As an owner of a ZJ as well, I can tell you that if it isn't leaking fluid you can assume it is empty.
The accuracy is real
Mine isn’t leaking oil and it stays full 🙏🏼🤷🏼♂️
KO Videos that's how you check fluids in a jeep. Puddle, puddle, puddle, lets go.
I hate to be 'that guy' but i lucked out.. mine was garaged i guess, 160k mi, its rust free, no leaks, but it does have a low idle issue.. bone stock, its going to be apart of my family for a lonngg time. 4.5 lift with a rooftop tent to come.
Terry Rothgeb I am happy to hear yours is running strong. I'm also jealous. Mine is at 180k miles 3.5" lift and been all over southern Utah including moab, northern Utah and Idaho mountains. That jeep is everything to me. Its gotten me into a lot of trouble but gotten me out of a lot more.
This is like a version of Pimp My Ride that actually produces a nice, functional vehicle with no shortcuts that people will actually want to drive and which won't give the owner problems down the road.
So for everyone with doubts or anything as far as questions im Lucas. And this company did more for me behind the scenes. After i got the jeep i had it for about a week when i was in a car accident. Unfortunately totaling the jeep but this company kept on doing they donated money to my gofundme to help get Norma back on the road. And thats not money that was paid by make a wish that is money from their company they have done more then I could ask for
Phantom Rebellion so you totaled it? Figures, they did nothing mechanical at all.
Chase Merchant they did what i asked them to it was my wish I wanted my jeep built up I pretty much chose everything that they did even picked the paint and what the video does not show is the complete brake system they replaced i used to have drums in the back i have drilled and slotted rotors all the way around now. So they did a rear disc conversation which isn’t cheap all in itself But even if not much mechanical work was done what does it matter they did what i asked of them i like working with my hands i was going to do norma on my own but then i got my make a wish so thats what i did had them do it and i can rebuild the motor on my own and it was totaled because i got hit by another person that was speeding it had nothing to do with anything they did or didn’t do.
Wait, so your jeep is back on the road right? How is it?
Leo no it isn’t but i am in the process of fixing it just a few other things I need and then get it inspected and it will be fine
Phantom Rebellion Ok. Sounds awesome!
“Don’t wanna take up all the cargo space” proceeds to put in huge ass sub box
Right... 😂😂😂😂😂
"What'd ya guys do?" "Fixed it." "Looks like you soaked it with WD40..." "Also fixed it..." XD Great job guys!
TriggerHapySheep best thing I've ever heard ryan say in my opinion.
i like it when they show some personality or humor in their videos LOL very relatable statement.
I wish someone would fix my hatch
All u need to fix a car is three things 1) zip ties 2) WD40 3) duct tape
I just bought a 96 jeep grand cherokee identical to this one, and after watching this video I am convinced to fix her up, and get her on the road. Love what you guys did to the Jeep!
Those old ZJs are mean! I used to have a WJ (1999-2004 Grand Cherokee) myself and I loved it. A 3.5 in. lift and some 31s would do great if its a daily driver😉 Best of luck and thanks for watching! -Zach
I own such a jeep. But there are no mods like this here. How do I get them
This what cars and trucks are all about. Building people up, helping others and bringing people joy. So happy for what you guys did and have done.
9z😂 to 9o999
😊hu0
Heck, if my 97 Jeep was remodeled like this, I'd be jumping up and down like a jelly bean 🤣🤣
Yea well everyone reacts differently and that’s ok, doesn’t mean he isn’t excited any less
@@pnwadventurer9674 I never said he wasn't excited. I could tell he genuinely happy about it, I of all people know that people express feelings differently. I said I'd be jumping up and down, but that would be when I'm alone, in front of a whole bunch of people I wouldn't know what to do
Man I love the way it turned out and I love the color
The work you guys do is absolutely amazing
Kind of blown away about all the work you guys put in for this kid, amazing job.
“It’s all about comfort and reliability”! Buys a rough country lift
That Jeep looks beautiful
My father gave me his 1995 ZJ before he passed and thanks to this video I have some more ideas how to fix it up.
Glad we could help out with some inspiration, Martin! -Zach
It’s beautiful...
I have one in spin tires a good game and the jeep is passable as always
It's so amazing you were able to do this for Lucas!
THIS is on the dp steriotypes playlist
i love how you remade it and everything. makes me want to have ya'll do my 96 jeep Laredo.
you have cancer as well?? I wish I had cancer so I could get a bunch of free stuff like these con artists,hahahah
Looks amazing. You did everything i would want. Great job every one who work on this jeep. God bless you all
this is my car right now. Im slowly fixing it up for my college years
This is my first time on this channel and awesome work! Be
I liked that blue and tan contrast though...
This makes me smile and feel good. Thanks guys. I'll be donating to Make-a-Wish!
"We didn't want to take up cargo move with the tire" puts big ass speakers lol
The only thing I don't like is where the spare tire is , you could have put it on a bracket that fits on rear bumper.
Agreed, I want my roof rack for things to go on the roof not permanent tire storage
People would just cut the ties up top and walk away with it should have been put on the back
one of the most awesome jeeps i've ever seen
The ideas here are great, as a Jeep owner for the last 23 years, I can appreciate the custom work that can be done to XJ, WK, and ZJ Jeeps which are very cheap to buy in the UK and maintain if you pick the right ones that have not been abused too much. I run a WK 5.7 HEMI on LPG which gives me the same running costs as a small car.
lpg its not good...
I'm in love with the color
Very proud of yall
Thats a nice zj for sure
This is an amazing! Great job guys, lucky Lucas, I have exact same Jeep, 95 grand Cherokee orvis edition and I wish to have mine done like that......
WOW WOW WOW THAT WHAT I CALL BEAUTIFUL I LOVE THAT COLOR AND EVERYTHING 🙏🇺🇸🇮🇹🇮🇪🇩🇴🌻🌞❤️🙏
wow that's amazing work. I want mine to look like that.
Ah yes. My favourite dude perfect stereotype video
For those who say this could've been there or here blah blah blah well far as I'm concerned I wouldn't even care. No wait, let me rephrase that I'd be ecstatic just to own a Jeep Wrangler. Plain old 97 and up, as long as it ran would be just a dream for me!! Thank u for making wishes come true I love watching ur videos.
This video makes me sad... but very happy for that kid. My 1998 ZJ has been sitting dead in the driveway for 2 years now. My son got a flat and put a smaller tire on not knowing what it would do. In less than .5 mile, destroyed the rear diff and driveshaft. Add to that, the terrible 5.2 idle issues I always had, flooding from the sunroof causing a lake in the car during summer, constant issues with the front u-joint axle shafts/wheel hubs, and the general neverending maintenance. God I miss this truck so much. Seriously. I loved my Jeep. But I have plans!
This thing looks amazing, props to XT!
Lol they unveil it and he's just like.. meh, it's alright *fake smiles*
He has seen a lot of things and needs time to get back to normal
@@colson3853 what the heck does that mean?
Michael 101 that he has been through some tough shit and has probably watched his friends die. He is mentally scarred from saving us.
@@colson3853 Wtf does that mean? Lots of People have gone thru tough times and seen people died. What about War Veterans? what is it that this youth seen or did that he deserved a New Jeep?
@@ryanreinhart1834 had to be THAT guy didn't ya
My ZJ also leaks all kinds of fluids......even with 284k on the ticker, she still kicks ass....I love her.... its a Jeep thing....31s, and leveled out
I like the original interior and exterior color and design
My favorite type of jeep
Wow just wow thanks for helping in the effort that is the most extreme wish I have ever seen blows my sons wish away
Awesome jeep!! Better yet awesome what you did for Lucas!!
You guys rock you made this young mans dream come true this is why I love your company and what it stands for!
This is awesome! Wishing I was Lucas
alex cruz not all of them are like that
he's terminally ill, don't wish that upon yourself
hes gay
Thats a bad ass build.
This thing is incredible
Lucas doesn't seem to be happy. Its like he's thinking about how much money he'll pay later after the show. Haha lol
😂 hilarious
Car, colour ah my favorite🔥🔥🔥
I hate those taillights. (OPINION) either way it was a great build and one of the best I’ve seen
Shut the hell up equinox
how did "adding fender flares" open up more room to fit 33s? guessing you meant you trimmed the wheel wells and added the flares to cover the bodywork.
breathe and squeeze i was thinking the same thing.
@@thomasstanford5586when you add those flares you are supposed to cut out some of the fender so yes hide body work. i personally just when with 4 inch bulge fiberglass fenders from McNeil off-road. they are also about 100-150 bucks cheaper than the ones these guys used and are super unique no drilling required and come on its a race jeep now!
they did a cut and fold on the fenders and added the flares to cover it they stick out about 3 inches to cover the wider tires making it legal
@@thomasstanford5586 Me too
Looks like lucas will bring that jeep back in old shape very fkn soon!!!
I have a 96 ZJ. I have not had any problems with leaking anything. It has 184000 miles on it. I've installed the Rough County 4" long arm kit and BFG K02 33" tires. I also swapped the Quadratrac for a 242 case and a Tom Woods SYE and rear driveshaft. Lucas, I hope you get your ZJ back soon. It looks awesome! What gear ratio was installed?
if they did it to match those new wheels it has to be 3.73 or 4.10
Wow so cool. I'm excited to repaint my 96 zj now! 😍
Best ZJ build ever 😭👍
well done guys,that is perfect
Thank you for watching! -Zach
“What you guys do”
“Fixed it”
“Looks like you just soaked it in wd40”
“Also fixed it”
Me as fuck! 😂
these make a wish videos are definitely underviewed. such good content. you just gained a subscriber.
What a great stereotype video
I'm so in love I wish mine looked that good
Greetz from Germany
Was zur
I have a 96 with 220k on the engine. I've rebuilt my trans and over drive lastyear. And put an oil pan gasket and timing chain an gears and gasket water pump and altinater an power steering pump for good measures. Oyea new tires. Ain't had a signal issue sence that 1000 I spent on it lastyear.
There you go! Glad to hear its going well, Cliff! Thanks for watching! -Zach
Turned out badass
I'm curious if Lucas survived, for lack of better words as
that beast would clearly be something worth living for in & of its self.
A real morale booster in life, indeed.
Ive been fixing up my 97 V8 5.2l Grand Cherokee for awhile;
sadly she's only a 2WD however after this video I know anything
is possible!
Amazing work and very inspiring as well as sweet job there everyone,
From Heart to Finish ;)
this was awesome of these ppl to do this for this kid
Strong work guys and gals! Looks awesome. Congrats Lucas.
I tell if that was my Jeep that just got restored like that, I would have been jumping up and down with joy. I probably would of had some tears in my eyes. The kid seemed as though someone just fixed his flat tire on his bike. Come on, show some gratitude or some kind of happiness. Maybe he just a spoiled brat that would have gotten a new one for his birthday. That truck came out beautiful. Oh, well, “ maybe some people don’t like showing their emotions. Enjoy the truck kid!!!
Guys the winch goes inside the ARB Deluxe bull bar not on top of it. Come on! If he does a winch pull with it mounted that way it is going to rip clean off the bumper. The rest of the build looks awesome.
Jared Chiara the bumper was torn off easily in a car accident i had a week
Later
ouch, did it wreck the jeep bad?
just read above that it was totalled. dang.
Ohh my gosh...beautiful
How awesome you guys rock
Holy shit nice jeep
As a UK owner of a ZJ i can honestly say thats a fantastic looking Jeep!
Wat a classy jeep u modified 👏👌👌
as a 26 yr old 7x Jeep buyer i would just like to do all the work and build in it myself but good job i would have been more excited and appreciative.
Wow great job
Awesome Job 💥
Thank you for watching! -Zach
@@extremeterrain Thank you for the great video !
I was able to fit 33s on my zj with a 4 inch RC/rusty's mixed parts lift without any major cutting. I just had to trim the front fenders about a inch or so.
Is just me or Lucas don't look that happy man !!
well if you just got the best thing in your life while being told you have fuck all time to enjoy it, wouldn't you feel kinda bummed too?
I was beyond happy to get the jeep the unfortunate thing. Is the car accident i had no less then a week after getting it back totaled the jeep. But they did make my wish come true so it will sure be back on the road asap. Plus they donated money to help fix what happened in the accident. And when i said awesome in the video. I was trying not to cry
Phantom Rebellion wait you're Lucas?
I am lucas
Phantom Rebellion !! Mmm !!
Just got a 98ZJ , works like a charm , but i got to fix a few issues with the brakes and a little knocking sound one of the valves is making , it went away when i changed oil which looks like previous owner had 5-30 so i got some 10-40 in there and the knock went away when i added it but came back, going to get those little problems solved then comes the lifting and tires and bumpers and stuff . Love my zj tbh
This is my dream jeep.
Thanks for watching! -Zach
Hope to have one..
Lmao Soaked it with WD40 literally the story of my life !
My favourite dude perfect stereotype
