Not to be the safety Sally but as someone who lives in a full body harness for work, hooking the line into the hip rings is going to mess you up way worse if you do actually fall. D-ring by the shoulder blades is the preferred standard.
Don’t ignore this guy 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼
Good advice, didn't know that. Will change the setup. But the way its designed is to not allow you to get far enough to the edge to go over. If you did... you forgot to hook it up... oooops, lol.
Watch out, Josh might get pissy with you since you told him he was doing something wrong. Like he did in this video @ 14:04. 😂😂😂
Matt get some gutter guards to help cut down on those times on the roof .
Yeah get gutter guards!
I appreciate you showing the roof cleaning. When you were pressure washing the jeep I saw the ladders and was curious. I live on old farm land, so no old growth trees. I have one river birch they put in when they built the house. No leaves to worry about in the gutters/on the roof.
One of the first things that we made in shop classes! The school I went to back in the day it wasn't shop classes you did all
3 wood work, metal work & automotive! Lunch was12:00-12:30 then shop till 3:30 ! We made our own jack stands, 3 brass hammers and all kinds of things! Our teachers were great because they offered after school classes till 5:30 every school day & Saturdays for extra credits you came in and did an 8 hour day! Christmas break, spring break and summer break they were there 8 hours a day!They were dedicated to making sure we would be ready for the reality of the world!
Love your how to videos. Part of why I am a patreon supporter. Used a ton of them to learn on while building my cherokee.
Great job, can't wait to see it out wheeling again,who wouldn't be happy receiving lunch with a beautiful smile like that from the lunch Lady, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
13:35 Lol whos channel did you see that trick on? Usually do that when making countertop templates
20:25 Glad yall being safe 💕
23:00 what kind of paint do you guys use? Por15? Eastwood? Chassi saver?
PS- loved the talking at the end about all the different rock crawler parts and jargon 👍
Thanks for another great video
33:40 Portals on the Scorpion 😍😍😍
Awesome and outstanding as always
What ever the little oragne lizard was it looked awesome!
Looks like a poisonous eastern red spotted newt
30:25 that little toad almost gets squashed!!! look in path of back driver tire!! lol
Au Jus is the French translation for THE GREASE!!! That has always been stuck in the back of my mind anytime I'm asked if I would like some of it... 😂😂😂
Well it's great grease!
@bleepinjeep Well, I guess you will be getting mine if I ever get the opportunity to have supper with all y'all! All you have to do is, when the waitress sets mine on the table, you will take mine and use all of it, plus you have to polish off yours as well!
Most of the flavor of a cut of meat is in the fat
There a tool call a t bevel might have worked for figuring that angle or a contour gauge but honestly the way you did worked just fine
I put a long arm 4 link suspension under my jeep some time ago and I been driving it but I don't think I ever adjusted them right. And the track bar adjustment might be off. A video of how to set all those up would be awesome.
Your shop is looking really nice
Thanks 👍
I'm jealous I don't have a lunch lady. That looks like a great lunch well you two deserve a great lunch. God bless guys!!✌️🇺🇲
So good, she is awesome!
Curious what happened when you was towing your jeep to Utah and the ori was leaking I have 14 " ori but haven't had it on the trailer but a few hours each trip out
Idk why it was doing that but I assume it overheated on the trailer. I aired them down on the way back, then Didn’t do anything special and they seem fine now. Less some oil probably.
A video on how to determine link arm lengths, angles, and placement. Suspension geometry looks very complicated and important.
Panhard rods, working on a 5 link setup and struggling to do the math... currently dealing with massively adjustable brackets I have made and still not sure on position for rollover centre etc
Always EXCELLENT 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I would love to see what you recommend for a 87 Suzuki samurai suspension for rock crawling and mudding
Josh's rig is always nice to see. He and paul from fab rats seem to have the same right foot.
You mean no throttle control? 😆
I’m strange. I like to tie down by the frame not axles but cool lil tabs.
Matt you need some of those gutters with a screen cover you won't need to get up roof again. I got them because I was feeling like I going to fall off roof and besides I I'm getting older and I don't want to be keep in bed for temp time or tor the rest of my life. Thanks for listening.
Get the y hose to fill the two ori at the same time and pressure
One suggestion on your Hyd Steer. When possible you should use 90* adapters instead on 90* hose fittings. A Straight Hose fitting will take much more abuse. Just a Thought
Never heard of that but haven't had any issues thus far. I always use trail serviceable fittings too just in case.
Nice change. Maybe i missed why no diff skid? Also, badmitton rackets are better fornwood bee squishing!
Might have to get a badminton 🏸 racket then
Use Berrymans B12 carb chock cleaner you'll be glad you did.
I use that centering trick on acoustical ceilings everyday.
Nice
A carpentry bevel gauge would be the right tool to copy the angle for the gussets.
I just uploaded a suck down winch demo video for a couple Sundays from now using one of my rc trucks lol.
A video on how your front 4link is set up and how you don’t have to run a track bar.
What steering mods can be dond to decrease the turning radius (more wheel angle) on a 2006 superduty dana 60 fitted to a 2007 JKU with an Artec truss and Teraflex long arm kit?
More throw on the ram and or clearance the stops. Lots of info on this in our scorpion 3.0 series and maybe even the original scorpion build series
I won't tell you what you did wrong lol but in woodworking circles there is a wonderful item called a sliding bevel. Essentially 2 pieces of flat with bolt and wing nut allowing tou to set angles.
I needs to make one, I had something similar but because of the tube circumference interference and overhangs on the truss it wouldn't work as intended.
On the rear ends, front and rear, can the lower hub be above the axle, allowing more clearance?
I would assume a paddle, or a pump, would be needed to lubricate corectly.
Not sure I understand
@@bleepinjeep the bulb that hangs down where the large gear is
---------u--------
@Matt I know what was wrong with the PRESSURE WASHER. It had a HUGE CHUNK OF TN. ORANGE NOT FAR FROM IT. ( LOOKED LIKE UR BUSH HOG )
Good Video Guys. You need to send the alignment tools out to Mike and Shawn at Dirt Billy Deluxe
For an east coast JKU rock crawler what would you say is the best axle width for 40s to 43s. Fusion does 70 and 72" or custom to what ever you want.
I'd recommend 72" 💯. A lot of people have really found the 05+ super duty width to be a good size. That's exactly how I setup my racecar and how I built my custom Fab9 axles. From Michigan, btw🤘
Well, wider is great especially with rear steer and it offers stability. but it can mess you up at the same time when going through narrow V notches and tight trees. So either way has its pros and cons. Don't forget wheel offset makes a difference too.
@@bleepinjeep I'd agree that wheel offset makes a difference. What I would add to my preference is having a relatively high backspacing to keep wheels tight to axles and wider axles to keep a good width. Helps a ton with on and offroad characteristics, due to scrub radius reduction and less environmental input to steering.
@@gearheadfabworksif it’s a rock crawler tho the scrub radius helps you climb better. You don’t want it too tucked in
@@nicholassbardella6045 certainly a give and take. For a tube chassis crawler that is doing highly technical trails, that's a conversation worth having. A JKU, doesn't usually scream pure rock crawler. Most drivers would need a couple years of practice to understand how to use larger scrub radius to their advantage.
Love to see how to adjust coil overs and how to correctly measure for 3-5" lift
Josh's jeep is a badass rig too you guys know how to build them I just want to know where Jeremy is ❤
Jeremy moved away to start a new career in fiber optics.
What did you paint the axle with?
Krylon farm and implement
Matt, what is the red mesh that you have on your steering ram, and why?
Thats just the protector sleeve that it ships in, IDK why but I always keep them on there and on the links just to see how long they will last and to spur conversations like this one 😄
The lunch lady deserves a raise.
I'm no suspension pro, but I set my air pressure in my shocks at full droop. Is there anything wrong with doing it that way? It makes it where there is no back and forth adjusting
I would follow the manufacturers instructions. On these the top pressure sets ride height which wouldnt work out well if the shock was at full droop because you wouldnt be able to determine ride height.
Matt, when will your 12k freedom winch lines be available for purchase?!?!
Looking at this fall fingers 🤞
Ok, thanks.
Where did you get the front steer arms?
Pretty sure they came from barnes as well. Check out their steering category
So when are you getting portals on the scorpion? Party on Garth 🎉
what paint are you using on axle?
We used krylon farm and implement on this one.
In the beginning you said the scorpion crawler had 2 issues you wanted to address. Obviously the ram was 1, but what was 2? I must have missed it if you said it.
Good catch! I didn't mention it in case we make a part 2 😁 the lower link mounts protruding below the frame rails is the only issue I have now that bothers me. But that's a lot harder if not impossible to fix.
@@bleepinjeep yea I remember you spending a hell of a lot of time on those, adding that curved piece in the middle and all. That would definitely be quite the difficult fix!
Harbor freight has a pretty good mag drill that won't break the bank.
Might have to buy one
Get you a T bevel !
Spotted some hard drives 🤔 not a bad idea having one for each year like that. I might copy-cat you.
2TB usually lasts about a year or 2. Another handy tip... Name all of your folders the date, "2024.05.15 Then the Topic". It makes sorting so much easier!
@@bleepinjeep that's a good idea thank you. I'll add the date from now on 👍🏻
Change those tires gawd!!!!!
90 chevy s10 4x4 bad motor and trans short bed for sale 500 bux. Middle tennesse.
Theres a fella out there that built a badass rig and its also called "The Scorpion." I think his name is Soni Honneger. Might have to challenge him for the right to the name Scorpion?
Nahh, pretty sure there's a critter that crawls on the ground that beat both of us to the name.
Milestar is an old Spanish word. Means thin sidewall.
Ducks away!
Hey Matt how do you and Josh know each other?
Well he started off as a patreon supporter that lived close by and asked to come help on a project.
One piece reinforced. That is a crazy complex set up.
You could use gloves to protect your hand from hot ass steel
Milestar Patagonia tires are GARBAGE. Stop supporting that company
Came to say the same thing.
Hey Josh you keep it up with your diet your babies will be born naked lol
Pats suck! Free shitty tires are still not worth running.
I don't know it for fact but assume he gets them free or deeply discounted. Especially if he's cutting 3 sidewalls in one outing. They seem like they might be OK for Moab or Sand Hollow and probably on the street but I just don't see them being a good choice for snow, mud, loose rock, etc. I was given a set a couple years ago for letting them use my rig in a photo shoot. I gave them away to a buddy who doesn't crawl and kept my (then) PitBulls. On Iroks currently and have a new set of Mickeys in the shop waiting to go on.
I've seen enough patagonias with sidewall issues that I would never buy them
Need to have Gutter Guards installed on those gutters so you never have to clean the gutter again…
That's a myth. Only works if you don't have overhead trees.
Matt ,gutter guards please!
Stay off that roof
Have them on the house, they require almost just as much maintenance.
Your viewers hate to have to turn down the volume for music and back up again for talking.
Man please get a set of real tires for that thing.
I thought it’s one flaw was the operator
pArTy
Why are all the videos now having music that is 4 times the volume as the speaking volume. These videos make you jump to turn the volume up and down just so we can hear the speaking portions. Do better when editing to make the volume of the music the same so there isn't a massive jump in volume. It really kills us who are limited on volume when trying to view and support these channels.
