JK content is my favorite.

[@SoteroMurguia]

This JK would be a fun RC build. Glad we got to see it again.

[@andrewsreviews4748]

Space in any wrangler is a hot commodity. So, I’d like to see an overview of your gear organization and storage and any updates you’d find to be useful

[@Jade-d]

Very nice to see you giving the JK some love, much more interesting than watching others work on your rides.

[@Casey250]

Thx. A lot of the suspension work I can't do myself on the other rigs as they dont fit in the garage and I need to have them back together at the end of the day. Everything takes 10x longer while filming but if I film and epic works on my Jeep we can get something actually finished in a day.

[@Tunaslayer1]

@@Casey250 If you do a rebuild,/refresh on the JK, you will hit 100K No Problem. You have a very good channel, with excellent content..... but, please realize that the normal Jeep enthusiast can not afford to purchase a brand new Gladiator to have Epic tear it apart and put a Demon in it. By the way, I do love the Ginger! Please, do not take this as a negative comment, but as friendly advice from your biggest fan and subscriber!! Best of luck on that 100K!!!

[@johnmcwade222]

I’m happy to you bringing back out the 2008 JKU, we have 2 JKU’s. For the suspension go with Metalcloak Game Changer 4.5” and let that JKU flex more.

[@donlum9128]

Glad to see you still have your 3.8 L JK. Bought my JK Rubicon new on 3/10/2007 has over 460 K miles on it now. It has made a JK repairman out of me. Transfercase is only Rubicon option left on it. It is still running strong. I have managed to Anti-seize the majority of the bolts on it, has prevented a lot of grief.

[@Jeff-wu6wn]

You can use the rotor as a pull hammer to remove the wheel bearing, and its a dust not a heat shield...you should really replace both sides at the same time (wheel bearing hub)

[@justagraytj]

You have two solid JL over landing builds, feel like just go crazy and do more of a rock crawling build with this

[@jeeplimpan795]

The good old JK... i love mine aswell. Its so nice!

[@scottj.7105]

Glad you got the JK up and running again. Looks great! You were right, needed alot of work.

[@davemclean8667]

Gladiator looks so cool in background! Do miss the jk as well, what a combo!

[@tomandhistruck]

I'm so glad you are getting the JK back out there! It seems like it would be the most fun :)

[@offgridrecon]

That bearing was toast! Good build series. 👍🏻

[@explore_off_road]

Nice to see the Jeep back ... i was gonna say, real Jeep for the fact that its what you started with. And its still mainly a Jeep. I really dig that thing ... play with this more and you will get to that hundred thousand. Sorry i wandered away for the Demonator stuff.

[@fwschnaar3179]

As a Jk Owner… Looking forward to this Casey 👍

[@thomashoffmann3212]

I put the Terra speakers in my JL. They do help a little and sound better. Also, after seeing you installed the Kraken System I ordered one and installed it. awesome setup!

[@t.o.f.t.s.]

Sponsors make things possible and haters gunna hate. I enjoy your content and am excitednto see some garage diy stuff again.(even though I have a JL😊)

[@justinfoy7514]

Its about time!!!!

[@jfloydsea]

Moog hubs didn't last long on my JK. Spicer or nothing!!! The ABS sensor cable on Moog was also too short.

[@yetibrown344]

Yeahhhh👏👏👏👏....said it before...wanna see some vids of the JK! Thx Casey

[@Casey250]

Soon! Although we have more problems so stay tuned. It might not make it to Jeepapalooza.

[@bigbrownmab189]

Though it might not need it, are you planning to swap out the other wheel hub as well for peace of mind?

[@andrewsreviews4748]

I traded a JK in for my ecodiesel JL but I am totally down for some JK rebuild content :)

[@spacecowboy2614]

I would love to own that Jeep brother!!!!!

[@jamesmoore1124]

Gr8tops Truk kit!

[@grandeoverland6787]

Well all need some TLC and attention from time to time...especially a trail used Jeep! I'd say do something with this built that is the opposite of what you typically do. Just a whole other direction.

[@paysonunwin7363]

Would've loved to hear that hub at 100km/h

[@matthewanderson6767]

I would replace both sides, like you said, parts are cheap, the other side has the same use….

[@DirtTheory]

So we going wheeling this fall?

[@chuckisbusy]

That Costco floor jack could use a refresh as well lol

[@Casey250]

Ya it's been around a while lol

[@shaneandrews12]

ready for some JK love

[@adamclinkenbeardclinkenbea7741]

Thumbs up for jk content.

[@matthewthiessen474]

This may keep me from selling my JK. Been frustrated with it getting old, but maybe it just needs some elbow grease and paint and she's good.

[@Casey250]

JKs are great. Way more Jeep feeling then the new stuff. I like the basic feeling.

[@matthewthiessen474]

@@Casey250 Agreed. I just have been battling with things piling up on the to do list! Really need to take a couple days off work and knock em out. Live in the rust belt so a lot of it is paint 🙃

[@theawesomejeep3599]

It is wheel barring I have the same this on my 2009 rubicon

[@karmicforce01]

Upgrade to RCV joints.

[@Casey250]

I don't think they are worth the price over chromoly shafts for this application.

[@gmrblx-games2892]

How do you forget about your car.

[@rodgood]

Gee that wheel bearing ass came off easy , maybe a bit of editing .😉 and always use never seize on assembly , when you are in the bush you will thank yourself .

[@Casey250]

Honestly, a few hits with the mallot was all I needed. This is the 4th wheel bearing lol

[@fredericnzeyimana]

Isn’t this jeep that your daughter said it was leaking?! 🤣 good idea to renovate it👍👍

[@Casey250]

Maaaaybe

[@andrewsreviews4748]

😆

[@ironbearjku2233]

Can’t lie I stopped watching once you ditched the JKU as a JKU owner myself I really have zero interest in JL or JT unless their chopped and buggied out. My rig is unfortunately a trailer queen and only occasionally is driven around town now though 😢

[@adidas4275]

The JK got me to subscribe originally… but I unsubscribed when you partnered with the shop that just pushed their own agenda & products vs impartial review & content. Sean too really started to push specific brands without identifying that they were sponsoring or giving him free items …. Just shady marketing I’ll watch the JK series & hope you hear this criticism how it was intended

[@Casey250]

No one pushes products on my channel just fyi. Epic is a heavy Teraflex shop but I used a lot of Metalcloak on my Gladiator. The JL I built a lot of before I even knew Epic. Sponsors allow us to make more content. I have reinvested every dime I've made on KZbin into more content and basically work for free so I can keep making fun videos for everyone out there that enjoys watching.

[@adidas4275]

Thanks for the response but I promise I unsubbed from you and Sean when the shop you guys go to started saying things that weren’t true about competitors to teraflex & you both went along with it (I’m happy to find the time stamps & links if you want) Honestly I like your content & you seem like nice guy & I’ll give it another chance with the JK content … but I know what I watched. I have TF tire carrier & some other stuff. I don’t care about specific brand loyalty just factually accurate info especially from influencers who get free gear …. I think it is important

[@TheStoryTillNow]

Let’s see the time stamps. 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’ve never received a free part from Teraflex. Can’t wait to see these “lies” I’ve gone along with. So dramatic.
