  • Older recovery of a Jeep XJ that was having running issues. We ran out and grabbed it and took it to the shop for repairs. Next one was a few weeks ago. Rear leaf spring hangers had torn off and needed welded. Was definitely tough welding such thin metal back together on the unibody mounts but we got it back in once piece and they drove it back to town. The following day they brought the jeep in to the shop and we added some gussets so they could continue their wheeling/camping trip without further issues. Thank you everyone for watching and supporting us.

    I hope you realize just how lucky you are. The landscape around there and the sunsets are absolutely stunning. We have some really nice sunsets over Lake Huron from the Canadian side here but the landscape can't even begin to compare. As I said once before, it's so flat here that if you sat on the roof of a barn you'd be able to see London about 70 miles away. Enjoy what you have every day and never take it for granted. Take care and stay safe. Oh, and keep the videos coming. I really look forward to them. Thank you.

    One of my grandkids just graduated high school. He was going on about having to learn the Pythagorean theorem.
    He said, ‘grandpa, when will I ever have to use that!.
    I told him never, until he wanted to build something straight and squared up.
    Then we had a discussion.

    Good trail repair on the shackle mounts. Sometimes it seems like engineers give you just enough material and strength to get you by on light off roading but not enough for more extreme riding over time. Along comes the aftermarket crowd to off upgrades to reinforce those weak areas and the repair shops to reinforce the spots with gussets and brackets to make them bulletproof. The things you do with the winches to move things around and into place totally amaze me.

    I'm a year late, but this vid popped up on my list. (I watch all his videos these days). What I am commenting about it the fact that Rory may be the last guy on Earth, other than me, who uses a stick welder instead of a wire feed. I understand why, but it is just so rare to see anyone doing it the old fashioned way. I love it!

      @@Dodsonmonty I don't know, and it's not great move for Gzr to tell since that makes it harder for Rory to charge more in the future. Just speculating, as that looked like it took the better part of a day and Rory is one of the few guys that can even do that work, if he isn't charging at least 800 the customer is getting a hell of a deal. Even at 800 that would be an amazing deal for an on trail welding repair and honestly should probably be double. Rory is such a nice guy though I bet he isn't charging what he really should be.

    its a catch22 with the rear shackles on the XJs, the 45° shackle angle rides the best, and allows for more axle droop\articulation. but obviously puts more stress on the flimsy stock sheetmetal leaf spring hanger. when the shackle is straight up and down 90° the ride quality, and your braking really suffer.
