May I please inquire on where and what brand are the new head lights in the jeep? I would love a set for my ford.

@stymiesnerdly771 3 года назад

Hillbilly electical tip - Instead of cutting all the wires to the same length, if you stagger your connections, the entire loom will stay more consistent in size throughout. Placing all your connections at the same spot makes it look like a snake swallowed a rat. Loving this build!

@chipprice1174 2 года назад

well it didn't let me post a pic, but what it is , is a shop light, 5500 lumen, has a rotating feature so you can direct the light where ever you need it, stands about 40ish inches high. Was my answer to all my lighting needs under my lift.

@jeffreyharbert3439 2 года назад

Thats standard practice, not hillbilly! Very good advice though!

@matthewbarnhill5402 3 года назад

I'm a subscriber of both Fab Rats and Matt's Off Road Recovery. One thing I like to see is two friends wheeling or working. I've noticed that Paul will drop whatever he's doing to help Matt in a recovery or whatever he needs and I'm sure Matt does the same. That's a true friend. This world sure needs more of that. Well done guys and keep the great videos coming!!

My Mum at 85 used to drive her heavy diesel engine station wagon which had no power steering.... when the guys from the garage came to pick it up for a service, they used to complain about that.. they had a tough time steering it round the block... ha ha. This jeep looks like it has a long life ahead of it! Looking forward to seeing it get a work out.

@richarda996 3 года назад

The trick to steering is to be rolling. If it is stationary you need a sumo wrestler to move the steering wheel,lol

@chipprice1174 2 года назад

Saw you knocking your light off, I'm sure it's happened before, I know for me, it happened a lot, so I built this. Makes it look like the sun is shinning on it. Repurposed every thing. Wheels are off an old office chair. Very light weight, you you hit it, it rolls instead of flopping over. Has really worked well under my lift.

@2A372C 3 года назад

The reason a roach clip wire holder is so important is because holding the solder joint together mechanically until it cools ensure that here won't be any microscopic bubbles in the solder joint, joint voiding and cold solder joints. By having a solder vice (Helping Hand, Third Hand or Fixture) this issue can be eliminated so that your solder joints look completely wet and shiny. The joint would also meet J-STD-001 Specs if it mattered to you. Wires that are just held loosely exhibit all of the issues I mentioned before when examined under a microscope. I understand that there are circumstances that make soldering a joint without a fixture necessary though.
