Make your own DIY Quarter Panel Armor. In this video I'll show you how to make a version of quarter panel armor for the scorpion crawler build. A 1998 Jeep cherokee that is being modified into a rock buggy offroad vehicle.
A good beginner welder: amzn.to/2eDa8NG
The plasma cutter I use: amzn.to/2et53Ej
A decent drill press: amzn.to/2fq3B85

Great job on the armor. I made mine front and rear out of 11 gauge and bolted 'em on. I have a tip for getting that contour for guys that don't have the quarter panels cut off their rig. I took a 1"X2" landscaping stake, set it on the ground, and placed the armor over it. I then simply stepped on the edges and used my body weight to gently hop and work a curve into it. I weigh 190 and it took like 1-2 minutes per panel to get a matching contour.

Your video style may have changed a little, but your content sure hasn't! Clearly you have a love for this style of fabrication and its cool you have a platform that allows you to do it for a living.

When you get to where you want to armor the tires and wheels; consider these two ideas. First, a disk shapes plate that is held on by extended lug nuts, much like dual tire rims. In fact this disk must be slightly smaller in diameter than the tire. But would be great between a set of duals. The other idea is to suspend plates linked by a screen of chain links. But foam filled tires remain the best bet for stealthiness.

"Until next time folks from everyone here at Bleepin Jeep, keep them wheels turnin and plasmas burnin" You could make that a good exit phrase, seems to fit well with what everyone at Bleepin Jeep does.

Great videos. Im working two jobs and saving money to build a Jeep XJ. Im going to use it for overlanding and also to live out of it for a year or two. I have a CVT roof tent, ARB roof rack, dual yellow tops, Goal Zero Yeti solar generator ARB fridge, ARB awning with enclosure on my shopping list. Many other parts on the list like air lockers and suspension and what not. Mainly want to make it self sufficient and livable first though. Keep up the good work.

To armor the radiator and front a metal box containing a pair of 2 1/2" angle iron sections 2" apart and off set 1/4" in height where the reversed angles are deflected and then caught by the reversed, cuppingsection(use large and thivker angle iron if heavier weapons are expected)

i have to say i really do enjoy your channel, i have the same welder.. you should try to find a spool gun that was made to go with it.. it will really open up so much more cause you can weld aluminum... i found a used on on ebay for 150 bucks

You will have to weight it when its all said and done. Compare it to a bone stock Jeep to see how much it gained with all the modifications. Im betting it will pick up some significant weight with all the frame, suspension, axles, body armor, and cage. Not that its a bad thing, weight can mean traction. But it would be interesting to see the difference and maybe its distribution front to back and side to side.

For my xj. Was actually thinking of using pieces off another. If someone could chip on that, just bought a 🏠 and the budget is almost non existent. Just want to keep the thing together. Stop it from falling apart. In Nova Scotia there really is no getting another one.

Inject expanding foam into any gaps between the armor and the original skin. It is amazing the structural rigidity that foam adds.

Some of the cheap ones retain moisture, but marine or fire rated should be closed cell and moisture resistant.

1/8 Inch is 2,8mm....that is maybe level2-3A IF IT IS AR500 steel...now is it? Even though IIIA ist said with the benefit of the doubt. Go Look it up. No rifle round. 357 if you are lucky. .223 FMJ punches through 1/3 Inch mild steel like nothing
