[@roverman985]

This is the roughest rock crawling I've ever seen an old original equipment willys ever do. You boys really banging those things down the trail. I grew up in one of those jeeps. My dad and all his brothers had their own willys jeeps. Every chance they could get to go keeping that's where the entire family spent their time. My dads is a 47. It was the first vehicle I ever drove also. I sure miss those days. Best days of my life. Great video and it sure brings back the memories.

The most iconic Jeeps in the world: Bam Bam and Grampa's! Best regards from Brazil!

[@troyscottstevenson]

i could watch these willys bash through the rocks for hours on end!

[@secondcreekworkshop3908]

Amazing something designed and engineered in a month or two 70 years ago is still going strong .

[@IslandAdventures]

Amazing what can be done with no Gov regulations and interference just build it for what it needs to do! all the safety features and other nonsense the government is mandating in vehicles now just kills them! Doubt my JK will last 70 years LOL

This is the real off road video i have ever seen.... i love it

[@AndyMast666]

Great video, love the Willys Jeeps.

[@danielheath5647]

Gota love those old school willys because they got it all started. I had a 1980 CJ7 in my early 20's. Now I have a 02 Tj wrangler it's a working progress!! Lol. It needs some dressing up & a little work. Have done some work to it but. It still stock beside's k5 blazer rim's an fog lite's on bumper. Never have took it extreme wheeling I have had. It offroad a hand full time's with it

These are fun videos!

[@hiddenwatersflyfishing]

18:51 rear locking hubs.. great touch!

[@xmo552]

Yotaoverland How is that made?

[@hiddenwatersflyfishing]

I’m not exactly sure at the moment.

[@GOD719]

Probably like front locking hubs...

[@danielheath5647]

It oldschool lock out hud's there nice 2 have on the trail's

[@nealesmith1873]

@@xmo552 This can be done when you have a full-floating rear axle.

granpa doesn't drive over rocks. he beats them into submission.

[@sonandsanford4963]

@ 5:54 awesome! These videos can be relaxing.

[@theralmikesell2582]

What type and size of tires is the pale green 2a running that makes its appearance towards the end of the video?

[@jpetrowich]

They are 34 x 9.5 x 15 Super Swampers SAM-14

[@wannabejeeper]

That looks to be a really good size for those rigs. Looks like too much fun. I used to have a TJ I built up to be on one tons with 40s and a V8. It was too much... this is what i'm looking to get into now. Light and nimble.

[@jeremy8715]

@@jpetrowich If that's the case, they must be extremely modified (6:45-50).

[@senever1]

supper road for testing and best driving

[@spago555]

Awesome video! Are these stock Jeeps? Why does it seems like they have diff lockers?

[@triblues7065]

Hi, what motor do you have there for that type of terrain? Thank you.

[@oneloveaye]

this is the truck in folks' dream wish to see the reproduced ones again

[@sonandsanford4963]

[@TOMMYBACZ]

Did Gus get a new color?

[@jpetrowich]

TOMMYBACZ that’s not “Gus”. That is “Willy”. Usually that Jeep is sporting 33” BFGs

[@foresterbauer]

did the tie rod break?

[@jpetrowich]

Yes, a tie rod broke on one jeep and a spring hanger broke on the other.

[@andymolaski1821]

What do you have for gears in Bam Bam???

[@jpetrowich]

Final crawl ratio is 107:1

[@rprokopow]

Ever vid i see that beat up one with the gramps plate i hear a pretty bad rod knock. Im guessing hes aware of that and hes gonna wait till it blows haha

[@nealesmith1873]

Keep in mind that that engine has solid valve lifters.

[@robk.4104]

I need a beater to do that .

[@danielheath5647]

[@jonybgoode1]

just saying...that guy drivin grandpa's jeep,just beats that jeep like an escaped convict..he needs to watch the bam bam driver,on how not to be so rough..

[@jpetrowich]

Grandpa’s Jeep does not have the low gearing and ground clearance that BAM BAM has. He has a disadvantage in big rocks but we have seen situations where his low CG gives him the advantage over me.

[@jimmybritt9537]

You guy's made me spill my coffee on this one . Keep em comming .

[@colewebb4643]

boy Bam Bam' s starting to look a little thrashed and Grandpa's jeep well my thoughts are the only thing holding it together are rust spit bondo and Bazooka Joe bubble gum hey never under estimate the power of Bazooka Joe bubble gum well that and duc tape and bailing wire 😂😂😂 😆 C😎😎L

23:10 that guy cracked me up lol

[@LSTSPERU]

those jeep keep with the original engine?

[@leehilton9932]

Very nice. I live about 4 hours east of the hills. Nice to know that there are some truck trails out there. All I found last time i was out there were 4wheeler, side by side and dirt bike trails. Love seein some jeeps still goin strong on the trail

[@Grampas-jeep]

We had even more fun than I remembered. Great vid!

[@danielheath5647]

Thay will shed the mud if you get thim spinning lol

[@jentin99]

Awesome video, so refreshing to see these old Jeeps in their natural habitats. What tires are you running on your MB?

[@jpetrowich]

They are 750-16 military NDTs that I cut them with a hot knife.

[@cb550rider]

I love the grooving on the NDT tires!

[@zacharygarcia4947]

Rusty needs to take some notes

[@ShnitzlHaus]

21:46 who's jeep and how can I contact. for seat info and setup :)

[@jpetrowich]

His KZbin channel is "Jeepevans" You can contact him over there

[@cb550rider]

Mixed emotions I love watching but I don't think I could trail ride a real MB or GPW

[@jpetrowich]

cb550rider I feel the same way. I have three others that are correct and numbers matching. BAM BAM is built from parts of jeeps long gone. No g503 was sacrificed in the build.

[@cb550rider]

I thought that might be the case. I have several parts jeeps I want to build one very similar. I have a cj3a with pto winch and a very early 2a frame will a full float rear axle. Bought it for 200 from a High school kid that had no idea what is was. I want to put a synthetic rope on the pto winch a use it without risking my life and limb everytime.

[@Mickale-Moranis]

BamBam has new shoes!

[@jpetrowich]

Those tires are the same Firestone 750-16 NDTs I normally run, but I added some grooves with a hot knife.
