Let’s hack the hooptie… literally, lol. In this video we are going to fabricate and install a brace on the frame of the Jeep Comanche aka Project Comancheep.
Big props to you for actually designing and building your own stuff. Too many “off-road” people here have a shop install they’re bolt on kits and call it a “build”.
If I recall the WJ has a "uni-frame" Maybe you can steal that name for the Comancheap. Excellent video. Lots of great tips. Eventually I'd like to build a tube chassis or heavily modify something to this extent. Looks like a fun challenge
awesome video. may want to think about attaching that tube to your exocage to create a triangle as we all know triangles are one of the strongest shape in roll cage configuration. keep up the great videos
When you shut your Oxy off you should turn off the Acetylene first then your Oxygen then you wouldn’t have a flame to snuff out and wouldn’t have to worry about a flash back of any sort
I ran tubes from the front frame, up along my inner fender, and through the firewall to tie into my internal cage. I have an engine cross bar and two supports coming down. My front ORI mounts tie into these tubes and there is no perceivable flex in my frame. I'd show you a picture, but only have some on Instagram.
I would run a tube from the firewall along the inside of the fender and down to the front like you mentioned, that way it'll give the fender some strength when it rubs something.
