I always use a clear tube and an old jar when bleeding brakes , that way there's no mess on the floor and more importantly you can see the bubbles in the tube, and of course when the fluid runs clear of bubbles.
Love seeing Cody in all of these videos, and coming along for the action. He seems like such a chill guy. Robby also got lucky to have a man like Hillbilly to work along-side too. That guy seems to be able to fix or rig up anything. It's impressive.
I really enjoyed this one! That was quite a build and so fast putting it together. It's to bad you didn't do better, but you had a great time, right! Robby i sure hope you're shoulder feels better. Better luck next time. Thanks again for the enjoyable video.
I have a little tip for u Robby. To bleed your lines, there is no pumping involved. Put a hose on the bleed valve and just open. Let gravity do its job and let it flow until all air is out, ensuring that you keep fluid in the reservoir at all times, or u will have to start again. Do this on all 4 and them pump a few times and all will be done. The hose is to collect all the fluid without making a mess. Just catch into a bottle. Give this method a try. U will be happy and it only requires 1 person.
These past few videos on Derby has educated me a lot about what goes into their builds. Wonder if there are any cross over ideas to the rock crawling arena. Sure would like to hear about them. Thanks for sharing.
You all have great hearts for others and you channel is pleasing to watch. Not only is it educational to watch and learn how things are done in the autobody world, but the family you all make in partnership is amazing.
An old timer taught Me a real good tip when bleeding brakes. Pumping them up only bounces the air in line back & forth. Best way is Hold them down, open bledder, close beelder, let pedal up & hold down again, repeating till solid. guaranteed solid brake pedal again.
To bleed brakes: open bleeder screw, second person push brake pedal to floor and hold, close bleeder screw, release brake pedal. Repeat procedure until no air remains. Pumping the pedal can actually push the fluid past the air.
We live and learn. Great video. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friends. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.
Good stuff! It brought me back to the late 70's when our club ran Corvairs in spectator racing at Santa Fe Speedway near Hinsdale IL. We also did figure 8 racing, but didn't use Corvairs. Car prep then was much simpler, but it was major fun. Glad to see you back into it!
I wanna see You, Paul, mat, the other mat. Bleeping jeep and all the other ones I forgot, to build your derby cars for your own youtube derby special. You guys are awsome 👍
Thank you for keeping it safe with brakes. RobbySteele died in 2014 in Delta officiating the demolition derby. Good on you for keeping it safe 😎. He is from Nephi in Juab county 🙏
If I did what you guys do under a vehicle I would have already had ten pieces of metal or rust in my eyes. About 20 years ago I had a piece of metal in my eye from working under my car and I thought it was just scratched so I waited too long. An Ophthalmologist had to actually use a drill bit mounted on a platform to drill the metal out because it apparently rusted in my eye. if your ever have to have this done you'll wish you had worn safety glasses.
I did it with a welding splatter bauble, laying under a trailer welding up a cracked spring mount, the bauble bounced off the concrete and came up between my helmet and head .. landed in my eye and burned itself into place. Found a optometrist open, he used a large bore need from a syringe and flattened one end a but and used it as a very sharp scoop to take it out . That was an interesting experience I have no interest in repeating. The one upside was that fortunately the metal in my eye was totally sterile as it had been molten seconds before hand, so chance of infection was pretty low.
Had it happen to me…but I was wearing safety glasses (properly). Piece of grinding slag went through them. While they make things better, they’re not 100%.
I have been trying to say this to all the channels related here. Fab Rats, Matt etc etc, but they dont seem to listen or care. It is a bit disheartening, I must say. They must have an eye bank somewhere.
I had a spark from a heavy grinder bounce off the wall behind my full face shield, bounced off my cheek onto the inside of my safety glasses, and off the inside of the safety glasses onto my eye and stick. I know what happened because I felt it burn my cheek and saw it bounce of the glasses lol I was able to use an exacto knife blade tip and my rear view mirror to pop it off the white of my eye, so while it hurt for a while every time I blinked, it healed up fine lol
In Montana in 60's and 70's demo derby was stock cars with just glass removed. No other changes. Slowly things like battery placement, wiring and fuel location were changed. Then they started letting doors, etc be braised more solid. Far from today. After one session even most winners were unusable for a second session!
Another great video Robby and the team and it was called to watch you in the derby pity that you couldn't go any further but there's always the next time stay safe and have fun from your big fan from Papakura New Zealand big Matt
Love the derby vids Robby. Cool to see everyone come together to get the car done/ support on the day. You have some solid people around you ! keen for whats next ! Also g'day from Australia :)
My buddy Cody rebuilt his rear differential last night to install today to drive from Cranbrook British Columbia Canada to Salt Lake City to derby on Saturday!!!! #51 Cody Walker.
Our local fall fair is next weekend, they do modified truck and tractor pulls friday night and a derby Saturday night, I'm getting excited just watching this, I'm also on the local FD so I get in for free and watch from the track side with a hose 😝 can't wait
I wish our derbys were setup like y'alls. They don't use the full arena and it's normally so wet nobody can get any traction and it's just some denting of fenders. As the night wears on the mud dries off and the hits get better, but your track looked perfect!
Well I feel your pain on your shoulder. Four dislocations and twenty years later, I'm running on chewed up cartilage. Take care, and count your blessings amen.
Never knew Hillbilly was left handed. Always hold your fitting in your left hand and wrap away with your right for Right Handed people. Thanks for being relatively safe compared to some of your friends, well let's just say that MORR needs more safety training. At least you use a helmet and gloves while welding, no overalls or smock but, that could be considered a luxury by some standards. It's not over until the fat rearend drops.
Exciting adrenaline flowing. Great video again and again. You'll have too much fun, but safety always come first. Comments about the eye damage, it's better having both eyes than sitting on the bleachers with an eye patch. Love you guys, stay safe.
Such good content and very useful info hillbillys way to wrap a bolt with thread tape is extremely useful for me as I always seem to put it on the wrong way 😂
Of course some one in the stands already showed the video of what happened and we are still putting it together by the way great job you rock the house
If you are a lefty you hold the fitting in your right hand. Otherwise its so much easier to hold fitting in your left hand, and roll the teflon clockwise.
Hillbilly, you are a hard worker and are very intelligent. You are well beyond what one thinks of by the term Hillbilly. Robby we know you appreciate Hillbilly and what he contributes to the work. I am sure the Boss counts on Hillbilly to contribute to the work and to cover your butt when you do some of the wild things you do. Thanks for taking us along to your world.
LMAO most of that car wouldnt pass inspection at the tracks we derbied on years go BUT the wires on the front would have!!! we ran a chain in a figure 8 through the hood around the core support and bumper brackets with a big washer and bolt in the center of the radiator
Yikes! You took quite the hit. Hope that shoulder is doing OK! Had a late model years ago and we ordered some custom license plates which were supposed to say 'I'd rather be racing' but the idiots misspelled it 'raceing'. That stuff was gold to show off at the track with. You'll end up with lots of stories like that.
If you know a drag racer, bet they have good, used 5 point harnesses on hand. We have to replace them every 2 years per sanctioning body rules though the belts come out most typically in like new shape. Demo derby is hard on everything though. Can't see any belts lasting terribly long there.
Better run next time. You have the car, now you just have to make it right. You guys should really wear PPE while you are working. Life changing things can happen and gravity can be a B. Hope the shoulder is just bounced a bit. Thanks for the upload, Pretty cool.
Look at the end of the fitting and wrap clockwise, the same way the piece would screw on. God bless you! Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:3 KJV But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Revelation 21:8 KJV Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. Romans 3:23-26 KJV But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement. Romans 5:8-11 KJV For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9 KJV Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God. Romans 5:1-2 KJV That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10 KJV

hold fitting in left hand wrap awaywith the tape coming out from the bottom. try it HillBilly, used to work well for me when I was plumbing.
I now have a new appreciation on Derby, thanks for shedding light on the work that goes into it.

Hill billy needs to drive next time. He puts in alot of work too. Can we all agree?
Absolutely!!
For sure
I concur ...👍
Absolutely agreed
Here Here
Such a great attitude, man...after all that, it'll piss you off...but you kept it in perspective..bless you, dude.
I loved every minute of this video .amazing editing ty guys
Each man has his pleasures, as long as it’s fun, it’s all good, way to roll with it Team Layton!!!
We are all proud of you Robby!
hope u have a speedy recovery from ur shoulder injury robby
Never been a demo derby man but it looks like a good time great job and video God bless from GA

Your message of “you can’t win them all”, Was a wonderful thing to hear someone say.
Yeeesss! Who else loves derby? 😬
Anyone that likes car's I recon 😁 all the best to you all
not me waste time
Heck yes.. get her done guys..u all Rock..
We live and learn. Great video. Can't wait to see more videos soon my friends. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Fab On. Weld On. Keep Making. God bless.
Hillbilly is a complete legend! He alongside Robbie makes this channel for me!
I would always want to know what the problem was, so good job at the end. Thx for sharing
Good stuff! It brought me back to the late 70's when our club ran Corvairs in spectator racing at Santa Fe Speedway near Hinsdale IL. We also did figure 8 racing, but didn't use Corvairs. Car prep then was much simpler, but it was major fun. Glad to see you back into it!
Love your videos and the invisible safety glasses. We care about all of you
I wanna see You, Paul, mat, the other mat. Bleeping jeep and all the other ones I forgot, to build your derby cars for your own youtube derby special. You guys are awsome 👍
Awesome job guys, glad to see matt and his wife to support you 🙏😁🙏 , we do the pro mod truck pulling
Thank you for keeping it safe with brakes. RobbySteele died in 2014 in Delta officiating the demolition derby. Good on you for keeping it safe 😎. He is from Nephi in Juab county 🙏

Had the same thing happen twice, once while wearing safety glasses. Still don't always wear them.

Morning coffee was perfect with the demo. Thanks for sharing
I'm proud of you buddy that was a perfect cut...and a perfect video...
Glad you all had a ball, better luck next time, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Frikkin Matt was there too you guys are petty slick
I was there that night! The final heat was insane!!! Too bad for the broken car. 🤣🤣 Manti was MUCH better for you. THAT ONE was great!!
Very Nice! Lots of work but at the end it looked like a blast!
Dude!!!! Robby your door wraps are Amazing!!!!!!! (Love the kids names)
Juab County is a hidden gem of Utah, the western portion of the County is beautiful!
Love the derby vids Robby. Cool to see everyone come together to get the car done/ support on the day. You have some solid people around you ! keen for whats next ! Also g'day from Australia :)
Loved the "ignition switch"!
My buddy Cody rebuilt his rear differential last night to install today to drive from Cranbrook British Columbia Canada to Salt Lake City to derby on Saturday!!!!

Great video guy's.....excellent effort Robby !!
Good to watch you back in action Robby. Pity you didn't get to nail em much. Hope your shoulder is ok.
💯 Albuquerque New Mexico support love your early uploads
Well done Robby on time lets hope money comes your way Barry NZ
Our local fall fair is next weekend, they do modified truck and tractor pulls friday night and a derby Saturday night, I'm getting excited just watching this, I'm also on the local FD so I get in for free and watch from the track side with a hose 😝 can't wait
Hey I like your safety glasses, close your eyes when using cutoff wheel
RL, you and your Team are Legends.
Good show from start to finish.
Good sportsmanship goes a looooong way. Well done gentlemen.
Awesome video, great work everyone.
0:08 I participated in a Demolition Derby Here in Ontario Canada .. where Chrysler Newport's were specifically banned from the derby. :(!!!!
I wish our derbys were setup like y'alls. They don't use the full arena and it's normally so wet nobody can get any traction and it's just some denting of fenders. As the night wears on the mud dries off and the hits get better, but your track looked perfect!
I think it’s time for another employee appreciation day, near thanksgiving maybe? The crew and you have blown up fast, keep up the good hard work 🤘❤️🤘
Well I feel your pain on your shoulder. Four dislocations and twenty years later, I'm running on chewed up cartilage. Take care, and count your blessings amen.
Great action, guys. Thank you for sharing !
Since starting watching these videos few days ago, Hillybilly is funny as hell
Never knew Hillbilly was left handed. Always hold your fitting in your left hand and wrap away with your right for Right Handed people.

Lazenbys are some bad ass derby car builders. Miss the show they had on Discovery Channel
Major props to you guys you come correct
Good morning y'all!
Afternoon !!
Skid steer tires love it.
Can’t win em all 🤷🏻♂️ but it always fun to run what ya brung
This was a fun video I really enjoy watching the derby I know you will get the car fixed. I am looking forward to seeing your next video
1:40 rip to anyone else with headphones lol
About welding near that fuel tank, flood it with argon or co2 from your mig welder, no oxygen no boom
Our Demo Darby or any racing harness has to be replaced every 2 years brand new, and inspected, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Ya win some, ya lose some! But it's all looking fun. Great video!
Ice on that shoulder: straight away (40 minutes) Immobilise the arm and if no better -"it's X-ray time"
🙋
Hello from Siesta Key Florida
Cool. Maybe next time will go better :)
Such good content and very useful info hillbillys way to wrap a bolt with thread tape is extremely useful for me as I always seem to put it on the wrong way 😂
More demolition please, oh yeah I think Hillybilly needs to find another bronco 2 and build it for a tough truck competition.
You’ll need to build a car when you’re not in a rush I would love to learn more about derbies
You were both in your element there. 👍🏻😂🇬🇧 Did Hillbilly race too. Or just build and fix them?
Of course some one in the stands already showed the video of what happened and we are still putting it together by the way great job you rock the house
Good video robby , keep them coming !!
Ricky Bobby Layton
You have to put on a UA-cam 500 race
In the style of the Baja 500 through southern Utah.
If you are a lefty you hold the fitting in your right hand. Otherwise its so much easier to hold fitting in your left hand, and roll the teflon clockwise.
Hillbilly, you are a hard worker and are very intelligent. You are well beyond what one thinks of by the term Hillbilly.

Diet Dr Pepper 🌶️ the drink for champions...
Love the derby stuff. Wish paul and Matt would do more derby stuff also..
LMAO most of that car wouldnt pass inspection at the tracks we derbied on years go BUT the wires on the front would have!!! we ran a chain in a figure 8 through the hood around the core support and bumper brackets with a big washer and bolt in the center of the radiator
Hillbilly!! That's the wrong way!!! To apply Teflon🤣😂 Hold fitting in left hand, Teflon in right hand 👌
Yikes! You took quite the hit. Hope that shoulder is doing OK!

Awesome video guys!
Fun Video . Thanks for sharing !
Just found your channel and love it!! New subscriber :D
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 can't win them all but you never give up that's all that counts
This was an awesome video!
ALWAYS FUN TO WATCH!!

That was AWESOME You Guys 👍❤️✌️💪🏻
Love the derbys. Build a real bad a** car and do what you do!
Can't win them all but damn it's fun while it lasts.
Thank you hillbilly! I always spend way too much time figuring on pipe thread tape. Fitting in right, wrap towards me
Look at the end of the fitting and wrap clockwise, the same way the piece would screw on.
God bless you!
