Just a dad and his boys out enjoying the desert. Heck yeah
Hell yeah boys, good times. Loved the edit of minimal talking and more engine noises and video of the truck.
Bypass valves putting in work 💪🏻 Awesome build!
Crazy how casual 70 mph over those whoops looks. Christian just one hand on the wheel. Looks like a party boys.
It is super manageable once you get the feel for it! The steering feedback is not harsh either which is a huge benefit.
@@WingsWorldChannel PS I say buy the 418, weed the rear end over a season and build the big dog rear end next 🤣
Yes Nice truck & good choice I made a similar one and happy I did. I went with a Full Size Bronco my dad had one I liked but I did not want one of the year he had for me it was a solid front axle 79. I found a 87 TTB and went to work the 4 " long travel cut & turned beams really work. I rebuilt my readius arm to beams top & bottom connections and added a vertical piece to tie them together inside and added additional conection.templates from 1/8 wood in 3d and had them cut out clean welded it all up and installed an F250 slipshaft with big Ujoints on the passenger side some Warn hubs my top hats had blown up. I was going to run dual race runner shocks but I changed my mind and went with a better single per wheel and happy I did . I went with a set of Kings after I wieghd it front & rear separate with what I would carry when asked by BrettWith gears & Lockers installed and bought glass fenders for my tires to fit from a 96 part out I bought the glass fenders a hood grill & lights & core support too . te spindles the brake calipers bolt to them also . a new radiato=r HID upgrade improved the brakes & ambulance steering rods too A trip to santee for bedsides and motor mounts and trans mount too . I rebuilt my transfer case museld attached the oilerbetter an new chan and planetary gears It did great in the dunes at Pismo The king shocks were very good
Great to see some action again.
Get that prep done and the few little problems and get back out and give a look amongst some whoops and jumps.
You should do a driving tips video. Like throttle control when jumping and tips for climbing dunes. I feel like I can't find info on that anywhere
Chris CG one thing I learned when going down steep sand and you start to get sideways a bit. If you are in a 4x4 at least from my experience. is give it a little gas to straighten out if you can with the circustance. & having some speed at the bottom can help some to get sometimes.
I gave it a 👍just off the intro.
Sweet video! Dope to see this rig floating
Great job boys , very impressive going up comp hill , I know those whoops are no joke 3+ feet
Suspension is lookin dialed 🤘🏻
That was a nice catch on that bump that caught the drivers front, during that first run.
what a rad video!
Would love some mic/headset audio to go with the in-cab shots. Keep jammin guys!
I'm in the same boat as you guys. Got a 79' Chevy on beams and 4 link with a heads/ Cam 6.0 LS. The th400 trans is beefed up but my 9" rear end is my weak point, haven't broke a 3rd member yet... Cross fingers but when I took my truck out to Dumont dunes I found out it needs more power for the dunes. All in all its a great truck but I feel ya on the snowball effect! By the way you guys have been a huge inspiration of mine while building my truck. I've learned a lot from you guys and have taken a lot that you have taught me on how to build these desert trucks! Keep up the great work and content!
Hellyeah man !
What rear end options are you looking at ? I'm starting to look into that myself for my OBS Chevy build.
Well right now I’m just running a 3” trussed big bearing 9” housing and a standard 31 spline 3rd member with a spool and 31 spline axles, but I know they aren’t going to last running 37” BFG projects. Check out Wicked creations, they have a 3.5” housing that I plan on running with 40 spline axles and a 10” ring gear in a strange nodular 3rd member or a Evan Weller 3rd member.
Thank you for the kind comment! The snowball effect is real when you start messing with drivetrain. Im glad we have been helpful for your build!!
some drone shots of these runs would be awesome...or even some shots from a tripod
You don’t need more power. Just take some bald tires to skat track and have them make you paddles for the truck. They’ll be made specifically to your trucks power and gear ratio I believe. That alone will make a difference
But does the AC still work?
Ya boys
Having watched the evolution of the channel and the F150 over that time it might be time to put a successor truck on the design board. A truck where the drivetrain and the nameplate are the same maybe? Godzilla Ford, Hellcat Ram, ZL1 Silverado/Sierra OR PowerStroke, Cummins, DuraMax??? I have learned a lot from watch your methods and processes and applied a few of them to my projects. Keep up the great work working on rigs and taking us along by filming.
In what part of the suspension, is making that shattering noise?
Rad video. Not sure if this was this past weekend but if it was I’m bummed I missed ya!
*I was out there also
This was last Saturday!!
SIIIICK!!!! ❤
💯
that sqeeking and clunking would drive me crazy - but besides that its an awesome truck !
Whoops at Oldsmobile are no joke and that thing eats em hell yea great job
What motor are what tires are you running
I got to see you guys rip up olds, thing looks so sweet.
I think getting rid of the Toyo MT’s and going with a lighter weight tire will help the truck perform better, the Toyo MT I believe is the heaviest tire in the market, they weigh close to a 100lbs each. Awesome truck!
It is a heavy tire, but not by much when compared to any other offroad race tire
We would save a lot of weight by moving to a 40" BFG, that is the plan when these tires need to get replaced!
@@grahamkrivanek2315 I went from Toyo MTs to BFG KO2s the weight change made the truck drive waay better, rotating mass is real.
@@WingsWorldChannel awesome yes I heard the 40s KR3s weigh like a 37
@@mztruk6443 Right, I thought you had the RTs? But I was comparing them to another race tire like the KR or KR3s
So probably a simple answer but what is all that clacking we hear in the cab? Are they the heims? The straps? Is there a way to silence that?
This has been addressed in a few other comments!
You guys are the reason I've choose to build my obs it's 4x4 but I want it close to your daily
Man I want to go fast but that bypass noise is tough! I’ve got a set on the shelf for my ranger waiting to go in…
One of the reasons they wear headsets is so they don't have to listen to the 7000 pound typewriter. Music plays right through the intercom.
Peace! 🤣
That suspension is dialed af
How much whp?
Not enough 😂 it made like 275 to the tire when we got it dyno’d. For how much these trucks weigh, around the 475-500 range for horsepower and torque to the tire is optimal.
great truck ! looking for more videos on it. only question....what the hell is rattling around so much. dam annoying.
As mentioned in some other comments, that is the sound from the check valves in the bypass tubes on the bypass shocks. Since the cage is tied together through the entire truck, the sound echos inside the cab.
didn’t want to jump it off the top of Olds?
We would have liked to but unfortunately did not have a spotter. I also don't like the truck being on the limiter to get up the hill everytime so we kept that to a minimum haha
Love this truck, what’s all the clanking in the video?
I could be wrong, but I believe that sound is coming from the shocks and reservoirs...
It’s the bypass tubes opening and closing. Totally normal
Needs paddles!
14 minute 🤤😮💨💦
There he is!
Tow rig is a Chevy, race truck is a Ford 🤔 🤷🏼♂️
ive said it before and il say it again. dont beat on my truck to much man fuckkk no jk this is the damn trophy dad to the max, whats his trade cabinate maker ? whats dad do ? obviously Christian is assist superviser at jiffy lube lol and to talls jones is doing the collegde and learning solid works, drafting design etc. im sorry christian u da bomb digity dogg we all know what time it is , its purely jelly showing up in the pits as we bench race the two step outta the keyboard.. this is how i for see next 3 years. dad needs semi retirement so he can work on a tan and over see the boys biz plan. Christian dont be affraid to go balls deep here man take a chance on ur self ur plenty qualified to handle this scandal of down south east susp, design, consults, if jr can hustle some design work on the side, i got a idea and a source he could sweet talk my brother in law out of some of his over stacked pile of commercial/industrial store,shop,malls,resturants cabinet and booth, all finish work designs in fusion, solid, cad the normal suspects. just convert the sketch's to cad, send to c&c and donezo deal. incoming income to help cover the shop while Christian is 2" deep in Dom and chromo. its only gonna be the 1st year then shop will carry its own lugz. oh yeah u two living in the upstairs penthouse of the steel building shop. doesnt gotta be all the way out on ur land but maybe near barona out in the rollers. ive seen shop lots with ready to rock or ready to plop 35k of 2nd hand 1400 sq foot shop with large lofts... office up front, pea gravle drive way, il team up with pops and frame out , outdoor carports and mild spray booth, with donated concrete from youtube fellow enthusiast that we sign up for some tire carriers on the mall crawlers. just bneeds nhuge bbq, stage for punk band shows anything dirt crazy u can hustle 500 from on the week ends to buy tubing and consumables. this way dad can lock his Retirment funds up back into the money market acct. mom runs the merch website from home and il drop my Rado off for the labor for labor whoop scizzors.. after while jr will realize he likes and is good with the finishing puting the style of the inside cab and all the fixings packaged in , get to brokering all the goto pumpers, steering wheels, seats, lizard skin, dash kits, guages, nav sys, audio and illuminations, the stuff that brings the rig to the line up in style and function ability... maybe even learn em up how to lay some 3 coats 2 stage and moderate coat single stage . toss some pearl and flakes with extra Hardner, super fatty clear coats, shrink tube all the damn hose clamps. u guys are on way to consistent 1/4 million per year till 5 years then ur up there with big do double g's pay pops off so him and moms can go fly arounf every where and dishes are done.. tell me that's not what circles the dinner table. use this huge network as ur stepping stones dont b modest u earned already not sure if uve locked that in or
U got 100 grand in a old truck to skip on the sand. 🤔
It goes with out saying that you have never went through 3 foot whoops at 100 MPH in a linked truck that is set up right 😉 ... because it is better than any drug and more addictive 😂 makes your balls tingle 😂😊
6:23 target aquired that guys utv lol.
