Crazy seeing what you can Build in America and then go drive it on the street! In the UK that would be through a crusher quicker than they could get you in front of a judge and the arresting copper would have the story of a lifetime 😂 B is for Build, Bonkers and Bad Ass 👍
We may be able to get away with it, but doesn't mean it's legal. Some counties here in the States have emissions testing, which means modifying anything engine/exhaust related (especially cats) is impossible. At least you guys have the ability to use aftermarket catalytic converters and engines that are not original to the car.
Exactly what I was thinking. In my youth I had a real Mini Clubman Estate (1979) with 6 x 10 Weller Wheels, 1275GT rear drums (which had built in spacers) and 1" spacers. The inside of the wheel was level with the outside of the car. Literally with an hour of driving it the first police car I saw was on my like a rash and I had to make arches for it out of "For Sale" signs. Those were the days :)
I wanna see that thing fully built for Off Road! Grill guard/skid plate, KC lights, and lifted with the long travel. Also might want to figure out the power issue. Maybe K-swap it with boost? Make it a ripper!
"That thing is trip-permitted and insured so it's street legal" Meanwhile in Germany, I changed the pegs on my bike and the cops gave me a ticket for an "Unregistered Modification"
we are headed down that path. the danger of mods are obvious esp with evidence of ppl just cutting parts off AFTER they have passed inspection in another form.
@Giga Shrubbz What you do in private is your business, in public it isn't just your choice, as you potentially put others at risk. Freedom isn't unlimited, your freedom ends where it affects someone else's freedom.
@Giga Shrubbz I think you might have misunderstood the original comment. In Germany modifications aren't banned either. They need to get approval though so you can legally go on the road with your modifications. Not every modification will get approval (such as modifications that make your vehicle significantly louder, less safe or emit significantly more emissions), but you can still make a whole range of modifications and of course repair your car yourself. Complex modifications would require extensive documentation and a lengthy approval process.
This is legit one of the best videos you put out in the longest while because we the fans actually get to see you all really enjoy the build!!! Keep 'em coming!!!!
There's some legit countryman builds out there if you google image for them, we have a ball in our countryman with all terrain tires. Handles the trails better than the ford bronco sport lol
"it's not so much a garbage pile, as it is a treasure chest... I'm not a hoarder.." this coming from the guy with more salvage title cars than no salvage cars.
don't worry most will be forgotten. single seater is already gone, boat will have one trip around the harbour, then destined to never be spoken of again.
@@mojonojo3 Dont worry? Thats the most worrying part. He doesn't seem to finish builds anymore, just starts new things. Theres no satisfaction on what could be.
You guys are amazingly talented. I cannot believe you threw that together so quickly and it looks pretty rad. I’d love to see it with mo’ power and some long travel.
That’s actually a solid looking build. Would love to see the long travel on there. You should then send this to idea to mini to put on their all wheel drive clubman model.
It was awesome to see the mini and the jumpicon out for the gambler 500. I didnt get to see it at hooptie x but i got to have the jumpicon going down the mountian behind me on the trailer. It was fun. 😀
Was hoping for some audio of how horribly the tires rub during spirited driving, was not disappointed. Props to the audio work when editing, brought back many good memories. Makes me wanna build something again and finally run in the gambler.
Would for sure like to see this build more! Also curious how you fixed the wheel wobble issue, you mentioned it was a problem and then it was magically fixed
I love the Mini, I'd love to rip that around the track lol. I was volunteering at the race track for the Gambler 500, it was good to see you guys come out with a couple builds!
Very cool, definitely add a front bumper bar, bump stops, finish the long travel 4 sure* maybe a power adder too 🤘she needs more pep in her/ step buddy
Love it brother!! That’s a lil badass machine right there!! I would totally ride that thing everywhere!! Cut the top and add roll bars and you’re set!!
You should put the long travel suspension on the mini then use it as the tool and service car for the jumpacon in any other off-road races you attend with it
Guys, you know how to live a good life! Things like that are only possible in USA, we all from the rest of world only look and dream about do that kind of things
Holy shit, I actually thought they were going to use that replacement for the front strut and then try and drive it. Unbelievable. I love this channel, they have absolutely no idea what they are doing, but they just keep going. Thank goodness Oscar is there, otherwise they would all be dead by now….
I love the mini it looks cool. All it needs just to smooth out the edges so the tires don't hit and it will be better. But all in all it was awesome. Great job guys.
Saving my life motivational..... Man Im getting ready to go so hard in my UA-cam on my channel. I'm bout to buy some land , my own house to rise my kids. Salute, blessings.
@@scottspropertyservices6877 I'll have to check em out. Haven't seen any of their content. But, I have a lifted Neon I built for fun. It's mainly my snow beater.
You make it sound like some kind of Honda when you call it a Type S. Did those strut tops last long without any reinforcement? This thing looks way more radical than I was expecting and I love it.
It's videos like this that make me want to become engineer and/or a mechanic just so I can do this like This because this is so fun and interesting I would love to do this and then be able to Drive soo cool n fun
I love building with my hands I build all kinds of lego sets I help my mom put shells together and I've built all kinds of stains in Minecraft it's so rewarding see a project get done
Could have made some spacers for the tops of the struts. Maybe 2.5 " of extra space for those tires.. mini needs all the extra hoops and giant coil overs please finish it. Then add some more power.
That thing needs like a 5’ whip antenna on the rear where the normal ones goes and it’ll look just like an RC car lol
This gets my vote!
Yes
Perfect
They come with tall ones must have been removed

Yea I could just drive my stuff on road no worries if in USA
Same in Aus, I'm always amazed and envious of what the guys in the US can get away with 0_0

Too be honest im kinda happy stuff like that is not on the road here.

This is my new favorite project. Please, please, please do another episode with the long-travel suspension.

You just made about a thousand people want to buy a mini and do that to it lol and I’m one of them!

19:38 looks like the lambo already put into to the action 🤤
OMG, yes! Build a full on Mini to rival the Jump-A-Con!
The Mini would look extra cool if it had a roofrack with a spare tire and a Jerry can or two ontop! i actually like it😄

"4 inches is not enough we need 10 inches"
ive heard that before
Well
We all need 4 inches in our life LOL
@@kleidtomasse an "added" 4 inches.
@@qlasauto2831 soz
Looks like an RC car you had as a kid lol
Heck Ya! Take that Mini Monster too a full build so you can Full Send! Looked like fun!
would LOVE to see the mini with the full Long travel
With those tires, your axles are gonna snap like Lindsay Lohan in the mid 2000's.
Sheeesh
"I'm not a hoarder." Hey, the first step to recovery is admitting you have a problem 😂
"it's not so much a garbage pile, as it is a treasure chest... I'm not a hoarder.."
this coming from the guy with more salvage title cars than no salvage cars.
bro how are you doing SO many builds at once, like RELAX
What is it now like 3 cars and a boat? Jumpacan, Mini, Single seater. Speaking of, I really want to see the single seater finished
95 man hours , a TWO day build , that's how .
don't worry most will be forgotten. single seater is already gone, boat will have one trip around the harbour, then destined to never be spoken of again.

Just finished tjs lol
@@josephzabolotskiy5056 same lol
Oh snap it’s been so long I’ve checkout tjs channel I forgot I follow him 😒 lol
TJ went back into the queue from the notifications over here 😂
@@patrickpatrick5078 then why did u stop to reply
That’s actually a solid looking build. Would love to see the long travel on there. You should then send this to idea to mini to put on their all wheel drive clubman model.
YES, try to find a salvaged AWD Clubman and make it a Monster Clubman with serious travel, shocks and those Nitto Trail Grappler M/T :)
It was awesome to see the mini and the jumpicon out for the gambler 500. I didnt get to see it at hooptie x but i got to have the jumpicon going down the mountian behind me on the trailer. It was fun. 😀
Thanks for coming out and rad talking to you again.

Madmen! good stuff
Looks like fun brother 🙌 bummer we didn't cross paths out there.
Copied your mini rig
New subscriber here, nice content!
Really cool little rig, definitely want to see it finished!
Mini’s ROCK!! Tough as Nails and not Near as Dusty!! Mini-Mize Your Life!!
Would for sure like to see this build more! Also curious how you fixed the wheel wobble issue, you mentioned it was a problem and then it was magically fixed
I can't wait to see that mini with a costom suspension
I love the Mini, I'd love to rip that around the track lol. I was volunteering at the race track for the Gambler 500, it was good to see you guys come out with a couple builds!
Well that was an unexpected design direction. Love it!!
Not gonna lie. I love all of your content, but wish you did more of these mini builds....no pun intended....ok maybe a little. lol
Very cool, definitely add a front bumper bar, bump stops, finish the long travel 4 sure* maybe a power adder too 🤘she needs more pep in her/ step buddy
“Unorganized treasure chest” I’m gonna have to use that one!!
Honestly that was pretty dope. And was the most the general public has Ever heard The Oscar speak. 💯😎
How’d you deal with the flipped wheel not fitting/centering?
Y’all are nuts and I love it!!
Congrats on the Mini-Cahn! That looked like a lot of fun.
5:52 SAAB gang🤘🤘
Love it brother!! That’s a lil badass machine right there!! I would totally ride that thing everywhere!! Cut the top and add roll bars and you’re set!!

Please finish this. Long travel suspension would be epic. And those Nito tires deserve the room to move.
Project treasure, that sounds like a great season of episodes to me

That mini looks so sick with the giant tires
I love the mini it looks cool. All it needs just to smooth out the edges so the tires don't hit and it will be better. But all in all it was awesome. Great job guys.
One of the best auto channels in the platform
Would be amazing to see this finished properly
Hell yeah brother put the bigger suspension on‼️‼️🌪🌪
All win in this episode, even for your 'spirit animal'!
I love when you guys actually get out there and play
I would be checking those wheel lugnuts on every off road stop just in case.
@KevinAnderson the "Spirit Animal" lol. Semper Fi Bro!!!
Yes please finish building this, it would be awesome! Add some power to it too, nitrous!
If you weren't working on the jumpacan I'd ask if you'd make a big budget Baja mini, the way you cut the front fenders look cool af.
That looks so sick. Wonder if it had no power cause the TC light was flashing. Wonder if you turn off the TC if would of been faster
I think you've solved it.
Greetings from Hungary 🇭🇺
You guys are awesome, can't wait to see the jumpacan at race!
Can I get more info on how you fixed the wobble on the mini with the reversed wheels??
that mini is going to be hilarious with long travel suspension
Just saw you guys on the road in Central Point Oregon, jumpacan looks amazing
That was one cool build and ride....you guys are amazing!!! Love your American ingenuity!!!
That's pretty cool. You guys make some cool cars.
Saving my life motivational..... Man Im getting ready to go so hard in my UA-cam on my channel. I'm bout to buy some land , my own house to rise my kids. Salute, blessings.
Long travel, some tube work front(protect those coolers) and rear. Maybe even over fenders.... don't for get a roof rack and more lighting!!!
Checkout “dirt lifestyle” channel. Although sounds like you already did.?

Did I miss the part when he said we put the wheels on backwards?
9:46
19:49 OHH HELL YEA I wanna see that!
The BMW design team are taking notes for an X1 Mini no doubt.
I want to see a full on off road mini haha. Give that thing some more power and a giant antenna
You make it sound like some kind of Honda when you call it a Type S. Did those strut tops last long without any reinforcement? This thing looks way more radical than I was expecting and I love it.
Def wanna see the long travel suspension!
I think it’s safe to say we would LOVE more Mini-Monster content!! 🤣
Yes do a full build! Baja style!!
It's videos like this that make me want to become engineer and/or a mechanic just so I can do this like This because this is so fun and interesting I would love to do this and then be able to Drive soo cool n fun

Yes put the full long travel on it!
Looks like a rc car😎. Get the long travel suspension on now
That mini looks amazing, I wish you guys mounted a light bar in the front or roof, this video makes me one to build one just like that one lol
But how did you fix the front wheel seating against the hub issue?
You need to make the mini a full project after the jumpacon cause that looks insane
Not gonna lie, *Monster Mini* looks really cool ;)
This one's gotta go viral. Look at that thing
You might have an open diff in the Mini. Get a 1.5 or a 2-way clutch diff. Look for ppl parting out wrecked rally cars.
Is there any regulation in your country, like tire completly outside the car is ok on the road?
Let’s see the long travel on the mini!!
Could have made some spacers for the tops of the struts. Maybe 2.5 " of extra space for those tires.. mini needs all the extra hoops and giant coil overs please finish it. Then add some more power.
I looked for you! I was sponsored some used tires this year, it was a huge difference!!
That is a dope ass turbo mini!!!
I really felt the disorganized treasure chest bit…
I really felt the "that's my alarm to buy a car" bit
For real lol
That might be the best MINI I've ever seen!
You guys just rock man!!!! Wish I never got sick!!! 😪
I sooo want to see a full long travel done on this!
That was great. Fun to watch
Guarantee the guy with the Durango kicked ass.. if they would have spent a couple more days on that mini it would have been a mean car
Awesome Job and fun to watch
LOL The alarm to buy another car. Chris you madlad, your life is so different from mine... I enjoy watching because I will NEVER be in that position.
Love my nitto Ridgegrapplers, never tried the trial grapplers
Awww man that looked like a blast!! 😀😀
