Another great video Matt. I often feel bad for you at times cause you're working on this stuff by yourself. I go through the same thing because i have no one to help me with my jeep. Please be careful and keep up the great work. Cant wait to see the comancheap finished.
I agree with the everyone, bring it back! "None of the boring stuff" is always true with your videos! I do commend you tho. You do ALOT of work by yourself on the projects and then with all the video editing as well, leaves little time to spend with your family and to sleep. It's awesome that you kids like to wheel with you though. I know it's awesome for me that mine enjoy it as much as I do!
roxas the rogue He just posted something on TH-cam about meeting with as many subscribers as possible this year. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not a die hard fan or anything. Just enjoy watching his vids. & lol yeah the way he pronounces water is very weird. But he is great at explaining/showing/details in his vids.
Matt, I dream of the day I get have a shop as glorious as yours and projects as cool as the Comanchee. Keep these videos coming I am living vicariously through you...
You did the same smile from the Cheap Jeep intro after saying that you hot 10 gallons of fuel from the tank. Classic. Bring back the old saying for sure.
Bring it back, I just found your channel a few weeks ago when I bought my second Jeep. This one's a 2000 XJ, the last one I had was a 97 XJ but in allot worst shape. Love the channel and wish I'd found it years ago!
Something you may or may not have thought of in your shop is building a cinder block covey outside of your shop for you air compressor. Best thing for my ears I ever did.
We saw you at the Shell station in Parachute Co. today. Stopped to check the Comanche out. Waited a little for ya to come out. But didn't go in. Didn't want to seem too much like a stocker. lol We were in the lifted old squarebody crew cab chevy.
I know it costs, but you should do a series where you build a new shop. You can probably build one for about $5 or $6K. We all know you definitely need one. (with a lift!)
I realize this video was made a while back, but seems like it would be a good investment to get a set of crappy used wheels and tires. Some that are close to stock size to move the jeep and axels around on. I’m only running a 35” tire right now but putting the tiny original tires back on to work on it, makes a huge difference.
I was like repeatedly talking to the phone loudly saying air down your tires bro like did the fronts as if you were actually going to hear me.😂🤣 And then you did. Good job bud.
Its amazing how much you get done all by yourself. Also scary as shit dude! Though I guess if you ever do get crushed under one of these setups, then we won't be seeing that video or anymore. Don't get crushed and please keep these videos coming to us! Both my son and I have learned so much from your videos in tackling our own XJ project. Thanks!
Thanks for my youtube fix tonight Matt. I'm starting a 2006 F350 build ( cab swap, bed swap, total rebuild ). I keep thinking of videoing the project but I'm no editor. I'm still on the fence and frankly maybe too old ! Keep up the good work.
I was watching a couple of the old videos and was thinking "hey i miss this intro" but before i started re-watching videos i didnt realize that i missed it.
I think you could benefit from a hi-lift. Maybe on the trails, but definitely in the shop. Jack/spreader/clamp/puller.... I know I have. Cheap even if you don't buy one from craigslist.
yeah! work video! I wonder if you'll ever build a bigger garage with a lift maybe? Not that you need it, it's fun to watch you solve problems when space is tight. That's how most of us are working on our rigs any who. Great work Matt
Put a nut, flush with the bolt threads before hammering the hell out of the bolt. It will save the threads on the bolt. Unless you don't need the bolt any more. I save ever nut and bolt. Lol
David Ferrell sure didn't. Been watching BJ since before Tim n Tyler joined. Cheap Jeep was too cheap and too rushed. I'd love to see a build that takes a more moderate approach. Obviously, a ZJ is on my personal list, like a TJ. Someday....
Sorry, couldn't help but bust a gut when you pointed out you had run into the garage door above while trying to get the shocks out. All too familiar here... ;-) Oh, and bring back the "none of the boring stuff"!
It's ok to do sketchy things as long as you KNOW there sketchy. Dana 60s weigh in at 600 lbs plus all the extra goodies. Oh and Matt, I think you should build a rat rod out of that CJ carcass.
.... put a 2.5L engine in the CJ. Actually if you did that you would have plenty of space to boost it, maybe run 30lbs of boost on it, but then you'd need a stout small engine designed to handle that kind of load.
Family members have been calling my Comanche "The Heep" since I bought it, in 1990. "J" in Spanish is pronounced like an "H". Caught a lot of flak back then; but, out of ALL of the vehicles around back then, only the Heep remains.
Do you guys still take applications for possible new BleepinJeep members? Project's looking good man, are you planning to sell this one soon after completion like the Grand Cheap and Hope Floats?
What are you doing with what's left of the CJ after all this? You should restore it close to stock (with tires a little bigger than stock of course) and still see what kind of wheeling it can do!
I thought you were gonna loose that tub right off of the jack stands! Were you scared at any point that may have happened? Back when I lifted my JK it was a similar situation lol.
Got a question Matt. Where can i get the bleepinjeep sticker i see on your jeep and the other guys? I cant find it on your store and really want one to put on my xj. Gotta show my love and support for your channel. Thanks.
hey matt can you do a video on polyurethane bushings for the front axel? I've looked and looked and haven't found any decent videos showing how to correctly install them. All the companies that provide these bushing kits have absolutely horrible installation instructions. Please and thank you
Why was the front of the cj leaf sprung but the back was coil overs? Does that do something special that all coilovers wouldnt or was that something the last owner just hadnt done yet?
BRING IT BACK MATT. MOTORTREND DECIDED NOSEDIVE OFF A CLIFF SO ALL I HAVE YOU, CHRIS FIX, TAVARISH AND ADAM LZ TO KEEP MY FIX GOING
don't forget MCM as well
Ya, they are going to kill Roadkill. It's still free though, as of March 21, 2018 @ 5:50EDT.
You should be watching b is for build it's a great channel also
I paid for motor tend cause I like a few of their shows not just road kill and dirt everyday so I didn't even know about this till yesterday.
its still free as long as you dont mind adds, like normal tv, stop complaining
Yay on bringin it back. Everything off-road, none of the boring stuff...its what's for dinner!
i realize Im kinda off topic but do anyone know a good website to watch newly released tv shows online ?
@Toby Collin Flixportal :P
@Kashton Emiliano thank you, I signed up and it seems to work =) I appreciate it !
@Toby Collin You are welcome :D
13:37 Ahh! you *scared* me with that fully extended jack stand/wood block set up haha...glad u got er done tho! 🤠👍
Me too! That stuff makes me nervous. I once suspended a YJ tub from the garage ceiling to get the frame out. I was nervous as hell.
Another great video Matt. I often feel bad for you at times cause you're working on this stuff by yourself. I go through the same thing because i have no one to help me with my jeep. Please be careful and keep up the great work. Cant wait to see the comancheap finished.

you are the only good car youtuber, everyone else is too mainstream. pleases bring it back too
roxas the rogue Have you ever watched ChrisFix? He's awesome.
South Main Auto is a good one too
roxas the rogue Why do you say that?
Chips Ahoi for one. He doesnt care about his viewers he is milking youtube for money and he cant say water?
roxas the rogue He just posted something on TH-cam about meeting with as many subscribers as possible this year. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not a die hard fan or anything.

This rig is gonna be so badass. Keep up the great work Matt, I can’t wait to see this thing crawl!
Matt, I can't wait to see this thing once it is done. The Cheep Jeep series was awesome, but I am even more hooked to this build.
I feel like a giant bald eagle every time I hear the intro
Matt, I dream of the day I get have a shop as glorious as yours and projects as cool as the Comanchee. Keep these videos coming I am living vicariously through you...
Watching the build from the start, big thumbs up...great stuff....quit chucking my wood!
None of the boring stuff! I love it!
You did the same smile from the Cheap Jeep intro after saying that you hot 10 gallons of fuel from the tank. Classic.
Bring back the old saying for sure.

Sorry bud, I was waiting on my wendys order...
I figured. Wish we could come down Wed. for Metal Masher. But too busy. Will be going down Friday for the Vender's show.
Was a little sketched out watching those jack stands wobble
11:09 *haha like a tuning fork* 🍴🤣
You get a lot of work done by yourself. Ingenuity saves the day. Looking forward to seeing the project continue.
I like the intro. I really like the direction this channel has taken.
Thanks for all the Moab videos. I throughly enjoyed them and learned a bit of history. Thanks again guys
I know it costs, but you should do a series where you build a new shop. You can probably build one for about $5 or $6K. We all know you definitely need one. (with a lift!)
if only I had the flat land!
I realize this video was made a while back, but seems like it would be a good investment to get a set of crappy used wheels and tires. Some that are close to stock size to move the jeep and axels around on. I’m only running a 35” tire right now but putting the tiny original tires back on to work on it, makes a huge difference.
now you know why they are called one tons lol! nice video man
Bring it back! Helps make the channel seem more professional
Yes bring it back. I need the reminder of where I can get my muffler bearings too
I admire your moxy, Matt. Remember, Safety Third.
The Cj's have their own Gravity fields
who dislikes these videos there is no reason. i love you man :)
I honestly want to have that tagline come back:
Everything off-road, none of the boring stuff
What a juggling act for one man! Impressive
Very honest, love the comment “Safety First” great Stuff Matt
Nice... Matt tearing it down... SOLO
Content has been excellent... Keep it up.
You have the best videos !! Love the ride im on watching you work in a non creep way .jeep up the good work
oh man, just close the garage door for more room!
Carries jack stands around to the back "Safety First!" Initially puts them under it with 8" gap between frame and jack stand lol. More more more!
I was like repeatedly talking to the phone loudly saying air down your tires bro like did the fronts as if you were actually going to hear me.😂🤣 And then you did. Good job bud.
Its amazing how much you get done all by yourself. Also scary as shit dude! Though I guess if you ever do get crushed under one of these setups, then we won't be seeing that video or anymore.
Don't get crushed and please keep these videos coming to us!
Both my son and I have learned so much from your videos in tackling our own XJ project.
Thanks!
It's amazing what you can do in a small home shop. Keep up the good work, entertaining and informative .Thanks Matt 😊OlllllllO 🍁 Canada
Thanks for my youtube fix tonight Matt. I'm starting a 2006 F350 build ( cab swap, bed swap, total rebuild ). I keep thinking of videoing the project but I'm no editor. I'm still on the fence and frankly maybe too old ! Keep up the good work.
This is an awesome build, but it hurts to see you taking apart the CJ
Might not want any sparks from connecting the battery in a room full of gas fumes. I'd recommend a switch!
(I had to drain a gas tank that way myself)
After all these years I finally figured out who your voice reminds me of.... Mister Rogers...
Keep that transmission for the next crawler build. Amazing low granny gear and is very strong.
I was watching a couple of the old videos and was thinking "hey i miss this intro"
but before i started re-watching videos i didnt realize that i missed it.
Yes,bring back none of the boring stuff.What axles are those?
Dana 60's
I think you could benefit from a hi-lift. Maybe on the trails, but definitely in the shop. Jack/spreader/clamp/puller.... I know I have. Cheap even if you don't buy one from craigslist.
As soon as i get a job I’ll become a patreon! Love the videos Matt keep em coming
Pretty sure the plumbing in a house gets laid out and set before the framing. Lol its hard to route plumbing after the foundation os poured.
I vote YAY to bringing it back
Yet another great one Matt. I know you already have the Comanche running but I'm still sitting here dying to know if you ditched the leafs or not.
kept the leafs!
None of the boring stuff 👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻👌🏻👍🏻
Bring it the hell back, good sir. Bring it the hell back.
Lessons for the day: Air down the tires and remove the top links first. Thanks for another great video.
yeah! work video! I wonder if you'll ever build a bigger garage with a lift maybe? Not that you need it, it's fun to watch you solve problems when space is tight. That's how most of us are working on our rigs any who. Great work Matt
Put a nut, flush with the bolt threads before hammering the hell out of the bolt. It will save the threads on the bolt. Unless you don't need the bolt any more. I save ever nut and bolt. Lol
I skipped out on all my other subscriptions to watch this first after I got home from work
See the ZJ hidin out back there and I'm hoping you'll show how to build a capable ZJ. Show us how the ZJs are going to replace the XJs.
David Ferrell sure didn't. Been watching BJ since before Tim n Tyler joined. Cheap Jeep was too cheap and too rushed. I'd love to see a build that takes a more moderate approach. Obviously, a ZJ is on my personal list, like a TJ. Someday....
Shawn, I totally agree. Thus my plea for Matt to do a realistic build on that truck.
Well it was a capable budget friendly build, and he obviously had another orivs zj ready to start.
Xj for the win. Box boi vs round ugly boi.
Good one
You really need to hire a stuntman...Captain Kirk had one.
Sorry, couldn't help but bust a gut when you pointed out you had run into the garage door above while trying to get the shocks out. All too familiar here... ;-) Oh, and bring back the "none of the boring stuff"!
It's ok to do sketchy things as long as you KNOW there sketchy. Dana 60s weigh in at 600 lbs plus all the extra goodies. Oh and Matt, I think you should build a rat rod out of that CJ carcass.
Why not use the manual transmission from the CJ? So much more control off road.....just my opinion.
Milk Hotdog looks to be a Muncie SM-465...they have like a 6.55:1 first gear but those autos are nice to have in the sticky situations
Who thumbs down I mean really... nice work Matt
Yes bring it back !!!!
Looks like you need a high lift jack
Killing me with your metal sledge lol. Get some dead blows and some large plastic or rubber hammers.
.... put a 2.5L engine in the CJ. Actually if you did that you would have plenty of space to boost it, maybe run 30lbs of boost on it, but then you'd need a stout small engine designed to handle that kind of load.
Dude. U got any extra Jeep rearends. Lol. I need one
Hey Matt is nothing cheep about what ur doing,videos are awesome jeep up the awesome stuff.
its a heep, comanc-heep
a mispelling of heap
Family members have been calling my Comanche "The Heep" since I bought it, in 1990. "J" in Spanish is pronounced like an "H". Caught a lot of flak back then; but, out of ALL of the vehicles around back then, only the Heep remains.
I Suwannee boy you worry me to death sometimes.
Have fun but galldern it
BE SAFE ! 😂😂😂
Bring back everything off road none of the boring stuff it was your catch phrase
Yay - bring that back!
Do you guys still take applications for possible new BleepinJeep members? Project's looking good man, are you planning to sell this one soon after completion like the Grand Cheap and Hope Floats?
I keep click that thumbs up and share buttons to keep you guys in TH-cam.😳
Bring it back. Also a cool video, which you have done before, would be a pricing video. It would be cool to see
you mean a final price on this build?
.....jus like my shop , a little cramped for doin a big tire build, gotta plan every move !!!
What are you doing with what's left of the CJ after all this? You should restore it close to stock (with tires a little bigger than stock of course) and still see what kind of wheeling it can do!
see last video...
Flux capacitors!!!!!! Heck ya!!!!!!!!
Working sketchy is the only way to do it with out a hoist , team no hoist , be safe tho
Bring it Back!!!
why dident you close the door to get a few more inchs of hight for removing the shocks?
Dunno but had a good reason
Something funny
dad jokes for days
What should you do next? 350,sm465,np205
Can you make a an explanation of how to set pinion angle? Now would be a great opportunity to make one!
Ya I’ve done it try googling Bleepinjeep pinion angle
I thought you were gonna loose that tub right off of the jack stands! Were you scared at any point that may have happened? Back when I lifted my JK it was a similar situation lol.
nahh, it was pretty steady!
That's good, safety first!
Bring it back and do as you preach
what is the best/cheapest long arm.
You sir need a good set of pry bars
Can you do a write up for a zj alternator on an xj?
Got a question Matt. Where can i get the bleepinjeep sticker i see on your jeep and the other guys? I cant find it on your store and really want one to put on my xj. Gotta show my love and support for your channel. Thanks.
sorry I forgot to update the quantity, its there now!
With all the axel swaps and wheel work you do have you considered a 2 post lift? Not that expensive.
ceiling is not tall enough
hey matt can you do a video on polyurethane bushings for the front axel? I've looked and looked and haven't found any decent videos showing how to correctly install them. All the companies that provide these bushing kits have absolutely horrible installation instructions. Please and thank you
Matt I’m not gonna lie you made me nervous watching this. Also I’m ready to see the final product.
you can.. on patreon or at EJS next week!!
Hey Matt, how hard do you think making a open top and caged cherokee. Thinking about it for my next project haha
No harder than the scorpion crawler was to build😂
As Mr Ed would say, "NAAAAAAAAAYYYY!!!"
Bring it back!!!!
Yay bring it back
Mate you looks like the shermanator
Why was the front of the cj leaf sprung but the back was coil overs? Does that do something special that all coilovers wouldnt or was that something the last owner just hadnt done yet?
savagecomanche i saw that. Seems stupid. I'd link the front if i only could do one.
savagecomanche I was wondering the same thing. Seems like a weird setup.
same thinking here. I guess...you can benefit from the spool and better articulation??
You should get a forklift...lol
