Please make a "clean your bungholes" t-shirt!!
One of my favorite diesel builds so far because no one really builds this year as much as other years. Can’t wait to see it complete.
Why is no one talking about the stacks of dimes everywhere? good work man.
Nice weld beads. Looks like another pro grade job!
Great channel! I would love to see a Dana 35 TTB Cut and Turn tutorial.
You did a great job laughing and not ruining the shot when you said clean out your bungholes. I am really enjoying your channel. I have tried filming myself while working on my baja bug but its tougher then you guys make it look...thanks for the inspirations
Work of art. Sick.
Bungholes hehe keep Killin it boss love the fab work
its worth the blood sweat and tears!
I've been fabricating for at least 20 years on mostly 4x4 vehicles that I owned, you are an Awesome Fabricator and simply Amazing too watch and hear your thought process 👍
Excellent work, we'll detailed. I'm working on an F350 frame and will be doing something similar. Nice welds btw
👍
That cut on the secondary support pipe cleaned up soooo nice! Man, I appreciate your dedication to getting prep right. I need to be more like that! Also, please make "go back and clean out your bung holes" a T-shirt with a vector graphic of your radius arm! Please?
That has me wanting to build a set for my 3 twin I beam trucks. That guy knows how to weld. If you don't scrape or cut yourself building or working on something, you ain't doing it right
Your weld work is just so clean looking!!
Thanks man! I appreciate the support
welds are always so clean. love how much redundancy to strength and attention to cleanliness you guys put into your work
Nice! Clean work, straight to the point, educational, and included tips! Great burns too! I bought my 4130 and plate moooonths ago to do my radius arms and now I’m inspired to get it done! Thanks 🤙🏽
Nice work, looking fwd to when you get to mounting the shocks.
Tomorrow ;)
Howdy howdy guys, Johnny from laguna hills here. Question : my guess is that's a general use band saw maybe even a wood type machine that's been altered over to cut steel via tossing a steel cutting band Saw blade on it. I've been told it's possible to slow a machine down by changing wheel sizes as well. Curious to what that set is ur cutting on although it's a tad quick, it's cutting sweet as pie.. Lol 🇺🇸 emmm pie
It’s a wood/metal bandsaw with variable speed motor on it, I just flip a knob and it will slow down for metal or can speed up for wood 👍🏼 not sure on what the speed is set at though
This is awesome!! Would you consider selling a setup?
Dude 😎nice werk📹🎥🍕🍻
Great video series, your fab skills are top notch too.
Sick
Hey Christian, diggin this build. Got a question. How do you know how long to build the radius arms? Also how do you know where (how far back) to put the radius arm mounts? I have a 88 Bronco and want to build my own. Planning on a C&T bean from Solo and their 4” Deaver coils.
16:08 my guy had himself cracking up with that one lol.
great works guys love the videos and some pretty sick builds!!!
Great job!!
Guys, congratulations. Your videos are really interesting. I’ve watching like a week ago and I still don’t know if you have a video of the tools you use and your garage ser up. I guess many people don’t have a sho or a lot of tools but you show it can be done. Keep going 👊😎
Do you have any videos on building A arms?
🤙
You guys ever considered make a set for a 4x4 f250?
A nice job but I have two queries first I was taught to put a chamfer on the tube end that the heim bung goes in, this way your weld is stronger as you can get more weld in with the penetration secondly should you not have drilled a drain hole at the axle so any water getting past the heim joint will run out, just a thought, I have had water do this.
I love your builds and wish we had the desert to use then I would dig deep in the kitty and buy a truck and build a pre-runner but not possible in the UK.
whats up dude! If you look at 5:27 in the video you can see before I welded the bung into the tube how big the chamfer was between the two peices. You are absolutely right about giving it enough room to penetrate, especially on this thick of material. Every bung we use from Kartek and for the most part ever one ive seen in general has a chamfer on it already so you dont need to on the tubing side. I chamfer all my tube joints as well so the bead profile lays down nicer when im welding them out. Its all in the details! haha, as far as the drain hole goes, im not worried about it, the heim and jam nut seal the end of the tube off water tight and ive never had an issue with it on our two other trucks setup like this. We dont mud/water bog these trucks either so they never are submerged in the first place. - Christian
Dimes
You guys are awesome! Where did you get the welding table from?
It’s a certi-flat weld table 🤘🏼
Orale vatos estas chingon con el acero. Por favor show videos on some classic Tundras. Gracias. ✌🏼
what band saw are you guys using?
It’s a JET 18” wood/metal bandsaw
@@TheChristianEwing right on brotha, im gonna check that out.. thanks!
Badass work man. Question for you...I was considering swapping the steering links on my 97 CCLB4X4 OBS with all heim joints. Do heims ride as good as ball joints? Deciding whether to swap or just go with new ball joints...
Heims have much less give and they are really noisy /clicky in some cases, unless you are 4Xing lots it's probably not worth the upgrade
Thanks dude! You can go to a heim steering setup on the truck, which will make it more rigid than the balljoints are. There is no "ride" difference per say just the deflection of the balljoints isnt there anymore and you dont have to worry about a balljoint coming apart on you. Keep in mind, the cost of maintance on heims is going to be more and the chances of a shop aligning it for you may go out the window depending on how you go about building the steering. If you decide to do it, do not cheap out on hiems either, run the FK brand "JMX" series heims or youll replacing them alot more often than you'd anticipate haha I have learned the hard way. - Christian
Wings World Much appreciated Christian. Maybe I will start with the drag link and see how it works. I need some big heims for the traction bars I’m going to fab up, will def hit your guy @ Kartek. I do have something I’d like to talk with you about. It’s about a truck but it’s a weird situation I wanted to chat with you about since you’re down in SD. Is there a way to contact you at your convenience?
How do you decide when and where you tig weld and when and where you mig weld. You look proficient at both. Thank you
Thanks for the compliment dude, I will typically Mig stuff that is over 3/16" material just because the time spent double or triple passing a part is extremely time consuming, like in this case doing all this 1/4" to 1/4" stuff would take me forever to fully weld out haha! I enjoy tig welding, but I tend to do it on more accent/beauty oriented parts or in spots where a mig weld will interfere with clearance on other things - Christian
Wings World I’ve been mig welding for years. Just picked up my first tig welder and started practicing. It is definitely a different skill set. I got a Lincoln square wave 175 pro. Nothing fancy but should do the job while I learn.
I always clean my bungholes
How did you decide what you're ride hight would be
what bandsaw are you using?
Serious question.. would you consider building a set of these same radius arms for my '96 F250 2wd? Looking online I can't find a single set of radius arms for sale; OEM, extended, nothing... would you consider selling me a set?
Im pretty sure Positive caster is what give your steering the "return to center" action. Are you sure you caster wasnt 5.5deg positive from the factory? If the top of the beam leans toward the cab, that is considered positive. Negative caster would be toward the front of the truck.
How did u go about calculating the length to extend the arm?
There was no calculation really, you can make the radius arms as long as you’d like, actually the longer the better to an extent since the longer it is the less caster change you will see 👍🏼 but I just placed the radius arm mounts where I could and then set my wheel base, and that determined how long my radius arm was going to be
@@TheChristianEwing thanks. Got a ttb 4x4 d50 that I'm hoping to build. Has Dana 44 currently
Love what you're doing! What bandsaw are you using?
Appreciate the support man! Its a JET 414418 18-Inch Metal/Wood Vertical Bandsaw
I was gonna ask the same question but I just scrolled to the comments very helpful you replying! 🤙🏽
When u make a crazy rip notch out can the toss piece b used back in for added strength in any way or just melt down recycle scrap
"your words after unpause" I can't write ever thing down but, 12:53 2 times checked counter, example your & my words timing in sync.
Друг подари калёса я такой же сделаю👍
spiritualy duming it down:
Ahh yes clean out your bung holes guys lol
In nature Godly way a branch of a tree it actually get feed into or grafted into main line. Out from growing/branching out.
Always clean your bung holes
Still wish we got to see you fabricating rather than just theory
What do you mean?
@@ChristianEwingVD mainly your welding wiggle technique. At the start you show it but a far shot that's sped up :(
Not a welder in any way not sure how much u can ask or expect from a weld done proper butt vs better 2, 3, gusset, over lay 4 sides/all sides seam.
edit that period/punctuation into ...
Did u play/weld piano at 5 yrs old? There r 50 yr old guys 25-30yrs off on job knowledge that would struggle or could not do what u do fab up from scratch geometry. Un bolting & bolting adding mounts same repeated up grade is nothing compared to large car manufacture w/team of engineers working on suspension design w/computer CAD. Closest I can think of would b a racing teams in house 2 main design back at shop head fabricators.
100k starter seed money if prt of the breathing bonus body. Do more of this work calling from a proper shop fab shop even if on your property. Huge doors & heat & air & tools & help. If God is willing to back stop u 100k then u should b able to borrow at least similar or double or triple that. See Bible talents tired old word.
All of heavenly & creation was opposing my work crazy but pic of what GOD endured where all of HIS creation was running on auto sinning & opposing HIM. SONIC BOOM! crack bass note your windows just shattered.
I hve seen thousands & thousands tens of thousands of dollars worth of your fab work. Hope u "got paid for it" at least earthly bs fictional digital credits & spent it like sailor or better yet eternal credits or charity, or some portion of,ie tithing some form. The bas is bounding on your channel.
Let them work it out themselves does sound good last word of GOD if time is up. U better hope I had something else to say like when I asked for mercy for sodom & GOD drew the line OT. I get to draw the lines NOW. 11 lives about fucking time. SON would hve ruled on high diff version of word but ppl of planet r 6k plus ready to take training wheels off. Dad's hand still near.
in the know on the beast payroll serving reading for stealing willfully enslaving planet talented or not = eternally damned unless u rate retuning alternate reality(not fallen shit option) we r in the no exception darkness & damned burn them all phase.
I need talent but I would rather clean sweep 6k of rebellion & start bare metal clean sheet & hve completely new foundation then hve even 5% "rust/cancer,filth ball swamp weed potted, pitted, chi-com fake or false weak shit.
I see a digital keep playing out to perfect degeer never loses a sec of video. GOD will & heaven ly editing crew will constructed a digital Bible NOW version w/ my opponents video & my word or other sides song & if subtel jokes HE will give u the back story & pause for effect just modern video/movie effect. & digital movie wow. U & your video can't b prt of word if u r dead earthly eternal like damned, not prt of creation or light. So it's truly a blk or white bright or dark no gray involved color video NOW interact movie word.
