@JackDeexis 5 лет назад

That is a fine mosheen. Don't let it go! TJ is the last of the "real Jeeps" and probably the best all around of previous models. Inline 6 motor is tough as a hammer and one of the greatest engines of all time. I did a cold air intake, JBA headers, Magnaflow cats, and a Borla cat back. The increase in air flow literally brought the motor to life. I was stunned and totally did not expect it.

@MansoorAuto2k 5 лет назад

Tip for you brotha. NEVER EVER EVER use the same wash towel/mitt on both the wheels and paint. You will be spending a lot more time than that polishing out that paint because you will be taking all kinds of contaminants from the wheels and dragging them right across your paint, putting more and more scratches/swirl marks in that paint. You look like you know what your doing based on the polish and what not, but make sure to never cross-contaminate. Keep on Jeepin’ on 👌

@ArkansasOffroad 5 лет назад

Thanks for the tip! I try to rinse the mitt out pretty good before transitioning, but I'll admit, I do forget sometimes. Thanks for lookin' out!

@xdawg7045 5 лет назад

@michaelregan427 5 лет назад

Really nice truck man, subscribed. A few suggestions, but NOT trying to tell you what to do since the truck already looks great. For plastics use "Lexol, Vinylex Protectant." It has rejuvenated parts that I was sure were destined for the paint booth (or can of Krylon in my garage). Consider a Griot's buffing wheel with a few different pads if you're after a high gloss shine. This is an offroad truck so your goal might just be protecting the paint not chasing your tail restoring something that is going in the mud.

@JeepTJWheelin 5 лет назад

Killer detail. That Plast-X works really well on the soft top windows too. Just make sure you have several micro fiber towels otherwise it's swirl central. Another cool thing is either generic or regular pledge for tires, wheels, bumpers, rockers, fender flares, well all black trim. Most of my black trim is Line X, so I have to use a spray mist bottle and let it sit-soak in. The pledge lasts about 12 days. How many days are you getting out of the WD-40? I'm the same way, beat the hell out of the Jeep but put the elbow grease in, keep it looking new. I hope this is the last vehicle I own and I treat it as such. Cool vid! 😎🇺🇸

Hey man great looking jeep! I’ve been watching a lot of your videos recently. I just wanted to offer a piece of advice, you can take or leave it. Just wanted to let you know my experience. A lot of the time, the reason you get those micro scratches in your paint is because of the way you wash your jeep. First off try a two bucket method with dirt traps in each bucket, and an extremely clean wash mitt. Keep one bucket with your soap and one with clean water, wash one panel at a time from top to bottom. Making sure you clean your wash mitt in your second bucket (with just the clean water) after each panel. I promise you if you do it this way, a lot of those micro scratches won’t come up. It will save you a sunburnt and tired arm lol. Again I sure hope I’m not stepping on your toes, just wanted to put in my 2 cents. Great vids man!

@ArkansasOffroad 4 года назад

That is a badass jeep, I love the color and the interior accents in body color. I have to ask, how the hell do you bolt those gas cans on when full with the rack above the tire? It's gotta be a 2 man job. Not being disrespectful, I love the idea, just curious. I'm planning a cross country overland trip with my '03 Rubicon, dog and camera and am still trying to figure out storage; it'll be a 4-6 month trip.

@ArkansasOffroad 5 лет назад

You just stand the cans up on the ground (empty), and put the cargo rack on top of them. Bolt them down to the rack and lift the whole unit as one piece above the tire. Bolt it to the tire carrier and then fill the cans. The cans are meant to stay on there. Just use a manual shake syphon to suck gas from the jerry can to the main gas tank. You don't take them on and off.
