Yesterday was Ange's birthday and we took a Mog day off to celebrate! It's easy to get sucked into a project and not take a break from it - it was exactly what we needed! But we are back at it today and BIG things are coming soon..

[@ajm0723]

Happy Belated Birthday Ange 🎉

[@robertlaundy4176]

Happy Belated BIRTHDAY Ange, think you have ern't a Jim Beam or two, for all your efforts. You both doing a Top Job. Cheers, Rob

[@mattpope1654]

Happy Birthday Ange! Good job on the Mog! Enjoying the series!

[@FAB7362]

Happy birthday Ange. It's my birthday tomorrow and I fart more than Chrissy boy!

[@albertdesalvo7273]

Birthday wishes from England😊. You two make an excellent team, and your hard work is an inspiration to all. Can't wait until your Mog is completed.

[@Hipporider]

Eye protection when you're using those wire wheels, mate. One of those wire fibres in your eye doesn't bear thinking about 🇦🇺😳

[@TheOutFit]

I'll make sure Chris wears his protection glasses next time!

[@Sethjxl]

I can't stand this whole new level of net nanny, where everyone things they have to enforce OH&S standards on every damn video. But god damn do those things ruin your day when they start letting loose. So yeah, I'd wear glasses lol.

[@thebrowns5337]

8:20 @The OutFit, guys, there is a company in the UK that make acoustic blankets for engines. Sits directly on top and hangs down the back generally, allowing cool air to hit the front still, but, shielding the bulkhead from noise. They are called Noisekiller, part of NKGroup. Worth a look even if just for ideas - they have a lot of helpful advice. Cheers.

[@chipandrews2892]

Happy Belated Birthday Ange!! That Car Builders system looks awesome! I will tell you, when I pulled the floor mats out of my US Army CUCV...it had that cotton fiber crap, which retains moisture, and I had to cut out and replace a lot of metal to fix my floor boards. Your project is coming along nicely and looking GOOD! Cheers!

[@mervallan1822]

Have used Ensolex Rubber Sheeting inside cabin of Coal Mine Dump Trucks, found it to be very effective in muffling sound and heat. Cover with carpet looks nice !!

[@lanceroark6386]

2 things: 1: all bed-liners are simply Elastomeric paint and “part B” Hardener. You can save a ton by buying the paint and hardener at a big box store. When I buy mine, I’ll be buying paint from Behr. You can get spray guns like to one from Raptor Liner online too. Also, you can get whatever color you want; the paint can be colored just like any other paint. The price here in the US is like $150 for a gallon and a brand name or $150 for 6 gallons and a self-sourced mix. 2: when you paint the outside, use epoxy paint. It’s another part B hardened paint, and it’s damn near impenetrable. There’s a video by D.I.Y. Auto School here on YT about it. I think it has an old blue Chevy car in the thumbnail. Again, you can get the paint colored to your desire.

[@reddog1ish]

So much work! Call it good and go to the beach. You guys are awesome. Thanks for sharing.

[@hil7160]

Love the build, inspired me to hit bid... picked up my MOG last week and knocked out the majority of the sound deadening already 😅 recommend widening the driver side foot well before you get too far.. just a thought! I took a template from the passenger side marked it out on the drivers side ready to cut and sheet.

[@AN11231]

I did both front , rear and cargo door on my Fj so far. And I can notice the difference straight the way as the back was noisy as hell while the front was quite as hell. I am onto the floor and wheel arc this coming week. Finally I am looking forward to a long distance driving in my Fj

[@Andrew-76]

When you started doing this build I wasn't that keen on it , but you've hooked me in and I'm really enjoying it , your doing a great job can't wait to see the final result.

[@Eu_Overlander]

Following your project here in Brazil. I am building a motorhome using a base 130 defender. I dream of a Unimog but here these cars are very rare and absurdly expensive, only the army has it and when they go up for auction they are more expensive than a new truck. Your service is getting very good. Here I also do everything with my own hands.

[@TheOutFit]

Thanks Eugenio for following along all the way from Brazil 😀 good luck with your project! Hope one day the prices decrease for you - in Australia they are definitely getting more and more expensive :/

[@RBGgermanKX250F]

Good stuff this is really cool! Warning though the dampening mat stuff can add a lot of weight fast and actually doesn't need to be put everywhere. Mostly on larger flat areas where metal can vibrate. Just a trick from performance road cars to save a bit of weight and material :)

[@sp2379]

Happy birthday Ange 🎊, can’t wait to see your plans for the back of the mog!

[@ericchilver9113]

Looking good folks, keen to see next week

[@benstrachan3418]

Thank you for sharing the build. I hope it turns out exactly as you imagined. You are looking good so far. Blood and sweat always make things mean more in the end.

[@davidthornborough3395]

That should make a huge difference, looking great 👍

[@onedayatatime4232]

Great work guys

[@danbartlett9963]

lol that fart was epic and resonated all the way here to America.

[@WayneHewlett1]

You guys have great vision and appear to be enjoying yourselves so much, love watching you videos

[@rjl110919581]

thank you for the detailed video as great watching your rebuild of 4x4 mog

[@pauldunne7518]

Great Job guys. Ange you are worth a Million. I trust you appreciate each other, very rare to find a couple sharing each other's passion! 🎭👍💪

[@urgigrull4013]

You put in some serious work and amount of material, great job ! I am sure it will pay out big time. I won't comment the *winds* ...

[@Andy_M986]

Kia Ora you 2,wow,it's really coming along ,Happy Birthday for yesterday Ange,this is getting real exciting now,looking forward to the next video,stay safe.

[@jayb5825]

Love these videos! Hate waiting a week 😂👍🏼

[@thepracticalman5905]

I used the car builders products in my van...made a huge difference!!

[@clayringler6958]

What a good job you guys are doing, the Unimog is going to be a lot more pleasant to drive when you get finished. Keep up the good work you won't be disappointed.

[@dnick1981]

Great looking truck, great looking couple!

[@Haslop]

Honestly I can't get enough of these videos!!! Please keep them coming you guys are doing such a good job and having fun with it all! Can't wait for the next video

[@robkeith1776]

Hey Ange and Chris. Greetings. You are doing an amazing job on the Mog. I am so looking forward to your next task. Thank you for sharing the restoration.

[@stanyoung9546]

Oh my god you guys are amazing keep up the great work you make amazing content and I’m from New Zealand and you guys are doing so well

[@phillipdean9879]

Wherever you may be let your wind go free! I’m doing an old ute with body deadener at the moment. Not much fun but well worth it! 🍺🍺🍺

[@tritonjackmam5.681]

Seems to be progressing well under body spray under the cab would help too 👍 uv got play in the steering shaft can see it when you you moved the steering wheel theres 4 universal joints done heaps easy to do 👍 keep it up

[@llotglen]

Hi, enjoying the build. Thanks for the content. Must be difficult staying up in the summer heat. Looking forward for the next vid.

[@pauladams4890]

Warning rivnuts are addictive ...

[@victorsimone5445]

Hey guys, not sure if anyone has mentioned it to you already, but I’ll say it anyway in case. Our trucks are sprayed with a foam underneath the cab to minimise heat mainly but also road noise. It’s cheap & effective & goes on thick. Can’t help you with the name of the product, but I know if you ring your nearest Kenworth dealer they should be able to help you with product name & possibly the product itself. It’s a common thing procedure done to trucks now so won’t be hard to find. Good luck either way!

[@robkeith1776]

Happy Birthday Ange.

[@moe_1886]

So exciting guys, you really are doing a brilliant job, you should be able to hear a pin drop inside... (or Chris' behind! 😂🤣) after all your hard work!

[@jemty9564]

Happy birthday Ange, yes you are not alone with the botty burps lol enjoying the sound proofing stage and can't wait to see the results cheers from 2 West Aussies in Saudi

[@escapethesystem5049]

Top job, and happy birthday.

[@goodevins9408]

Just came across your Channel. Really enjoying the content thanks for taking the time to share

[@josephturoczi4759]

Getting there looks good 👍🏻

[@unclemilton815]

Used this product in my Land Rover Defender, made a huge difference.

[@glynndoyle8939]

Awesome, it's looking great.

[@grahames9228]

Making good progress now.

[@JockeSelin]

Rivnuts!!! 😁👍🏻

[@sharvii]

Happy birthday Ange

[@poeyd9624]

I’d be tinting those Windows also , makes a huge difference !

[@justdowntheroad4218]

So glad you put the most awkward kiss ever recorded back in the intro. And happy birthday Ange 🙂

[@levey2]

For any new rust spots please check out POR 15 or preferably KBS coatings, nothing else will stand the test of time. Love your channel .

[@justinwitt4134]

Looking good guy’s! Any thought on window tinting also - this should keep the UV down also.

[@TheOutFit]

As soon as we paint the cab, we'll do it! Thanks Justin :)

[@ajm0723]

Go ceramic tinting by Total Tint in Myaree. Outperforms all other tints in regards to visibility, reduction in sun glare, heat absorption reducing solar heat! 👌👍

[@milesbartlett]

I see you used some of the stage 1 on the inside of the engine hatch. The unimog is a tiltcab isn't it? Have you considered using some of the stage 1 on the underside of the cab, I know some people have done this on the US military LMTV and have had excellent results reducing the engine noise in the cab.

[@TheOutFit]

Yes you are right i's a tiltcab. We unfortunately don't have the facilities to tilt it safely :/

[@TheVeganTravelShow]

Great video you two! We're keen to see how the back turns out so have subbed and will be following along your build journey... We want to upgrade possibly to a unimog someday soon too, have been living in a hiace full time for the past 3 years and really want a large 4x4 van/truck kinda thing. Keep up with the great content! We know building a home on wheels can be super frustrating sometimes lol.

[@naomin671]

Awesome

[@JohnSmith-qj4cf]

Bed liner spray it on inside the cab the use the other stuff you have

[@LowRange4X4Adventures]

Hey Guys awesome job on the build, so keen each week to see what's next

[@andrevw8511]

!!!!! PRAGA V3S !!!!!!!

[@warwicklawrence796]

Your pritty annoing chrissoo your lucky ange puts up with you🤣

[@petermiddo]

Ang, Mrs Middo shares your pain.... although, I lock the electric windows in the up position then fart..... she's a lucky lady, she forgets that from time to time. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jasonomeara3462]

I just watched tiny house tours, you should have a look, they built a house on the back of a bantha military truck, might give some ideas

[@stephaneckhoff5694]

my first comment, u both are a pretty good team. for me it was interessting to see how they build a right hand drive in these mogs. i drove one at the german army . i have seen this lil greasing joint at the end of the engine mostly it is forgotten to greas. do all aussie army mogs have this j break button ? happy belated birthyday from me too. go on like this i like ur channel greetings from germany

[@TheOutFit]

Thanks for watching Stephan! Do you mean the foot exhaust brake? If so, yes they do :)

[@aaad2341]

Hi guys glad your still having fun looking good / as an idea check out Brendon Tait D I Y automatc door on his mog 22-4=2019 video iust food for thought anyhoo cheers

[@westernaustralian4x4advent60]

Looks awesome well done 👍 , how draining is the soundproofing and rustproofing 😂🍻🍻 What seats did you guys opt for ?

[@ayrifek5647]

farting around your partner is the ultimate level in a relationship lol

[@TONYCOOLSFISHING4X4TOURING]

That means true love that's what I told MRS Cools years ago.

[@albertdesalvo7273]

My wife says you're not alone😂.

[@edgrigsby8610]

Ha! Well I feel dumb...I couldn't figure out what kind of tape you used. I sat here thinking " what the heck is THAT? I've never heard of it.". Then it dawned on me to filter your accent. Oh... 'aluminum'. Duh..🙄. Sorry. Lmao 🤣

[@D4NS80]

Nice job. That car builders stuff is good. I was thinking about using it on my 80 series. Was it my audio or yours that was scratchy during that vid?

[@rudeboy8628]

i love how Ange puts some shits on the floor. French accent is coming through strong

[@dominik9041]

Sorry to say the truth. This Material can be used for damping on huge metal sheets. For that you ned only to and a small pice in the middle of the sheet 30 % is enough. Totally fitting the backside of the Cabin makes no sense. On the backside and the roof you need foam. Try to get 50 kg/cubik m weight foam. You ca use youd Material also for Sound insulation on the Front to the engine than you must do a full cover. Very good is to use first a foam or a wool mat an on top your Material as Sandwich. The thickness of the Form should be a division of your highest noise frequenz lambda. Good is also this Sandwich from The outside in the engine . But than you must cover the cutting edges against spray water. And take care or Firefox retardent Materials there

[@chriskilkenny9641]

Harbin jetters do it best They got a silent pack For the Hatz diesel Your welcome

[@andred4891]

Going good guys but wheres cooking with chrussy boi.....🤞

[@punkbloater]

[@alanpartington7244]

[@frankcastle5732]

[@Bobd409]

Forty years of marriage and my wife STILL complains about my farting. Get over it women.
