As an around the house welder, I really appreciate it when you explain things like the diamond cut out and such. I learn a great deal by watching (and rewatching) and listening to you. It absolutely amazes me what you can do in your shop. You make the complex look simple.
I also find myself rewatching many clips
You are so right that he makes the complex look simple.

" It 's hot. Oww It's really hot " It's almost like Matt is there.
I was just going to ask if Paul has graduated from "Matt's School of Welding Assistants & Hot Part Handling." These two guys are more fun to watch than nearly anybody on UA-cam. What an opportunity; practical education paired with all that free entertainment!! ;^)
It isn't bad if you aren't touching it, though! Hahaha.
Our old saying to “is it hot”?…. Nope just didn’t take long to look at it.
"Everything's done but the work" isn't that just how life works. 🤔
Man does this vid motivate me to go cut my neighbor's jeep in half.
😂
Wonder how much gets edited out? 🤔😆😆😆
It is nice that you don’t edit out spots where you are struggling. I wouldn’t have known about the diamonds in the frame either. Those are the details that make the difference.
Round shape is better than "diamond". Fatigue cracks usually starts from any 90 deg corner.
I used to watch Monster Car Garage when it was on. You make those guys look like wimps. I am in awe of your craftsmanship and get it done work ethic. Thanks for the video.
That was an Epic show and deserved a lot more than it got, i really miss those days.
Nice job on that frame reinforcement. Looking forward to seeing the rest of this build. Be really kool to see Papa's jeep and Matt's new rig out on the trail together.👍👍
Papa Dar is really in for some fun off-roading with this modified Jeep. I really enjoy the process of you figuring this out as you go. Keep up the great videos.
Awesome work Paul. Every time someone yells "Oww--that's hot!" I think "Did Matt show up?"
This is the best channel on lubetube for fab work keep up the hard work.
I agree. Check out “grind hard plumbing” those guys have some awesome fab work as well.
Thank you!!!
Sadly this channel has taught me more than collage did
You sir are a genius with fab work. I was wondering how you were gonna do the frame. I like how you explain everything
Paul seems to get a lot done when Matt's not around...lol
Because he isn’t redoing what Matt does 🤣🤣🤣
These videos along with Matt's are perfect to watch and forget about all the BS going on. Keep doing what you're doing how you're doing it. Oh, and XL welding rat shirts please!
I enjoy watching this and matt's towing if I lived over in the States you would be the type of people I would be friends with.
“Did I cut a gas line?” Famous last words...
Don’t worry he wasn’t using the plasma cutter
Had a flame coming off the oxy/ acetylene gauges hmm run or close ? Stayed and shut them down . Couldn't stand the wait
The man knows his metal! And he's not afraid to do it.
Gotta admit I'm looking forward to seeing the finished build and seeing the Jeep on the trail. Always a good time watching you and the gang at your shop.
This is just Paul living up to the channels Name THE FABULOUS FAB RATS
May be doing the the same to my Suzuki samurai.
"Did I cut a gas line?" Let me finish with this cutting wheel. 😆
I love the positive can do attitude, finding a solution to every problem thrown at you and enjoying it. Always a great watch !
Absolutely love the channel!! I love seeing the ideas in your head become reality. Every project is always exciting to watch. Crazy to see you tear down things and have parts flying everywhere and make it so easy to just put a transmission or something back together.
Thanks for watching!
He makes it up as he goes and it just works.
My dad cut nearly a foot off the step-side of a Dodge Ram and put it on a Power Wagon frame. It was awesome looking after he painted it white. Short & Stocky & BADA$$. Paul, you remind me of him in the fact that you could build anything you set your mind to. Papa Dar's Jeep is gonna be a bada$$ too. By the way,...Papa Dar is suppose to be taking it easy. Looks like he might be over-doing it since he didn't take a nap this time. I'm shaking my forefinger at you Papa Dar!! ;-)
Where there's a will there's a weld.
Will here. 😉
You sure made that look easy! I am so impressed with all your skills. Nice to have a team support you.
Love it! Great work in there. It's nice to watch these projects especially when you know what you're doing! Papa Dar's jeep is going to be a cool yj.
Once again great work with welder, so good to see your fabrication skills.
"Did I cut a gas line?" (continues to grind) lol
Electrical issues, I recently cut the nose of a 93 ZJ and from the axle back off of a boat trailer. ZJ meet boat trailer. ZJ trailer, meet XJ, your new camping buddy. XJ pulling a ZJ gets tons of looks. And the ZJ is the perfect amount of room for sleeping, removed all the seats, dash, and steering wheel, put a sink in the front left corner where the dash was and 2 propane ' burners about where the drivers seat was. Perfect little camper for me and my lady.
Great video Paul.your shop is the envy of anyone that works on cars, trucks, etc. you make everything look easy. Always look forward to yours and Matt’s videos. Still catching up on older videos that. I haven’t seen yet. 🤙😎
I want this done to my TJ so bad...enjoying seeing what all goes into it...."Everything is done, but the work"
@@jontrudell7529 More stable going up ledges and down stuff...better rig all round
Buy a LJ
What is the gain in cutting it in half.....leg room for pappa dar to take more comfortable naps lol
How about longer wheelbase....
@@RetiredPilot longer wheel base for better naps. He’s always taking naps lol
@@stannelson2582 Yea he will be able to park it over a bigger rock when he gets tired.
Papa Dar: I sure like the wheelbase on those new LJ's but they're so expensive!
Paul: *Hold my Mountian Dew*
Did I cut the gas line? 🤷🏼♂️ Let’s throw some sparks!!!! 😂😂
Hey Paul, for future reference when you need to remove sound deadening from a chassis. Use dry ice. You just crush it up and spread it over the sound muffling and use a folded up packing blanket to insulate it and direct the heat up and out of the work piece. Then you just chisel it up, EXACTLY LIKE peanut brittle
Paul, This is Freaking Awesome! Its so simple to understand, makes me think I can do it...Now if I can learn to weld like you!
Always enjoyable to watch Paul work and he didn't lose his marker this time! Please keep the videos coming...
Thank you for this one! 🙏
I have an ‘88 YJ I’m wanting to build up. Thinkn of stretching and you’re convincing me 👍.
I love this channel!!! I makes me want to try it myself but I dont have the knowledge Paul has. Or all the tools, or ambition, or time, or hoist, or friends with any off this knowledge. I wish I lived half way between you guys and Matt.
i use to have the same problem with metal sawall blades they (burn out) in a short time like a drill bit ,so when i try cutting oil on the blade much to my surprise it worked great blade cuts better and lasted alot longer ; they're not cheap to buy ! great video keep safe
Whats this a milwaukee comercial!!! Good video again
I have been welding since I was in high school.i did custom exaust work for about 10 yrs.I've been around Jeeps my whole life, growing up and farmington new Mexico. And still learned something from this video.mahalo
Paul, What a Great job you're doing on the jeep, I was really wondering how you where going to weld the frame back together and stagger the joint welds like that was awesome...Another great video !! Thanks for the great video editing Michelle.. ..!!
Awesome fabrication job again 😊call, never did the diamond trick that’s good to know ! You taught an old dog a new trick today, always good to get some new information that’s useful! I always just plated it ,put a grinder to it and then plated it 🙂
Amazing! Watching your creations go from a not sure if you know what your doing attitude to winning at stuff most would never attempt!
That diamond reference was bang on..."I knew we would become one right away"...
Looking good brother 👍
Can't wait to see it out on the trails....
12 inch wood blade works really well for the deep thicker metal. It sounds crazy but really works
"Sounds crazy" is a very Honest evaluation. (You take a blade with itty bitty Teeth, and install it so it turns backward {If "memory Serves."} Does make a HECK of a racket, tho.)
You guys have way to much fun. Great job.
Can't wait to see the body work and finished product. Long dreamt of doing something similar with my old YJ before I got rid of it.
Papa Dar's jeep is going to be bad ass!! Really fine fabrication Paul!!
Man, that was some real cool stuff Paul!! Thank you!!👍
Well I have seen everything now. What a job. I'm glad it's family as the bill would be very high. I can't wait to see the next upload on this project.
this is great wish i was there. thanks for letting us watch....
Awesome job as always.... and at this rate Dar will be all healed up by the time you finish... 🤘🤩😁
didnt Matt patent that cliche', ouch that's hot?? LOL... @Paul, it's amazing how much work gets done, when Matt's not around to "assist" you... j/k...lol... great video Paul, cant wait to see more of Papa Dar's project come together... thank you... :)
Can’t wait for the next video. Great job Paul! 🤙🏼👍🏼🤙🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Bro as welder im learn some lesson
This JEEP is woderful rebuild of a expert mind and hands than
I will see this will rock on roads and duns tanks
Cobus
From South Africa
Reminds me of when we did the opposite to a VW Rabbit 25 years ago. We took 22" out of the middle and welded it back together. Basically moved the rear seat up to the shifter so then done we drove it from the back seat. Great fun.
Cool stuff! We did this on the farm trucks too. We shortened an ol Volvo car and put left and right brakes on it! That car was way to fun to drive!
Enjoyed the video. Southern Utah looks like a great place. Looking at your videos Matt’s and Casey’s.
What a crazy fun team of friends always makes the job easier 😂.
Thanks for sharing 👀
I'm doing the same mods to my 1991 YJ. Can't get anything done because I'm addicted to the videos.
Fascinating process, thx for posting.
Really enjoy your videos! Thanks for good content.
Man that’s gonna look sweet! Well I have more of a mystery problem now I fixed my suspension replaced a bunch of parts but now in 4 wheel drive I have this clunking so I don’t know if it’s the driveshaft or the diff or transfer case or what but I can make it there in 2 wheel drive during some decent weather and my daughter and I are still looking forward to the possibility. Keep up the good videos can’t wait to see this beat done!
Good stuff man... metal magic.... great tools great skill hard work teaching those wanting to know... thank you greatly !
Another great vid, WHEW! I was hoping we would get to see the process of cutting the wrangler in half. I noticed in the background, that the job had already been done in the the tank repair video. The motivation to start my CJ7 rebuild came from watching your vids. It would be easier to do with a shop like yours with all the tools. I hope to bring the CJ down to your area of State when I get it finished. Maybe get stuck, (intentionally) in a very precarious situation, then call on the dynamic duo YOTA AND BANANA for a rescue. Ha Ha That would be an expensive T shirt.
I would buy an EYECROMETER or your other FABRAT ISMS' T shirt in a heart beat.
Great channel. Love the fab work as well as the video production.
Having no teeth on the sawzall is a common occurrence whenever I’m trying to cut something nice and clean
Wow. Pumped to see how this goes. Just subscribed to keep updated.
Great job you're doing on the jeep!!!
Enjoy the build series. Keepem up.
The easy part is talking about and you do little of that my friend great job as always you are one smart and hard working fella.
Looking good, now to find the next episode.
Paul another great video keep em coming Paul
awesome fab work, good use of heavy wall drill pipe from s service rig
Another great video. I just can't believe the the stuff you do to that Jeep! I can hardly wait to see it running free in the dessert.
Awesome work Love the content keep up the good job !
Thanks guys!
I have been wanting to back half my 2014 JKU. I am already on tons. One of my wheeling buddies back halfed his JKU made a nice buggy on 16" Kings
Break, weld, & repeat! Great video's !!
Where`s Matt, when you need something hot carried across the work shop !
Great Job!! I learned some new welding tips...YEA!!
Flip the saw zall blade over for a closer cut with less obstruction. Love the video’s
If you can't afford an LJ, build one!
You do some great work bud.take it there's not a lot of jeep scrambles around there. But hay Great videos my guy.
Awesome work, If your Sawzall is any thing like mine you can flip the blade to face upward for ease of cutting control, just a suggestion.
Very cool. Makes me want to do some welding again. But I can't since I got a pacemaker 12 months ago.
Darwin's a brute. He always has something busted and he still wants to help.
Great job. You sure make it look easy, but the many hours of actual work can’t hardly be displayed with a few snippets of video footage. Can’t wait to see the next segment.
can't wait to see that jeep finished and buggin' deep !!
You are an artist and a craftsman.
Love the build keep em coming!!!!
Been there, done that, for Banana Republic. I got in on the last of the Original Design stores.
Great edit job Michelle...
Thank you!😉
You’ve got to wonder about the miserable SOBs that 👎🏻 Paul and Matt’s videos... What a miserable existence they must live...
Makes me wonder why they watch them just to dislike them 🤔
Don’t pay any attention to that stuff. They just do it to aggravate you.
I swear the people that do that are just jealous they aren't creative enough to think about doing these kinds of projects...........that or they aren't skilled enough to do them & are jealous that someone else is!
Probably never done a day's work in there lives.
You make this look too easy. Great work Paul
You got alot done! Never thought Id see a YJ unlimited/ YLJ OR YL
This is an AWESOME project! Pappa Dar going to be cruising around in the baddest jeep on the planet after the surgery to it has been finished!
