When I think thats my jeep have everything, you appear with this video.

wow thats a crazy jeep, looks amazing

Perhaps get more closeups of how the builder packaged suspension, engine, trans/ transfer cases... etc, in your walk around vids so those who are looking for ideas can see how the builder accomplished their goals. Awesome footage to show the capabilities of the rig and the in depth discussion of all mods was spot on!

I second this. Also any feedback from the builder about the challenges overcome. The detail about how the frame was constructed on this jeep to provide clearance for the axle in the front, but drop down low enough in the middle to protect the drive train was interesting. Having some shots on jack stands with the tires off would be cool as well.

I will try to get some photos on my IG of the suspension and clearances as a quick run down some of the biggest challenges were the exhaust routing, coming up with a radiator fan comb that is small enough but adequate. And for sure font axle packaging between upper link mounts hydro bumps steering lines coilover mounts and still have full turning radius.

203 rage box would be a great addition adding a 2:1 reduction on command and ability for front only digs if needed off road design makes the kits to bolt right in between the trans and transfer case

Kap gets a walk around before Franz!? Oh well... it's still a great Jeep too. Nice work on the video, Nate.

Thanks for doing this. Based on extensive youtube research I'm convinced that if you are building a ground up jeep these days for rock/trail use that the meta is a stretched TJ or YJ, LS, auto, on 42's.

This should defenetly be a segment on your channel. Loved it keep up the great content. Keep representing the pnw.

Once again, DL setting the new standard for what a genre of video COULD be. Super impressed with that outtro montage man. Doin it right!

My first jeep was a 95 Yj. Love this build!

THANKS to you , we fired up our first junk yard rebuild yesterday! Your “straight to the point” videos are some of the best. We have real jobs and no sponsors, so budget mined swap was the path we took. Keep up the GREAT WORK!

One of the best sit down "walk arounds" iv seen NICCCEEE!!!!

Thank you!!! Finally a video that covers wheelbase lengths.

BRO YES!! More YJ goodness!

Love. Just love. Great rig walk around style too; different, fun, and informative.

Love everything about that build. Amazing work!

Well, I must say Nate, you nailed it. After watching the previous vids I certainly had my eye on that YJ! I owned my first Jeep, a '92 YJ for almost 15 years and it too, was Black! Cool! Although I now have an LJR... YJ's will always have a place in my heart and they always, no matter how they are built, catch my eye.

First time ever to click the like button (and commented) before the start of the video. I have wanted to see more on that yj since you went to Moab. That thing looks like very little effort is needed to clear the obstacles it is on. Love it! We (son and I) have a 94 on 37's with a sbc and th400. It has a Pro Comp coil spring conversion that was sold as a kit a long while ago. Thanks Nate for listening to what the subscribers asked for!

Great build. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent video !!!

Loved the montage at the end, one of the baddest yjs out there. mine wont even compare when it done!

Love the build. Awesome rig. Awesome content. Keep it coming. I'd like to hear and see more on the front and rear frame stretch.

Hell of a Jeep build! 👍🏻 and good job on the video Nate, I think the format/editing worked well!

For the crawl box check out northwest fab they have a eco box or a black box that can go in between

Editing is top notch Nate!

Awesome!!!!!!!!! When you have a Jeep it is always a work in progress. That is just the way it is.

Love the Jeep. Very similar to what I plan to build. Great videos.

Awsome build, I'm running the stock rubicon transfercase 08 jk, behind a 4l80e that's behind an 8.1 big block, works awesome on my jk for offroad crawling, just did hell's revenge at 2021 jeep safari, also great on highway.

Great video! As usual !

Awsome build! I am building my 89 right now and it was good to see different ideas! I'm running 3 link in the front, 4 in the rear and 14" fix coil overs, narrowed super 60 up front and 10.5 sterling I the rear. I couldn't get my hands on a 6.0 so I got a 5.3 with the 4L60E. The trand makes me nervous lol but it has a good 1st gear, told I can build it up.

I'm actually going from 107" to 115" with a back half. 107" felt too short for anything bigger than 40s on the terrain I wheel. Also I like to go fast. Planning to drop a om606 in also. I do have to say Pitbull doesn't stand behind their products. Just warning potential buyers. All 4 of mine (41.5r17) had the beads fail after 3-4 runs and maybe 300 miles. It was apparently a bad batch of tires but they won't replace them. 🤷‍♂️

You two could easily be brothers.

That Jeep is badass

I've been planning my jeep out, and I thought I had it figured out. But when I saw his YJ in the video last week I had to rethink the entire build and needless to say it's gonna take much longer now lol

Sick jeep and video

My 97 TJ got a 500hp LS3/4L80/Atlas swap. Went 5:1 on the Atlas. 4.56 with 37's. Does pretty well. Need to jump to 40's tho. You have an Awesome rig.

That's a hell yeah outro! Good info and great dialogue!

That was such a great type of vid to add to your arsenal, nate! I really like the idea of folks talking about their builds, their goals, and how they got to where they are now, and what they'd do differently. This kind of first-hand information is invaluable to people like me who are only a fraction of the way into their builds. My biggest takeaway is that I pretty much need to stop where I'm at with my JKU and get a buggy for the more challenging stuff, so I don't ruin my JK, which is by no means a trailer queen or grocery getter. It gets used hard, but Im not down for the whole body damage/body shop routine. I need to drop the swiss army knife idea and just build another crawler/offroader... to add to the, already bursting quiver of sand rails, quads, side by sides and a track car. Its a sickness, yes, and I'm chest deep!

Sick intro man!

Love the slow-mo B-roll at the end!! You should do that more often when appropriate!

Rubicrawler crawl box go's between the 42RLE auto transmission and transfer case. ( stock TJ JK transmission)

I was surprised by the transfer case option but it makes some sense if you’re running the skinny pedal to the floor often. I have a simple 5.3 with a low lift cam paired with a 4l60 and a 2016 4:1 case. I’ve kept myself from doing full send due to the chain drive but man is it tempting lol. Awesome build and even more awesome he’s done most of it himself!

I stretched my Defender to 103'' that worked very well. I put my Discovery at 120'' and bobbed the back, clocked the transfer case, also the sills were removed and I built very close sliders that became part of the door jam sill and axle plates.

Love your videos man!

@@amkaperick you could keep your transfer case and run a crawl box in front of it but that'll add around 8" to your drivetrain and your low range options would be 2.72 to 1 and 7.4 to 1 which I thought was too low with a V8 and an auto. The other option is one of the crawl boxes to a 205. That'll give you the 2.72 and then a 5.33 to 1 but then your speed sensor will have to be on the transfer case output shaft and I'm not sure how it would shift in low range.

Hey man I really love the videos. Entertaining and educational. I was hoping maybe you could make a video on some tips for welding, aluminum specifically. I'm kind of self learning right now and could use some advise. Thank you for the great videos!

Exactly what I'm doing with my tj

Sweet, I've been wondering what the specs were on that beast. Great job as always Nate!

I wish you guys where shifted over to the left side of the screen so the jeep was in full view. It just looks so sick

That is a bad ass YJ right there. I thought any old TBI 5.7 in a Jeep would be plenty of power.... Now that I have wheeled with it for a while and went to 40's I think a build 6.0 like Kapp's sounds like a much better option.

As many of the commenters have said, NWFab. Take the guts out of that NP241 and put them into their EcoBox, then run a married NP205 from a Ford behind the EcoBox. 1.96, 2.72 or 5.33 options. Only adds a few inches of length compared to a normal slip-yoke NP241.

this is literally exactly what I'm building my yj into. probably throw a 203/205 doubler behind a nv4500!

North west fab makes a doubler called the eco box its a 2.72 unit that uses the 231/241 6 planetary gear set

One day my yj will be that cool

Check with Stephen Watson at off road design. There magnum box may be what your looking for. It's basically the low range of the 241 in a separate box

Klune-V reduction may be a good option. Not sure if you can still get them but they are a nice short unit and I believe are a 4-1 reduction.

thanks for the walkaround, this is pretty great but i would love to know belly height. also for gear reduction he could look at a ford 205 with a nwf black box that would give a 1.96 low range with an optional 2.72 low range for a total of 5.33 low range with both. that combo would also be an inch or so shorter than the 241 that is currently in there. edit: offroad design also makes a version of what nwf markets as their black box.

In no way am I trying to be rude. You mentioned it was your first "walk around" and I enjoyed the video and I wanted to provide a little feedback. In my opinion you could of used more B-roll when yall were talking about various parts. The majority of the film is yall sitting on stools talking about that sweet Jeep sitting behind you. Don't get me wrong, the information is awesome. Just more Jeep footage would of been great. It would of been really cool if Andy had some pictures or film of the build process as well. We'll be in the Washington / Oregon area around September or October. Maybe we can all hit some trails. Again great video and love the channel man 🤙 -Thomas

Look into the offroad design doubler cases / magnum box for the T case.

Full sit around 😂 great build

Atlas 4 speed all the way. My favorite part on my Jeep. Should hold up fine to the power. Great video like usual but how about some up close footage of the build. I like looking at other folks builds. Helps give me ideas.

Northwest Fab makes a underdrive that will get the job done. Titan black box will handle that horsepower no problem.

Amazing work and what a sound that makes!! You guys are covering all the best options with the different approaches you have. Great film as always Nat. What's the track you used at for the soundtrack for this video?

Awesome

Nice build 👌. Just shy of the LJ.

I believe off road design as a crawl box

Northwest fab makes a great crawl box that uses parts from 231/241

Talking about turning radius. So my 2001 Ford F350 Superduty Crewcab Long bed on air bags and 35's is 22' long and if I crank the wheel quick enough it only takes 5 lanes to do a U-Turn

I wish I had the know how to do all that myself🤯

Check into North West Fabs black box. I run one in my yj with a 383 fuel injected stroker with a sm465 trans and np 205 Tcase, and it is a beast with the 42s that I run.

Magnum Box !! Mine has lived behind a big block
