WHY WON'T STUFF QUIT BREAKING?!?

That maintenance that you've been avoiding on your vehicle (or trailer) over the course of the past year is bound to catch up to you eventually... especially when you own as many off road vehicles, towing vehicles, race cars, and trailers as we do. And especially when you ride them hard and put them up wet more often than not! But that's exactly what the winter down time is for, to catch up on all of the problems that have been accumulating (both the ones you know about...and the one's you didn't know about). Like our long-neglected gooseneck PJ trailer with a hydraulic dovetail!

Hey Chris, if you use needle nose instead of vise-grips, you can remove that pin a lot easier -(6 month shade tree mechanic and I’ve seen 4 season of West Coast Customs so I’m qualified)

[@LiteBrite]

🤣🤣🤣

[@jeepgreatstories]

OMG the grease slow mo 😂😂😂😂

[@troybilt6752]

The Home Depot is going to eat your lunch lol. Thank you for your time.

[@trjnsd6874]

So much fun, so much cold! First adjustable hammer, patent pending. Non-needle nosed vice grips, patent pending. Improvise, adapt, overcome! The Internet said you can do that - hilarious! Bec smiling but serious, the boys are being silly, seriously. Hey, where the bouncer is would be a great place for another lift..? LiteBriteNationWorkoutTrailer!

[@garyleibitzke4166]

Ahhhh yes, the infamous crescent hammer. 🤣

[@ChainsawFPV]

"steering thingy" Love the tech talk. Lmao

[@donmcneal233]

Hey kids! Yup! Nothing like havin' a great team of skilled people! Chris & knuckle busting genius & Beck? A wonderfully unique asset of her own skills / talents & gaining more per Chris's expert tutelage! Lite Bright's not just entertainment; but a fount of what's good about America! Yup, you guys stay safe & warm out there. America First!

[@Weidjeep]

Love it when putting the wheels back on the Orielly's song starts playing lmao.

[@jjansen987]

Love to see how far this channel has come! Lights make a big difference.

[@chadgau2808]

Chris and Bec Sunday morning video, my fav!

[@StormbornJKU]

Absolutely love shop videos. Can watch hours and hours of it!!!

[@quinnmortensen1415]

Any tool can be the "right tool" with enough force and skill.

[@brian2359]

The bushing lube scene was hilarious!!

[@samwalker3441]

Hey Brit. Way, way, WAY better audio balance. Strong work getting that dialed in as fast as you did. My ears thank you. LOL. I am loving these day in the life vids. Just shows that garage time comes with every toy. No matter how simple or complex.

[@pennypackmtb2542]

Brakes are so important when towing the weight you tow. Along with the bushings that keep the axils aligned! I think you ow your rams a lot for leaking. This is a great heads up to all who tow trailers, that they to need some TLC.

[@garyspoering2463]

Lived up to the name of your channel! LITE BRIGHT!!!!! Nice!

[@madmikecustomrcrockcrawlers]

Not only is Chris a master mechanic but he does shop lights. Great video of the shop today.

[@johnrobinson4741]

Beeping of a slip of a bad word is appreciated. I feel better about my kids watching. Love the show 🙂👍

[@trevin1691]

Hammers is calling Chris n Beck😁That rock bouncer is looking like a winner!

[@LiteBrite]

That thing won’t go over 20mph. Lol It’s a customer vehicle they bought for their kid to play around it

[@LTUSATV]

I look forward to Wednesdays and Sundays for your new videos like I used to look forward to Saturday mornings for cartoons, when I was a kid.

[@pwrofmusic]

Bec is just amazing. I feel dumb looking at Bec. Keep up the good work. Chris is a legend.

[@dob1662]

How is it I find great amusement in you doing the most mundane things, god bless Lite Brite Nation ❤

[@Brood_Master]

Loving the thumbnail. She's saying- "That's not a wrench... This is a wrench"

[@garyspoering2463]

Nice BIG breakfast wrench you get there Beka! (croissant) Why does everything break? Ask my wife that as the crankshaft broke on her Dodge Dakota as she was taking our dog to the animal hospital after the dog was hit by a truck speeding down our gravel road. Dog is fine, one bruised front shoulder and a small cut under her tongue and a blood transfusion since they discovered she has the inherited anti clotting disease. All that and I was out of the area. Maintenance, that's what we're here for, isn't it? All my life, retired at 75. Darn achy-breaky parts, anyway!

[@stanleyfanning5316]

I like the videos of you and Bec doing fab in the shop the best.

[@mazevx2451]

Demanding lifestyle, but it such a nice feeling when things settle and you have time to work your way through the list

[@Gowherejeepsgo]

Love the channel. I wish you guys luck with the storm. I just left flagstaff this morning and it was crazy. Kevin needs a buggy

[@schweglerd]

these vlog style shop videos are awesome.

[@cesarquintanilla1264]

Awesome work you guys. Maintenance is key on all those vehicles. God bless take care.

[@frankmartin806]

Wow those lights make such a difference 👍🏻

[@richsmith3120]

You have to go back to the early 1900s when they made light bulbs that would last forever! The manufacturer realized they can't make money if people don't replace them so they began making them where they would burn out a certain time. Since then manufacturers have been building things with a certain wear out time frame! Today, now they use cheap parts that may may last a year or two! Of course, abuse doesn't help so preventive or periodic maintenance is required! Happy Trails to all of you!

[@RandomParrot]

Never changed a bulb in any vehicles I had until I bought a 2012 gmc Changed the bulbs once a year at least.

[@slickdrumheller]

Not by any means am I an expert Kevin...........but I believe you were talking about a floating caliper not a rotor 🤣🤣

[@LiteBrite]

Definitely was.

[@mikehancho138]

Another great video! Can't wait to see next week's episode about the LJ. Keep them coming!

[@kenbowman1139]

My fav cooooter pin puller tool is snap-on right-angle needle nose pliers. Game changer. :)

[@jimhineman8695]

Love your shop vids! Chris and Beck are the bomb!

[@gungadinn]

Kevin did it. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

[@TheGearTurtle]

My dad built his own gooseneck trailer and it works and it's very old he built that about the early 2000s and it can still tow the wagoneer to the dunes

[@jeffro8373]

Thank goodness the trailer held up until you got home. That would've sucked so bad if Chris accidentally gave Bec a bug bath. Stay warm, have fun in the snow!!❤❤💯🤙

[@DrewToner]

Very nice and steady camera work Bec!! Love the new lighting!

[@mattcopeland7282]

Love it every thing is a hammer. We are all tools!

[@brunnie]

Love LED lighting! I have it in my garage and it is so much brighter. Until next time... Wrench safe.

[@jeeb4x4]

Maintenance is incredibly important! Have experienced driving into a broken coil spring, which was lying in the road...wasn't so good for my car... As you have previously repeated, it is important to tighten the nuts and bolts on the vehicle, and check for faulty components! 😉😉🤘🤘

[@kipwelch5316]

Lol,,, How hard would it be to install some quiet heating units in that Garage / work area.. Need a couch and TV and a Beer fridge too !! Just do it 😁😁 life is short !! Love you guys !

[@douglasmorton6121]

Thanks for the video!!! Stay Safe!!!

[@donashcraft8617]

The edits in this vid are awesome!

[@brucea822]

Becca’s rig is looking wayyyyy more Jeeply now 👍💪😎

[@chrispearce9224]

I ask the same thing at least once a month. "Why won't shit quit breaking?"

[@randybaker9265]

Nice Xttera I want it . I want another xttera so bad . I miss mine it was well off road capable.

[@time4trains]

Beck is awesome.

[@williamutz2843]

Good video that rock Bouncer look fun

[@Bullseye45]

Those lights made a big difference.

[@aaronlatuhihin8983]

It's always.. is.. been.. lite Brite nation..

[@Starman1016Adventures]

I just had a shop built on my property. I purchased those UFO LED lights awesome brightness.

[@3vetman]

Yeah.....FINALLY putting GREASE in your hubs!!!! The end of your problems FOREVER!!!! i told you so........many times on FB.

[@peartreeranch]

Ugh breaking. My steering ways breaking aka death wobble in the gladiator. Yay for psc hydro assist steering upgrade! Yay for credit cards! Should be ready this week.

[@REDNECKCHANNEL]

Hey Kevin, I enjoy watching your channel. I have a car trailer that needed rotors. I did some digging and found out that the manufacturer used rotors from a car. I was able to buy those at the local auto parts...

[@LiteBrite]

Ya unfortunately these are specific to these dually axles

[@REDNECKCHANNEL]

@@LiteBrite Someone should have em. LMK what info you have and I'll look

[@schweglerd]

why did chris count down at 12:22 "3,2,1 owww yeaaaaa there it is"

[@JTjitsu]

Half way through watching this, and I realized; we could be best friends!… and: who is the new person editing?

[@Golden-69]

Would you look at that, just look at it. It's Bec, Chris and Kevin. No P.J. and Brit😁

[@Wheelingoffthewrench]

Calipers float rotors are bad if floating

[@enjoythecampfire]

Good stuff!

[@ronschilreff3414]

I think Chris and Beck should have there own Channel love watching your videos.

[@LiteBrite]

We’re a team. This is their channel as well. It gives us a break and we give them a break so we’re not trying to kill ourselves trying to put out so many videos.

[@cjspencer1998]

How about some Background on you all found your way to the car culture? Doesn’t have to be a full episode, but some background…Obviously lots Of experience prior to Lite Brite.

[@bdo9114]

Snow ?? here in Minnesota 20 plus inches on the ground just got above 16 degrees ,

[@jerryminer7384]

Your trailer brake system looks like Dodge 1 ton and bigger from the late 70’s - early 90’s

[@LiteBrite]

Unfortunately it’s not.

[@JesseePDX]

I have too many vehicles, by choice...definitely always seems like something...even the new 4runner got moisture in the headlamps! cant even have a new car that wont be a PITA

[@johnbennett3906]

Good job. What LED bulbs did you use?

[@daboenterprize8265]

Awesome 😎 🎉🎉🎉

[@Beat98TJ]

Are you building a rockbouncer with a 10 V front axle? Those are only good for like 37s and mild wheeling? #confused

[@merczeph79]

That's what I thought, not much of an axle for a rock bouncer... LOL

[@LiteBrite]

It’s not a rock bouncer. I guy bought it as is and it was broken in many ways. He just wanted it put back together. It’s on propane so it’s slow going. Just a little crawler for his kid. He just liked the way it looked. We call it the pebble bouncer because it’s definitely no rock bouncer

[@stanskaggs4040]

I love Bec. There I said it.

[@williamwilde9867]

There needs to be a maintenance schedule for trailer and truck all this could work to help you with the dot when they inspect the trailer

[@dhrracer]

I doubt they have the truck and trailer properly licensed. I would even question: Does Kevin have a CDL? In this video Kevin is just showing and admitting that he has been illegally operating his trailer and putting not only himself but everybody else on the road at risk.

[@Patrick-co1qm]

What brake bleeder machine are you using????

[@kjmunster]

Although the front end looks strong, it looks really heavy, on Bec's LJ too looks super heavy.....

[@dunnoyolo2238]

If you let Jelly and Peanut butter drive your rigs they won't brake problem solved. I was hauling a Trailer with a commercial Vehicle up a steep grated road and spun out and trailer went sideways off road and hit a rock and dented both rims scraped side of trailer was fun…lol

[@dannythomas6194]

2:56 Don't you mean😆 that clip and that clip hold the whole caliper in?

[@blackhemidog]

Should have at least turned the rotors some.

[@dixiemae5042]

Twentieth from North Dakota 👊🏻💪🏻

[@jime.angulo4151]

actually, cutters are way better for removing cotter pins than needle nose.

[@TwistedOff]

👍

[@dmc9791]

very funny!

[@angushoover8670]

I'm trying to figure out in the thumbnail if Bec is fixing the trailer with that wrench or if she's planning to give Kevin an adjustment!!! Enquiring minds wanna know... BaHaHaHa BaHaHaHa BaHaHaHa BaHaHaHa

[@rockercover]

6:54 😆😆

[@DJ-yp4kc]

I miss Jelly......and don't half ass the Trailer repair

[@richardharvey8939]

Coo video

[@dalehunt1383]

Ran out of bandaids on this one.

[@petermartin3206]

Bec the only sensible one in the workshop not using a angle grinder without a gard It makes me cringe every time I see it on KZbin The gard on my angle grinder covers half the disc on top and comes down the back edge of the disc protecting my fingers It leaves the front of the disc clear for cutting and the bottom for grinding and sanding I had a gard that came down too far for sanding so I cut off a bit so I can do sanding and keep my fingers I bought my first angle grinder over 45 years ago and I still have all my fingers So Bec put the gard back on the grinder and start using it with confidence an show the boys how it is done Peter

[@chuckspencer8875]

a hammer is a tool therefor every tool is a hammer

[@justgus5150]

The answer to your video title. "Kevin " is a oversized kid . Thrashes everything

[@johnmccool7551]

Has anybody paid attention to the house .I’m sure something needs to be changed out .water heater .?????????? Hang in there .

[@LiteBrite]

Oh just wait…there’s a house update video coming…😅😅

[@chillis28]

👍❤️ #Jellynation

[@ShoddyRC]

8:04 does the background look photoshopped in or is it just me?

[@pennsylvaniaboy87]

yeh, buy dexter....

[@TheBikeMechanic]

Hi everyone! Especially LitebriteBEC…..!!!

[@One_Less_Thing]

Answer to the title question: Kevin

[@LiteBrite]

“Use” is probably an even better answer. We put more miles and use to our rigs and equipment in a year than most people do in 5. 😅😅

[@matthoward923]

As a child of the 60s, I didn’t see anything wrong with any of the tools you used.

[@TheGreatestShowman69]

4th🎉

[@awesomearizona-dino]

Ok. The basic design of these suspensions is about a hundred years old, they were fine under stock loads. Under extreme loads they will continue to fail regularly. Simple fact.

[@norcoredneck]

Chris Bro, your choice of tools and patchwork is lowering your quality to Kevin’s skill set. 😂

[@LiteBrite]

If you’ve never used a giant crescent wrench as a hammer, you’re not a true mechanic.

[@trjnsd6874]

First?!

[@drtschker3072]

You know why?! Whenever you decide to stray from OEM you're basically F'ed!!!
