In-Depth Tour of my 1993 Jeep Wrangler YJ! | Rattletrap YJ |

Rain really washed me out in this video, but anyways, I've had lots of questions about my jeep, so I figured I'd give a short walk around of my jeep and try to describe my build a little bit with some following background history! Below, I have listed what parts I'm using and their links for purchase. Some of the links I listed may differ, only because I've listed their upgraded, superior counter parts instead.
Underneath all of these links is the full mod list of my YJ!

Thank you for taking the time with all the links!! Your choices are so much like what I’ve had in mind. Well done. Mine is also a 93 and was garage kept all it’s life with only 128,000 miles! I never knew a vehicle could bring so much joy.

[@YJ-xg3xr]

Awesome YJ Man!

[@alejandromurat7566]

Saludos desde chile 🇨🇱🇨🇱👏👏👏

[@heavymetalguns5344]

Killer YJ man! I'm working on fitting out my 89 YJ that has 4.2 and 5 speed. (had a '92 over 25 years ago...that I sold and never could remember why). Enjoyed your in depth tour. Just got same headlights delivered, haven't installed...but more excited about them now that I see them on yours! Unlike most folks, I like the retro rectangles but this just gives them more modern vibe. I also have 15" rims with 33 MT's and 4" lift (RE 4" but not lifted shackles). Question for you: I noticed on your underneath shot, you don' t have transfer case drop. Did you have that before you installed SYE? Any issues with your lift and driveshaft alignment, etc., after removing TC drop? I'm planning on SYE this spring, and would love to get rid of the TC drop spacers like yours! Good job on your killer classic jeep!

[@OctaneSlain]

Yes, my jeep actually had a transfer case drop on it when I first bought it. But it was like homebrewed. The shackles were homemade too and super unsafe. When I first bought the jeep I knew they needed to be replaced, but I waited too long and they snapped in half. It caused me to run off the road and flip the jeep over. So, I learned the hard way... I went with the 4" Rough Country lift and removed the homebrew TC case drop and added the RC kit. (I wish I went with a different lift, but I was in college at the time and had a minimum wage job, so I tried fixing things with a budget lol.) Years later, I blew up the Dana 35 twice. Then sheared the ring gear and blew up the input shaft in my transfer case. So instead of fixing the D35 for the 3rd time, I decided to swap the Ford 8.8 under it. I had both diffs removed and matched up the shock and leaf spring perches and welded them to match the Dana 35. Then slapped that under the jeep. Bought an SYE kit and it came with the double carden shaft. Tore the transfer case apart and rebuilt it. Then threw the SYE on and it's been amazing ever since. With the SYE you need to angle your pinion to match the TC. Kinda like if you were aiming your rear diff pinion flange as iron sights on a gun, you'd "aim" it at the TC case. That will fix all driveline angles and you won't have any vibrations or excessive play

Excellent

[@scottsmith6571]

[@jcwoodman5285]

So do those headlights plug in or did ya have to wire em? I've got a 92 Sahara w/4.0 automatic. Original owner 185k🤗

[@Phil00661]

They just plug in, they sell them on Amazon

[@joshnasche5495]

Love it dude. Can't wait to make some upgrades to my jeep wangler YJ. I have a 92. How big of a gas tank do you have?

[@OctaneSlain]

20gal

[@brianchristenson6055]

Tanks on the yjs are all the same. If yours only takes 15 gals., drop the tank, yank out the 10” breather hose, cut it down to 3”, shove it back in the hole, put it back together, and you have a 20 gallon tank!)

[@brianpoole7581]

I have a 94 YJ Wrangler I'm fixing up

[@dewasudewa1398]

Mantap brooo. Jeep

[@mediaquest123]

U need to remove that gas can! Thats the only thang ugly on ur jeep! Plus if u wheel hard n fast it will almost taer right off, i know. Or keep it only 1/4 full. skeleton is cool, any links to that

[@braaappbraaappmaui5384]

Did you remove both track bars on your Jeep?

[@wesbarcus3761]

You don't really need track bars with leaf springs. You can take them off.

[@BULLYBLASTent]

your center console,.,.,. would you have more info on that please thank you

[@Emily-ky6qb]

its a stock YJ console, rare...especially those with working lids lol

[@BULLYBLASTent]

where did you buy that cb antenna .,., ?

[@bassdemalignon7631]

So I’m getting my grandfathers 1994 Jeep Wrangler and it needs to some stuff done to it. My question is where can you get full doors at?

[@brucerabideau2872]

You’re neighbors 😂

[@scottsmith6571]

What’s a 94 yj worth with 2.5 With 180k miles ? Hard top. Motor has 80k on it

[@jameshambrick9977]

Hi I have a 94 yj jeep wrangler and it runs great I need to replace the bottom piece of the windshield where my wiper arms go the rod inside there and the wiper arms and motor. My main issue that I have is frame rot can you please tell me what I can do about it any and all help will be greatly appreciated thanks

[@tommydunn4239]

yikes.. frame rot is no good. if it’s real bad you’re gonna need to strip everything off of it, repair the frame, and put it all back together. this can be good though if you want to do some upgrades like putting a lift on it or replacing the dana 35 with a ford 8.8

[@zachallard2737]

Idk if you will see this but how did the breaks fit together? What type of work did you have to do?

[@xfinixter8787]

How’s the road noice in yours having the soft top?

[@scottsmith6571]

I live in sc we don’t have any rust

[@tazzskillss]

The dislike is from people who don't have cars 😂

[@scottsmith6571]

Who makes a soft top for full doors now ?

[@Bigbeachbitch77]

I bought Best Top for my 95 yj 4years ago still like brand new. Plus a "boot" it folds n stores into (rides along top of back. I love the boot not only for protection of soft top, buy it adds extra height to keep my gsd's growling snapping head in lol Some folks still wanna pet the mean ass black German Shepard...go figure

[@Bigbeachbitch77]

Sorry I didn't explain where the boot sits very well...it rides along the top edge of the back where the rear door closes. I hope this helps

[@scottsmith6571]

I keep my vehicles

[@krod2162]

Sorry to say that bungee cord on your gas tank is not only dangerous. It's irresponsible other than that nice jeep As far as your stereo goes, most people use stereos designed for boats. They're made to get wet. And they last a long time because they're also made to take the pounding a boat gets

[@OctaneSlain]

The bungee cord has outlasted the rachet strap that came with the kit, and it's extremely tight. The jerry can is extremely secure. Not sure how it's dangerous, or irresponsible.

[@krod2162]

Bungee cords get dry and crusty, and then they fall apart. If the tank falls off in traffic could get Under a Moving car and spark up a storm Especially if you drive on the freeway. Bottom line is if you had half a brain. You'd secure it very well not with bungees that's what idiots do Sorry but those are the facts. If it was a can of water it might not be so bad

[@OctaneSlain]

Nah, it's secure and I don't let my bungee cords dryrot to that point it's an issue. I guess if you weren't a retard you'd understand that, but I'd imagine you're the type of moron that rides until his rotors are marred up before doing a pad change. Krod the nimrod should be your new username.

[@krod2162]

Anyone with half a brain would agree with me on this why take dumb chances especially with Gasoline This is the kind of stuff i've seen people do in mexico third world country They do dumb stuff like this and it turns out bad. You've got to be better than that. But from your reply, obviously you're not.

[@terrymorris415]

​@@krod2162I agree with OctaneSlain. Nothing dangerous about it when maintained. You're just one of those people that like making issues out of nothing.

[@Kyle-ev4fk]

Haha, Check out my Jeep I just threw all the bolt on catalog parts on it.

[@OctaneSlain]

Haha, yea. I especially enjoyed installing the catalog bolt-on Ford 8.8 rear diff.

[@fxrsniper1]

Nice jeep but that doesn't look like a real 4 inch lift Mine is Pro Comp on 33's and I have much more space between tire and finder than yours. I noticed you're still using those crappy factory gauges.

[@Bigbeachbitch77]

I have a 95 yj, looking to get new leaf springs and shocks. I watched your video...Great Job explaining your Jeep thank you. I've reached both sides of the fence on rough country 2.5" kit. Are you happy with your set up?...

[@dickwatch]

What do you do with the CB Radio?
