Special thanks to everyone who helped us make this build come together!

Steph's tattoo sleeve is sick! I'm guessing some Mayan inspiration?
isn't the liquid gasket sealer supposed to go on the inside of the screw holes on the transfer case
Wish you could put a parts list with links in the description
the content is decent but this video breaks multiple youtube rules. Sad how much donut has declined. What a disappointing video
that woman mechanic is hottttt…whats her name
I have a '96 Hilux Surf in the States and I'm in love 🥰

I don’t dislike the new guy, it’s just not James );
Like the project but why is it so gEY? Can’t watch
I'm tired of Donut constantly switching hosts, what's the work environment in there? Is the management full of Audi drivers?
update?
Sooo i guess we are never learning anything about that 997 with a donut wang on it?
feel like i used to watch these videos and learn something. something just feels different and off.
When you rrbuilt the ttansfere, I hope you were aware yhere are certain parts that have to be rrfittrf a certain way threy have to be fitted for oil gallies to line up. Onecpart has a very small hole which is easy to miss, hope you are well aware, otherwise you srr getting towef home.
Buy a 4×4 first of all
Love this dude))
what a waste of time the car didn't even work at the end of the video?!…
Now this is the donut i love
i want to start working on my own cars but this looks fucking insane. i get frustrated changing my cabin filter or cap and rotor lmfao
Viscous couplers are unlikely to fail when they are used regularly. If you’re working on one that’s seized it’s likely the truck is not spent too much time off road.
“…..Now watch me hit this drive” 😂😂😂
Dude seriously stop refering to or calling SPORT UTITLITY VEHICLES FREAKING CARS!!!!! Look I get it you're all using the word car to describe everything as an in general usage for everything with a freaking motor and wheels, but everything built and designed with a motor transmission and diffs and wheels that touch the damn ground has its own designation!!!! 1st is your favorite word their are cars everything from the model T to modern day Focuses and Nissan Sentra's but those are actual cars y'all weirdos but here I go again laying this crap out for the cheap seats and those of us who road the short bus to school. Their are pickup trucks, vans and SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES OR SUV's for short, and what this particular motor vehicle is that's being worked on in this video is the latter which happens to be the SPORT UTILITY VEHICLE!!!!!! Not a car!!!!!
Was there ever a follow-up to why the 4WD wasn't engaging?
This was a fun video to watch, but literally had nothing to do with making a vehicle last 1,000,000 miles.
This channel is foul for showing a jeep marlin crawl.
anything for that tax right off lmao
So that didn't age well lol
Update: it lasted 1k miles😂😂🤙🤙
20:26 "a grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain't" lol
oh man, seems expensive! I need one BIG ride, we are a family of 6 + Dog and stuff.
@21:29 Did you actually clean the entire axle tube!? It kinda of implies your just saying its clean only as far as your fingers go…
@12:14, wh do people always put RTV on the OUTSIDE of bolt holes!? It should be on the INSIDE!!!! comon man!!!
