Excellent video!!!!

For the younger folks; Expresso Seth exercising mad mechanic skills. =)

This is so helpful. Just finished mine up last night. Thanks Seth!

So of them uses cage bearings instead of needle bearings.

Hold on, these Jeeps don't all weight the same - so the results will vary even with the same friction and stopping power...

Awesome.

Thats some ambition right there! Whats the plan, rebuild or repower?

Does Toyota or even any parts houses sell the APPS (automatic pedal position sensor)? The deal the drive-by wire is attached to on the throttle body. And I'm assuming the device with the four pin connector directly under the tps is the accelerator motor? Anyway. The telltale (I've been in the discussion forums since the late aughts on this unobtainian tps sensor) is you'll lose power for 100-200 ms/under medium / heavy load & the pedal is being held at a constant rate for a few to a dozen or so seconds. ie, not accelerating nor deaccelerating. Constant pedal position. And you find this symptom then the TPS is the culprit. Ive dealt with this for years. Limp home method until you can swap out the TPS (finally available) is to never use cruise cntl & quickly pump on the gas. Glad og issue was an easy fix. Probably not so much so in the rest belt.

Make sure that shift collar internal piece is oriented right. I bought this kit from Kaiser and I had to easy swap it around as the way it came was wrong.

If you were not doing any machining, did you sand the top of the engine and the bottom of the head?

So helpful! Thank you.

Hi, what T case is in the jeep. Was there an adapter between the trans and the bell housing, was the T case shifter connected to the adapter . What's the twin stick part ? Thanks

I might be 2 years too late but I appreciate the two-part series. I am currently in the process of replacing head gaskets on my 7.3 i d i non turbo diesel.

I run a 1991 Dodge 12 valve with a 5 speed standard, Getrag 360, and the manual calls for 5W-30 motor oil. Just like the song says, "the more I know, the less I understand". Lol

My needle has a spring on the back side. Would I set the 3/8" float spacing with this spring compressed or uncompressed? Also, the spring for the top of the metering rod... when I installed per the video the metering rod was binding and would not snap down when released. I had to move washer to the back side next to the nut (plus lock washer) and this allowed it to move freely and snap back when released like you said. This is how my original spring was on the metering rod.

Is this 4 wheel drive?

I have a 1972 Commando 304ci with a tubo300 is there a overdrive unit for this setup?

🤦🏾‍♂️ Tell everyone you don't understand anything about off-roading without actually telling everyone that you don't understand anything about off-roading.

Good Clip😊

I have mahindra cj 500 di 1994model jeep.😅 Super,less maintenence.😅

Like a glove! 😎

Is there a way to contact you directly?

Absolutely in love.

Wow. I'll bet getting it back in and lined up will be fun!

👍👍

Now that's how you squooooze an engine out!!!!! Ha ha ha !! Awesomeness! Thanks for the chuckles !!!! 🤙🐺🧙‍♂️🦊👍

Where's the Kubota Diesel? Lol

The most important accessory on any 4x4 is the nut holding the steering wheel

Welp, i have beeen wanting one of these things for yeears now, i have 3 Jeeps, a 90 Grand Wagoneer, 98 Grand Cherokeee 5.9 limited, and a 76 Jeep j10 i took on a year ago and rebuilt completeetly minus the bed sides so far..... there isa 62 fc 150, only 45 min from me, for $850, looks nearly complete minus fender flairs for the wheels in the back.. but its all there, engine cranks the owner says, but lots of rust in the cabin... but rust doesnt scare me at all as welding is my thing.... but i dunno if i should take on another project lol... uhg what do you think ? 850 is so cheap though

You gave a bad example. I can get all those to go up. I been in the woods and mudding and etc my entire life

being a good line picker has a lot to do with it as well as throttle control

Don't they test their stuff before selling it??

Thanks for the K/W how- 2!! A small detail, but can be important during transport of your stuff!! 🤙🐺🧙‍♂️🦊👍

Where was that at? And what info on the builds! Just when you think you've seen it all...!

Thanks for sharing, helped me out a bunch🤙

Pretty crazy, but cool just the same.

That's a clean engine. Looks brand new.

Soooooooooooo??? Ya gonna go the " lawnmower" engine Route next!!?? They scoot along the road fairly well.. But...haven't seen any out In the bush/ trails/ rock climbing , like you've done With blue,or Sarge!!?? Is that next on the plate?? C ya on the next video!!!? 🦊🧙‍♂️🐺

rotaries are fun but you need more low end torque for climbing and rotaries are notoriously bad at low end torque, fuel mpg, and reliablity. thats why they are in light sports cars not 4x4's. if you don't have a low of low end torque then you'll need really stupid low gears to make up for it!

Look at the setup on the Willy’s, not stock one bit every one of those other jeeps still had their leaf spring suspension the Willy’s didn’t so it was able to flex better and get better traction, absolutely not a thing to do with the motor

Ya that was a traction and driver errors, engine had nothing to do with that.

Cool find

thank you for the video. It looks like your canvas strap is OD#3 (tan) in color. On the Kaiser Willys website, they have them only in OD#7 (green) and not in tan. Part # B1920. How did you get tan ones ? Am I looking at the wrong part number?

I enjoyed this video

Rollbar AND seat belts. They have to be used in conjunction or you’re actually putting yourself at greater risk than not having either.

Other than weight, the type of engine powering it has literally nothing to do with its performance in this situation

I picked up a 57 wagon with a husky overdrive. At the time didn’t even know what it was. But now I know. I watched a few videos and now I’m a KZbin t90 rebuild “professional” mechanic.

That was a deal! If you pull the detent ball out of overdrive would you mind to tell me the diameter. Mine fell out and I can’t find a size for a replacement.

Totally rebuildable with the WARN O.D.!! If you can't rebuild it, flip it and make your money back.

well, amc was going to buy the wankel motor from GM, but atr the last minute GM pulled out of the deal and sold the motor to mazda. the move ultimately killed amc a lot sooner than might have happened if they had gotten the motor. they had sunk a lot of money into the pacer, which was supposed to run that motor, but after gm pulled that on them they had to scramble and some how fit one of their existing motors into that car. made them heavier and less gas efficient than they would have been with the wankel.
