- It seems no matter how much work and money and time we put into this Jeep it just doesn't seem to want to keep living...

I’m not following the Jeep, I’m following you 👍
I enjoy the repair videos as much as the wheeling videos
If Justine has every wondered if you have commitment issues, just refer to Bird.
Lmao
😂😂😂
Man, I’m so sorry to hear of the issues you are having with your TJ. I get it, but take it from me, you’ll be back into a TJ eventually.
😂 “shaking like a 1969 tractor” 😂
I love that artwork on your rear side window
Sorry to see Big Bird go, but I totally get it. I can't believe how much work and $$$ you keep putting into it, but I did really enjoy watching you work and spend money lol...
Sell the TJ and take Justine on a nice vacation. She’s the MVP for putting up with the “TJ things” over the years I’ve watched the channel.
Gladiator is the future! As someone that also has a trail limo (F150) looking forward to some content made by long bois in Ontario trails!
Scotch line was discussed at last OF4WD meeting. Hopefully this clean up is the last time.
Did scotch line last week end with my friend. I didn’t see any garbage over there.. i think its okay now .. Don’t know 100% sure we did the trail at midnight
That’s awesome to hear! Thanks for the updates guys!
You’re not wrong about the vacation either lol
took me like 30 minutes to get that plug at the rear of the ignition rail apart you did it in 5 seconds lol
Hey Justine, hey Mikey!!!! JUST IMAGINE , IF you would have sold Big Bird 8 months ago she'd be in the south now and off your hands. If it's just those 2 I WOULDN'T REPLACE THEM ALL JUST THOSE 2.
Wicked mud art. Great video
Compression test and put some air pressure into cylinder and listen for leaks
Was beginning to wonder at which point you would move it unto the next person who will wrench on it. Definitely save your money in these uncertain times...houses are not getting cheaper.
Great job!!
I love it "I found a guy on youtube watched 30 secs and where good to go lets hit it" HAHA made me laugh bro
You can search my comment in the past videos , told you couple of times to sell the tj and invest in gladi ..
TJ will take 5 minutes to climb a wet rock and Gladi will make the same climb in one attempt!!
You didn’t brought that jl for pampering . I wouldn’t keep a car if its break down more than twice a month.. I really appreciate your patience broh ..
Still you finding time for the repair 🙀
I totally agree man
Good show Mike 92 degrees here in Arkansas getting dry not as fun when it's dry LOL
try moving the injectors to a diff location to see if the is any change
The day you bought the gladiator the TJ’s fate was sealed.
how about making big bird into a rock crawler with 37s and new axles
I would rather put money into the gladiator. I’ve spent enough on this TJ already that I don’t want to put more into it
I hear you man its frustrating. I have 2014 jk and after spending lots for lift tires and all kinds of mods ...now i have death wobble .... New track bar ordered 😢😢
That was me 4 years ago. I’ve since replaced an engine, two transfer cases and countless other parts lol I just don’t want to keep dumping money into it
Totally get it and like the other guy said I fallow you not big bird . But watching you wrench is definitely educational and interesting to watch . Helps you realize you can do most of the stuff yourself.
@t9outdoors984 working on this thing has definitely taught me a lot and it’s also a great place to teach yourself and make mistakes because it’s not a very expensive vehicle. I definitely have more confidence in working on my other stuff now.
You can sell big bird and put your money into the Gladiator. In the end you will be in the same boat. If you intend to use the Galadiator to off road like big bird , you’ll be in a worse situation. Gladiator will start to break and it’s harder and more money to fix.
Yeah, people say that, but it’s funny that every single one of my friends that I’ve wheeled with for the past five years that doesn’t have a TJ doesn’t have any problems. Everyone else I wheel with maybe has one or two repairs a year because they don’t drive an old tired Jeep. But I guess keep watching maybe it’ll be interesting.
LOL ... at the end when you said "Let it rest" ... I thought you said "Let it RUST"
Close enough lol
Get those 2 you just pulled and get them cleaned. The other guy John i think his name is that was helping u with bird to redo the body work. He might know someone who does injector work
23:48 that's what she said
Just remember your pushing alot of water pressure so leaks will show.. p.s it's time to sell...
I really enjoy my 03 TJ but I took on a part time job to pay for it and upgrades. It’s been fairly good but we beat on it.
Ya I definitely beat on mine too but it’s here to have fun with and I’m not gonna baby it
It’s blown headgasket between 3-4 common on the 4.0 do compression test it’s blowing back and forth between the 2
At this point it can’t be anything else
Yes sry was in the middle of watching was like oh crap Iv had a few do that to me
Just empty every pocket 😅 am I right ? Same with mine, but I would keep the Jeep just use it as a back up ,
I just noticed the drawing on the window lol. Who did that?
Justine
Have you done a video on changing spark plugs that would also apply to my 2016?
No that would be a model I haven’t worked on actually
@@SmokinMonkeyOG 😢
Tip. 😊 If you suspect that you have to bad fuel injector, and or coil, switch the suspected bad injector, or coil, with one of the cylinders that is functioning correctly, and if you're, issue moves to the cylinder that was previously good, and you're cylinder that was misfiring, is now running correctly, then you have isolated the problem. 👍. P.S. if you dabb a little little grease on your rubber O-rings, when you reinstall your injectors, you don't have to fight, with the injectors, to get them in the fuel rail, and or intake manifold and you're less likely to damage the O-ring it's self. 👍 😉 . 🙃
Yup I just didn’t want to take it apart more than once. I also did lube every o ring
Oh my god ... I just had a thought (I have those occasionally) ... BB is yellow not because it is a bird but because it is a LEMON
Ya I’ve thought this lol 😂
Run some injector cleaner in it or c foam
Doesn’t need it
Dude , i got 32500$ of parts in my JL, and i enjoy every dollar i’ve put in her!
I’m sure that you would enjoy having nice parts and component in your JT rather than keep dumping money into that turd 😂( no offense ).
I love watching all your trail videos and would love to see you mod the JT and enjoy that poor thing!
Sell the TJ!!!!!!
Ya I’m with you on that one
Don’t sell the TJ bro, everyone that I know that sold theirs regret it. I came close to selling mine but didn’t and am glad
I just don’t see a world where I’m not continuously dumping $1000 a month into this thing it’s cost me over 40,000 in the last four years. I think I’m good.
What's what i was just about to tell you it could be blown between the 2 cylinders, also may have an EXHAUST LEAK JUST PAST HEADER AREA.....
Definitely seems like its time to part with the TJ. That repair money could be spent on bulletproofing the Gladiator so it can hold up to the hell you put your rigs through!
My thoughts exactly
Finally!!!!! I love the gladiator
I think its Time to let her go. Make her pretty and send her with someone that hopefully will keep her going.
If your going to sell it I wouldn’t worry about the floor.
I’ve already tried selling this thing many times so this time I wanna make it as pretty as possible so nobody has anything bad to say when they come see it
It is the right decision ... sad ... but the right decision
uh oh.......
You beat the crap out of it and wonder why it breaks! LOL!
I bought it to beat the crap out of. I don’t wonder why it breaks I’m just wondering why I’m still fixing it
@@SmokinMonkeyOG You keep fixing it because it's FUN!
@XXPS60 it was in the beginning maybe but it doesn’t seem fun anymore
Keep the TJ, sell the gladiator.
Lmao I actually like the gladiator
@@SmokinMonkeyOG just sayin', you wouldn't have an auto debt/ loan, with that money you could do an LS swap, throw some locked D44's front and rear and still save for the house. If you beat on the bus, which you will :), you will be spending much more $$ for repairs. Either way, i will still probably watch your channel, i came for the tj but i enjoy your channel.
I appreciate that! I’m just looking at the track record so far and it seems something is always ready to break on the TJ because it’s so old. I would rather put the money into the new one because it will last me longer than continuing to dump money into something that’s already bean beat to crap and probably has more underlying issues than I think. I get I’ll still have to fix the new one but I know it won’t be nearly as often
How is UA-cam not paying you? Looks like you have enough subscribers and views.
To be completely honest I make $500 a month. Every repair is more than that and i usually have multiple repairs a month. That’s why I’m in debt and it’s time to sell the TJ
That’s what I mean by UA-cam is not paying for it because they definitely are not supporting anything on this channel
@@SmokinMonkeyOG ah I got what you’re saying. Yeah UA-cam doesn’t pay good lol, it’s a little extra but doesn’t go far. Good luck bro, recently started watching your vids, look forward to see what you do 👍🏼
Still got cats on this? If so, check the heat on the front of the cat and back of the cat. If it's plugged it'll be giving misfires and misfire codes, be sluggish and on rev sound weird...sometimes it'll go away, sometimes it'll show it's face back again. If you hit gas and it feels sluggish... with misfire codes, might be clogged cat.
Good tip!
@SmokinMonkeyOG happened on my 97 that daughter took over and gone through everything you did so far until I looked at the heat differences, it was clogged, changed the cat and o2 behind it... runs like a champ.
@@Driven716I have an 02 that keeps coming up with a p0306 code and I’ve tried everything, even a compression test which came back fine so I’m thinking it might be the cats?…
@manualtuning5222 I would check your cat and if it is then the o2 behind it will need to be replaced because it'll be plugged also. It's very weird or at least mine was, it started with idle, then jumpy on acceleration after few hundred miles, then it would drive normally or it wouldn't go past 45mph. Replaced everything I could think of until the cat started to sound like ringing. The disc's inside the cat finally broke apart from the backpressure
@@Driven716 yeah I replaced the motor a few months ago and it kept giving me codes for o2 sensors so I replaced all of them so I have a feeling it’s the cats have gone bad, every time I’ve scanned the code it’s been at just about 700rpm
22:18 that's what she said
