I remember the solid axel swap blazer you did and the shock tuning. That rig was crazy smooth after he rebuilt the valving.

[@randyjohnson3712]

is that anti splatter spray your using when welding??? More great information and cool builds keep them coming.

[@joshjackson9489]

What are you spraying on the axle while you are welding? Love the content, I've watched you from the beginning of your TV career and learned so much dude. Keep putting out Videos, hope to see you on the trail again sometime!

[@BigTireGarage]

Anti Spatter Spray....

[@dogpotter]

I Have been teaching myself to tig weld ...not a lot of luck, you make it look so easy.

[@5thELEMENTmfg]

GOOD VID!! We do CUSTOM Metals & welding videos are AWESOME on any level or type!! WE NEED MORE

[@MyLilMule]

A lot of projects going on in the Big Tire Garage. If you could change anything about the shop, what would you change - besides make it the Bigger Tire Garage.

[@dogpotter]

you are like the energizer bunny! Thanks for sharing , I really enjoy watch you fab up all teh different components

[@richardfreeman4295]

What anti-splatter spray are you using on that 9”? Also, Google says the Jeep duck movement started in Canada. Can you explain it for me? 😅

[@mikes.9755]

Thanks for all the good tips. I’m getting ready to weld up a bunch of brackets from Barnes on a 05 and up Super Duty axel set.

[@AGuysGarage]

Someday he will understand that it is okay to cut another one inch spacer so he don't have to wait for the other one to cool to steal that one hahaha love your videos Man you rock

[@BigTireGarage]

I guess that would be the smarter thing to do...

[@MacsSpecialitiesMotorsports]

Man I love Ian's Fab work!!

[@kellyhines5170]

Can you explain a little about the spraying you are doing and what it may be best used for?

[@AGuysGarage]

I've been watching you not necessarily on KZbin but since you've been around lets say. Love your builds love your Cadence of speech love your knowledge. this will give you a hint, one of my favorite things in the world is a blooper real between you and she that will not be mentioned because it hurts too much. Keep on keeping on brother you'll do just fine. I wanted to do something similar on KZbin for a lot of years I just spent too many years getting paid to chase somebody else's dream and didn't spend enough time devoted to chasing mine. My back's been shot for years and it's real hard to get motivated after a full day and then all the house stuff to go do stuff that you know is going to hurt the ol back worse. anyway, anybody can make an excuse and I guess I've made mine you have a great day and I love your videos

[@eldonhalliburton4766]

Nice save on the lift point 👍

[@simple88wrangler]

Ian what is you are spraying on the axle before you start welding it? Thanks for the entertainment and knowledge. It inspires me to build and plan my Jeep build after I return from my current deployment.

[@RightHandy13]

Love these welding videos

[@garybarnes6137]

What was the spray you were using when welding the Axle?

[@shanewright6958]

Looking good 👍👍

[@therustyshoe8958]

I see you use weld aid anti splatter. Can you explain how to use it and what its good for

[@morganbarber2461]

What is the spray you were putting on the metal before welding it?

[@NoName-ml5yk]

anti splatter spray. you can use Pam as well.

[@nosnerd1967]

Thnks for the content. Al .just east of Ottawa Ontario Canada ❤ eh

[@chris1293]

Was that anti splatter spray used on the bomber axle right before welding? And wouldn’t it have contaminated the welds? Love the videos!

[@BigTireGarage]

Watch the next video

[@ScottPlude]

what was sprayed on the axle center section before welding the brackets??? degreaser?

[@austinstewart8846]

How did the heim joint on the shackle side of the Crawlarado work? Specifically, on road? I have a YJ SPUA that this seems like a very neat idea for some added flex.

[@lynnbell6374]

Hi Ian, Can you explain what happened with powerblock and how everyone left including yourself. And do you still talk with any of the other guys?

[@mikemaquet7434]

Is that anti spatter you're spraying on the axel between welds? I've heard of it, never tried it. Is it worth it?

[@BigTireGarage]

Yep......I use it when the finished product needs to be "perfect" this way any little berries won't stick around the weld and need cleanup before final coating

[@trevorgould4155]

What make is the anti splatter?

[@Skagitrover]

What’s the story with that green Defender in the background?

[@johngrant1337]

good video thanks

[@dogpotter]

I notice you are spraying something as you weld on the axel housing, what is it ? and why?

[@bradywilliams2666]

It's an anti spatter spray. Just helps keep the welding berries from sticking where you not welding.

[@dogpotter]

@@bradywilliams2666 thanks for letting me know. As I read through the other comments. I’m not the only one who was curious 👍

[@mygoogleaccount9990]

I want to know what ever happened to the Raptor Killer? I'm going WAY BACK! I believe it had an engine from a Ford Lightning (gas, not EV)?

[@BigTireGarage]

Next weeks QandA video will have this answer

[@DavidKirkwood7]

Why not truss the bomber axle? I’m working on my jk axles and planning to truss and gusset my front but it’s not the beefy tube housing like yours

[@BigTireGarage]

Doesn't need it...if it was an Ultra 4 car I would truss it...but for a trail rig..the Spidertrax axle is plenty strong

[@deanjohnson2183]

You have been using a rebel welder for a long time. Is that the same one that you had for 10 years.? Have you had to do any maintenance on it?

[@CDeese39]

What kinda anti spatter spray do you use.

[@dinkydotzero]

Teach me harder Ian... lol

[@ja5onl6]

What are your spraying on before welding?

[@BigTireGarage]

Anit Spatter spray....it helps keep the little weld "berries" from sticking to the fab table, and the tubing

[@danielbartell]

What happened to Suburban gorilla

[@Finksta951]

I wonder how much hair gel this man has went through over the years.

[@cumberlandfleetservice6152]

off subject... Black coffee or??

[@BigTireGarage]

Black always
