Hey, look at this guy. dude. people, What? you got there? you go. Yeah, he's pretty much a Savage pretty much a speed demon.
What are you pointing at? He's pointing at an F-150 dude. 150 This dude's out here walking bro. I Know dude. a few months ago, he couldn't even gets it from his.
Uncle George Really yeah, he saw you just so fast in. that's where he gets his smarts. probably. Yeah, every time he hangs out with you, he just usually cries.
Lees Al How you doing Bubba got a little Shiner on the NOG here. Yeah, you bump it in the shin. Yeah, oh what did you do? Dude I Guess he was holding a Lego mullet and had a crash. Oh okay.
his head on. It happens. tough. Bridge Hell yeah brother, you're on the pleas YouTube channel.
Oh oh no. dude. go ahead and bump the key. Yep, Stop.
All right. We got this baby up on the lift going to pull the balancer out. We took the belt off. balancer bolt is cranked no pun intended.
Balancer bolt is crank no pun intended Ty says balancer. Oh okay. well. you just going to pull the whole thing out that comes right out of there guessing those are your cam shaft gears.
I'd say that the timing definitely don't but that's not ideal. non interference. Yeah, that's crazy to me, huh? The crank is cranked. Crank is cranked, but none of my bolts came loose.
That's good. No, those ones didn't. All right brother. We're engine in on this thing.
Motor's in there, sealed up still. Wow, did you get a new crank trigger on this thing? Yes. yeah, Someone took mine. Oh yeah, we did use that on something.
What was that? the Blazer a Unbelievable. So now we have a brand new MSD trigger sensor MSD Now sells multiple kits for crank Triggers on LS LS Stuff So it's a bolt-on kit. Spacing is perfect. We got that headers are on sealed valve covers are on sealed.
I'm working on some steam Port Stuff Motion Race Works Valve covers. and we just built that turbo kit not long before so it's going to go right back on. It's got to all that stuff fanciness, but it's getting there. and I Remember, we just did these coil packs too right before it blew up as well.
So it's pretty solid as far as mechanically. I mean you're going to have the turbo kit on here an intake in no time? Yeah, the intake uh, is can be set on set on there real quick. Let's take a quick Gander with it on. Looks like there's so much room.
Give the people an idea of what we're working with. Yeah, whole. Ruby dude making a comeback? That's just it hits. It hits all right.
So Ruby Mechanically is looking good. How are we looking in the electrical department? Zach I Mean we're actually pretty behind. As you can see, there's still wire in here. It's not even strict.
Oh yeah, so you're ripping this stuff out? Yeah, we're going to rest even your headlights and tail lights and everything. Everything you know I mean realistically, the wiring is the reason this car came off the road. So yeah, it just had some weird wiring stuff from all of our Renditions of the build. so we're restarting. I mean I'm not even doing a pre-made harness. the engine harness that was the original Terminator and that one had a lot of and it got patched and pieced extended Co Smart Co Lot of issues. Yeah, the good news is Holly was able to find us a brand new harness so we have a new harness. taking a Ganer in here.
Little bit of a disaster. We've got wires everywhere. plus I think we had a rat living in here for a couple of days. I did find where a rat was munching on some stuff in.
Yeah, dude, you'll get that on these big jobs when you park them in the bar. Got some friends out there. it's got some friends in the barn so we're going to keep it intercooled obviously. So we got the tank back here and we were just looking at those lines earlier.
They all look good little munchin. Look at this still goty in there. you go. Need some acorns? AC We got a brand new battery coming so most of the stuff should be all right mechanically wise.
I mean from torque 2 back, it's good. There's nothing wrong with it so that stayed the same. All right? Well, I guess it's up to you Zach Yep, got to get all issues out. Make it happen all right.
So before we can get to cutting, we got to pull all the stuff out of the way. So I'm going to pull the rear end drive shaft. We've got a bunch of wiring stuff, our air compressor for all of our, uh, boost controller stuff. That's all got to come out and get moved to a different location because our four link brackets are actually going to sit roughly in this area right here.
We're going to make that lower bar a lot longer. so let's get to it. Oh oh boy, what are you saying dang about? It's a good thing we're doing this. What's the deal you uh you about ripped your rear end and half in a couple spot.
Oh dang yeah, she was flexing pretty good. Okay, that one's not bad. that one, that one's got some Gap to it. damn has moved around a good bit.
Holy crap, that's pretty crazy going 233 like that. That's not good. All right guys. Mullet's rear end is officially out and ready to be upgraded to that bad girl.
full floater Big dog. Re: talk about good timing. That's a pretty gnarly crack right there. Well, once you have three years in service, a lot of Street miles.
Yeah, tons of Street mileage. I Don't think there's many cars out there that compute the mileage we' put on this thing. Yeah, that's probably what got it there. A lot of Street driving and a lot of horsepower.
a lot of real hard Le lockups. You know what? I mean. those lockups really just beat on stuff. Crazy.
Yeah for that to break, this axle had to have been flexing a ton to be able to break, right? I bet are you ready to do some cutting? You got a lot of cutting to do. I Got a good bit of cutting ahead of me. So um, say goodbye to your car. It's the last time you'll see it like this. All right, hopefully. I don't catch this one on fire. but yeah, promise that and uh, take goodbye to the clean shop as well. Yeah, I'm about to destroy the floor pretty pretty thoroughly.
It is what it is. brother. do your worst. All right.
Now that we got all the junk out of the way, we can figure out where we're going to put this guy. So that's our old lower hole. Those are our old upper holes. That stuff definitely all has to get cut out.
but I also have to figure out where this Plate's going and how I'm going to tile the tubes into it. It's got mounts uh, top and bottom for it to kind of slip over a tube like that so you can weld it in there. but those tubes don't exist so we have to figure out where they're going. So I can figure out where these are going and then we can start cutting all the stuff out that is going to be in the way.
Which if you look at it, yeah, that top hole. There's bars in the way of that so that's all Got to definitely go away. Let's take a look at what you got here. Ty Well what we got is a whole lot of nothing.
lot of nothing dude. I've cut everything out so holy crap we had to make room for the big dog stuff. Convenient down here. Looks so easy and nice.
Wide open there so many possibilities now. All right. So where are you going to be putting these Po link bars? Where do they kind of go? So your old setup was right here, right? Yeah. and we're going to push it back a little bit more so this plate.
you have a little bit longer bars. Yeah, this plate will be for the rear end. Oh okay, somewhere in that area, right? Oh, so you just have to make a bar for the top and the bottom. Yeah! so I have to extend the bar out over and around and you know G that all up and do some triangulation stuff and then something is come down and grab some places.
So okay we got some bars to put back in here I Look forward to the time lapses. Do your thing brother, We know we know you got this we'll see Leroy and MC Flurry's 1060 foots have uh proven your yeah your for linking ability So' done this a few times forun we trust you We trust you. Fortunately it's not the first go around but yeah, we got a lot of stuff to cut. Well this looks good guys.
Sick week is coming up right around the corner! I Mean we've only got a few weeks and we got to have both of these cars ready plus one extra one. We don't know what we're going to take as our third car yet, but it sounds like it's going to be TI's Ranger so he's working on that as well. So as you can see, ton of work to do on these cars but that's it for now. Thanks for watching.
Do it for day wol frecking. See you later a.
Always replace that crank bolt and torque to spec or this can happen ๐
Love how the song was louder then usual as the engine was going into ruby just for that extra nostalgia
Just a thought but check the welds on the rear cage on Mullet. Might need to be welded and reinforced as it's quite long…. Might also tell on why the rear axle is tweaked.
Love the content keep it coming hrother
I'll buy the well used TBMs off the old rear end if you wanna sell em
Bro it hurts my feelings any day thereโs not a new Cletus vid.
Video 289 of asking for new Timelapse music
All that chassis work: Tye just says "No hill for a climber" and get's after it!
Use a different song. So lazy
will yall please put a z71 sticker on rubys fender already it will be amazing
Iโm loving this supra content ! Itโs so different from the other cars you run ! Keep up all the great content !
All that insane tire shake mullet was having ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ
when Tye starts talking about upper and lower holes………. ๐
No joke, you might want to have a build channel. Take extra time from your key builders and have them talk about their stuff. That shit is interesting with a good talker, and both of them are great on camera, especially Ty, he makes it seem easy. Why fast forward through stuff and waste camera time when you can make a new channel that give profit. Your only loss would be the extra time it takes for them to talk about the process and camera setup.
Cleetus need to wash his race suit ๐
So happy to see Ruby making a return, she has way too much life left to be scrapped.
