Those holes into an LJ hurt my soul
Over time I've noticed you guys using spray paint/bedliner on a good bit of your upgrades. Y'all should try a product called steel-it. It's pricey, but it's supposed to be insanely durable and I think your review could help viewers find a great product. My buddy has it on his '68 bronco and I've seen it mentioned through several forums. I believe it bonds as durable as a powdercoat, resists fading, and is obviously one of the easier ways to touch up after hitting the trails.
Speaking of reviews, I don't think I've heard y'all do any long term reviews on your mods. It would be cool to have a video where you review everything at once.
Also that bedliner turned out really nice! I'm impressed with how consistent the texture was.
if the bolts were black it would be my fav but still looks good
Thanks guys!
Should the inner wheel wells go back in?
It was painful watching you drill holes in that LJ. A step bit is the best thing to use. Can’t believe you cut an allen wench with bolt cutters, should use an abrasive cutoff wheel.
Are you going to do the front?
Hey man I know this isn’t relevant to the video but do you know where I can find those tail gate hinge covers for a Jeep tj
Looks great guys! I am surprised with all the crazy laws in your state that the fenders done have to cover the tires. In the Live Free or Die state if New Hampshire we do, definitely kills the looks.
FYI…Inserts are call RIVNUT
So you sprayed Raptor over raw aluminum? No sanding, No etching primer? In time that's going to flake & peel off. It's a 2K product thus you treat it no differently than if you were painting a regular car panel thus sanding & etching primer. That's what bonds the paint and in your case, bedliner unto the panel. Think of it this way…hot summer days that panel is subject to thermal expansion & contrasts when cooled just like we all learned in grade school. So if that surface wasn't prepped via sanding or etching primer you have nothing bonding it to aforementioned surface once it starts to expand/contrast. Ask any auto body guy, they'll tell you. It's ALL in the prep. We did my buddy's bumpers & used a total of 12 cans & we still could've used at least another 2-3 so I don't know how you did all that with 4 cans. That's probably enough coverage for a single thin coat. You're already eating through it once you tightened the bolts down. See how it twisted along with the bolt. That just shows it wasn't prepped nor use enough product.
Looks great! You made it look easy. Thanks for sharing the Allen wrench hack.
It looks great. I just wish that you couldn't see all those bolts.
Suggest on your drilling. Use a step bit. Works alot better less vibration, less chance of body damage. Step bit is the way to go on bigger holes.
Hello from snowy Spokane WA.
Love this look!
