KEEP your Pop-Up Tent PLANTED with these WEIGHTS
Follow along as I show you how I built these weights made from concrete and PVC piping. These weights can be used to secure your pop-up tent from blowing away from high winds during vendor fairs, craft fairs, camping, anything you would use a pop-up tent for outdoors. These weights will keep your pop-up from blowing away like the house in the Wizard of Oz.
The following are descriptions of the supplies and hardware I used to build these weights.
•4" x 10' PVC poop pipe - Qty 1
•4" PVC poop pipe caps - Qty 4
•Door/Drawer/Cabinet handle - Qty 4
•Bolts for all handle holes - #12 or 1/4" by 3" or whatever size fits the handle best - Qty 16
•Nuts for handle bolts - whatever size fits handle bolts - Qty 32 (or 48 to sandwich washer)
•Washers for handle bolts - whatever size fits handle bolts - Qty 16
•1/2" x 12" Eye bolts (mine came with one nut on each eye bolt) - Qty 4
•1/2" Washer - Qty 4
•1/2" Nut (to sandwich washer) - Qty 4
•PVC Cement
•Rope - Use your best judgement, I used 1/2" x 50' several hundred pound rated cut to 12.5' lengths
•50 pound bag Quikrete Fast Setting concrete - Qty 2
•I didn't end up using the carabiner for this project

Then it was placed in the smoker uncovered fat cap down and it stayed in there over night at 200 F. After 7 hours I sprayed it...

      Hey James Bond, I sold the Jeep almost two years ago now, I did however have the lowering links in a long time prior to me making the video and up until when I traded it in. I had no issues with the air bags, really “dippy” bumps like bridge interchanges at highway speeds sometimes bottomed out the rear struts because it being in aero mode, but honestly, no issues came of that.

    Steve, I have put a spiel in your previous post. A HellCat oil pump will give you a 12% oil volume increase. The new Melling 10452HV would give you a 20% increase, the way to go. I would be cutting open your dirty oil filter to check for metal shavings. I gather you are getting the oil examined. If any metal, the engine sadly is doomed. All the best with this.

  • @davidpowell6271
    @davidpowell6271 Před měsícem

    I have just purchased the same vehicle, only 22,000klms on it. From Summit I have ordered a Melling 10452HV oil pump. This gives 20% extra oil volume, essential at idling speed. I will also be using 5w-30 Penrite 10 Tenths racing oil, changing it every 5,000klms. Low oil volume at idle is what kills the lifters. I have researched this thoroughly on the web and my mechanic who is ex Chrysler told me straight out, "the oil pump is the problem". This will not fix it, but I would expect to get a long use out of it. Vehicles used by ambulance and police get the lifter failure around 30,000 miles, due to all the idling. With every day standard drivers, their vehicle may fail atound 80,000 miles, some later and some can go on forever with no probs it seems.

    Hello. So, I have a 2012 Overland. After 3 days of non-use of my Jeep sitting on a slight inclined driveway, the rear of my jeep sits very low. I can barely put my fist in between the wheel well (if that's what you call it) and the tires on the rear. I have checked with watery soap to see if there are any leaks on the rear bags or elbow fittings of my air suspension, but I don't see anything. Do you think maybe the height sensor has anything to do with this low sitting?

    I have the same noise in my 5.7 Hemi. Had it for a few years and always thought it was in the timing cover. A few weeks ago I did some testing because it has become more pronounced. I started killing fuel to each cylinder one at a time by disconnecting the fuel injector for a few seconds. When I killed cylinder 1 the noise was gone indicating either a rod knock or wrist pin. Valve train defects like lifters or cam would continue when this was done. I plan on pulling the pan and inspecting the bearing. If the crank is not scored I will try a new bearing. If not I will pull the motor. Good luck, hope this helps

    What about filling it up with an electric pump that would make a lot more sense and it would go in a lot faster but great video

    I literally cannot get the old motor off. I removed the bolts but it’s completely stuck. Any tips? I even tried popping it off with a separate jack

      It’s likely “rust welded” onto the diff case, more specifically corroded onto the case. Try soaking the mating surfaces with pb blaster and let it penetrate for a bit. If you have a replacement motor already, just smack it with a hammer once you have the 4 long bolts removed.

    Probably a stupid question, but are the spring hats clocked, and how do you clock them? I'm takling this, but went for all new components and taking to a shop to do the springs. Just want to ensure they're put on correctly and I'm not hosed when I go to swap everything.

      I honestly can't remember what the top hat looks like, but I know the shock has a spring perch with a notch so the spring sits correctly. I remembered fastening the top hat down without a struggle and nothing looked out of norm. The same amount of threads where showing once I got the spring set on the replacement shock with the top hat in place before I started tightening the nut down to hold the top hat in place. I imagine if I didn't have the top hat sitting correctly, it wouldn't have looked right. I hope this helps!

      @@iambigsteveo I ended up finding some guidance from the Raptor forum and calling TSW. There is one stud on the hat that is offset further from the other two. That stud should align to the hole in the lower strut mount. Then the other side assembly, the hat will be turned 180 degrees from the other one already assembled.
