Rear Axle Madness On The Girth Mobile Pacer 

👍🏽🇺🇸👍🏽 longer videos are good. You do you and we’ll watch em

The diff video was TOO LONG? They're crazy. It was just fine.. If they don't have time, maybe they don't know they can pause it and finish it later. :)

Do the videos any way you want. I'm just grateful for the constant knowledge drop!

Definitely keep up the technical content. They can fast forward if they don't want to set up gears

Congratulations on your W E Rock trophy. I know you have a place for it on your trophy wall. Someday it would be interesting to hear your recollections of them all.

I like longer videos, screw the haters. Can’t wait till you and Rory race the pacer

I love it when you work on gears, I always learn something every time! Thanks, for all the awesome videos.

Pro Tip: Always shorten the tube you are notching so the hole saw only has to cut half a circle. Saves time, heat, and hole saws.

Nice ... As far as long videos go , got to love the 2X speed and the scroll bar on the bottom of the video... Can't say that ive used them on your videos though...

Next time you have a coating like Zinc, galvanize, or other put them in pool acid. Wait till it quits bubbling and rinse with water.

9 inches are legendary, but i still prefer it's big brother the 14 bolt. Full float or bust 😂

Looking Good 👍😎✊

Hmmm, do I hear a race between the Racer Pacer and the Baja Corvair brewing?

Colt us true fans will watch a 2 hour video if you put it out. Keep up the excellent work brother

"9 inches of fun" on a "girth mobile". I swear I'm just watching a 4x4 video!

I like how you show as much as you can. For those that are looking on how to do. I'm 62 years old and do it myself. And you have should me some things.

didn´t OnX change the rules so that parts that was for safety like tires did not count towards the budget?

I will always say thanks for the scripture, brother!!!

You only need about 5.5” for fun, sir.

great as always great content very entertaining

I enjoy your long videos when you're building because you get into small details that many people don't know. I look at them as learning opportunities.

I love the channel but wish people could keep their beleves to themselves. It's called belief for a reason....

Do the videos how ever you want Colt, it's you channel after all. People will complain no matter what you do.

Former NASCAR super late model crew chief here. WD-40 is a great tire softener and it will not trigger tire softener sniffers. Not sure if that's a thing with off road racing, but it sure is with racecars. We used to hose tires inside and out daily with WD-40 the week before a race. Keeping them in garbage bags doubles the effectiveness.

Video request...Some day will you make a video showing us the behind the scenes how you track down late model parts for your custom builds. For example, how did you figure out a Chevy Astro gearbox was the right part you needed for Smokeshow? This would be a huge help for any of us that are not walking encyclopedias of old part specs. Thanks and keep up the awesome work.

Been watching this intently! Please put the flames on like the Wayne’s world pacer! I am building a tj with trailing arms and hopefully airbags inspired by Dave chapelle. Question I have though is with bushings on the trailing arms like you have should the lowers be parallel to the frame rails and upper triangulated or will they work as triangulated uppers and lowers? Good luck on the build, I’m loving it!

Another step along in the progress of getting the Racer Pacer/Girth Mobile finished. Looking good.

Soon I plan on building my first off road automobile, I'll be watching your videos again for all your expertise and tricks.

Another Vote for keep up the Technical Content, those who don't want it, can fast forward.

I ran a set of those SSR's on my toyota, and they were pretty good once I did the pineapple cut. The pacer is definitely my favorite build in this series. Also, im a true colt fan so it doesn't matter how long your videos are I'm still gonna watch it.

👉Appreciate the Scripture. Excellent craftmanship and attention to detail and on the axle.

Colt- I didn’t watch the whole video. But I saved it to my “off-road build” list in case I need all the info.

I didn't think this was longer content. As long as it's captivating, I'll watch. All your content is interesting. 👌👍

I really enjoyed your last two videos of where you took time to explain all this and those knuckleheads think it’s too long. Just tell him to shut up don’t watch I enjoyed you need the time to explain to understand and do what you do.

I have a couple license plates for you from the Menominee Indian Reservation. Ill send you them soon

I've got to admit that I'm not a huge fan of the longer content, but man that's a me problem, not a you problem! That axle is looking gooooood, cant wait to see it under the car!

After that video i dug out all my parts and started building my 44 for my tj keep it up

Morning Colt

The title alone got me lol, fantastic work colt!

Put you special plates around the mezzanine over your man door.

You need to add a Dodge Colt to your fleet. Colt builds a Colt?

As lifted bubbles go, this is my favorite.

I love going to junk yards it's like going on a treasure hunt

Colt the sidekick whisperer!! LOL

GREAT VIDEO! God Bless

Long videos are awesome Colt !

Buddy I've never done anything like what you do but it's fascinating. You explain exactly what you are going to do, why and how. The detail really makes it interesting.

Thanks for another great video. Lottery would be having you upgrade the axles on my 73 K20. You do amazing work Sir. Thanks for all the great content.

Do what you gots to do.... Idiots will just have to figure it out or ask alotta questions, I'm a ask alotta questions person if I need to.❤😂😊

Colt I really enjoy how detailed oriented your. It’s nice to see,along with Tom Tom

I love hwy 64 auto

Colt, I have a '92 "Sidekick", but here in Indonesia they are called Vitara. The also made a 2WD version called Escudo. Mine is a manual trans with a 1.6L SOHC. The standard gears are 5.13, but I want to go lower.

As I have said several times....BEST CHANNEL ON THE WEB.... pls don't dumb down the technical stuff...if it's longer than optimal for some they can hold the 2x down ....ok god bless you all ❤️🇺🇸

I loved every minute of the vid. Not that I'll ever own a 44. However, breaking it up to a couple/ times a week would be awesome! Totally sucks to wait all week for some of our favorite tubers. But, I'll take it however I can get it. Keep up the great work, Colt. God bless you, man.

Colt I appreciate the shout out and it was my honor to serve. I was also an EMT/firefighter. Next time through NM we'll try to get up your way. Not necessary but if you feel like it some stickers for my buggy would be nice! Thanks again for the content.

Super awesome videos colt! I personally Like the longer videos. Explaining things in detail and not just boasting thru the fab isn’t the way to do it. Some people want just the information and don’t get taken into the video. Screw that take your time! No reason to shorten things and cut corners and leave any doubt! I like how you explain everything thing in detail it’s the attention to details that sets fabrication apart from just slapping something together! Dude I love the funnel tree! I had to pause and rewind a few times to study it and figure out what was going on there! Great idea! All the left over oil in the funnels just flows down into a jug! If you’re collecting license plates…dude! I have stacks of the things. Mostly all Colorado stuff, bunch of motor cycle plates and weird stuff. Some are mine over the years, and a lot of them are from when I worked At the Chevy dealership in Gunnison! They had boxes and boxes full of of license plates! Stacks and stacks of them! You can have what ever you want if you’re doing a license plate wall. If you’ve ever been to crested butte there’s a famous old house there in town, that’s been covered in license plates for 40-50 yrs. It’s famously known, it’s called the ‘license plate house’ I think it’s now a coffee place in CB. But it’s famously known…and There’s a guy in Gunnison that was doing kinda the same thing on his barn/shop with license plates, road signs and metal signs. I gave him a big stack of road signs and plates one time when he was first getting started. What’s the infatuation with sidekicks? You wanting to build a samurai? I know everyone that’s building a samurai wants the Suzuki sidekick motors, there a little big bigger displacement and fuel injected. And they bolt right in I think? I had a Suzuki sidekick years ago when I was still back in woodland park/ divide I bought off a buddy for $300 lol, it ran and drove and everything, it was only Missing the hard top, and the factory soft top was trashed. I drove it around all summer in woodland/ divide and the springs with no top on the back lol, got stuck in a few hail/ monsoon storms on the west side of the springs waiting out the storm under a bank drive thru covered roof lol. I rigged up a camo harbor freight tarp cover just incase I was out somewhere and couldn’t find cover. It didn’t have carpet and I drilled additional holes in the floor so any water could drain out the back lol. The body wasn’t the greatest, it was straight but it had a little rust in it in the floor from years of sitting with no top on it. But it was a running little mini monster! I sold it to some guy that wanted it for a Samurai swap. The auto trans was staring to slip a little, that was the only downside was it was an auto. Would have been better if it was a manual 5 speed I would have kept it, but having only $300 bucks in it i was set up pretty good to not loose any money. The motor ran great and hardly had any miles on, just over 100k miles on the dash it was solid as the came. There definitely getting harder and harder to find these days. I’d love to have one just to buzz around in again. That thing was a blast. Simple, basic, nothing to complicated or sophisticated, 4wd and light weight and fuel efficient. And easy to mod the heck out of. A solid axle in the front would be so easy. Everyone wants the motors for Sami swap but i think doing a solid axle swap on the sidekick would be the way to go. Suzuki Sami’s are hard to come by these days, in any decent solid condition that isn’t beat to piss and rusted out. I think a jeep front axle would be perfect. Nothing crazy big or hella built, lol the little 1.8l ego motor don’t have that much power. A jeep dana 44 front axle would be over kill id think heh. Maybe even a cj5 front axle, like what a dana 20 or 30? Would be about close to the same width? Do front and rear cj5 or cj7 axles to keep everything paired up and the same. I’ll keep an eye out for ya over here in grand junction! There’s all sorts of hidden gems over here that people don’t want.

I gotta to thread through 10.9 Bolts on the front hubs of my Kubota. It has Bolts from the factory but its a Paint to thread them in from the outside while holding up the dang tire lol You have great content and enjoy how you explain things instead of just mentioning it and moving on. Please keep it up!!

My two cents, I love the detailed video but I don’t usually have time to watch a video that longer then 30 minutes. Keep the detail but break it into multiple episodes. Not sure how that works out for you and the infamous algorithm but it fits my viewing preferences. I’m typically only watch the long videos when I’m in my shop working on my own stuff.

Colt- the reason the rake changes the drivability. (Not counting jumps) is because of the change of caster angle. Lifting the rear of a vehicle without properly aligning it will result in a lower caster angle and that squirly drive…

What are you going to do about the rear glass. I think they are as rare as chicken teeth. LOL👍🇺🇸🤪

Thank you for the detailed Dana 44 video. The editing and camera work are butter-smooth great work!

Do the Captan Morgan most guys are same . Capital M little organ

Another great video jam packed with tips and tricks. Wish I had the experience and knowledge you have. It is great that you take the time to educate and share that knowledge with us. I have a Suzuki Samari that one day I want to convert it into a rear steer buggy. Thanks for sharing.

My stock 1986 F150 had a wider front to rear ratio than that. I was shocked when the rear dif exploded and I learned this.

I love how your wife still rides next to you while driving. That’s awesome.

So your s-10 has a turtle painted on rear end cover. In spirt of the movie, you need a clear dome with a red light inside a camera aimed at it. Lmao it would be worth it even if it only lasted one trip.

Your how to dana 44 lenght was just fine, your use on rtv on areas with orings hurts my soul. 😣

I watched it twice but I do not have four-wheel drive the only thing I have is two-wheelers I have motorcycles but I want to build a trike I need to learn how to build a rear end on a for a truck

We call junk yards the mens mall lol. Great video as always! Thanks for sharing and teaching at the same time.

I love the build content you are putting out. Keep up the great work!

Hi guys doing great work on pacers love seeing your shows every time

There was a used Samurai for sale in Kirtland by the Southwest Tint shop

Watched this video based on the title…… this is not what I thought it was going to be, slightly disappointed

Jump on the bandwagon of.. everything's safety_

that bolt looks the same as a ls truck intake bolt... i wonder how close to the same it is.

Colt u should be putting licens plates around the grills

Why not use LubeLocker gaskets?

I enjoy the longer videos keep it up

Why build the pacer

I appreciate the in-depth build.

I love the pacer looks great

Where do send the license plate

That's what she said....

That celica gt was cool

Thanks, Colt.

Sweet work 😊😊😊

Nice....

I'm really surprised you aren't over 200k viewers yet. Great video.

Thanks!

✌️

👌👍☕cz

😎👍

Colt, why do you need to vent the axle?

This OnX build is great, You and Rudy have my favorite (unique) builds, Robby is going over the top (surprise), The Scottish flash is basically building an bug-eyed XJ, and the one armed bandit is building a rat rod.

I love the longer videos yes and if you don't then stop it and don't watch or watch and learn people have to realize not even one know how to do it and new people to the channel that wants to can it's for new and old so give Colt so respect he is trying to help everyone on here and Colt and fam love all the videos and God bless all

What settings do you run on your welder? Wire size, gas,etc? Unless it's the way you record, it sounds horrible on all your videos. If you are running .035 75/25 gas, try 20/310 on your setting as a baseline.

Ya..I like the longer video's..don't know why people would complain...don't have to watch if it's to long for them..split it up..not like they are payingfor it....I do dislike the shorter video's..just like the content...when your working on a Bulid..so the longer the better..

I'm sure you're channel helps 😉 alot of people. Not saying I'll no longer watch,but not all content is for me. I enjoy watching U guys on the trail,but building stuff, not so much. Still a 🪭 fan. TKS for sharing 😊.
