It really is cool to see the progression from the “rather exuberant” guys from the early episodes, to the respected craftsmen we see today. Jimmy, Jeremy, thank you for letting us appreciate the skill you guys possess, and #Powernation thank you for letting these guys become who they are today. I know that I will appreciate the #Carcass show for years to come.
THC keeps me at the optimal height too.
Thought the same thing when I heard that 😆
Facts.....on a multiple times a day basis!!
@@JsGarage jjjjjJjjjjjjJJJJj if no

Thank you for the reformat. Took Carcass from a show I couldn't stand to watch (with the reality tv vibe) to one I can't wait to watch.
+1 Yes, like the show much more now. Painful to watch before.
Out of all the shows on the channel this is definitely the best one. Keep doing the crazy artistic stuff you guys do.
Parte 2 xfa. Saludos
Loving all the fabrication on this build !!!!
What a blast! Killer shop and suspension masters!
The production and effort plus knowledge. Respect
I enjoy these videos so much!! I feel like I learn more here, then when I was in school
Thank you guys, from you I got lots of knowledge about automobiles
I enjoy builds like these. Would like too see how it turns out.
Y’all r the og of car building..1.2mil subs is a shame… there wouldn’t be a us without yall
This is a great video. Thanks for doing it. You do create very nice welds with your technique and setup. The camera shots of the welding are also very good. TIG welding has an artistic aspect to it. When the helmet goes down all else goes away except the puddle.
Well, I hope you don't forget to put a top reinforcement bar on the shocks hoop, because all that tension from the shocks will bend the chassis inward.
And the brackets for the axle links seems too weaks.
YOU GUYS KEEP ON MOVING, EVERYTHING GOES VERY WELL.
Great work can’t wait for the next update
I COULD BINGE WATCH THIS CHANNEL ALL DAY!!
I wasn’t even planing on watching this video but holy hell this is informative and interesting I love this channel man
Props for actually giving a quick shot on what the welding machine was set at. 👍
The reason I just subscribed.
this is how you can tell if they understand their audience.
Looks like you guys have a lot of fun.!!!
the slot-and-tab design you can build in with the CAD software really shines here. this is just well-thought design meeting experience.
I love this project!
Awesome educational content! 😎👍
You can’t run a steering box with a triangulated four-link front suspension; you’ll have uncorrectable bump steer. You either need to run full hydraulic steering, or run a three-link with a track bar.
@Leo Coffy lol
What? These guy's are pro's
@Leo Coffy has nothing to do with grip and everything to do with the vehicle being unstable on the road
@@dumbestoyster apparently not
I've subscribed to this channel. You definitely deserve more subs, than the mainstream youtubers.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I really love to watch your videos... I can learn more about how to build something with using a right tools and do it right way... Very helpful... Sorry about my bad english... Hope you can understand.... 😅👍
Nice, this is power of USA people, make America great again. Hello from Europe
Great Work guys
Nice work! Looks great. I’m building a 1978 Jeep Cherokee Chief the same way. Just waiting on my shocks from King.
I've always wanted to build one of my own. I hope you guys are available for tech support over the next 10 years.
Glad to see deadheads still around.
Deadhead from Virginia right here!
nice work guys
Awesome informational educational video experience Y'alls God Bless Ya 🙏
This is a sweet build.
I get the feeling you guys like that plasma table.
13👍's up thanks again for taking us all along with you
I had one with a 454 ci big block Chevy in it for the street
Now about a mile of weld bead to hold it all together!
I am about to go postal!😄😃😀😊☺😉😁😂
Great job!!!
Thank you for sharing your video I get great ideas
First episode I've ever seen and reminded me of those shows on speed I watched growing up
How are they getting to the nuts for the fronts rear upper mounts??
Nice build and great info. Just curious I would like to know who makes the 2 post lift your useing?
I gave you guys crap on the Trailblazer project because you used a SS model. There are a lot more 6s running around that are affordable and plentiful. However, this build makes plenty of sense and I am enjoying it. Good job guys.
Will you guys be gusseting the hoops for lateral support?
You guys inspire me
Awesome video, how’d you make sure the axles were completely square before measuring for control arms? Plumb bobs? I’m assuming that the frame was leveled before any plumb bob was used? How about the axles caster? It’s safe to assume that you positioned the axles at the optimum position first? I’d love to do a build and am in the metal trades, you are all awesome! I’m curious if you got sunburns from welding without sleeves?
I love to see what you guys can do with a J10!
Did you guys do an episode on the frame clean-up?
If so, can you link it please?
Good day friend...good job...👍👍🇹🇱🇹🇱
Did the plasma table come in handy? Idk if they said it did
Good job 👍🏻
Unity giving power for couple of suspension
I’d like to see an detailed episode for setting up the gears in those axles.
Excelent video
Después de ver esta chapuza, no me extraña que en las ITVs miren los 4x4 con lupa.
Are the doors going to clear sliding past some decent tires?
You're going to have crazy bump steer with that front 4link set up. You need to run full hydro steering or a track bar with that mechanical steering.
🤔🍻
Might as well do Leafs in the front at least if you're going to have that steering set up
Yep....they could of easily done a proper three link setup.....but those who know....know. And those who don't know....well.....
I thought they were doing a whole hydro setup
Exactly what I was gonna say then u already did😂
So what length shocks did you use and how do you figure up the length to weld in your shock hoops? I am building 1978 2dr SJ the same way and I’m trying to decide what shock to go with. Thanks for any input. I have photos to send
NICE VIDEOS
When welding near machined parts, especially with MIG anti-spatter spray is your friend. Also when welding near threads its a good idea to thread the piece in before starting... make sure your ground doesn't transfer through the threads.
This show is the nickel back of automotive shows.
Cool!
They sure have a good sponsorship of Dippity-Do
lol good one
What size gas tank yall going to put in or stick with just a stock gas tank for a CJ 5?
You got to get it did a really nice job that juice will look very sweet
nice video !!!
Please some more info on anti-squat and CG relationship, theory design. Where did you get this info and where can I get it?
Why didn't just run a parallel set for hydraulic/mechanical steering like in the 4500 class Ultra4 cars? The best of both worlds.
4 link front with a chassis mounted steering box? How do yall plan to combat bump steer?
👌 good think .. good skill .. good talk
👍 good tools
How did you find the anti squat line? So confused on that process. To me it looked like you just picked a random location near the wheel center line.
I think I understand quantum electrodynamics better than the suspension physics.
17:30 You left out ORI's air struts. They're the best in the business! Off Road Innovations. Only downside is they're backordered quite a bit.
what size of welding mire do you normal use. do you 75/25 argon/co2
How do you determine the length of the Shock at Ride height? To make the Dummy Fab shock bar?
I would have built a different crossmember with clearance for the link bars, I mean you do have a CNC table...
🤔🍻
CAD - Cardboard Aided Design
They sure like pointing sponsors stuff out repeatedly that most of us cant afford.
You can DIY most of them in your garage. Just as we do.
Why do you expect them to be broke like you?
They get paid by sponsors.
Maybe you would be broke if you weren't such a whinny little crybaby?
@@craftyukraine you build bikes bro.🤦🏿♂️
Its awesome I liked your video ,I'm looking for coilover suspension for my 1984 fj40 ? What do you recommend me ?
What is the coilovers they used i was hoping they'd go into detail about them but nope just heres want we got lol
what kind of axles are you using? thanks
No links for the the “used” springs and “end links” ?
What axles are being using in this build?
How are you going to run a triangulated front 4 link with steering linkage? You'll probably need full hydro steering
Could you do all the welding with a 110v mig welder?
What CAD program are they using?
Best Job🌠👍👍👍🌠🌠🌟🌠🌠.
How do you know the front drive shaft isn't going to hit the link? Without the transfer case in you are gonna get some serious plunge if your middle link ends aren't close to the U joints.
Maybe knocking some of that rust off before you complete your build might be a good place to start...then a quick stay over at the powder coaters or just about any place that will apply some kind of corrosion resistant material to that chassis.
Where I can find those belstein coil over spring
Doesn't that lower your clearance by quite a bit to have the center heim joints hanging down off the frame rails?
How recent is this? Are these re-runs from years back?
Altering the wheelbase effects the engineered steering Ackerman, unless you adjust the width accordingly, or alter the steering knuckles.

Good ol cold weld😂
Good👍👍
Dam I miss Ian Johnson.
Same, watched that and gearz with my dad all the time after school when I was little
What kind of bender is that
Junk mail is bad ass
Hello, I am a newbie in this, could someone explain to me how they know how much the coilover is going to compress with the weight of the vehicle before mounting it? How do they know how long to make the upper supports?
I could answer, but this question is a year old and you probably found the answer by now.
How to order those suspension system?
I forgot to put on my welding helmet and burned my eyeballs watching.
This is all a dream too have this done to my junk truck maybe one day but itd prob cost more than imma pay since i dont have tools or friends to help me do it!
