I love that you got your kids involved in cleaning it out! You have a beautiful family! Great video!!!!!
Theres nothing better than seeing a guy bonding with his family. Memories are being made, good work Daddy
The kids will remember this for years.
I sure hope! ☺️ It’s fun having them enjoy some of this with us! They have their own personal rescue coming along very soon too!
You and your old man have been killing it lately. Thx for all the video’s. I really like this channel
You and Pole Barn Garage are the best in the "worst, rusted out, and messed up" cars category! You guys really can find some "winners!" 👍👍
Low Buck Garage had exactly the same issue with the 258 fuel pump on a late 1960s Cherokee, he found eventually that the pump with the ‘two towers’ flows around 7psi. That pump you purchased will be triple that
Was about to say the same thing. Certainly some factory got the spring wrong in those mechanical fuel pumps.
My first vehicle I bought when I was 18 was a 72 CJ5. 304 V8, 3speed, headers,4 barrel. It had 12" wide tires on 15" wagon wheel rims. It was an absolute beast! Climbed like a goat! But like all Jeeps the body literally rotted off the frame. I had a lot of good times and great memories with that truck.
Entire family is too cute!
Those AMC I6 are immortal.
WHAT A GREAT JEEP ,, WE KNEW YOU COULD BRING IT BACK TO LIFE,, HAVE FUN ALL ,, AND THE KIDS.. CHARLIE IS GETTING BAND UP WHIPPED BY THESE TREES ,DUCK BOY!!! HA!!!! SEE MORE ON THE JEEP,,, MOBIL HOME,, AND THE BLACK BURNT BUICK YA!!!! PEACE AND OUT!!!!!
My goodness I can’t believe how big your kids are getting over the last few years!
Man, between you and Derik this week with VGG, ya'll are killing me. I had a 91 Wrangler years ago before my girls were born and got rid of it soon after my first born. It was, without a doubt, one of the funnest vehicles I've ever owned. Nothing like taking the top and doors off and just taking a ride.
VGG has sold out to the corporations. I don't watch him any more
@@onemannews can't blame the man for taking care of his family. He can't do the same thing over and over but so many times.
@@TheKeymaster316but he's still doing the same thing over and over but just charging for it now. Same lame jokes every couple episodes, childlike behavior that's just excessive..etc etc and some sap up at motortrend decided to milk it so now he'll get his couple years fame, burn out and slow way down like all the rest of the guys that been on it.
@@Boga217hmm funny. I still watch his CZcams and I never paid a dime. I don't understand why you all hate on him. Just don't watch it. Don't hate a guy because he makes a comfortable living. He worked hard for what he has.
@@onemannewsyes ..
cool video, cool father, cool life
Good thing the previous owner installed that passenger hand rail for the wife! Good to see the family enjoying the trail, pretty cool section you have there!!
Sometimes you have to get a pressure regulator and put it in the line between the pump and carb. They are not that expensive. Normally between 3 to 5 pounds are all you need.
Been driving Jeeps for 34 years, my first was a CJ5 from a yard sale on Lake Superior.
👌😂👍Man that was awesome to watch! That jeep is a keeper! You guy’s always having a great time working together! Great to see the whole family having a blast! Something they will never forget!😎👍
I love you pack everyone in and doing some bush busting, that was awesome!
A good vacuum pump comes in real handy for testing vacuum operated stuff. It also keeps you from sucking in mouse poop! LOL!...
What a start to the week - an ol' CJ brought back to life! And you got the Mrs. to ride in it! Cool beans! Now if you get a hand vacuum pumps to check out vacuum advance, you'll be doing alright. 😁👍
Yes. Just seen it today. Your new fuel pump. If it’s a Delphi take it back. Puts out nearly 17 psi. Needs to be 1/2 of that
The Delphi pumps have the wrong spring. Some will pump 30# psi.
Yeah same thing happened with Low Buck Garage and his $2 Jeep
Yep, Delphi fuel pumps are total crap! Waaay too strong springs.
I just saw the 2$ Jeep video like 8 hours ago. LOL
@mikebracey8832 it's for the fuel Injection swap for those who don't want to find a way to make provisions for an electric fuel pump 😂
Love to see you and the family having fun! have been following you for a couple of years, really appreciate your spirit and content … from another Michael in London England (Land Rover and Porsche)
I had a very cool blue 1977 CJ5...loved it.
You should restore that beautiful jeep.
The spider crisis was just what I needed today! Thanks!
Another channel had a new jeep fuel pump that was way over pressure from Napa got a different one and worked fine
You guys are quite amazing. Brilliant skills on show)))
The noise your hearing is not the throughout bearing, it is the transmission making the noise while in neutral with the clutch out. The throughout bearing is not engaged with the clutch out, only when you push on the clutch in is the throughout bearing engaged, if the throughout bearing was engaged at all times it would wear out very quickly. You can use a fuel pressure regulator to keep the newer fuel pump from flooding the carburetor.
I had an old CJ5 I rebuilt to pristine condition. It was a really fun car. I sold it easily for top dollar. Kind wish I would have kept it. That and my Volkswagen bus camper van were my favorite cars.
Parenting done right! Great video as usuaL!
Awesome to see the hole family enjoying this treasure 🙂 Here in South Africa, original pre wrangler jeeps are scarce but jeeps in general remain my all-time favorite vehicles.... Love the channel guys!!
Low Buck Garage had the same problem with the fuel pump.
perfect car...everythign is flat metal easy to weld,everything exposed easy to get to,easy to work on engine,if i had one i would never sell it
Good wholesome content
Too bad its so rusted out, it's a classic !! Your kids are adorable !! Great video as usual
Kids still raised the way I was in the 70s. Love to see it.
Been seeing in earlier videos what I thought was a 1970's Fiat 124 Spider in the background. This video confirms it. Will be looking forward to what you plan for it. Not many around that survived their rust issues. I had a 1974 as a daily driver for 8 years, wish I still had it today.
Hi Michael and Guest nice video 📹 and workmanship and the Jeep is nice Buff to a gleaming shine !!!
And by the way don't pay no attention to haters. I love your content.
I'll tell you what. I learned something so simple that I have never thought about until watching this video. Filling up your oil filter in the box. Yeah, I know most of you know this, but it's a good tip. Saves cleaning!
I learned to drive a 1965 CJ5 handed down through my family. Ours had shifter on the column with a warn overdrive. I wish I had it to this day but it was handed down to my two younger brothers for them to learn to drive and use. Stayed in the family 55 years but my driving on the beach in Florida just eventually ate the frame up. Thanks for the memories.
From what I've heard about marine applications with mechanical fuel pumps, you need to shim or space out the pump from the block to get the proper pressure. I suspect that is the reason they supply two gaskets now a days. Worth a try.
Nice work getting it running again…
I haven't finished the vid yet, but @lowbuckgarage had the same fueling issue you had, brand new Delphi pump had way too much fuel pressure. Napa had a non Delphi brand and solved the issue. Had almost 8 lbs at first, when he got the Napa pump it was around 4. Softer spring in the Napa pump got him less pressure. And just got to point where you found the problem lol. Funny, he had the same issue in this week's video!
You saved me a job Mate!! I was just about to mention this.
my parents were both in the military back in the early 70's and my stepdad came home with a military all green jeep like this one you have and he took me and my younger sister 4wheeling.in a field.in Pensacola Florida and boy was it fun BUT I was sitting in the same passenger seat as my sister (we were small) and a big tarantula popped into the seat that me and my sister was in and just sat on my sisters leg and she had shorts on, it didn't move but sat there and she saw it and screamed crazy, so my stepdad which driving just grabbed it off her leg and tossed it back in the field, all this in one of those military green jeeps, I remember it being in perfect shape and this was in the early 70's
I enjoy watching your videos and good to see you working with your dad. You’re a great mechanic and been following you for a long time.
That large universal joint may have been the parking brake. When strategically placed under a rear wheel...
Bahaha 🤣 Sounds about right!
It’s enjoyable to see the few videos of these jeeps being drug out and brought back.
Funny you said that ... my first LEGAL drive was a 78 cj5
Excellent picture Budget Buildz Mike :) , Your Dad :) yes my one Cousin Lorne has 1976 Jeep in black color , he got 33 Mickey Thompsons and use as Plow also bring boats for storage in Winter at all year homestead in Cottage County Of Ontario Canada! He used bring to farm with camping trailer years ago to help my dad and uncle take crops off in feilds in July to October when holidays from fire department in Toronto Ontario he did ! My cousin Nancey she has 1994 Suski Schmarotto 2 door she 4×4 in off road trails with she had done very well keeping in good condition! Had since new in 1994 when got her full G driver license!
Check Low Buck Garage explain that fuel pump problem. When you took that pump out the box I just knew what was going to happen
Those little Jeeps are awesome fun to hit the mountains in. Shame they’re weren’t more of them around so everyone you can save will be a plus for outdoor fun. Fun video great job
Nice job Nice jeep Nice show cool yard 😃👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍😍
Great stuff guys
Very cool! love the content
Really glad you’re enjoying!!! 😊
I love old jeep rescues!
Two handsome men riding in a CJ5. Perfect!
My Dad had a couple old Willy's cj2 Jeep back in the day he used to take us 3 boys plus our mom ridge riding we called it Jeep riding fun times.
GREAT FAMILY FUN NICE TO SEE THOSE KIDS TURNING WRENCHS
Great rescue, great fun with the family!
When you go to buy stuff like a fuel pump, etc. for that engine, tell them it's for a 1974 Gremlin. It will be the same part, but since it doesn't have Jeep stamped on the box it will cost you about 20% less.
Looks like yall had a blast
At our shop class, we use in our ultrasonic cleaner, "pine-sol"
Thank you for the video
Thats was fun, The kids are too cute .👍🏻
Hi Budget Buildz!
I like the work that you made on car's, especially to see you working on an old RV. I also particulary like the car who have take fire and that you repair recently. The fact of seeing those 2 one's get back on the road and the works that you made on it is honorable. Beeing a french canadian, English is not my first languages. One of my good friend translated this comment to make sure that you understand it.
Glad to see the kids helping.
The best things in life!
Last week I asked you to make a series on the Mercedes Pagoda. By coincidence I’ve some cars that you already worked on, like the 1974 VW Rabbit, 1976 Volvo 245 Wagon, 1989 BMW 320, 1978 MGB convertible and last but not least, while studying in California I had a 74 Fiat 124 Spider, like the one in the side of the CJ, that bring me lots of good memories. Kkkk So I waiting on a revival of this one. A real fun little car. Greetings
I tell ya Man, don't see your wife too much. What a beauty! What a family! Cheers to you and yours. Beautiful people.
Good morning from Cape Cod ⚓ 10 years old in 1974, I learned to drive a 1953 Willy's Jeep. Good memories. Yeah the only drawback to owning a Jeep is all the rust, especially here in New England 😂 it was great watching you and your family having a good time. Keep up the great work guys 👍✌️🇺🇲
nice little easy revival. Should be a fun project.
Hi bro from west Alabama
Hey bro! How’s things going your way? 🙂
@@BudgetBuildz making it hugss
@@BudgetBuildzyou should do a full resto on that jeep...
it looks simple and you could hit up the Jeep forums.... you could find basically anything...
Do a paint job like your old one....
You could do it right on a budget
I love your channel, can’t wait for the next one!
Love the content guys respect from Scotland
That so much fun!
Awesome to see the kids being excited! I remember when my dad took me in his Land Rover Series III off-road and I never forgot that ride. 😊
Love it! I had a '78 CJ5 back in the late 80's-early 90's. That 258 straight six is one bulletproof engine. You can put it in 1st gear in 4 low against a tree and step out of it and watch it slowly dig itself into the ground, lol.
took my bride on our first date, offroading through the woods in my 1948 willys CJ2A, made a path, drove through a pond. Almost flooded it in the water when it got stuck,, she had to crawl out across the hood and jump to dry land so I didnt cover her with mud when I began to really floor it to get out. We are celebrating 22 years together. we still laugh about that old jeep
Nice story 😀
Keeps, and AMCs in general, always intrigued me and gave me laugh the ŵay the way they used parts from the other auto makers. Jeeps would have GM ignitions Ford transmissions and mopar rears but somehow they made it all work.
You guys are quite amazing. Brilliant skills on show, educating thousands at the same time and not giving up. Your kids will have memories for life in that Jeep.
I love to have one of those jeeps but in my country theyre so expensive. Love your videos. Keep it up!
Like Mork and Mindys, ask your dad about that show Michael 😂😂
Them kids were having a blast, nice seeing that for a change, other than on the devices kids have these days. That jeep is rugged.
Cool jeep , looks like you've been working out since I was here last , and with the beard . Good work.
Thanks, you brought back many fond memories, I used to take my daughter wheeling in my ‘72 cj 304 that i rebuilt from the ground up.
She loved it, that was 30 years ago.
Fast forward to now, retired and just acquired a ‘74 cj5 304 and am going to do start tearing her down tomorrow.
Thanks for the video, and the memories, you have a wonderful family and We will be following you.
Alright Budget Builder Mondays 🎉
Awsome jeep guys😎🔥
She's a good engine/transmission swap candidate. I'm interested 😊
Hey that's very cool! Oh, it's just another six cylinder. yay......
Low budget just had the exact pressure issues with his new carb going on a wagoneer....way much spring causing efi type pressures...!...
put a fuel pump pressure gauge in line on the mechanical pump and test it . on some cars its possible to put a spacer between the pump and block , this means the lever moves less therefor less output pressure
Finally a Jeep my dream car!! Please donsome to it like new tires and anything cool you can do to it!!
Jeeps are tough!
Excellent work❤
I really enjoyed this video … very entertaining… loved it all the way 👍😀
Well done guys but please be careful with the little guy playing with that uni joint because if the cap slips off in his hand the rest of the joint could land on his head or foot. Now you’ve had your fun how about getting back to the GMC. Cheers Stuart.
Awesome video brother 👍 I ain’t gonna lie I about died when you started spitting out whatever was in that hose and later on when that seat fell over I lost it lol 😂 glad no one was sitting there hahahaha 😂
It's a good combination with motorhome
That was definitely an adventure!!! Living the best life
In my personal experience, it's actually more common than you might think to have a new mechanical fuel pump with crazy high fuel pressure (8-15 psi). Any longer, it's more of a requirement to have a fuel pressure regulator just to be on the safe side. I've been opting more and more for cheap Amazon special electric fuel pumps, and I've actually had far better luck with fuel pressure and longevity with those than any brand mechanical fuel pump. The aftermarket has really suffered terribly when it comes to these.
