff, that would be neat. Alright, I'm rambling, I'll shut up lol. Thanks again for the content, keep it up
@@tateshepherd523 that sounds like a good deal I thought it used to be more. I hate the stanchions the ps cage uses though it’s so hard to get your feet in and out of the jeep. They basically go straight down from the dash by the speaker to the floor.
@@FlawedOffroad Good feedback on that cage thanks! Sounds like the DIY version gives you more control and saves some costs. Thanks for the response!
@ keep in mind those prices I gave were pre-the last two or three rounds of inflation so it might not be all that viable anymore to go that route and save a bunch of money

"Not for impact use." *proceeds to use impact* This is why I like this channel so much. Lol.
Ain’t gonna let a warning label tell me how to live my life😂😂😂
That diff can’t be good on turns. Did you break any axle u joints
it made the steering pretty bad on the trails but with the lockouts Im able to disconnect it for street driving or getting to/from trails. Im more concerned my mile marker lockouts are going to explode. But it made it through 3 days of wheeling no prob! I ran a front lunchbox locker for 8 years so I am used to horrible front steering on the trail haha but I cant wait to get the 60 in with the selectable
Bout damn time bro. Keep up the good work 😁
Nice job Danno..
Thanks other Danno!

Thank you for making this video! I have to do this soon to my 08 JKU Rubicon as well as the hubs and rotors. Will probably do this all at once since I'll be under it taking it apart. Just makes sense, but I do have one question. My Jeep sits on 20" wheels and 35 tires, I've noticed that the steering seems loose and touchy. Ball joints, drag link, tierod/end, and sway bar have all been replaced recently as well (Within the last year). What can I do to tighten up this steering in this Jeep? Picture the old farmer in the cartoons where the steering wheels moves left and right a lot while he is driving but not turning. Lol
I have seen in several JK's especially ones that have been on large tires for alot of miles, where the slop is in the steering box. Its hard to explain how to check it but grab a buddy and have them saw the steering wheel back/forth while you lay underneath and look at the track bar ends, all steering joints, pitman arm etc. also have someone only move the wheel as far as the slop is and see if the pitman arm is even moving. All the slop could be in the steering shaft or box. Hope that helps. P.S. I have seen several brand new tie rods and drag links be sloppy from brand new especially if its parts house junk. Seen Jeeps with 5000 miles have clapped factory steering.
if you dont think you can figure it out, search out your local offroad shop and ask them to check out the front end. That accounts for probably half the jobs I do at work at a Jeep/Truck accessory shop. We do lifts and all kinds of stuff but I do so much suspension and steering work to correct death wobble and loose steering or even terrible tire wear. Good luck
@@FlawedOffroad I'm not sure what the ball joints are, they were done at the dealership just before I took delivery of this Jeep. But I know the drag link and tie rods are from Moog, ordered and install them myself. Will have a friend help with the moving, or just stick my go pro under the Jeep and set it to record and watch the video while doing it myself. If the pitman isn't moving, when doing this, how would I diagnose it down to the steer shaft or the box between the two? I'm in no way afraid to tear into this and wrench on it myself, but if something does seem complicated, I will sit there and read as much documentation and watch as many repair videos as I need to before attempting. :)
@@FlawedOffroad As for a local offroad shop, we don't have any here in Highlands County, Fl. I have to drive a good 60miles north before I hit one and they're all by appointment only. It sucks really, and the only time this Jeep see's off-road use is during hunting season around the WMA's.
@ yeah I just know the off-road shops know how to deal with these specific set of problems. I’m pretty sure there’s one down in Florida called JK land that I’ve heard of
No reason for a track bar on a YJ with leaf spring s
