Welcome to the channel, I'm Jeff! Recently let go from my past two amazing jobs as an IT professional, I've decided it was time to make a choice. I could get back into the rat race of disposable employment and chase my own tail until I'm sold again...or I could begin my quest to take my life back, one episode at a time!
I'll be showing you how I maintain and work on my own Jeep, music, and home projects instead of remaining dependent on the corporate wheel for everything. There's so much you can do on your own with a little guidance; things the average person feels he or she simply cannot do and, thus, needs to pay others for. I'm going to learn as much as I can to become self-sufficiant, and ultimately take you on journeys in my Jeep Cherokee in the Southwestern States. I hope you join me on my quest.
When I was a kid. We moved out to New Mexico and into a house that my parents rented for a year. Brick home. You probably thought it was built pretty good. no. The windows were so crappy that the average wind would blow Dustin between the windows and walls. You could watch it come in and if we didn’t clean enough in a couple weeks. There be a little mound of dirt underneath the window.
Very honest video. Same thing happened with us. Learned something new. Color totally changed after applying dye on the concrete. We picked cola but it changed to rustic.
you can get wooden 'handle' cotton swabs from Harbor Freight and use the smaller ones to swirl in some grease. I've come to use '3 in one' garage door lube with jet nozzle.
It's almost completely stock. That's an aluminum valve cover; good replacement for the soft stamped metal cover (chasing a leak). It has the original block, exhaust manifold, and throttle body. The fuel injectors are K-suspension 12 hole upgrades. The coolant system is out of a newer 96, not the original sealed bottle and hosing. It also has old in-line fuses, and the chassis/electrical was wired for the old 4 cylinder 2.9L.
@@inawrocki207 that’s awesome. Would it work for a stock 1989? I can’t seem to find any and would really appreciate if you know the company that sells em
@@abrahambarkhordar5572 it's this one here: www.summitracing.com/parts/rto-rt35002?seid=srese1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_-GxBhC1ARIsADGgDjvhrDsowtqAHGBs7AAqJgnH2A3NU6h731jAt3uyUoQUPI1sF7QFQtcaAqTUEALw_wcB Fuel injectors are K-suspension.
Hey my dood - still alive. Life happened 3 years ago and everything changed. I am, however, preparing to relaunch the channel with some content I enjoy doing more.
The structure appears to be 24” oc wall studs and rafters. I would recommend 16oc walls and rafters. But It would have been ok to use roof trusses at 24”oc , or 2x8 rafters at 16” oc.
Acid stain is not a coating that can peel - it chemically reacts to the lime and mineral in concrete to permanently alter its color. It will never peel off. That said - it can sun bleach and fade depending on color. A coating does protect it from surface damage, and add sheen.
@@chiplarkin4069 There are many kinds. This was acrylic coating - it does not peel. It hardens into a composite, glassy seal that could be chipped or fade with enough punishment. Epoxy sealant is another options. It's harder, similar strength, totally different application. When done perfectly, epoxy is very strong and can last for 10+ years. When applied less than perfectly, epoxy will flake with heavy traffic. I went with acrylic because it's much easier to just wash and reapply a new layer of coating regularly. Epoxy requires an entire grind down to concrete and fresh reapplication.
OK these OSB walls Re flooding my feed today. This doesn't meet fire code. Fires start in kitchens and garages. I think it's a 1" of wood to meet the firewall requirements. Quick search will confirm the current code.
That only applies to walls attached to residence. Nine of these walls were attached - it's a free standing structure with different code than what you're referencing.
Thanks for the video! Had a question about your headliner. I noticed the little pins in the headliner. Are those to hold it up and if so what did you use? TIA
Hey, thanks. Those are "saggy stoppers." You can get them anywhere or order online. They are a little corkscrew pin that just keeps headliners up. I had actually done this headliner myself a few years ago; it's not sagging, but I figured it eventually would and the pinned look works in an older Jeep.
There is no, and never has been any covid 19 crisis. Thank you for filming this for us all to take away our own knowledge from your process. You made it look so fun!
Привет, хочу задать вопрос! Я не увидел плёнку перед утеплителем. Вы считаете утеплитель не будет намокать от паров идущих внутрь стены через лист осб?
First, soak a spot on the floor with water. That is what it will look like once sealed with acrylic or epoxy. If you feel like it's still too red, you may have to look for a different color stain and apply it over the existing and get it darker/more brown. My floor came out dark brown (original color put down) with redish highlight marbling (second color mahogany you saw me apply here). It all looks red when dry, but color vastly changes when sealed!
It went from "Horrible" to "Just about as horrible." Lol There's nothing you can do to make a 4.0l stop guzzling, really. This upgrade is more about quality of life and longevity for the engine, providing smoother uniform performance when running, reducing misfires, that stuff.
Agreed - black on cars hides every single detail, making even an awesome car look dull and generic. That said, watch Fonzie of Dipyourcar; every single car of his is black. That way, the door jams and stuff never stand out, no matter what color you spray! Good luck on your dip, hope it looks as awesome as ours came out!
Did your Costco have that toolbox in stock? Or was it a special order? Can't find anything about it on their website. 😥 Edit - found it on Costco Canada website. $1,199.99, now. Yikes!
That seems to be full price. I nabbed this for $699.99, I believe. It was in store, but Costco is always changing things up. That said, this chest is still perfect as the day I got it, even after moving with it. It is superbly built and fully matte black is beautiful.
Is it ok to insulate and osb the walls leaving the ceiling open? Or will that cause me issues when i decided to insulate the ceiling in the future? (eg tearing the wall osb when doing the ceiling) TIA
