THANKS FOR 100K SUBS

[@nicholasviney5975]

Congrats on the 100k guys and Mr Hewes deserves an extra pat on the back for helping out the less fortunate and mentally challenged, I hope Jack appreciates it.

[@VictoryWorks]

There is something so pure and wholesome about these videos in these days of narcissistic influencers and mindless trends, you guys and girls totally deserve the 100k and many more

[@djdan890]

That’s because they are Englands best this is what we have to offer down to earth mechs I wish them all the best and im going to keep watching with out my ad blocker on to boost there channel

[@rhydtuned]

Agree on the safety concerns with that Jeep, a child seat for Jack is a must

[@akula9713]

Don’t forget Fitter Matt, who brought a lot of us to your channel.

[@MrRicharse]

I'm here because of Matt.

[@PeteCourtier]

@@MrRicharseMe too.

[@John-The-Farmer]

What happened to Fitter Matt? not seen him in a video for a long time.

[@MrHewes]

Fitter mat should be helping but he’s busy in Scotland still 🥲

[@johnnunn8688]

Who? 😂😂

[@Oliverdobbins]

Can’t believe you had to Aquablast that entire rear deck by yourself. Shocking. Also, I’ve spotted something on that Jeep. You might not notice them, but there are a couple of dots of corrosion beginning to peek through the paintwork here and there.

[@jakedevries1455]

So glad you got over 100,000 subscribers, you deserve it because this is an awesome channel and I can't stop watching. Thanks again guys!

[@pob8225]

Tony's CJ5, fond memories. Weavers down boxing day trial circa 1988.....

[@HellSoldier1]

Congratulations on most deserved 100K subs from an old vet from Norway

[@johnnunn8688]

Ted is looking well, you reckon?

[@britannia-foundry]

Congratulations on the 100k, nothing better than people having fun doing what they love.

[@marcuswardle3180]

I used to work for a company that made industrial fans ranging from fans for use in tanks, industrial, nuclear and even for organ blowing (the church variety). We used to have a machine that you bolted the fan onto and then spun it up to its operating speed. A display screen would then tell you where and how much to put onto the fan in order to dynamically balance it. It could also tell you if the weight had to be put onto back plate or the fan cover plate!

[@tinymonster9762]

Thoroughly deserved. I’m glad Jack opted for the ceramic coating on his jeep, it really makes a difference on the school run…

[@BrumKid]

Glad to see you got the Aquablaster it was money well spent 👍 even cowboys know a good thing when they see it. Now get that T34-85 working i want to see it on August 6th on my 21st birthday 😉. Take care guys and keep up the good work.

[@ekspatriat]

Did they buy it or have they 'still got' it as I heard? Hope they have bought it as it must save hours and hours.

[@Eisen_Jaeger]

@@ekspatriat I'm guessing a lend-lease prior to possible purchase

[@michawillems1735]

Massive congrats on one of the most deserved 100K subs on yt!

[@brexxes]

FINALY able to understand what you are saying, about time for the mic upgrade! Edit: Also the professional placement of the audio equipment is just superb

[@robwigglezz944]

Thank you for awesome original content.

[@tonywoodford9164]

I miss fitter Matt but still awesome channel. Its the attitude that makes it

[@multilinkacs]

Wow, love the drive, dont see many V5 engines !!

[@colderwar]

My long lost mate had one of those Jeeps, he never stopped banging on about how it was so much better than my Lightweight. He once farted in bed so terribly that the smell actually made his missis throw up, but I don't know if that was caused by Jeep ownership or him liking his ale a bit too much. Balancing - get a shaft turned up that's a nice running fit in the splines of the flywheel and balance it all between two trestles, resting on knife edges. You can add four small-ish bearings to the knife edge arrangement to make sure it's spinning freely. Then just level the whole lot, spin it and mark the low spot. You know the score after that I'm sure.

[@pottel7047]

Maybe you could take the fan to a tire shop,i used to work in one and i think that you could fit the fan on a device for balancing truck wheels. Might be worth a shot

[@ewanstewart8011]

The poor Fastrack 🔥rip, eleven months later and over another 140k subs wow, but to be fair it is a superb channel, mainly for the lack of BS and you guys being so down to earth 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🏻

[@renderinglegend5346]

Mic bit gave me a chuckle

[@GlennJEvans6567]

Hi guys and all, I keep finding your videos past and present and your a joy to watch and please pat Ted for me such a lovely boy, keep the videos coming , such fantastic viewing 👍😎⭐️

[@frankboff8185]

Excellent video, Jack looked well pleased with the jeep.

[@MrHewes]

He loves that thing

[@jessen00001]

Congratulations 🎉 That AQUABLASTER 🎉

[@alanknoll5540]

That is awesome. You got the old jeep running.

[@888johnmac]

100k Subs & real companies who want to work with them .. man this channel is going places .. good on you guys & girls

[@neuvosto]

In this age of fakeness people enjoy honest content like this.

[@ProducerCliff]

I had a CJ6 once, I restored it and it immediately threw a piston through the side of the block. I was in Germany at the time and stuck it in a friends barn. I looked at many different replacement engine options and then decided to get the block repaired. Now in the past I had a bad habit of abandoning vehicles, and I guess the CJ6 is still out there somewhere Germany. I did a similar thing about 30 odd years ago with an Austin Champ - Rolls Royce engine and went just as fast in reverse as forwards (I think they developed it for the Italian Army) . I bought a restored Champ up near Doncaster, decided to leave my car somewhere up there and drive the Champ back overnight to Cambridge. Not far down the road the clutch gave up and I managed to get it to a well known ex military vehicle dealer, then spent the night hitch hiking back to get my car (actually got to spend the night sleeping in a paper mill and playing Snooker with the workers!). I abandoned the Champ too as I had to go off to some country to do filming (I'm ex BBC TV Producer) It may still be up there in Yorkshire, I never went back. I also had a Steyer Puch Haflinger - no idea where that is. Technically I owned half of a series one-and-a half flat floor E-Type but I did abandon that to my dear friend Dave who owned the other half! I converted one of my Range Rovers to Diesel, it was a terrible conversion, cost me a fortune, but I don't think I was ever able to sell it, so where is it?? There are more, but I honestly can't remember them.

[@vickershaft]

Love the videos, it would be cool to get to know the rest of the team as well.

[@markstott6689]

Another fun day in the yard. I think Jack needs more camera training. Although his blatant disregard is amusing. 😅 100k is a great milestone for you and everyone connected to the channel. Nicely done and earned. ❤😊❤😊

[@L5GUK]

It's amazing how your audio sounds exactly like it's coming through those microphones ;)

[@sparkplug0000]

To answer her question, many vehicles, especially short wheelbase jeeps, have a hitch on the front. It makes putting a trailer in a tight spot a breeze, particularly for us old geezers who can’t turn their necks like we used to. You certainly can’t go down the road of course, but I use mine all the time putting boats in the lake on a tight ramp.

[@michaelwalton3941]

Hi Joe we you need a big Lathe in an engineering machine shop; you need the kind of setup they use for balancing industrial fans.

[@itsverygreen532]

I'd love to see a "sympathetic" restoration done on that Jeep ... cracking little runaround if sorted out ... doesnt want to be shiny, but needs some love thats for sure. Congrats on the 100k subscribers, always loved this stuff. Mate of mine up in Blidworth had an Alvis Stalwart a and a tank recovery vehicle, always liked this stuff.

[@samleigh7817]

A bit quieter than the needle gun. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉on the 100 thousand followers

[@farenheit1100]

You have a unique skill that is to be admired. Your problem-solving skills are not available to everyone. That is what you should be proud to have. I enjoy when you show Ted. He reminds me of dogs that I have had over my life Please show more of him.

[@Qspecialman]

Another great video Joe, congratulations on the 100k subscribers. In the 1970's I was involved with organising the International Air Fair at Biggin Hill in Kent. The local Jeep agent offered us the use of a new CJ 5 for ten days (for publicity purposes). So naturally that was my daily transport for the Air Show. What a thing that was. She would do 100 mph on the road, as long as it was straight and bumpless. Any slight bump and she would sponge and wollow across all over the place. Exciting!

[@gowithbazza]

I think that sand blaster dose a wicked job of bringing it back to metal

[@d15roy]

Friend of mine had a new Jeep CJ5 just like that one way back in 1976. Great for 4x4ing! Hope Jack polishes it up a bit🙂

[@moles208]

The best thing about that Jeep is the All wheel drive club badge on the front grill

[@brianwillson9567]

Congratulations. ‘Tonka toys’ skill, hard work, improvision and problem solving all with a touch of humour. What’s not to like. Roll on quarter million.

[@slipthegreyhound]

Congratulations!! 👏🏻🎉👍

[@lauriepocock3066]

Great show . Many years ago whilst serving my apprenticeship as a toolmaker I was given a job to fettle some welding. Close to our toolroom was an auto engineering company, run by an old gent who raced cars at Brooklands and he was a wizard restoring old castings. In this particular instance, the oil shield on a very old motorcycle had broken and Charlie had welded back and forth almost like continuously casting an area 5 inches square and no more than 3/8'' thick and curved. My job was to smooth the welding out and polish it. By the time we finished the repair was almost invisible. He would have sorted your sump out for you.

[@kreemkrackered3755]

That jeep looks sooo much fun!

[@wideyxyz2271]

Good news on the engine front I feel a plan coming together.

[@nfisheremti]

woot! i think that was me. i was watching the other day saw you had 99.9k subs. so i hit the button and the bell. when i watched the next video, i saw you were at 100k. congrats to you, and a self pat on the back for making my 0.001% contribution :D

[@donaldneill4419]

When the licence plate becomes a load-bearing member, you've got a real gem on your hands! I owned a Jeep for 18 years and drove it until it was in worse shape than that one.

[@russelldelamotte6255]

love your blog lots of good fun , nice to see these tank and other things up and running again thanks all

[@vickyking3408]

you make it look so easy and straight forward

[@brianjackson-b7m]

Love the work you do and your knowledge of the vehicles and everything would love to be working in that field and the country your in

[@philleeson7835]

Jacks Grandad had some great times in that jeep.

[@BilberryStu]

Congrats guys, absolutely well deserved and on to the next 100k.

[@NUTTER8291]

CONGRATULATIONS THE 10K GUYS .. YOU CLEARLY DESERVE IT !!!

[@theafro]

You can balance that fan/flywheel yourself fairly easily. you'll need to find or make something that'll fit inside those splines that you can pass a smallish shaft through, and the just set it up on a couple of rails so that it can roll freely, then use that to find the heavy spot. a spirit-level will get you close enough, and you can always double-check by flipping the fan around and trying it the other way, as long as the rails are sturdy enough not to flex too much and are actually parallel, you'll be able to get it pretty well balanced. a quick look at how grinding wheels and plane props are balanced should give you the general idea, it doesn't need to be complicated. Congrats on the 100k, it's well deserved.

[@ianb6595]

You and the team deserve all the credit you get on saying that let’s get to 200k! The jeep is class

[@jamesocker5235]

New mics are the bomb, was the crank knackerd on the t34 engine…? If so could we see some journals?

[@BrianSmith-ow9gy]

Glad you like the little magnetic pots. Thought you needed somewhere to keep your nuts. :)

[@TAV_Valentin]

Congrats for your channel archive.

[@led5762]

Congrats guys and gals keep up the great work.

[@Bill-Phuk]

Congratulations dude!

[@juststeve5542]

The 4,5,6 cylinder Jeep looks like a hoot! Fun way to celebrate 100,000. Congrats!

[@ThePipingSculptor]

Congrats on the subs👍 this brings back some memories! My first car at 17 (many years ago) was a 4.2l CJ7 😊

[@kippamip]

Great little jeep.

[@davidhill7914]

Hi, looking in from North Yorkshire, England. Thanks for your most informative video.

[@MrRicharse]

Congratulations. Always keep a eye for updates . Love the banter.

[@mercedesw126garage]

Congratulations with the 100k.Enjoying your videos.I still have a long way to go...

[@christaylor6617]

Congratulations on getting plenty of us, enjoying your crazy antics ❤

[@MostlyInteresting]

Bubble balance the fan like old school wheel balancing. Hang it with a cone shaped device keeping the rope centered. That can also let you see if its warped or out of round it you rotate it slowly.

[@bengreen2329]

put the fan on a shaft, rest the shaft on some bearings and spin it to balance it. same as how you balance a motorbike wheel, only bigger haha

[@sarcastrxphe786]

The new mic quality is just👌🏼

[@Calamity_Jack]

Mint?

[@johnhopkins6658]

Those straight 6 Jeep motors are 'bullet-proof.'. Had A CJ5 in the 80s. Bought it for $2,000, ran it for 2 years. Took it from Toronto to the Grand Canyon and sold it for what I gave for it. If soft motor mounts poke a hole in the oil filter, the filter for a 60s Buick (i think) will fit. As long as the thread and 'O' rings are the same it works. Truck transmission, on the flat mine would pull away in 2nd gear.

[@kerrykrishna]

Yaaaa! New mics! Just like that guy asked! Good audio is a terrific thing for a Chanel like yours to be known for. Congrats! And I am subscribed!

[@nilo70]

When I was a kid ALL the starters were on the floor for trucks Etc. On cars there was a push button on the dash to start (After the key was turned) people today think a push button to start the car is NEW ! But it was the norm a long time ago. Cheers from California 😎

[@NAWPS]

Watching you do some serious wrenching on Tanks is very cool..thanks mate ,keep it up.

[@melodiclodgings8]

British humour, tanks, vehicles, and other shenanigans on this channel I couldn't ask for more, keep it up you are doing very well for yourself plus its fun

[@krisgoodson1007]

Bob had so many treasures diamond tee sdederson accerson f7 8wheeler volvo f12 6 x2 unit it was said he had Indian tank shift motorcycle what a charictor rip bob gent. 😊

[@raytheron]

Congrats, you deserve the 100K and much more! Great videos from a smashing crew!

[@MrSeeuu]

Another great video!!! I loved the Jeep ride!!!! When I was a kid, my older cousin lived on a dairy farm in Minnesota, (and yes I shoveled shi#). He had an old Corvair chassis cobbled together with a roll cage welded to it. He would scare the crap outta me driving me around at hellacious speeds with my brother in the passenger seat and me behind him hanging on to the bits. Your antics brought me all the way back to 1967!!!LOL Congrats on the 100k. I send your videos to all my friends with similar interests. They have ALL said to me how fun and unique your channel is and they enjoy your dry sarcasm as much as I do. Also, I can’t wait to see the new T-55 engine and all of your future challenges yet to be solved. Again, much thanks for all.

[@MrHewes]

😅 cheers Bud means a lot!

[@skeeterbuildsit6016]

100k is a huge milestone!

[@litz13]

All jokes aside, that Jeep has the 6cyl 242 in it. Bulletproof. The only thing probably more bulletproof is the 4.0 that replaced it. Soooooooo much torque and power for that tiny little vehicle.

[@bobuncle8704]

Congratulations On the 100K If you take that clutch are off, you could use an old bubble balancer just to test the basic balance before trying something fancy like. Used to bubble balance tires for years

[@jayeff3196]

Congratulations 😊

[@robertoshaughnessy-bo9hm]

congrats on the 100k well deserved love your channel

Watched many hours of your channel. And I think this is the first time I’ve seen a ratchet used. I feel the adjustable spanner should be mandatory

[@garlandgarrett6332]

CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 on the big 100,000 👏

[@peterlarkin762]

Congrats on the subs! No surprise really, 250k by next year I reckon. And thanks for spreading the knowledge about adjustable hammers. I use it for nearly every job now.... Nuts, screws, grinding, painting, doing the dishes etc.

[@nailseaphil3989]

Amazing piece of kit. Thats got to be so satisfying stripping ang cleaning metal.

[@MrHewes]

Sure is

[@ShevillMathers]

Awesome, entertaining, informative, sometimes hilarious, and above all-non of the hideous noise many call ‘music’, which they destroy their otherwise good video’s with. Greetings from an ex Pom living down under in Tasmania, the best state of Australia. 🛠👍😁🇦🇺

[@Ripper_CQ]

Well deserved team!!! 200K soon!
