THE PERFECT SKID PLATES FOR A JEEP WRANGLER AND HOW TO FIX A BROKEN AIR LOCKER 

"A Star is Born"...actually two stars are born! Absolutely great instruction videos while being fun and entertaining. I don't even work on my stuff anymore and still watch! The image quality is superb and the "patter" is really fun and yet they still talk about all the facts necessary to get the job done. And of course they remember the "decals", Chris and Beck, you guys are great!

I enjoy your videos but I’ve been really impressed with how Chris brings us along while he works! I like that he films but puts the camera down to get shit done and he has a wonderful way of explaining what he did and/or is doing.

After rebuilding a few differentials myself, I guarantee its not as easy as Chris makes it look. It's one of those things I will gladly pay someone else to do.

Chris and Bec make some of the best repair/fabrication vids on YT. Well thought out and presented and pretty entertaining to boot! Great job you two!

Love watching these two! Chris thinks of doing things better rather than just getting things done. Very impressed by his skills! As always I look forward to what the next video brings. Much love from Louisiana

the fitment on those plates coming together like a tight puzzle is very impressive. I also like that they are aluminum.

Also got to say Chris kicks ass at how-to videos! He explains things so well and you always know it's coming from somebody who has been there done that! Y'all made a great choice by adding him and Bec to the channel.

Chis you got a winner with Beck !!!!!!Love how you both enjoy joy doing what you do

Great to watch a craftsman at work, Chris. Bec you are awesome.

Love watching your two build videos. Need more of them for sure..👍🏽👍🏽

Great work as usual. As has already been said…you guys make it all look easy. Thanks!

Another great video. Awesome content. Love these installs Chris and Beck have been doing

AWESOME AS ALWAYS! A TRUE MASTER OF HIS CRAFT! THEY MAKE AN AWESOME TEAM!

Another great learning video. Thanks guys!! Love Abbys jeep!!

Awesome! Was looking forward to the next upload from this duo. Made my day.

Just in time, I should be getting my Next Venture Motorsports skid plates for my 392 in a couple of weeks. I'm sure the install will be different but this gives me some idea of what I'm up against. Thanks for all the great content you guys put out.

These videos are invaluable. Thank you Chris, Bec 👍 Thank you Brittany, Kevin!

Love watching a master mechanic at work! Very informative video. Happy Trails to you all!

Dude, that was an awesome class. Really nice job. Really helps us newbie get more comfortable with trying out these projects. So cool tips on making the job easier. Thanks

Great job once again! Enjoyed you both immensely!

Chris amd Beck another awesome and amazing video. Keep up the great work brite lite family Brittany and Kevin all 4 of you are awesome love the channel and i genuinely look forward to every upload they make my day better

WOW!!! Chris you never seize to amaze me from watching the videos you do, and for the simple fact that you can get work done in the process absolutely amazing way to go props to you sir 👏👏👏

Always fun to watch and makes me want to get into the garage to get more done. Just rebuilt my transfer case and need to save some money for more parts and steel. If I ever decide to do gears, I will just pay someone to do that work. Luckily gears are fine with a manual trans and high torque diesel.

Those skids are insane!

I love these technical/mechanical videos added to the channel.

Looks good fixing stuff up. Getting it all working again.

Man what an upgrade, keep them coming!!!

Awesome education. Thank you.

Welcome to the new Chris and Bec garage channel 😂😂

Amazing attention to detail. Nice job! Nice to see those LJ 's getting some ❤

love the fabrication\shop work! keep it coming!

You guys have great on screen chemistry. 🤟😎

Excellent video.

Love you guys! Really clear explanations and all... great!

Great Video Chris & Bec! I am looking forward to seeing what you do with the Disco one of these days! I keep thinking about picking one of those up and prepping it for some adventures stateside!

Awesome....master tech @ work......you 2 are great....love how always finding a better way of doing it then just doing it.....egarly awaiting your next video.....Safe travels

Excellent vid! Dig this stuff.

Those are nice skids, now I want that... Thanks for the lesson, made it look easy 👍

You two are such a great addition to the LiteBrite team.

Mineral spirits also works really well cutting through the molykote type greases used in RCVs.

Good instructional video....GOOD JOB

Best content on RU-vid, thank you!

Heartily chuckled every time I heard the word “swedge “. Will watch again.

Fab Rats needs to watch a few of your vids. His are getting better, but, y'all have the editing mastered. Knowing what tedious stuff to leave out (like your off camera fab of the trans cooler bypass bracket), or include in another video about how to perform that function, while keeping this vid on target with its audience. Great job!

Great video thank you!

The Babysitter's always make great videos!!! ♥️♥️💯🤙

Awesome Mechanic!

Another great How to video from Chris & Beck,ya'll make it look too dang easy, I know it's not,and with my disabilities I'd rather pay someone like you to do the work, If,Only I could find somebody as good as you in my area, otherwise, I guess I'll just have to make a trip to Utah, never been there! Great Job you 2!👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

clean install on those skids.... my setup sucks without those nice flag bolts and subframe stuff. Nice product

10th! The Dynamic Duo of Off Road Builds! I could spend hours on RevKit, dreaming.I wish I could put aluminum skids plates under my WK but it would have to be fabricated - nobody makes bolt-on for it. A lift in your garage makes a world of difference! Thanks for the idea on strapping the gas tank to remove the skid plate; mine is badly dented and needs straightening.WD40 uses - Who Knew!? LIteBriteNationFixesEverything!

This is the problem with ARB's they always crack right at the collar. I ran them in my Land Cruiser 80 series, happen twice on the front and once on the rear. Failure was always at the collar right where your's failed. You can repair the old one by soldering it and use it as a backup for when this one fails. I'm sure you are aware of all of this Chris..:) but other's might not be. I like your idea of using the socket to make a radius bend right out of the collar.

I wish they had the skids for the 2012-2017 JKU. I would put my order in today. I really enjoy these videos with you two.

You guys are the best. Thank you so much for the install video, I'm sure that I will be referencing it often. I wish we were closer, I'd ping you for help on getting my LJ un-fucked.

Good job on replacing that line! Most likely the reason it failed is that with that much copper line hanging around, it’s moving around a lot. This leads to the brazed joint fatiguing and eventually failing. To prevent future failure, it would be best to either restrain the line close to the brazed joint, or route the air line above the R&P so it has a shorter run and less mass to move around. Good work none the less and those NV skids look amazing!

He makes everything look easy

Hoping to get a set of the skids for my Jk eventually. But other upgrades must come first. 😂 That and saving up money for the next upgrade.

A-Team right here!

Right on!!

Man I really enjoy all the vids but Chris and Bec make a super team... Crushed on Bec! Sunshine vibes from San Diego!

Thanks to you guys I went down the rabbit hole and put both my ZJ and 1st gen Tundra on Revkit. I'm just wondering how you get the pictures that link to the parts you have on the build sheet. It would be really cool if someone would make a video going into how to set up a nice looking page on there. Also really digging the Toyota content.

great vid

always like your videos. !!! Come on Chris, we all know you know to use eye protection while you're taking down those old skid plates. I actually missed the little point but my 10-year-old son pointed it out to me and said Daddy Chris isn't wearingg eye protection and you always make me wear safety goggles. To Chris, no pedal peer pressure, 😋 just a lot of kids who watching you 😛😛😛

Those skid plates looked good. Skid plates are definitely worth the money. I have installed a bunch of skid plates on my Colorado (not as many choices as a Jeep). Only one left is to do something for my gas tank. Taking the stuff off the undercarriage of the Jeep, I would have probably ended up with some of that dirt in my eye.

Honestly man, you should start your own channel. You’re great! Nothing against litebrite lol just saying you’re great for your own channel of installing and builds.

I’ve seen that broken air line twice with ARB’s. I’ve fixed both with blue flux coated 45% silver solder. In case you can’t get parts.

Northridge is awesome

Maybe even just coming out to hang out with you guys for a couple of days and having a good time might help me fight this addiction

Seems to me you could make your own RU-vid channel and start making money like Litebright does too !!! I enjoy your content and would totally subscribe !!

UHMW is also used in level III body armory plates. :) It's literally bullet proof!

Watching from Philippines..

i always wonder why those arb lines get routed so weird and not out the side they are on. I have the OX air shift and its all contained in the diff cover

Awsome🏁💨💨

Like you Guys, keep it up

Chris, do you recommend air lockers or e-lockers? I have an xj and not sure which locker style to go with.

so good!! :)

Chris, won't the radiator help with regulating the temps? Why not put the cooler on after the radiator? Awesome work!

That’s a very nice Jeep there as a cover photo 😉

Love what you are doing. But, you need to give us the kiss at the end. Lol

Need some advice Chris or Bec. Getting ready to change out my diff covers front and rear. I have the "paper/fiber" gasket. Should I put a thin coat of RTV sealant on with the gasket, or just the gasket alone?

Hi Chris! Fellow Chris here. Big fan. Did you scold the previous installer for the front arb fail AND using low pinion gears in the front axle? I wonder how it likes driving on the coast side of the ring gear 🤔😂 great job love watching these videos!

GO ABBY!!!!!!

Those skid plates - Appear not for install beginners. How you located which brackets go where, very impressive. Way to get the install completed.

Never thought I would be so interested watching you change a jeeps underwear 😂😅😆😂 Abby has been testing the Nitto's off it 😊😉

A 8:10 wouldn't it have been easier to put the carriage bolts in from the inside? Nice video either way Chris!

Hey Chris you should just get your own RU-vid channel you have good learning videos.

You guys have the ears of the manufacturers. PLEASE ASK THEM TO CONVERT ALL OF THEIR HARDWARE TO METRIC! Stock, the JK and JL Jeeps are all metric. Suddenly when you add aftermarket stuff, you have to start tossing inch based wrenches into the kit.

Chris please wear safety glasses .don’t need to be goin to you know what .plenty of fun ahead .good stuff .enjoy you’re new adventures 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😁😁😁✌️✌️✌️

With the copper tube. You could anneal it after the install so it won't be so brittle.

Do you ever work on YJ’s?

Gig em

Question where did you get the pegs to lift a jeep or are missing the feet?

Nice content as always, but one small point of criticism. It will be better to go over the ring gear with the copper line and make a sharp bent out, than run the copper line all the way down the housing and up again. Due to the long "bowed" route, the copper line will break much faster because of the vibrations and movement of the axle. The shorter the route, the more sturdy it is.

Waiting for mine but for the 2.0.

You can easily repair that part. Clean, carefully drill out broken copper line and re-braze line back in it.

Pretty sure he said OOH-RAH when he was making the swedge. 🤣 Semper Fi

Beck 😍😍

You and Becca need your own channel. I can't imagine brittany getting down to take diff cover off and pulling axles great lady

Double copression tool, wish I had that 20 years ago.

Beautimous

I am thinking about getting one of those skid plates but feel like it would be a big mess to do a oil change with out taking the skids off
