Great update. The Vevor puller works great. It's terrific that you've got your son involved. He will remember these times fondly when he gets older.

It blew my mind seeing that's how axles are attached to keep springs. It looks so flimsy to hold the weight of the car! Loving this series.

This man Knowles what he is doing a great restoration it is a gives from God well done you are doing a great job well done well done

The grille is quite satisfying. Nice to see tiny hands getting out to work!

Ditto!! Enjoyed watching.

I am loving this series, Jeremy, and you're making such good progress. I always look forward to to your videos, you're definitely one of my top favorite creators and I can't wait to see you tackle the body work.

You're right. Just imagine the struggle if there where no snow tyres on it. Well that was a big and delicate job well done.

That sheet metal stamped piece you wondered about is a slinger.

Amazing, I enjoy watching a true craftsman at work. Can’t wait for the work to continue.

As a fellow driver on the roads, I appreciate your concern for your safety, as well for the safety of my family as well. So I commend you for having the snow tires installed prior to the winter season, instead of endangering the entirety of humanity! Well done video, I apologize if my road safety wokeness offends.

I hardly think that considering there are other people on the planet, and considering their safety is not woke. It called responsibility, Something clearly lacking in many of our fellow citizens here in the US. On and off road.

I made that seal installer tool using some washers and an old head bolt

Enjoyable viewing Jeremy, thank you...

Those old Waren hubs are perfect. Thanks for sharing

J, I hope you can get the rope tow going this weekend! Great work on the jeep.

Just finished watching all of the Jeep series. Keep it up!

Super impressed with the amount of progress you have made on this project.

agreed! I like seeing machinist-types do mechanical work, with similar improvises/solutions/tools that we all would. I'm also excited to see Jeremy and others putting out more EV conversion/retrofits, fostering inertia/culture/expertise in the DIYers in that area

What fun watching you bring this one back! Looking forward to what’s next 👏

Genius, pure Genius !!

Love the videos on this old Jeep I’m fixing to start on one myself. Definitely doing the disk conversion.

Loctite bearing retainer all day lol I luv your vids man keep it up!

Lol wish I knew about that tool 2 wks ago. Had a right pain doing my Frontera. DIYer

I have a set of carrier bearings honed out ,they slide on and off the carrier . Use them to set up your rear side to side clearance. After it set ,them install your new bearings . Saves from having to pull new bearings and possible destroying the new bearings. I also use a long 1/2 extension and socket to remove and install inner axle seals

Making steady progress!

Got a suggestion earlier for your video getting the jeep out of the woods. Been watching the full series since. Great project. Went ahead and subscribed. Looking forward to seeing this project progress

Oi mate! Nice progress... And i agree with the mask... It gives a different feeling than just a rolling chassis...

Watching with interest. I've got a 59 CJ5 that needs similar treatment. It actually ran until a few years ago, but I'd really like to tear it down and restore it properly as opposed to just fixing whatever breaks every year, which was what I was doing.

Nice job all around, those warn hubs should serve you well.

Brilliant video as always ❤

Good content man! Keep it coming. Cheers!

The tin cup before the inner axle seal is to guide the axle spline and reduce the chance of munting the seal lip evert time the axle is pulled and reinserted.

So that tool is great, BUT - they give you the second knurled nut so when you set the height of the orange or black collar with the top knurled nut, youre supposed to snug the bottom nut up against it so youre not trying to use the puller against just the 2 or 3 threads of those thin nuts...... you use the one to back up against the other!! Youre lucky that Chinesium tool didnt shit the bed!

the piece on the outside of the inner axle seal is a ramp to guide the axle up through the hole in the seal. you're always better off to put a small amount of preload on jeep (or any 4wd) front wheelbearings. the rears can run 0.003" end float as they don't deal with steering stresses.

That tool looks pretty interesting. Should check if they make anything for wheel bearings as well. it's always a pain to get the stuck bearing race off from the axle tube or the other half of the bearing off the axle shaft.

That thing is coming together nicely. I believe 16 inch factory style wheels were available for those that may clear those brakes.

That’s probably the route I’ll go. I do have one 16” (was laying next to the jeep in the woods, I’m guessing it may have been a spare). It would fit with a spacer. I think some of the reproduction ones will work without the spacer.

He visto su video de desensamblaje del Jeeo Wyllis CJ5 1956. El chassis completo a punto de ruina total, por causa del oxido y barro. Una falta de mantenimiento total en cuanto a ducha de chassis. Este tipo de trabajo solo lo puede hacer unos mecanicos muy bien adiestrados y en un taller equipados con stop de herramientas bien completos. Como tambien un presuesto abierto a todo. Por tanto para poder hacer el trabajo del indio. Igualmente el trabajo de localizacion de repuestos y ensamblaje del tunel de trasmision delantera y trasera es un trabajo bien complicado y delicado.

An air hammer works pretty good on the bearings

Your beam torque wrench is exactly what to use for torsion measurements. A click-type is exactly what not to use. Lathe-made tools for the win!

You could clamp the puller horizontally in a vise with prismatic soft jaws. Depending on the vise even vertically. I think I only saw a small vise on your bench, might not work. If shipping wasn't so expensive I just happen to have big worn down non metric vises sitting around, with different levels of rebuilt necessary. But shipping is so expensive now 😔

I am in the process of rebuilding a Dana 27 for a 1971 CJ5. I also couldn’t get enough tension from the king pin bearings even with new bearings and races and no shims. I have never seen a washer placed between the top bearing and the knuckle. Do you know if the factory did this? I am thinking that I need to replace the pins themselves

Curious if you checked backlash and play before you took it apart.

I should have. I checked it on the rear and it was within spec, but I think I was approaching this based on the idea that I was going to replace everything anyway.

What if you wanted to change the gearing for a v6?

I love the large brass centers/knobs on the Warn hubs - - or does it just look like brass because of some heat treatment or patina on them?

These were now old stock, and they seemed pretty old.

After watching your video I contacted Vevor, in an attempt to start a dialog with them and get two questions answered. How on earth do you deal with these people? I asked them "I am working on a youtube video series on rebuilding a Dana 44 and a Dana 30 for the "$2500 Jeep" - does the 'D30,40,50 tool set' specifically fit the D44 axle?" and "what other tools do you make for the D44/D30 that would make rebuilding these easier? - their responses to my attempts to discuss this with them - FIVE TIMES SO FAR - was "send us your invoice number so we can contact the supplier to solve your problem" and "send us a link to what you ordered" and lastly "we understand your problem, send us a screenshot of your order so we can solve it". I just dont understand it......

It should work for the D44 just fine, i know the pinion bearings are the same as the 25, and the carrier bearings shouldn’t be too much different- it’s got a pretty wide range of sizes of bearings it will fit.

I think they banned studded snow tires in Ohio back in the mid 70’s. What are the regulations in your state for studded snow tires?
