Jeep Wrangler Mercedes Diesel Conversion / Build Part 9
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 гру 2019
- part 9 finishes the major parts of this build. this slip yoke eliminator and extended driveshaft IS NOT nessesary for everyone. i was VERY picky about my clearences. i use this jeep off road ALLOT and wanted to never worry about that oil pan smashing into the pumpkin. there was a few filming errors and camerman errors so i consider this video incomplete and im not super happy with it. i hope its still entertaining and something can be learned. thanks everyone !

binge watching this series, the banter between you is priceless
Thanks. I hope you like it. We have a future project lined up. Do lots of stuff on this channel.
“...Like scumbag thumbs!” LOL 😂
Great series...I plan on doing this swap someday with my 2.5 but after seeing what you guys went through I’m second guessing going Diesel......lol...can’t wait for episode 10 to see the completed project
Thanks so much. Curious. What throws you off about it after watching it ?
Dude seriously awesome and great series cant wait for the last vid to come out and cant wait for what ideas you have next!!!
Thanks bowman !! Trying to put those little cameras to use. Hard to find a good spot to mount them under the jeep. Want some shots of that new driveshaft spinning.
A Guy Named Alfons best thing i can tell you is dont use suction cup mount get one of the sticky ones with 3m tape on it and semi permanently mount it under there then in the future you can use the mount and you can get the adapter for it to be able to turn the camera and get different shots of your suspension
Cant wait to see!!
Thanks for checkin in. Im working on the finish of the build video now.
Alfons you’re the best thanks for the series
wow thank you for putting up with us. really. i cant say how much it means to both of us that people watch and comment.
very nice! cool to see it finally runs and drives,now the fine tuning part begins.
it has been a pleasure watching this build,keep uploading!
Thanks so much. We already have another project we want to do. We will start filming that after the holidays. And the finale of this build yet.
Wha... "To be continued"!? You know you and Kirk aren't the only impatient ones...lol...
I really wanted to dedicate a whole video to the driving and few touch ups. I really appreciate the comments and the interest. UA-camrs like you helped keep me motivated in the dark times of this jeep. Thank you.
You want the pinion angle 1-2 degrees lower than the driveshaft. Go to Adams driveshafts website, they have a diagram on how to set the angle with that style of driveshaft.
If yours is too low, when you point it up, it’ll compress it so it won’t be over-extended like it is
I will look into that. Thanks. I does drive nice with no vibrations or anything but its certainly over extended.
I looked for the answer in this series of videos, but didn't find it: Did you use the wrangler's original fuel tank and pump? and the sending hoses?
What a marvelous job. I'm prepping to try and install my Isuzu 4JG2T and it's transmission into my YJ.
I touch on that in the very first video. I upgraded the tank to a factory 20 gallon tank. ( it was an option) but it is all factory. And i think its part 7 shows what we did with the line. The isuzu is a great engine. You should make videos.
@@AlfonsLC Wow! so the Jeep gas tank and pump is suitable for diesel too? Is the pressure enough for the diesel's high pressure pump?That's wonderful news! I will make videos, when I get around to it.
Joshua Kaboha i used no fuel pump other than the mercedes injector pump. Just needed a line.
Jesus Christ! Give me Kirk’s address. I’ll send him a snap ring plier set!!!!!
Haha. He will never use them !
My prediction.... this thing will run out of fuel.
Who tows people with ratchet straps.
But what do you know you dont wear a dust mask or own a saw that spreads water.
@A Guy Named Alfons I can out tow, out cut, out water, and out wood stove anybody.
Stone Men ur saw doesnt have a water jacket. U should get one. Lots of people worried about ur lack of knowledge.
@A Guy Named Alfons it has 1 they are dumb
