WEBVTT

00:00:02.900 --> 00:00:05.799
Welcome to Botches Off -Road. Join us as we talk

00:00:05.799 --> 00:00:08.199
about everything from gear reviews to trail stories,

00:00:08.419 --> 00:00:10.980
tank camping to rock landing, and all things

00:00:10.980 --> 00:00:14.720
to do with the outdoors. I got it right the first

00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:17.379
time, guys. I think you were reading the script.

00:00:20.280 --> 00:00:27.480
Yeah, I was. But I got it right. So this is a

00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:29.879
wrap. We're not going to talk about food for

00:00:29.879 --> 00:00:33.820
seven and a half minutes. Except, I did just

00:00:33.820 --> 00:00:37.740
make banging barbecue chicken for dinner, guys.

00:00:37.820 --> 00:00:43.979
I got a box of 24 chicken legs from Jeans for

00:00:43.979 --> 00:00:47.380
$3 out of their discount rack the other day.

00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:53.320
Hey, dude. Times be tough. And I put them in

00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:57.869
a whole... thing of barbecue and half a can of

00:00:57.869 --> 00:01:01.869
coke slow let them marinate overnight slow cooked

00:01:01.869 --> 00:01:04.109
them for six hours and then finished them off

00:01:04.109 --> 00:01:11.909
on the grill they were a perfect okay i'm not

00:01:11.909 --> 00:01:13.430
gonna comment because if we do we'll get into

00:01:13.430 --> 00:01:16.010
seven minutes of food let's talk about seven

00:01:16.010 --> 00:01:18.349
minutes of food what's your comment no i mean

00:01:18.349 --> 00:01:20.950
it just sounds really good my uh dad used to

00:01:20.950 --> 00:01:24.969
make a camp he'd call it mountain dew stew and

00:01:24.969 --> 00:01:28.430
he'd cut up like little steak chunks, like roast

00:01:28.430 --> 00:01:32.370
chunks, and the cast iron. He'd sweep baby rays,

00:01:32.549 --> 00:01:34.209
and then he'd finish it off with like a half

00:01:34.209 --> 00:01:36.250
a can of Mountain Dew, and that was Mountain

00:01:36.250 --> 00:01:39.170
Dew stew. And, oh, my God, I tell you what, dude,

00:01:39.250 --> 00:01:40.829
that hit every time when you're sitting next

00:01:40.829 --> 00:01:46.609
to the river. Yeah, dude. Yeah. Coke, I've never

00:01:46.609 --> 00:01:49.209
done Mountain Dew, but Coke is great for barbecue.

00:01:50.150 --> 00:01:53.359
Yeah, my dad was weird. He'd eat, like, Mountain

00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.700
Dew with Golden Grahams. Oh, my God. What the

00:01:56.700 --> 00:02:00.359
fuck? Yeah. Jesus Christ. There's a reason why

00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:04.620
he's still single. Well, now we know why you

00:02:04.620 --> 00:02:06.719
came out the way you did. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.

00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.139
Yes. There was an error in the printing process.

00:02:11.740 --> 00:02:16.599
Twice. Twice. So, yeah, it's a good old wrap.

00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:20.240
I think we're going to save. Gavin's rap for

00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:23.159
the hour because he has way more stuff than we

00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:29.460
do. But... Because your weekend was what? Like

00:02:29.460 --> 00:02:31.599
four days long? Five days long? Six days long?

00:02:31.639 --> 00:02:33.400
Something like that? Yeah, Wednesday to Monday.

00:02:34.580 --> 00:02:37.939
Jesus. Jealous. I can never do that, by the way.

00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:40.780
I left early, too. It was supposed to be Wednesday

00:02:40.780 --> 00:02:43.099
to Wednesday and we decided to just come back.

00:02:43.219 --> 00:02:46.740
We were kind of done with the sand. I wish I

00:02:46.740 --> 00:02:48.860
could do that, but I can't get away from work

00:02:48.860 --> 00:02:51.699
like that. I mean, you had time a couple weeks

00:02:51.699 --> 00:02:56.379
ago. Kind of. That was a different story. That

00:02:56.379 --> 00:03:00.360
doesn't happen a lot. I can fix that. So, Mark,

00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:05.659
how do you think our weekend went? I'd say it

00:03:05.659 --> 00:03:08.039
was pretty productive, at least for you and me.

00:03:08.500 --> 00:03:11.900
My brother was kind of slouch on his whole thing.

00:03:12.659 --> 00:03:15.689
But he got it done. Yes, he did. He did get it

00:03:15.689 --> 00:03:19.270
done. The frame on the black truck is back to

00:03:19.270 --> 00:03:22.930
being solid. Yep. There's no more rust on the

00:03:22.930 --> 00:03:27.949
frame of the black truck. Hey, shut the fuck

00:03:27.949 --> 00:03:33.189
up, Mark. We know about frames. The black truck

00:03:33.189 --> 00:03:38.009
is rust -free once again. The small little spot

00:03:38.009 --> 00:03:42.210
of rust is gone. We have repaired it. But yeah,

00:03:42.289 --> 00:03:46.560
so that's cool. uh we got into mark's truck after

00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:48.740
its little incident that has not been talked

00:03:48.740 --> 00:03:54.219
about on the podcast yeah that was fun to find

00:03:54.219 --> 00:03:57.000
out about yeah it's a go elaborate elaborate

00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:02.800
well give me a second geez so my brother had

00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:06.879
to borrow my vehicle and he had pretty much zero

00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:10.710
roll time with this truck it's been kind of my

00:04:10.710 --> 00:04:13.569
bad for doing it but at the same time I've been

00:04:13.569 --> 00:04:15.729
fighting with different things I haven't trusted

00:04:15.729 --> 00:04:19.750
anyone else with a truck yet besides Alex because

00:04:19.750 --> 00:04:23.089
he knows what my truck runs and it's pretty much

00:04:23.089 --> 00:04:25.269
just like it so he knows how it feels and drives

00:04:25.269 --> 00:04:30.370
so he had to borrow it for an appointment and

00:04:30.370 --> 00:04:34.550
I think it was Tuesday coming back from work

00:04:34.550 --> 00:04:39.420
someone Braked a little too hard getting off

00:04:39.420 --> 00:04:43.180
the highway, and he ended up rear -ending Nissan.

00:04:44.019 --> 00:04:50.000
What was that? A freaking Vibe? No, that's Pontiac.

00:04:51.720 --> 00:04:54.720
Dude, and he didn't just rear -end this thing,

00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:57.579
right? He absolutely annihilated the back end

00:04:57.579 --> 00:05:00.800
of this Nissan. Oh, Nissan kicks. Yeah. I mean,

00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:04.439
like, absolutely fucking annihilated it. Yeah.

00:05:05.660 --> 00:05:09.629
But. The taco had, like, really minor damage,

00:05:09.730 --> 00:05:14.170
so that's cool. Yep. My bumper wing got tweaked

00:05:14.170 --> 00:05:16.649
back a little bit. Then we found that out after

00:05:16.649 --> 00:05:20.370
we got everything squared away. Headlight was

00:05:20.370 --> 00:05:24.029
cracked. Headlight was cracked. On the back of

00:05:24.029 --> 00:05:26.129
the housing, luckily, so not the front, so it

00:05:26.129 --> 00:05:29.750
still works. But definitely need to be replaced

00:05:29.750 --> 00:05:32.990
at some point. And then your fender was bent

00:05:32.990 --> 00:05:36.649
all out of whack. Yep. And then my fog light.

00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:42.240
mount is tweaked pulled can't get that push back

00:05:42.240 --> 00:05:48.360
in but for right now it's fine i wish oxbeam

00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:50.660
sewed brackets by themselves for replacements

00:05:50.660 --> 00:05:52.759
but i don't think they do based off what i've

00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:56.720
seen oh my god yeah i don't feel like buying

00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:59.319
a whole nother kit just for that one time you

00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:01.660
let him use it one time and he rears dude this

00:06:01.660 --> 00:06:06.100
is my fault I've been on Mark to let his brother

00:06:06.100 --> 00:06:08.519
drive that thing, and the first time he does,

00:06:08.740 --> 00:06:16.860
boom. So no frame damage? No, no frame damage.

00:06:17.459 --> 00:06:20.959
That bumper held up real well. That's a new one

00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:24.839
too, isn't it? Yes. Yeah, that's good break -in.

00:06:26.420 --> 00:06:30.600
Yeah, so what did we end up doing? I fixed the

00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:34.180
headlight. I just got some JB plastic weld and

00:06:34.180 --> 00:06:36.560
welded the headlight back together on the backside.

00:06:36.959 --> 00:06:41.120
Yeah. Um, but the fender back in place that I

00:06:41.120 --> 00:06:43.500
am proud of myself for making. You did a really

00:06:43.500 --> 00:06:45.939
good job with that. I was surprised. I thought

00:06:45.939 --> 00:06:47.699
we were going to buy new fender for that one.

00:06:47.800 --> 00:06:51.959
Like you can barely tell. Yep. Yeah. That was

00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:56.980
wow. And I did it with a multi tool and my hand.

00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:00.740
Like I didn't have any special tools. Yep. Yeah,

00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:07.060
you can barely tell it happened. Then we proceeded

00:07:07.060 --> 00:07:09.579
to strip all the paint off because that spider

00:07:09.579 --> 00:07:13.620
cracked from the impact point. Yes, it did. Sticker

00:07:13.620 --> 00:07:18.500
bombing the fender? Yeah. Yes, we are. Yep. Saw

00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:24.220
that coming. And Alex convinced me. We ended

00:07:24.220 --> 00:07:27.930
up chopping my fenders. Yeah. So we're going

00:07:27.930 --> 00:07:30.750
to see how long I like it. So far I like it.

00:07:30.889 --> 00:07:33.550
I was like, dude, listen, you need new fenders

00:07:33.550 --> 00:07:37.250
anyway, so why not just do it as a trial basis

00:07:37.250 --> 00:07:43.250
and then go from there? Yep. Alright. I agree.

00:07:43.410 --> 00:07:47.009
You guys. At least for one week and you guys

00:07:47.009 --> 00:07:51.089
completely destroy Mike's vehicle. No, it's pretty

00:07:51.089 --> 00:07:54.230
sick. It's pretty sick. Well, at least you guys

00:07:54.230 --> 00:08:00.399
will have matching sticker bombs no his is passenger

00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:03.939
side well still i mean like you'll have it on

00:08:03.939 --> 00:08:08.240
your front fenders yeah you're not wrong i uh

00:08:08.240 --> 00:08:10.339
i might have a sticker or two for you mark i

00:08:10.339 --> 00:08:13.220
got some bison gear stickers and no site stickers

00:08:13.220 --> 00:08:18.860
i think so much appreciated so then while mark

00:08:18.860 --> 00:08:22.819
was dealing with all that i went through the

00:08:22.819 --> 00:08:25.519
forerunners frame and Painted it all pretty and

00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:29.379
black and got it all ready for winter. I mean,

00:08:29.379 --> 00:08:31.740
I painted everything, man. Everything's all prettied

00:08:31.740 --> 00:08:36.639
up. And then I stripped all the paint off my

00:08:36.639 --> 00:08:39.320
pasture side fender and then clear coated that.

00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.379
Okay, so the reason for that is that a long time

00:08:43.379 --> 00:08:50.019
ago, I welded on some tabs. Yeah, some brackets.

00:08:50.580 --> 00:08:52.840
And I don't use them anymore, but they burnt

00:08:52.840 --> 00:08:55.740
my paint off. So I had these rust spots forming,

00:08:55.840 --> 00:08:57.840
and I was like, man, this is ugly. So I fixed

00:08:57.840 --> 00:09:06.139
it. Fixed it. Fixed it. It's like I just stripped

00:09:06.139 --> 00:09:08.899
all the paint off the fender. And then clear

00:09:08.899 --> 00:09:13.820
-coated it. It looks better than it did. Yeah,

00:09:13.840 --> 00:09:18.220
that was your brackets for your... Garden trim?

00:09:18.539 --> 00:09:21.500
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Uh -huh. I did that for

00:09:21.500 --> 00:09:27.960
a while. So, yeah. I did that. And then, what

00:09:27.960 --> 00:09:31.279
else did I do? Oh, I got a new intake from Duncan

00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:34.960
because my intake was all fuckied. Oh, I forgot

00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:37.639
about that. I also did my intake, too. Yeah,

00:09:37.659 --> 00:09:42.639
you did. You did. Did I do anything else? I feel

00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:46.470
like that's all I got done. I say that's all

00:09:46.470 --> 00:09:48.269
I got done, but that was a lot of fucking work.

00:09:48.350 --> 00:09:52.929
What about the bearing? I'm not there yet. Well,

00:09:52.950 --> 00:09:57.129
you said that's all, so I was like. So, yeah.

00:09:57.330 --> 00:10:00.049
It was the weekend, so. So I got all of this

00:10:00.049 --> 00:10:04.509
done, and it's Monday now. And my wife had driven

00:10:04.509 --> 00:10:07.370
to town and everything and hadn't said anything

00:10:07.370 --> 00:10:09.649
was wrong. And then I got in the car to drive

00:10:09.649 --> 00:10:12.809
into town to get food. I made it five feet, and

00:10:12.809 --> 00:10:15.639
I'm like, what the hell is that sound? And she's

00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:18.379
like, what sound? And I'm like, you can't hear

00:10:18.379 --> 00:10:23.039
that awful grinding. So I went down to the church,

00:10:23.120 --> 00:10:25.039
turned around, and I mean, it was awful. Some

00:10:25.039 --> 00:10:27.580
of the worst grinding I've ever heard. And I

00:10:27.580 --> 00:10:30.419
jacked up the driver's side, and I just watched

00:10:30.419 --> 00:10:33.580
the wheel go from this angle to straight. It

00:10:33.580 --> 00:10:36.720
was like a 45 to straight. And I'm like, oh,

00:10:36.779 --> 00:10:42.139
God damn it. I took it apart and gave it a shake.

00:10:42.200 --> 00:10:45.360
Sure enough, the wheel bearings bad. So then

00:10:45.360 --> 00:10:47.000
I'm like, well, I better check the other side.

00:10:47.539 --> 00:10:52.200
Sure enough, that one was bad, too. So I jacked

00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:55.240
up the front, got it on jack stands and got both

00:10:55.240 --> 00:10:57.679
hubs off and press the bearings out. I'm still

00:10:57.679 --> 00:11:00.759
waiting on bearings, but they're at least pressed

00:11:00.759 --> 00:11:04.039
out and ready to press new ones in. These things

00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:07.059
came out in millions of pieces, like not just

00:11:07.059 --> 00:11:10.379
the not just the barrel bearings, but like. The

00:11:10.379 --> 00:11:13.259
actual bearing housing had disintegrated into

00:11:13.259 --> 00:11:19.960
a million pieces. It was, oh, God. And if I remember,

00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:23.220
right here, I'll put the sound bite I recorded

00:11:23.220 --> 00:11:27.299
of the wheel bearing. So where are we at? We're

00:11:27.299 --> 00:11:31.120
at 1137. Let me write this down real quick. Yeah,

00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:37.679
God awful, dude. I've never seen a wheel bearing

00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:43.610
that bad. That happened quick. Yeah. Yeah, so

00:11:43.610 --> 00:11:47.669
when I was taking it apart, what I found is the

00:11:47.669 --> 00:11:50.350
previous owner of the crawler didn't put a seal

00:11:50.350 --> 00:11:54.090
between the bearing and the hub, so it was just

00:11:54.090 --> 00:11:57.029
allowing water and mud to get in there and bounce

00:11:57.029 --> 00:12:02.769
around all willy -nilly. Wow, jeez. So, yeah.

00:12:04.149 --> 00:12:06.980
Well. And you can't really see that there's not

00:12:06.980 --> 00:12:09.639
a seal there unless you take the hub out. But

00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:11.379
to take the hub out, you got to press the hub

00:12:11.379 --> 00:12:18.279
out. It's a whole process. Did I have anything

00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:22.419
that happened this weekend? We'll get to you

00:12:22.419 --> 00:12:27.340
in the hour. I was trying to think of anything

00:12:27.340 --> 00:12:29.779
else that didn't really pertain to the trip.

00:12:32.779 --> 00:12:35.730
Oh, I got my bison gear stuff. while i was gone

00:12:35.730 --> 00:12:41.309
yeah um had my two external molly panels that

00:12:41.309 --> 00:12:45.470
they gave me got me gave me i don't know and

00:12:45.470 --> 00:12:50.289
the universal wheel mount so i have a project

00:12:50.289 --> 00:12:54.389
now that i gotta film the install on them and

00:12:54.389 --> 00:12:56.669
doesn't in the wheel mount missing a piece though

00:12:56.669 --> 00:12:59.250
so the universal wheel mount is just the plate

00:12:59.250 --> 00:13:03.149
itself that sits on the wheel to make a flat

00:13:03.149 --> 00:13:07.230
surface like a mounting surface for, let's say

00:13:07.230 --> 00:13:12.830
a propane tank or a, um, roto packs, something

00:13:12.830 --> 00:13:16.990
like that. Yeah. So they didn't include the strap

00:13:16.990 --> 00:13:20.990
that wraps around the tire. It's basically a

00:13:20.990 --> 00:13:24.710
small ratchet strap. I could do that. Yeah, I

00:13:24.710 --> 00:13:28.570
could do that. Um, but they didn't include anything

00:13:28.570 --> 00:13:32.399
else with it. So kind of. You know, I sent them

00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:34.360
an email just letting them know that that was,

00:13:34.399 --> 00:13:36.200
you know, I don't know if they meant to do that.

00:13:36.679 --> 00:13:39.100
So I was going to say, like, hey, you know, there's

00:13:39.100 --> 00:13:40.799
not much of an install I could do with this.

00:13:40.840 --> 00:13:43.840
I could set it on the tire, and that's about

00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:48.379
all I could do. So just letting them know, like,

00:13:48.419 --> 00:13:49.960
if they want me to do something different with

00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:53.220
it. There's not much I could test on it, you

00:13:53.220 --> 00:13:57.379
know, for them. But the MOLLE panels, they're

00:13:57.379 --> 00:14:02.120
all there. I'll probably put those on tomorrow

00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:04.299
or the next day, whenever is a decent day to

00:14:04.299 --> 00:14:06.620
do it and not raining because it kind of rained

00:14:06.620 --> 00:14:11.320
all day today. All fucking day. So, yeah, that

00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:14.259
was cool. Still have my fan coming in the mail.

00:14:14.639 --> 00:14:16.600
I don't know when that's going to be there. And

00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:21.379
right before I left for this trip, like the day

00:14:21.379 --> 00:14:26.039
before, I'd say Tuesday morning, I got my NoveSite

00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:31.240
pods in. So I just threw those in real quick.

00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:34.899
They were real easy to put together. What do

00:14:34.899 --> 00:14:38.460
you have them wired to? What do you mean? Did

00:14:38.460 --> 00:14:44.259
you wire them to your switch panel? Yes. But

00:14:44.259 --> 00:14:51.799
so they have a control box in the wiring harness

00:14:51.799 --> 00:14:54.840
that they gave. Okay. Which controls the different

00:14:54.840 --> 00:14:58.710
like patterns and stuff like that. So it's kind

00:14:58.710 --> 00:15:00.870
of a weird thing, like I connected all the wires

00:15:00.870 --> 00:15:05.710
into the switch panel and then still use their

00:15:05.710 --> 00:15:11.250
control box and switch. So to turn them on, I

00:15:11.250 --> 00:15:15.190
would have to click on or turn on the switch

00:15:15.190 --> 00:15:17.710
panel button for them and then turn the button

00:15:17.710 --> 00:15:21.570
on. So it's kind of a pain, but it's not a permanent

00:15:21.570 --> 00:15:25.159
placement either. so yeah we can definitely fix

00:15:25.159 --> 00:15:28.399
that yeah i mean i'm assuming the easy way to

00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:34.000
do that is just to bypass the box um but we'll

00:15:34.000 --> 00:15:37.580
see i i mean i'm happy with them so far they're

00:15:37.580 --> 00:15:40.639
pretty dope uh my only complaint would be they

00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:43.879
probably have too many programs for the like

00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:47.299
the little halos like yeah there's like 10 of

00:15:47.299 --> 00:15:48.740
them and i'm like you don't need you don't need

00:15:48.740 --> 00:15:52.639
10 like I get if you had like a set of four,

00:15:52.779 --> 00:15:55.820
it would really let you customize what you're

00:15:55.820 --> 00:16:00.720
doing. But for two pods, man, like 10 different

00:16:00.720 --> 00:16:03.519
settings that you have to switch through to get

00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:05.440
what you want. And it does not have a memory.

00:16:05.519 --> 00:16:07.320
So you have to like redo it every time you start

00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:11.320
the truck up. Jesus. Which is fine because I've

00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:14.159
remembered the one that I like, which is five.

00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:16.340
So I just press the button five times when I

00:16:16.340 --> 00:16:18.240
start the truck up. And I was like, I don't know.

00:16:18.500 --> 00:16:22.120
It's fine. It would be nice if it did have like

00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:27.720
a save feature. Yeah. So we can't do what we

00:16:27.720 --> 00:16:29.519
do with the chase lights. We figure out which

00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:31.860
one we want and left it on that one. Right. Yeah.

00:16:31.879 --> 00:16:34.039
Right. But other than that, it was nice. Like

00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:37.120
the, the wiring harness was really seemed like

00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:39.580
it was really well made. Uh, everything felt

00:16:39.580 --> 00:16:42.340
pretty solid, real easy to put together, obviously.

00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:46.960
So. I mean, if Gavin could put it together, anybody

00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:50.669
can put it together. Yep. That's true. I mean,

00:16:50.690 --> 00:16:54.750
I can't complain, dude. For free? I mean, there's

00:16:54.750 --> 00:16:57.690
really not much I can complain about. Got them

00:16:57.690 --> 00:17:03.669
on the giveaway, so. Yep. Well, that's pretty

00:17:03.669 --> 00:17:06.630
dope, dude. I know Mark did one other thing this

00:17:06.630 --> 00:17:11.890
weekend. Yes. So, I think we talked about it

00:17:11.890 --> 00:17:14.529
here, right? The cowl intake before? I think

00:17:14.529 --> 00:17:16.210
we've talked about it. It'd been a while ago,

00:17:16.329 --> 00:17:19.529
but yeah, I think we talked about it. So... because

00:17:19.529 --> 00:17:21.630
of those chopping my fender i got rid of the

00:17:21.630 --> 00:17:25.630
inner fender liner so i my intake was way exposed

00:17:25.630 --> 00:17:30.849
now so we had to move it originally so there's

00:17:30.849 --> 00:17:32.910
two ways of doing it you can get the actual kit

00:17:32.910 --> 00:17:36.230
that a company sells it's like i think 140 for

00:17:36.230 --> 00:17:40.109
that kit or you can get all the parts through

00:17:40.109 --> 00:17:45.480
amazon and pretty much get it today after purchase

00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.079
but i think we had two day wait because the one

00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:50.619
part didn't come in right away like and it was

00:17:50.619 --> 00:17:53.099
way cheaper just ordering the parts on amazon

00:17:53.099 --> 00:17:58.519
oh 100 it was way cheaper i think i saved probably

00:17:58.519 --> 00:18:01.519
like 40 overall for the overall purchase of it

00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:05.759
so i mean 40 but i guarantee it was going to

00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:08.279
be there this weekend and get it done and not

00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:11.599
worry about it getting filled up with water or

00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:21.269
dirt yeah So that was fun. Yeah. So yeah, it

00:18:21.269 --> 00:18:25.509
was a lot of stuff. Then we also patched my little

00:18:25.509 --> 00:18:29.250
brother's Tacoma frame. Oh yeah. Because he went

00:18:29.250 --> 00:18:31.609
and got a oil change and they're like, Hey, did

00:18:31.609 --> 00:18:34.849
you know there's a crack on your frame? So we

00:18:34.849 --> 00:18:37.410
knocked that out for him on Friday and we noticed

00:18:37.410 --> 00:18:40.210
there's a bunch of oil under the truck. And just

00:18:40.210 --> 00:18:42.369
kind of, you know, wrote it off like, you know,

00:18:42.369 --> 00:18:44.130
they just did an oil change. Maybe when they

00:18:44.130 --> 00:18:46.269
took the filter out, they spilled a bunch or,

00:18:46.269 --> 00:18:49.950
you know, something like that. Well, last night

00:18:49.950 --> 00:18:53.029
at 930, I get a phone call and my little brother's

00:18:53.029 --> 00:18:57.089
like, hey, I'm at I'm on Apple and I have absolutely

00:18:57.089 --> 00:19:01.849
no oil in my truck. And I was like, didn't you

00:19:01.849 --> 00:19:03.690
just get an oil change? And he's like, yeah.

00:19:04.410 --> 00:19:06.950
So I drove out there with everything we needed

00:19:06.950 --> 00:19:10.940
to fix it. I brought a filter. Uh, oil, obviously

00:19:10.940 --> 00:19:13.220
just figured that they did something wrong in

00:19:13.220 --> 00:19:16.480
an oil change. Um, yeah. So I get there and have

00:19:16.480 --> 00:19:18.859
them start the truck up and there are micro holes

00:19:18.859 --> 00:19:21.200
through the entire filter that this oil change

00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:24.440
place put on. And it's just seeping oil out of

00:19:24.440 --> 00:19:27.940
every spot imaginable on this filter. Jesus.

00:19:28.299 --> 00:19:31.900
So. Didn't have to drain any oil out because

00:19:31.900 --> 00:19:36.380
the truck had no oil in it. So I took the filter

00:19:36.380 --> 00:19:39.859
off, put the new filter on, filled it back up,

00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:43.539
started it up. Good to go. Drove it home. He

00:19:43.539 --> 00:19:47.960
drove it to work today. So I'm assuming he made

00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:53.710
it there and back. Yeah. But I'm hoping. I told

00:19:53.710 --> 00:19:55.650
him to get a hold of that place because he deserves

00:19:55.650 --> 00:19:57.990
a refund, at least an oil change refund. Yeah,

00:19:58.029 --> 00:20:00.349
I was going to say, I don't know if anybody did,

00:20:00.490 --> 00:20:02.789
but get some video of it happening. It was like,

00:20:02.910 --> 00:20:06.109
that's ridiculous. Yeah, dude, it was fucking

00:20:06.109 --> 00:20:09.009
wild. Oil changes dodge issues like that like

00:20:09.009 --> 00:20:13.410
crazy. I remember when I had my Baja, they overfilled

00:20:13.410 --> 00:20:17.710
me and didn't ask me. It took 5 .30, and they

00:20:17.710 --> 00:20:21.190
put 10 .30 in it. And then, of course, again,

00:20:21.309 --> 00:20:24.359
overfilled me. And all of a sudden, my head gaskets

00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:28.740
went out quickly after that. And I called them

00:20:28.740 --> 00:20:30.759
about it, and they were like, oh, you probably

00:20:30.759 --> 00:20:32.920
just had a bunch of sludge buildup. And I'm like,

00:20:32.940 --> 00:20:35.900
that's not how that works. Like, I'm not stupid.

00:20:36.700 --> 00:20:38.759
And they're like, well, you know, with high mileage,

00:20:38.859 --> 00:20:41.380
we typically put like 1030 in it. And I said,

00:20:41.500 --> 00:20:46.680
yeah, you didn't ask. So you just did. So I'm

00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:50.299
not okay with that. Right. Those places get away

00:20:50.299 --> 00:20:53.819
with that shit. Like, crazy. That was Vans in

00:20:53.819 --> 00:20:59.960
Fremont. Before they switched people. I don't

00:20:59.960 --> 00:21:02.119
think they exist anymore. This one's the one

00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:05.220
in Nuevo. The sketchy one by the car wash. I

00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:08.099
don't know why he goes there. Whoa. That one?

00:21:08.200 --> 00:21:10.259
The one with the derby car in the last bay of

00:21:10.259 --> 00:21:13.480
the car wash? Yeah, that's right. Yeah, I wouldn't

00:21:13.480 --> 00:21:16.279
go there just on that. I asked him, like, Devin,

00:21:16.339 --> 00:21:18.019
why did you go there? And he's like, I always

00:21:18.019 --> 00:21:21.609
go there. I'm like, why not just do it in, like,

00:21:21.730 --> 00:21:25.230
Alex's yard? It takes me, like, five minutes

00:21:25.230 --> 00:21:28.490
to do an oil change on those trucks. Even less

00:21:28.490 --> 00:21:30.730
for me. I just put a bottle under the, because

00:21:30.730 --> 00:21:32.990
I can do the filter right up on the, I don't

00:21:32.990 --> 00:21:35.349
know if it's the same for you guys, but super

00:21:35.349 --> 00:21:40.630
easy. Mine's right on top. Love that. Yeah. I

00:21:40.630 --> 00:21:43.950
do, too. So I'm hoping they at least give him

00:21:43.950 --> 00:21:47.109
a refund, because that's bullshit. They'll tell

00:21:47.109 --> 00:21:49.940
him it's his fault somehow. You probably hit

00:21:49.940 --> 00:21:51.980
some gravel and threw a bunch of little micro

00:21:51.980 --> 00:21:54.599
holes in the filter. Like, you'll figure something

00:21:54.599 --> 00:21:59.619
out. Almost as bad as insurance companies. Oh,

00:21:59.660 --> 00:22:02.960
don't even get me fucking started on them fucking

00:22:02.960 --> 00:22:08.400
jokesters. Yeah, I just... If I had the one,

00:22:08.500 --> 00:22:12.140
if I had that gauntlet, man, the infinity gauntlet,

00:22:12.400 --> 00:22:17.099
it'd be every insurance salesman and lawyer just...

00:22:18.299 --> 00:22:22.319
Bye. I just want insurance to be illegal. Car

00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:24.940
insurance is bullshit. And side -by -side drivers,

00:22:25.059 --> 00:22:28.460
maybe. No, okay, there's some side -by -side

00:22:28.460 --> 00:22:31.099
drivers that aren't bad. I daily drive a side

00:22:31.099 --> 00:22:34.200
-by -side, so... Nah, the ones that do it on

00:22:34.200 --> 00:22:37.819
the trails. Yeah, I don't do that shit. See ya.

00:22:38.619 --> 00:22:40.880
Mine only goes 20 miles an hour. That would be

00:22:40.880 --> 00:22:44.339
a god -awful experience. Yeah, we went down some

00:22:44.339 --> 00:22:48.390
trails, did like a night ride. and you could

00:22:48.390 --> 00:22:50.490
see spots of the side -by -side. These were tight

00:22:50.490 --> 00:22:52.950
trails, and you could see where these guys just

00:22:52.950 --> 00:22:55.509
hit the fucking pedal at every corner. You could

00:22:55.509 --> 00:22:57.910
see where the dirt was spun out. I'm like, I'm

00:22:57.910 --> 00:23:00.950
glad we did this at night, because we would have

00:23:00.950 --> 00:23:05.650
definitely hit someone head -on. They're fucking

00:23:05.650 --> 00:23:09.829
crazy up there. They were everywhere. I mean,

00:23:09.849 --> 00:23:12.230
that's like one of the main transportations up

00:23:12.230 --> 00:23:15.869
there. Oh, well, yeah, these were like the...

00:23:16.460 --> 00:23:18.279
The ones you could tell were like trailer to

00:23:18.279 --> 00:23:20.819
get up there, like the razors and stuff. They

00:23:20.819 --> 00:23:24.559
weren't like the old mules. No, I know that,

00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:27.579
but even those are like how they get around up

00:23:27.579 --> 00:23:32.059
there. Yeah. They still all have to go bye -bye.

00:23:35.319 --> 00:23:42.039
No more benefit of the doubt anymore. You sound

00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:45.500
like a very mean person right now because I...

00:23:46.629 --> 00:23:52.089
I enjoy my side -by -side. Yeah, but I don't

00:23:52.089 --> 00:23:54.069
know. It's good for some things. I use it for

00:23:54.069 --> 00:23:56.089
bumming around the farm, and it's great for that.

00:23:56.509 --> 00:24:00.509
Yeah, keep them in your property. Keep them off

00:24:00.509 --> 00:24:03.650
the trails. I also want to get one to daily drive

00:24:03.650 --> 00:24:05.549
so I don't have to pay car insurance because

00:24:05.549 --> 00:24:10.890
car insurance is the devil. I can't dispute that.

00:24:11.930 --> 00:24:14.740
Michigan car insurance especially. Oh, dude,

00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:16.759
it's terrible. If I want a second car, I have

00:24:16.759 --> 00:24:18.720
to basically take out a house payment to pay

00:24:18.720 --> 00:24:23.380
car insurance. Yeah. I'm enjoying our nice $500

00:24:23.380 --> 00:24:28.900
a month car insurance. Yeah, mine's $330 for

00:24:28.900 --> 00:24:33.380
just the 4Runner. Like, good lord, dude. Yeah,

00:24:33.420 --> 00:24:36.799
you'd think... My new one's $200. Mine's like,

00:24:36.819 --> 00:24:40.279
what, 17 years old? My car? And you want me to

00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:42.960
have, I mean, the crazy amount of car insurance

00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:45.180
I have in my truck for a 17 -year -old vehicle.

00:24:45.519 --> 00:24:48.500
You think your car being 17 is a problem? Yours

00:24:48.500 --> 00:24:55.900
is what, like 25? I mean, it's a 98, so I can't

00:24:55.900 --> 00:24:58.319
even do that math in my head. I can't even do

00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:00.920
that math. It's old. It's an old truck, and they

00:25:00.920 --> 00:25:05.240
want $330 a month. And, like, I get it. I pay

00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:09.559
for full coverage, but it's not. i've got like

00:25:09.559 --> 00:25:12.660
a thousand dollar uh deductible like it's not

00:25:12.660 --> 00:25:16.440
a low deductible and it's still 330 a month what

00:25:16.440 --> 00:25:18.640
the fuck and you know what the thing is is like

00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:22.420
with trucks like that like you don't you don't

00:25:22.420 --> 00:25:24.680
go to insurance for every little claim every

00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:27.599
little hit you just fix it so it's like the only

00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:29.720
time that we're going to insurance is that one

00:25:29.720 --> 00:25:33.200
time where it's fucking totaled and there's no

00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:36.440
fixing it and it's like that happens extremely

00:25:36.440 --> 00:25:42.039
rarely like yeah once every you know what i don't

00:25:42.039 --> 00:25:43.460
know even what you guys would say but i'd say

00:25:43.460 --> 00:25:47.079
once every five years or so if that right right

00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:50.119
yeah it's not a common occurrence they're getting

00:25:50.119 --> 00:25:54.259
their money out of it for sure bullshit but i

00:25:54.259 --> 00:25:55.880
don't want to take full coverage off because

00:25:55.880 --> 00:25:57.880
the minute i do some asshole is gonna fucking

00:25:57.880 --> 00:26:02.200
rear end me full speed total my truck out yep

00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:05.619
he'll be driving like a tacoma And he's going

00:26:05.619 --> 00:26:08.559
to have no insurance. It's not mine, Tacoma.

00:26:08.700 --> 00:26:11.880
It's my brother's. I didn't know. And he'll have

00:26:11.880 --> 00:26:16.880
no insurance on it, so I'll be footing the bill.

00:26:19.079 --> 00:26:23.440
Probably be an FJ just trying to get his kid

00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:26.559
to sit back in his seat and yelling at his wife

00:26:26.559 --> 00:26:29.240
and slapping her and shit. Yep, with the old

00:26:29.240 --> 00:26:33.920
wife beater on. Yeah. He'll have a barbecue stain

00:26:33.920 --> 00:26:39.200
right off to the side a little bit. If he's got

00:26:39.200 --> 00:26:44.319
an FJ, he doesn't have barbecue money. He's poor.

00:26:44.460 --> 00:26:49.000
All right, well, that about wraps up our wrap.

00:26:49.660 --> 00:26:53.220
Wrapping up that wrap. We'll sprinkle a little

00:26:53.220 --> 00:26:55.480
bit of cheese on before we roll you guys up,

00:26:55.539 --> 00:27:00.279
