Great video and audio using the GoPRO 8. Great work, it is wonderful to see fabrication still happening in the world today, and I always tried to think of it as developing your technique, when trying something new.

[@theswimshop4x4]

Thank you and thanks for watching and commenting.

[@theswimshop4x4]

So you have an A-Team van too. Thanks for watching.

[@PieceNGrease]

Great video Guys . I’m gathering parts ! Can’t wait to work together!

[@theswimshop4x4]

Thanks man!! We got to start planning!!

[@briandrake9467]

I never saw the a-team connection, but I get it now. I'm the guy with the altered wheel base wheelie stander, 64 econoline pu, and I just got the 91 blue, fully loaded Chevy hightop conversion van with 98k miles..

[@theswimshop4x4]

Awesome!! Thanks for watching.

[@lonoreturns]

To bend pipe with heat you need to ram the sand tight. If possible cap one side. Some sand them ram more sand and ram. Continue till almost full then ram the end tight with a rag. Should heat and bend no problem.

[@theswimshop4x4]

Thanks for the info and thanks for watching.

[@barryhebert5839]

One day I’m build an a-team clone

[@theswimshop4x4]

Looks like we already have a few ourselves.

[@bradleymadosh911]

Also change the press from hydrologic to air using harbor freight stuff. There is videos of that on KZbin also. If you check into a lot of stuff you will see how easy it is to do. Even the LS motors you just take everything out for wiring and computer and fuse box it will run with only a few wires hooked up. Don't need to tune it or anything. Just as easy as the old motors but they have more power then the old 350 blocks. A 4.8 is faster then a 359 even. Have to up your skills so you's will have more work and better ways of doing things. Just my opinion I guess thow🤷🏽

[@theswimshop4x4]

Thank you.

[@bradleymadosh911]

Watch some KZbin videos on those cheep harbor freight pipe bender. They add some parts to them so they don't kink the pipe.

[@theswimshop4x4]

I have had one. Not a fan for what we will be doing. Planning on getting something a little better. Thanks for watching.

[@rorer7147]

Need to get Oden a huge gold collar and a cape for your A Team admirers. Then teach him to bite...

[@theswimshop4x4]

Haha!! Good idea. I'm getting a bunch of gold chains and a mohawk.

[@HermanMunster-o2j]

U turn that 401 7k rpm u'll be pickin that valve up in the next county 😂😂😂😂😂

[@theswimshop4x4]

Nah! Done it many times over the years.

[@bradleymadosh911]

Why not just 4 Link the front end? Easier and ride a lot smoother those leaf springs ride hard and don't get much flex out of them.

[@theswimshop4x4]

Nothing against 4 link. We just like leaf springs, always have always will. Thanks for watching.

[@CoreyAtkinson-eg3il]

Did you guys use the stock rear spring hangers or modify them

[@theswimshop4x4]

Stock

[@bigghoss762]

I've seen Chevy van motorhomes with extended noses. I don't know what the purpose of it was but if you could track one of them down you might be able to use the front clip and push the engine forward maybe. It would be almost as ugly and Hilary Clinton in a bikini but it might just let you run a blower without having to cut up the cowl and windshield and all that.

[@theswimshop4x4]

That's an idea, but I think I'd take Hilary. Lol. Thanks for watching.
