IT'S ALIVE! This Hemi Jeep is INSANE & a Rock Crawling BEAST!

[@hondaman4423]

You can tell Chris is proud of his creation, and he should be!

[@brandonsearle990]

Yes he should

[@jnxius]

You know what else is insane....how ridiculously incredible Chris is at what he does.

[@carltrano1325]

Time to give Chris a bigass pay raise

[@richsmith3120]

We just can't wait for the test run and the after thoughts on the build and then it's done! Chris is definitely a mechanical genius! Happy Trails to all at LBN!

[@AMW-505]

Chris is the man. Truly a talented mechanic that can simply make anything happen. Great build once again he never fails to amaze.

[@willy3177]

The Stepchild jeep is a beautiful beast. Makes a great test bed.

[@Lostparadise1776]

I would trust Chris to build a space shuttle! Or anything for that matter!

[@xxBlazinBobxx]

Step Child version 4.8751 looks great! Version 4.8752 will be even better!

[@wvlongshooter3912]

Wow, what a great team you guys are!!! It’s so enlightening to watch you guys all get along!!! It’s like a match made in heaven!! Thanks!!!

[@67wildwolf]

And once again Chris is the master! The Step Child looks sick! Nice job guys! Four feet dam ........THATS CRAZY!

[@jeffro8373]

The Step Child 3.695724 is freaking badass!!!❤️❤️💯🤙

[@durtydaddyrc]

Whats that Kevin you need rear steer as well lol😂😂😂

[@Bennett-xo6iu]

Stepchild looks amazing...can't wait to see her climbing some rocks...

[@TJ_and_The_Mity_200]

Crickey that is Next Level Suspension, Well done Chris. Hey I vote Chris puts This Suspension set up on His Beast.. HELL YEAH 😁😁😁 Love from The Land Down Under 😘 😘 😘

[@JV220]

Sick craftsmanship. Insane

[@jeremyfenix8078]

10 days. This upgrade was done in 10 days. Most shops can't even come up with a design as fast as this was completed. Friggin amazeballs.!

[@devarskinnee8760]

Two stars are brighter than one!!! We miss Jammie Mr. Single star!. Build is nice but some things missing?

[@AnswermanAnswerman]

Known problem with PDM internal relay, overheats and fails or burns output! Easy to bypass with external relay as PCM signal is hard wired to PDM! Recalled on GC when last body was released. Can cause intermittent no starts as well!

[@davidbartlett5604]

Chris comes thru again!!!!!

[@1a1u0g9t4s2u]

Wow, the three of you are seriously pushing the limits on what can be done with a Jeep JL while still maintaining the majority of the body and cabin as stock. Wonder if Jeep will have an interest with the stock roll cage to make any structural changes as Lite Brite put it through a life time of flexing and stress test in just a few years. Thanks for sharing.

[@Chief6945]

Hay Soose!!! Chris is awesome and so valuable to the channel and what you all need!!! congrats!

[@XxggxX8]

Teamwork makes the dream work .

[@cwillis189]

So glad I found another Jeeper with the awesome Hair Frizz!!!!!! Frizz Life!!!!!!!!!!! Rock that Puff Brother!

[@joereyes7749]

Chris is next level. This is might favorite build video in the lineup. Those brakes lines 💧

[@jaredgreen502]

WOW😳 Incredible job fitting everything, Chris! Love that you went all out with this build, Kevin & Britney!!!

[@joshbuck5877]

Wow amazing lol im impressed those shocks make kev look real small 🤣🤣 the articulation is yes insane 👏 🙌

[@psychology2217]

Amazing!! Just Amazing!!! I can’t wait to see it in action off road! I’m sure you’ll put it to the test better than anyone else!! Way to go everyone!!

[@rickaccurso]

I want to thank y'all for staying over on Friday at the Smokey Mt. Jeep Invasion, it was great to meet and talk to y'all for a few minutes. It was hot and y'all still took the time to take a picture with me. To see the Step Child in person was just awesome. Y'all can ask my wife and friends I went there with, I just wanted to meet y'all and your Jeep and glad I made it just before you left. Again thank you and Chris you did a awesome job on the Step Child.

[@richardfleming9243]

Chris well done job. Now we need to see it on a trail.

[@Jjhdezjr28]

S.o.b. that suspension came out freaking bad a.s!! The wait was well worth it indeed. Great job guys you'll killed it.

[@gregcooper2739]

That Jeep is INSANE!!! Great build! Can’t wait to see it running wild of the trails! Love you guys, your show always brings a smile!!

[@charlesjohnson2464]

Master builder THE KING CHRIS

[@chrisjeep777]

That is one amazing creation you have built! She is a monster and a beauty!

[@pullingtaffyproductions8148]

Hey Chris Kevin might be vertical changed but he definitely a badass 😂 love ya all.....😊

[@goffroad8979]

Look at the GenRight steering setup, they seem solved those issues. Also they run 3.0 IBP coilovers.

[@MegaPusheen23]

Sounds like a monster truck! Wow!

[@vincentpoole7588]

L/B. Suspension setups sensational ! ! A front axle pinion angle on 'Stepchild' looks to be creating the darting style behaviour which results in the front propeller shaft requiring double cardon joints to correct this behaviour ? V.

[@davidcantrell6727]

SO glad to see Step Child back. I started watching your channel with Step Child. Seems like having a member of the family back, and she is looking bad ass! Love you guys and your big hearts. Keep living the dream

[@MrChip1217]

Outstanding!!!

[@sherylryan7038]

Chris is a first class fabricator top shelf and incredibly versatile and adownright nice guy you guys must thank your lucky stars they day you met him wow

[@Chetta64]

Chris always rocks his builds. To be so young he has the old school work ethic and it’s a rare gift now days even code the guys that are passionate about what they do. Very much enjoy his work.

[@brians5791]

Two guys in a shop that know what they’re talking about. Great entertainment. Thank you.

[@cesarquintanilla1264]

Wow that is so awesome. Great job Chris and now to see it on the rocks. Take care God bless . Great job all.

[@Flakzacket]

I was so excited to see the step child back on its wheels! I feel emotionally involved in it at this point lol. Can’t wait to see it off road and hopefully you get the steering issue figured out.

[@muffman8469]

great job chris and everyone involved lite brite crazy build

[@bluethunder1703]

I love how it sounds like a corvette

[@bluethunder1703]

To be fair it did come of out of one

[@Grunttamer]

I love the thumbnail where the guy is trusting his life to a clapped out forklift and a jeep. I hope he lived a life without regrets lol

[@vertstang123]

Both of my Jeeps also say push clutch to start and they're both auto's, a 2018 JL and a 2023 Gladiator

[@jbcoker]

Can't wait to see it on the trail.

[@OneEyeCustoms]

Time for them double D 42’s!!

[@trjnsd6874]

StepChild is the most amazing Jeep ever! And yet, y'all find ways to make her better for your wants and needs. Wouldn't it have been wonderful to have been able to keep a copy of each iteration of StepChild?! Craziness in the PlayPen! Those shocks must have cost a fortune - I think I paid under $400 for all four of my Bilstein 5100's! LIteBriteNationAsGoodAsItGets!

[@tylerbuhite5432]

Whats up with lance armstrong rolling up outside the door lol. Gold as always you cool cats.

[@kennethtomlinson9617]

Don't forget to add a holder for a step stool for Kevin.....lol

[@lunch_meats8738]

Are the U joints in the front and rear driveshafts going to be able to phase properly with a cardan joint on one side and a single U joint on the other? I am curious because I had thought U joints needed to be in pairs to cancel out their non continuous movement. It seems that the pinion angle is staying close to the angle of the driveshaft, though, and if that lone U joint is fairly straight it wouldn't matter as much. Someone please advise I am very curious

[@willnolte5227]

Was so much better seeing it in person and hangin out with y’all in gsmji.

[@paulmartin769]

That thing is sick!!

[@jruelas1901]

Sick ass suspension build, how I would of loved to be a part of that with y’all.

[@jimherron5540]

Well Done Y’all, get to finishing the small adjustments, and get those new tires on. Can’t wait to see it in action again.

[@RobertKohut]

A build to match your skills!!

[@stormw777]

Wow! Can you guys do this to my Jeep now please?

[@Minnesota_Vance]

Wow! Looks awesome. The shocks are HUGE! What a stance now. I can't wait to see Kevin krawling now.

[@bullittdog4352]

One of my favorite videos to date..the stepchild is now the prettiest thing on Lite Brite..sorry Brittney . I’m thinking Chris needs a vacation..he looked and sounded a little punch drunk ..I’m thinking he’s exhausted from this thrash!

[@LiteBrite]

He got one at GSMJI, don’t worry! 🥰

[@martyaltman4214]

And don't break it I want to see it at smokie mountain jeep invasion next year. Just couldn't do this year but did do silver lake jeep invasion.

[@neilkirkes]

Yes sir! Great job Chris! Gotta love those late nights before a ride. Can’t wait to see it in action. Kevin, you just jinxed yourself in the outro.

[@raacore]

I was missing the Demon Child for weeks. Not anymore! Such an over the top build, with a wizard named Chris casting every fab & engineer spell possible, at the all new V3KOH build!! Well played, and Goodness..

[@TonyDMan67]

Freaking awesome/amazing! The knowledge that went into this project is S.I.C.K!

[@jacobboughton506]

Should of thrown it on the MetalCloak flex lift while at the invasion, would of loved to see how your looking.

[@StormbornJKU]

Jesus Christ that’s truly insane. The off-road videos of this beast are going to be out of this world.

[@robertragsdale6955]

Xcellent job with the craft. Disconnect the front sway bar and test drive. The at rest angle could have some effect on it. Level arm and 90 at the link seems to works best. The push and pull needs to be equal distribution. The mixed angles could cause diffent forces to each side effecting the steering.

[@torreyporter2837]

13:36 After it was all said and done what was the actual break over height of the frame.... (Measurement from the ground to the bottom of the frame, in the center of the wheelbase) Starting the build to switch to 40s and wanting to know what to set the frame ride height at..... Thanks

[@utha5034]

That was awesome. All those jeep changes are so pretty too!

[@Lionshead0810]

SERIOUSLY CONGRATULATIONS!! Tell Chris amazing work as always! I think this was the first video that Kevin was in the shop and Chris didnt say get out :D The sound of Hemi is NUTS i want one so bad.

[@ronaldspins]

@ 29:00 is that your RAMP TRAVEL INDEX / RTI or are you happy to see me ??? Incredible Rig

[@joeym2675]

Awesome Job Chris!!! The Stepchild Is SO BAD ASS NOW!! DAMN!!!🔥🔥🔥 Now It’s Time For Some 44s!!!! When you crank it on the trailer I swear it almost made my Bluetooth speaker fall off the mount! 😂 I’ve always loved that Jeep But OMG now I’m REALLY IN LOVE WITH IT!!! And it has two balls now so that bothers my manhood! Gotta go find the Wifey and get this straightened out! 😂🫶

[@loganrichardson5385]

My only thought with the hard brake lines on the upper control arm in the rear is its going to make servicing/rebuilding those rock crawler joints a complete PITA

[@LiteBrite]

Ya you might be right. May need to turn those into soft lines

[@edwardsimmons3721]

So much work. Great stance.

[@jamieodom7081]

Damn guys, ADS Shocks fire, Chris darn good work. Lite Brite Nation killing it!

[@user-tg6pb6ws8d]

Chris is insanely talented and meticulous. Nice job! . Freaking awesome/amazing! The knowledge that went into this project is S.I.C.K!.

[@tomhendricksen1805]

It sounds like you might need to add a chain step to help get into the Jeep.

[@MichaelBrown-um8qc]

Please don't paint inside front fenders . Looks so munch cooler rt now 🥂🏁 Chris your the Boss Man 🥂🏁🏁 Great work 🏁🏁

[@RobertKohut]

Hey!!! There is a mouse nest on your head!!!??? LOL 🙂

[@daughertypb3663]

Chris is insanely talented and meticulous. Nice job! 😎👍

[@MrDrewgle]

That's insane! Spider crawl everything. Can't wait tobsee it on the trail!!!

[@LDG91YT]

Step Child 3.0 is sounding amazing! You guys have great taste. Love the videos!

[@Rusty.1776]

Lookin damn good! 👍👍 Keep an eye on the rear soft brake lines, they are going to work themselves loose being mounted like that.

[@lesfillin]

Which vehicle has the wider track width as measured from the outside of the tires (Stepchild or Plan B)?

[@LiteBrite]

We haven’t measured side by side, but Stepchild is probably wider

[@LOVE-62]

Chris you are like a Fabrication Yoda. Dude such a great build my man. That articulation is ridiculous.🙌🏻

[@user-rf1vn6se5q]

I think it needs to be about 3" lower. Also, the front swaybar needs to be closer to parallel to be more effective...Looks great!!!

[@joshuawhittred-eo6kn]

Absolutely insane. Love it. 👍🤯

[@rockercover]

Ran JE-Reel drive shafts. They have been in biz. for years.

[@daletaylorjr.4786]

V3.69.....lololol Please get a small sticker saying that for the Stepchild!

[@shawncharles3765]

I got to see it at the Jeep Invasion which looked sick but to see the flex test, that’s crazy!!

[@gregdzuranin1720]

Glad I got to see this beast at Smokey Mountain Jeep Invasion!! The brake lines in the rear are beautiful. Was the emergency brake cable ran just as nice? I need Chris to come clean mine up!

[@themagician7734]

Interesting to see the flex in comparison to Broncos. Stock Bronco Badlands (on 35s) is only about 18" before the rear wheel leaves the ground, Raptor at ~25" (on 37s), APG Prorunner Bronco ~32" (on 40s).

[@fredbrandl880]

Absolutely insane build. Now all you have to do Kev is to get Chris to build you a pair of mechanical elevator shoes so you can get into that thing without pulling your groin apart.

[@LonnieHutchinson90]

Damn that’s insane!!!!

[@marcfox622]

Honest question, when you flip that switch and open up the exhaust to where it sounds like a race car are you truly getting more horsepower or is it just a lot more noise? Maybe put it on a chassis dyno and see. So far all it seems is that it sounds like a super race car when your sitting in the driveway revving it. If it doesn't really add real horsepower I wouldn't really like the system because it adds complication to the exhaust and more stuff to go wrong. I prefer a cleaner system. Maybe your trying to keep up with the Ford Bronco??

[@MrDrewgle]

Chris is a beast!

[@aaronnicholas5477]

Great video guys! Awesome job on the build! Just curious what paint did you use? Just a normal rattle can of Rustoleum?

[@tomguertin7713]

This channel is great BUT it would be nothing without Chris. He is truly Amazing. Congrats Chris…
