@keineangabe894 TY 🙏 A lot of do, on my Instagram @frankrubicon_ its heading for 5 million views! It's unbelievable! I never thought that millions of people would hear me yapping! Crazy! And from what I have heard from Father Arcoleos congregation and family members, he's truly a great man and priest, I tell ya, I totally didn't see this coming, out riding all day with a couple friends, heading home and end up getting blessed by a catholic (I'm also catholic) priest 🙏 You never know what is going to happen next in NY

@frankfilippone9679 wow! 5 million is actually crazy. I first saw your video in combination with a comic made of those meme faces. It was a bearded, rough looking rider and a gently smiling priest. Anyhow I came back to this video several times because it radiates such a peaceful serenity. God bless and all the best from Germany 😊✝️

@zando66 Yes sir 🙏 I think I put it in the description? I'm sorry if I didn't? This is Father Arcoleo of St Catherine's in Franklin Square NY, this was a completely random blessing 😆 I was riding around NY/Long Island all day with 2 friends, made sure they got home safely, I only ride with people I know, and can ride NY ( Evasively We have no choice, this place is dangerous) So I'm sitting at the stop light, all of sudden, I have a priest doing a B-Line at me! I couldn't hear him to good, really didn't even know what he said, bikes loud, NY is noisy and I was caught completely off guard? But, and this is why I said "I'll take everything I can get!" It couldn't hurt to have a Holy Force Field around you being how crazy 😜 it is here! So father Arcoleo going out of his way to bless me, means a lot to me 🙏 I'm catholic, made all my sacraments, years of CCD classes! Super nice of father! And on my Instagram @frankrubicon_ it's almost at 4 Million views, yes, I said 4 Million! Everyone loves Father Arcoleo and his "Stunod!" 😆 and his Oldschool Italian/American 🇺🇸 ways! TY for your comment 👍 And if you can? Check out my Instagram @frankrubicon_

@ god bless you brother. Merry Christmas 🎄❤️

@zando66 Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 And God bless 🙏

@@70Marc Forgot to go pro.Did the best I can.I don't know how to do any of this stuff.I just got video from people's phones wherever I could.This was the best I could do

@ well, I did enjoy what I could see. But you’ve got a nice and interesting truck. Shoot nice clear videos, and no background music. Just the truck and spotters comments. I and others will give you likes, and maybe subscribe. Thanks for posting.

@70Marc Because they came to me as texts, they weren't very clear, I've been posting videos for almost 15 years, I have a recent (@frankrubicon_ on Instagram) video that's up to 3.7 million views and steadily going up, same video I have on this channel that has 1900 views, of the Priest blessing me randomly on my motorcycle at a stop light, and yes, I said 3.7 million! 😆 I've been motovloging for way over a decade, but when we go offroad, it's hard to get someone to grab my phone/gopro and constantly film, I'm 50 years old and the majority of my offroad friends are in their mid 20s and have little to no attention span. And we're New Yorkers and although people love to listen to us yap (3.7 million views 😆) Some may not understand us completely, they're good kids and I try my hardest to be as good as a person as I can. But even without a racist bone in my body, I've been accused of being a racist? So instead of worrying about what everyone is saying, I just threw this together from my phone, really just to preserve the memories. And like I said, I'm 50 years old, I've never sent an email, I have my Instagram and KZbin channels because someone set it up for me. When it comes to tech, I missed the boat 🚢 😫 So for years, I've been posting straight video, and some (Old Frank Rubicon channel) have made it to a few comps that have millions of views! And some blew up by themselves! But I really would love to get some help editing. If you look up Frank Rubicon on KZbin, you'll find years of videos and motovlogs, and even my good friends who are big time KZbin people, don't have the time to help me, I tried on my own, and didn't get very far, couldn't understand the software, I'm planning on figuring out something? But just bought a basket case of a house and I'm currently a little busy, so I just been slapping these videos together and forced to use my phone, I'm eventually going to find some help with the editing but this was just so I can send it and show it, and please check me out on Instagram @frankrubicon_ and definitely check out the priest video, crazy! You never know what is going to happen here in NY? And TY for watching, I was half asleep when I answered to and beat up from working nonstop on this freaking house 🏠 and glad you like my Tacoma Solid Axle Swap, she works great and is getting F350 front and rear axles soon and 40" tires, but she works perfectly the way she is, but once the 1 ton axles go in, she'll be pretty much unstoppable!

@@frankfilippone9679 wow, you are a busy guy. My apologies for the critique. Keep doing what you’re doing.

@70Marc It's been nonstop, plus the priest video blowing up my phone, I had to shut my alerts off, I just checked, 3.8 million views now! With all this going on, I probably shouldn't have gone on a offroad trip, but needed some fun! And TY for apologizing, but believe me, it's my dream to actually edit these videos properly, but just on the bottom of the list at the moment, please when you get a chance, check out the other videos and my Instagram @frankrubicon_

@@nilychkirilov Thank you 😊 🙏

@Amir-mq4jy TG! Someone actually watched it on my KZbin! 😆 This video is at 2.6 million views on my Instagram @frankrubicon_ ! But I'm not super religious, I was raised catholic, and just the way he b-lined at me just to bless me and call me stupid in Italian slang, really nice of him! I totally appreciate it, and from reading a few thousand comments, some from his congregation and relatives, he's a great man! 👍 And I need the blessing riding 🙏 a motorcycle here in NY, TY for the comment 🙏

@@smeghead765 TY and God bless 🙏

@world-knowers My front axle is a Hybrid axle, it's made out of a Dana 30HP, with Dana 44 outers from a Chevy k10 pickup truck and it's sleeved, so the tubes are 1/2 inch thick, it also has 6 lugs , locker and matching gears, but it's eventually coming out and I have 1 ton axles from (I actually have the whole truck $500) a 2003 Ford f350 V10 4x4, I would suggest you find a Dana 44HP from a Ford F150 or go straight to the 3/4 ton or 1 ton axles, but it was the best mod I've done and I drive her every single day! It's my daily driver, I love my truck 🛻 And I highly recommend doing the S.A.Swap, I used the Trail Gear any axle kit, but the leaf springs are garbage 🗑 I swapped them out for a set of ALCAN springs, custom made for my truck, I'm going to be honest, the whole fiasco isn't cheap! But 1000000% worth it! Even for my hybrid Dana 3044HP, it's still way stronger than IFS! IFS sucks! It broke coming down off a curb! Junk! And now I'm running 38x13.5x17s and no problem! Anymore info, I'll be glad to help, and you can find me on Instagram @frankrubicon_

@stanislavkotzev4157 The gopro really doesn't do it justice and TY for understanding, I don't know if you caught (I got rid of it, guy sounded like a real yoyo) the other comment, but the commenter said I was only going 20mph I guarantee I was going way faster, and harley davidson speedometer is grossly under. But what blows my mind is that he didn't notice that I'm about to merge into the right lane with cars flying at me 50-70+ MPH lol and I'm dancing a 700 pound motorcycle over an oil spill and giant gray rocks 🪨 Like way bigger than the ones in his head. 😆 And what people really don't understand is I live on the NY islands, it's insane to drive here let alone ride a motorcycle! But you, you seen how quickly that was about to go down! Thanks brother 👍 Honesty, it was scary, I've been riding for over 35 years, but the NYC/ Long Island area is crazy 🤪 People don't give a fk about you, I've lost so many friends! It's a very dangerous place, especially for motorcycles, people will roll right over ya, and keep on going! It happens every day here, people suck! Not to mention that every single person is Concentrating on the phone. Fixated on it. It's out of control! This place is not easy, everyone who rides has horrible stories! But thanks for understanding and please check out my other videos on my KZbin channel, just had a random NY Priest run up and bless me! That was a NY moment, let me know what you think? Later brother

@sweetbarry TY , So freaking random!

@moto-stars Don't mind, but please tag me as @FRANKRUBICON_ You can use any of the videos on my KZbin channel and Instagram @frankrubicon_ Check out the one with the priest I just posted

@moto-stars No problem 👌

@@frankfilippone9679 Thanks!

@@moto-stars Please "@FRANKRUBICON_ 🙏

@@lyndallbrakes With thanks to you and the Great Paul Lyndall 👍 Love you guys!

@jeremyhilton8964 Nope, just a carbide hole saw and some blue painters tape and some very careful measurements, basically line up the cover with the risers bolt holes, and drill them out, slip everything through the cover, and bolt them up, it was actually pretty easy, I replaced the riser bushings with aluminum one's, you can use poly but I recommend the aluminum, I've put bars and risers on a lot of HDs and for some reason? When you torque down the risers, it cocks the bars a little crooked? Sometimes people don't even realize their bars are not completely straight, so the aluminum bushings makes everything straight, any bumps or questions, please let me know

@itzzgraham Thank you brother 🙏 I knew you'd like it! 👍 She's my pride and joy, can't wait to install my F350 1 Ton Axles, I picked up a 2003 F350 V10 4x4 with 27,000 miles from the H.S. my friend is a shop teacher at , its rotten, unfortunately, but the front Dana 60hp and the Sterling rear axles are mint! And having the whole truck helps with odds and ends parts, I'm going to have to upgrade the brake booster and master cylinder to 1 ton something or tundra parts? But I have the ford shit from the truck, so if I can make it work, I definitely will! She's going to be a monster, after that, do a doubler t-case, taco 🌮 box or an Atlas t-case? Not sure yet? It's kinda been 1 thing at a time, this is one of the reasons, I went with the smaller front axle, I'm going to be selling both of my axles that are in my truck 🛻 now Front Axle - Dana 30HP / 6 lug Toyota/Chevy wheel 🛞 pattern, with Chevy k10 pickup from brakes, and outer Cs and soon ball joint eliminators ($550) Upper and Lower/Custom Chromo axle shafts from Dutchman Axles (Made for my custom hybrid axle housing) & OX HD U-Joints / Housing is Fully Sleeved 1/2" Thick / New Warn Premium Locking Hubs / Spacers will be included / Drop In Axle Locker / 4.56 Gears to match the rear axle gear ratio (Would work perfectly with a V6 Tacoma) Rear Axle - Fully Rebuilt Professionally By The 4x4 Place in NJ (They did my S.A.Swap) Basically Stock Rear with a Detroit TruTrac Locker (HD Posi & Recently done) , 4.56 gears ⚙️ Spacers included I paid 2000$ plus another around 1800$ in upgrades just for the front axle I'd take $3000 for both, and here's the thing, it's completely set up for a solid axle swap, Trail Gear any axle kit, which isn't super expensive, with the Trail Gear Axle, it's around 10,000$ without I think it's around $1500 or so, I built the hybrid axle for this swap, so she'll literally bolt in after the leaf spring kit is installed! Much easier! And this is for a first Gen Tacoma S.A.Swap, but could work with other years, but First Gen Tacoma is the best Gen! The Last of the True Toyota Minitrucks !

@itzzgraham It's a long message, but read it, it's a great deal for you if you get a Tacoma and do the right thing and put a real truck axle in the front, not no horrible IFS, I broke a ball joint coming off a curb! Garbage 🗑 I left my IFS in a dumpster in NJ 😆

@itzzgraham TY brother 🙏 This is on the 35x12.5x16s milestar Patagonia tires MT01s , now she's on 38x13.5x17s next is 40s and 1 tons! Look threw the other videos, last trip (No Trailer Ever!) to Rausch Creek PA offroad park, I ended up with the big rigs! The small group was a 4dr JK Wrangler from Hell and a Custom fully exo caged Ranger with a 4BT Diesel swap and both running full long travel coilovers, 42+ tires, and a decent TJ Wrangler (George) I was in over my head as usual, not that she's not really capable, but they have Trailers and 100,000$ plus tow rigs, I'm in my 1 and only daily driver! But she hung all day and drove me home, no problem! My front axle is a Dana 30HP with Oldschool Dana 44 outers, from a old full size jeep, or in (Same thing) case 1985 Chevy k10 pickup, it's fully sleeved 1/2 inch thick, locker, Custom cromo Dutchman Axle shafts, OX U Joints, it's the most overbuilt D3044HP in the galaxy! But she's getting fully built Axles front and back from a 2003 F350 V10 4x4, Dana 60hp front axle and Sterling Rear, she gonna gain around 1000 pounds! But with the light minitruck body and the heavy Axles she'll be awesome stable! Can't wait, soon as we get the house we've been hunting for, Axles are getting fully built, she's already a little beast, then she'll be a monster! Check out Instagram @frankrubicon_ Check this offroad videos and the 10 million pictures and vlogs and videos of my 2003 Harley Davidson FXDP 1550cc former police bike, that's my other baby!

A 14 year old girl bought it and her and dad are fixing her up, it's actually her 4th bike, there is some hope for the future! TG

@@frankfilippone9679 damn! I thought I was the only young person working on these lol The exact same bike actually popped up on my Facebook 2 days ago in a Suzuki group It looks really good now

That's awesome ! We're in the process of trying to find a house, and moving, lost mom the end of last year, and been a little down, plus working on these vehicles constantly it seems like, but soon as we settle into our next house 🏠 I'll be back in full swing! Thanks brother, I appreciate the words 🙏 And my Dyna and Truck 🛻 are family, they'll never be sold, they're my friends

@@frankfilippone9679 Thats a lot going on at once I hate to hear about the passing of your mom losing any family member can be especially tough. Sometimes its good to have projects to throw yourself into. I look forward to the summer city rides on the dyna or the back roads. Take it easy my friend

Thanks brother, please let me know when you're available for a Ripp! Miss you brother

TY, really appreciate it

Yes, great trucks 🛻 But, please watch one of my newer videos, she doesn't look like this no more, it's not the same now, I did a solid axle swap, and fell in love with her all over again, please, check it out

Bike ran great, it was my Auto Shop Teacher friends Bike, and he had an accident and lost his left eye to a bench grinder stone that exploded in his face, went straight through his face shield, but he didn't sell it to stop riding, he sold it to buy a bigger bike! He ended up buying a brand new DR 650 and rides almost every day, so I picked the bike up from him for a quick flip, and an awesome 14 year old girl bought it and started restoration, and get this, it's not her first bike, or 2nd, it's her 4th bike! Her and dad ride and I guess he ended up with the son he never had and she is going to be one awesome chick when she grows up! She already is! Thanks for the comment and info, I'm a Harley Davidson guy but I love them all! If it's cool and has wheels, I love it!

@@frankfilippone9679 damn thats horrible. Good he got his spirits up again and started riding again though. I just got a 88 sp200 for 300 or so with some issues. No front light, rear brake not working and it needs a new chain and sprockets. The engine runs nicely though. Cool that she is restoring it. I will probably restore mine as well, making it look and work like new, but first I will fix the essentials and use it for some time. I have a regular dr200se as well 06. In my experience just doing some minor changes to the dr200 or sp200 will make it feel like a completely different bike. It is completly nerfed due to emission regulations. So just by changing to a affordable OKO carburator, modify or install an aftermarket exhaust and remove the airbox lid will completely transform the bike into a fun little ripper. I have actually never ridden a Harley allthough I have A honda 1100 cruiser.

@Rocketman0407 It's a love/hate relationship with Harley Davidson, my bike (You can see it on this KZbin channel and Instagram @frankrubicon_) I've changed everything! And once you get the H.D. bugs out of it , they are great bikes! The feeling you get from riding a Harley is like nothing else, I've rode everything, and I do love motorcycles in general, but my Dyna FXDP is my favorite! It brings you back to when motorcycles were primitive, it's a 2003 but the design goes back to the beginning, even some of the newer bikes, my bike is a former police bike, and I love Harleys so much its tattooed on my arm with the famous "Broken Wings" , my friend had a similar sticker on his 66 GTO when I was a kid, it's a 1550cc or 95ci S&S motor with some work and a 42mm Mukuni carb , she moves for a 600lb + bike, we ride with all sorts of bikes, we don't discriminate, like some Harley guys, and I even took my road test on a 2015 Honda Grom which is one of my favorites! I borrowed it from my professional stunt rider friend Big Mark Bloxx , we had to take the stunt parts off and put the mirrors back on, but it worked perfectly! It's nice having my license after 30 + years of riding dirty, I'm finally legit

That's a good question 😆 the center D30HP section is from a jeep XJ , the axle tubes are fully sleeved 1/2 inch thick, the outer Cs/Knuckles are up to 1985 Chevy k10 pickup Dana 44, it's what's known as a Hybrid Axle, it also has custom cut Chromo Dutchman Axle shafts with OX HD U joints, Locker and it's 6 lug to match the rear axle, it's pretty strong for what it is and really light, eventually when she's (I'm in it right now) not my Daily Driver, she'll be getting 1 Tons, but being my Tacoma is 4 cylinder Auto, lightweight was a thing, I just couldn't get myself to fix the IFS after it broke, I feel like, real trucks have solid axles! She drives great, and the hydraulic ram assist helps that a lot, as you can probably tell, I love my truck 🛻

And it's actually handling 38x13.5x17 tires, no problem

No problem, go right ahead 👍

I was there for around 10 hours, this is the 1 video I took, and I only took it cause this was the last one, I barely ever look at my phone, never sent a email in my life, don't text and drive, don't have Facebook, 48 years old and I have no idea how to use a computer, all I know is Cars, Trucks and Motorcycles! Don't even know how to play baseball or any sport, just making memories, so say what you want about "The Phone Zombies" but that, that ain't me brother! You have no idea, I'm known for Yelling at yoyos who text and drive, I Fuckin hate that Shit! And couldn't of had a better time celebrating the Man , Legend that is Indian Larry! RIP INDIAN LARRY 🙏 You did know this Annual Block Party is in memory of One of the greatest bike builders there ever was and ever will be? As for the burnouts, I could definitely live without, just recording some memories, like I've been doing since the days of VHS + 8mm

And it's also America 🇺🇸 and we do whatever the fuck we want! Free Country, I have no control over the "Phone Weilding Zombies" 😆 Believe me I'd like to
