We passed you guys on the trail in our beat up Samurai. Really wanted to stop to say hi to the Grind Hard crew but you were too busy filming. I even had my Grind Hard neck gator hahah. You guys gotta come back and do the entire Rubicon Trail not just the first mile or 2, you didn't even see the hard parts :-P

[@carbonshocks]

You all did great! So glad to see you guys tearing it on on our American Made Products! your best! You need anything just reach out and we got you covered!

[@robsmith4651]

Good job. GHPC living up to their rep. Very impressive. That trail looks crazy fun.

Watching this Bronco eat up the Rubicon trail makes us want to build our own Cummins swapped crawler... if we only knew where to a get a quick spooling 12v Cummins with compound turbos! Thanks Ebay Motors for coordinating this epic Mod-a-Thon!

I love the "Great, these fit your vehicle!" notes on the aftermarket parts that absolutely won't fit your '79 Bronco without scratch-built modifications!

The great thing is, there are tons of parts that fit without any modification using our My Garage feature.

[@Blaquer17]

@@ebaymotors absolutely! I use My Garage to keep track of all my jalopies and get the parts I need, knowing they’ll fit. It’s just funny because those 44” tires aren’t fitting a ‘79 bronco without a ton of complementing modifications

That's one sweet rig. I love those old broncos

We passed you guys on the Rubicon trail in a beat Samurai. Wanted to say hi to the Grind Hard guys, but it was such a huge production. Is that as far as you went into the trail? I don't think that counts as doing the Rubicon, it was only a mile, maybe two from the start. They didn't even get to the hard parts. Much of our Samurai was bought on ebay motors. In fact I had to buy new gears on ebay after that trip haha

[@ebaymotors]

The Suzuki Samurai is nostalgic vehicle. What do you have done to yours, besides new gears =)

[@MrSnowlver]

@@ebaymotors Seems like everything haha, much of it I do buy from ebay coincidentally. Lift, tires, axles, disc brakes, bearings, seals, roll cage, new seatbelts, glove box and even new top. You can see it in your footage somewhere I'm sure.

[@ebaymotors]

That’s epic. Definitely remember seeing you on the trail. Your Samurai was awesome! Stoked to hear eBay Motors was a destination for parts when building (repairing 😉) your rig! Hope you are enjoying the series.

[@drago7191997]

I was going to comment the same thing i don’t think it counts as doing the rubicon I was in a group on the Rubicon, the same time they were filming, I was in a grey gladiator with 2 LJ’s and 2 Fj’s and we came across them blocking the trail, dope rig tho

[@matt45540]

I'm not saying the video quality is not great, but the amount of staff to shoot this KZbin video shows just how hard all of our favorite KZbinrs actually work

That is impressive how fast ya'll built the suspension, especially not having all the luxuries of a shop lift or even a level concrete floor. Working on vehicles I know how much work that is and my hat is off to ya'll.

[@ebaymotors]

Right on! Thanks for following along!

[@brockroe5084]

eBay should’ve called this show “Destination Modification”. I’m subscribed to all 3 of their channels so this is an awesome collaboration to watch.

[@ebaymotors]

Awesome to hear! Hope you love all the content!

[@TheOnlyBlackInMeWasWillieBrown]

Everything they did you can do on 33's and a front locker, if your interested in doing the Con you don't need a monster rig. @10:40 mark they went up the easy part, there's a steeper climb behind the cameraman that's more challenging. @11:00 mark, that's the correct line for that obstacle, if you go to the right you'll slam into a massive Boulder. I'm a little disappointed you didn't do Cadillac Hill, I would've love to see your guys reactions to it.

[@ebaymotors]

We're lucky that we got the cast and crew to attempt these courses.

[@MrSnowlver]

We ran into them that day, they only did a tiny bit of the start of trail. None of the hard spots. And we have no front locker, and no one had them backnin 80s when we started running the rubi

Kind of upsetting for them to drag it all the way out to the Rubicon to wheel it then turn around not even 1/4 way into the trail. I was hoping to see them wheel more of the trail, especially when they chose the same rig as mine, my 78 bronco made it alot farther than that on little 35s! You guys could have done the whole trail easy! That bronco is a beast it deserved more camera time on the Rubicon.
