  • @acme9538
    @acme9538 14 днів тому

    Just ordered this in tan sort of as an 'upgrade' to my original Yeti Roadie 20, which is 15 years old now but still working great ! The reason(s) I justified the 'upgrade' were . . . #1, The Size- I have the 20 mounted in my small 15 foot Boston Whaler, and while it's fine, saving even a little real estate will be very welcomed. #2, The Weight - Though not a huge difference, when the 20 is loaded it's pretty damn hefty . . . saving a few pounds will be nice. #3, The Handle - The Roadie 20's stainless steel handle is nice for short distances, but the 15's shoulder strap looks much better for longer transports. #4, The Latches - The Roadie 20's latches are still holding up fine . . . but the new flip latches on the 15 look a lot more convenient. #5, The Basket Option - While certainly not 'important' . . . the option to have a 'dry sandwich loft' is very cool. The fact that they kept the tie-downs and drain sealed the deal . . . if they hadn't kept those the 15 would be a 'No Go' for Me. For my particular needs, going down in volume from 20 to 15 isn't an issue as I only use it as a 1 or 2 person day cooler. ( I always have spare room in the 20) I'm not expecting the world in terms of ice retention . . . I realize a little 15 sized cooler only has so much thermal capabilities. It's not that hot where I live, and if I can get a solid 24 hrs out of it, theat's more than enough. $200.00 is a bit of splurge for something I really don't 'need', but rather 'want' . . . so yeah, I'g guilty there. Lastly, I really hope the build quality is up to par, as I've read some complaints about quality control on these new 15's. Fingers crossed. (Upodate /Warannty Claim Submitted ) . . . I received the tan roadie 15. Got it home, unboxed and was very disappointed with the build quality. While it 'looks' cool and the design is 100% great . . . the seams at the lid and the top of the cooler itself very were mismatched almost all the way around the perimeter of the cooler. I really wouldn't care if it was in just one or 2 spots . . . but it's all the way around. One of the corners sticks out almost an 1/8". This is a break in the insulation seal and will only get worse with time. I compared it to my 15 year old Roadie 20, and it's night and day . . . other than a very 'slight' warping of the lid, that cooler is still 100% solid. I can totally see what's going on . . . the Roadie 15 is a 4 piece cooler that doesn't appear to be roto-molded in the same way the Roadie 20 was. These are possibly injection molded. There are 4 shells that appear to be assembled / bonded together to form the cooler itself. So at every joint / seam there is a chance for mis-alignment in the manufacturing process if everything isn't perfect. I understand why they probably did this . . . cost savings . . . but Yeti sort of created their own issue by switching construction techniques. I think I just received an exceptionally bad one . . . I've started the warranty exchange process . . . if they ship me one that is better I'll be 100% satisfied. I will update here after Yeti resolves the issue.

    • @JDOffline
      @JDOffline 9 днів тому

      I've had good experiences with the warranty process and hopefully Yeti will stand behind their product. I have an old 20 as well and all the factors you pointed out make the 15 a better choice assuming the construction of the cooler itself is up to par. Keep us posted on what happens! JD

    Good afternoon. I do have a question for you that I was hoping you could help me with. I have the exact same jeep as you. And 83 CJ seven with the exact same set up. I too am having steering issues and I have already rebuilt the entire front end. Just like you, I went with a rebuilt steering gearbox from O’Reilly‘s. It has proven to be disastrous. I’m considering a redhead steering gearbox until I saw your video for the PSC. In your opinion, do you feel that PSC would be better than the redhead. I can tell there is a significance and price difference, also I’ve recently replaced the power steering pump from O’Reillys as well. And I’m wondering will I need to replace the gearbox and the hydraulic system to match PSC. Essentially I would like my results to be just like yours. Tight steering thanks in advance for your help advice and great job on the videos.

    • @JDOffline
      @JDOffline 29 днів тому

      I have no regrets with the PSC box and use a factory style power steering pump I believe I got from Summit Racing (there are more videos after my engine swap of the power steering pump set up). I have heard nothing but good things about the Redhead boxes but have never used one and as far as I know, PSC is the only one out there at the time I did my research that makes a truly brand new gear box. This has been several years ago so there may be more competitors out there today. I have a PSC pump on my camaro with an Oreilly's pump and have the same results as the Jeep. Hope this helps. JD

    That Roadie 15 is just about as perfect of a day cooler for one or two people as can be made. The size is perfect.

    What would you say the lifespan with normal wear and tear is for these ?

      I bought my first Yeti in 2012 and still have it. No issues after 12 years and still going strong. JD

    I just bought the agave green soft cooler size 20. Using for day stuff not where I can’t access more ice etc. I might get one of these to keep in the back of my truck with less need for maintaining and adding ice. Also bought the duffle 100 bc I need a lot of waterproof space for truck bed occasionally.

      The 32 is a great size and I use that and the new 15 quite a bit. I also have the large duffle bag, it's perfect for the back of a truck. It will hold up well, mine are great years later. JD

    I know this video is old, but I just busted out my exact same sander that I haven’t used in several years to try to give it another shot. I used it for a year or two before replacing it with a grizzly 72 inch knife sander. I’m just a hobbyist and use the sander three or four times a week, so I would not call myself an expert. When I bought the jet, I bought it for the quality name, but was immediately disappointed. The biggest problem for me is adjusting the tracking on the belt portion. You have to use, an Allen wrench and a set screw to keep it in place. It’s a multi step process to adjust the freaking tracking, which should be a simple procedure as it is on the grizzly. The motor bogs down and the tension on the belt portion is not enough, because the spring is too weak for the unit. Jet should be embarrassed to sell this under their brand name.

      I agree, there are much better belt sanders on the market now for sure. I still have this and do still use it on occasion. JD

    That's awesome. That is my next build, but I will be using 1 1/4 angle since I have a lot already. Thank You

    Great job, JD, my question is on the metal ring welded to the expanded metal to hold the weber what size is the metal? Thank You

      @@bill.Latham thank you. It was actually a very thin piece of scrap metal I found at my local metal yard. It’s prob 1 inch in height and thin enough to be pliable. You could really make it any way you wanted to but I happened to find that piece. Best and most used project I’ve ever made. Still going strong today. JD
