Private Notes
Old body style trucks are becoming more and more popular, and today the guys are fortunate to have one in the shop; they swap in an LS engine, pick a system to control timing and fuel, and fix up a few accessories to make it look and run great again.
The Jeep Gladiator and Ford Bronco both have their pros and cons, and the guys will discuss one of the major differences; they install an important upgrade for the Gladiator's bed, before moving on to the Bronco for some modifications.
Since 1953, the Chevy Corvette has been a true American icon, and the one the guys have in the shop has been lying dormant for years. They'll show how to DIY a fresh new look to its brake calipers and add new exhaust to get it sounding like a real 'Vette again. They'll finish up fixing broken plastic pieces and doing some paint correction to bring the original paint screaming back to life.
The owners of a 2017 Camaro love to drive it hard on weekend road trips, leaving it in need of some upgrades to help it corner and grip the back roads they love so much; the guys transform the car's suspension to fully unleash its cornering power.
A Kia Spectra broke down a couple of years ago, and the owner simply hasn't had the time or money to try to fix it until today. Kevin and Willie diagnose what's wrong with the car and set about tackling those problems so they can get this great little commuter back out on the road.
Old Duramax diesels get a bad rap for being hard to work on and expensive to repair, and many folks don't like the flimsy steering on the IFS truck. However, with the right replacement parts, improved steering, turbo and a little TLC, these babies can go the distance. And that’s exactly what Willie and Kevin provide to get this truck back in shape and running better than it has in years.
A Monte Carlo SS is literally rolled into the shop, with an incomplete rolling chassis and a body that needs work. The owner wants the guys to focus on the underside first, so they mock up the engine and transmission, along with new EFI, and complete the suspension. Then they tackle the brake setup to get the chassis closer to complete.
If you're game to go overlanding, you may as well do it in high style, driving a comfortable SUV with tons of interior space. The guys work over a new 4Runner just so, instilling in its owners the confidence they seek to explore the wilderness along with their pets. They build a rear storage area from scratch and show you some tips and tricks along the way.
Willie and Kevin undertake a mission to take a Dodge Ram and make it run better, sound louder and look cooler than ever; they fix an engine tick by replacing the manifold, install a new exhaust, and give the front end a brand-new look.
Kevin and Willie conspire to transform Kevin's personal 1970 Pro Street Mustang fastback into a modern Pro Touring street and track machine. It's time to mock everything up, but where to begin? With a full Coyote engine swap, of course, including all-new drivetrain, transmission, clutch and more.
Willie B is known for having too many projects; some get pushed to the back, including his '78 Trans Am; the guys install new suspension and put the finishing touches on a somewhat-completed LS swap that hopefully will crank over.
An eye-popping green Dodge Charger serves double duty as a daily driver and weekend toy. The owner puts a lot of miles on it every day, so he wants the gas mileage of a 6-cylinder for work, and some throaty performance for play. Kevin and Willie install a cold air intake and other goodies for performance, replace some worn parts, and give it stopping power like it's never had before.
The owner of a heavily modified Jeep is in the military and out on active duty. The Jeep takes a lot of abuse and has started developing common steering problems, so the owner's buddy contacted Kevin and Willie to help him get it ready for his friend's return. They guys go through the steering and upgrade it with a heavy-duty setup that should withstand anything it encounters on the trail.
