Really impressed with both your Driving skills and the performance of this white Cherokee... You have proven to be able to build and run a Cheap Cherokee and have a great adventure to boot... Thanks for all the filming and the excitement...
I have enjoyed this series and I can't wait to see how these rigs stack up against each other in Moab. I will say that I am partial to the XJ since I am an XJ owner.
Went to Moab with a bone stock 2 dr JK sport model and Moab rim was my first trail. That cliff scared the hell outta me coming from the flat lands of Oklahoma.
Another awesome video. Im glad you chose the hard line. I would say tie on the one but Unfortunately a few extra points to beepin jeep for throttling through that coming down and not rolling. Keep them coming this is great stuff!!
Howdy ,Matts, you guys did well, pretty much even on your driving .but ,I think a Flat tip screw driver is worth 1 point, and a philleps tip is worth 2 points.
Bleepin jeep dude that keep lolled like it did it a little more gracefully all the way up till the end I mean I’ve been watching busted knuckle for some years but I’m sorry to say bleepin jeep had it
Moab rim is one of my all time favorite trails and I have been jeeping for almost 30 years. There’s also a short side trail at the top that takes you to a hiking trail if you want to make a full day out of it. Then stop at the brewery for dinner and life is perfect!
I think you are both winners BUT, I would have to lean toward Busted Knuckle for the narrow win. OH!!!! .... that gift card would go a long way toward my '99 Tahoe build.
another awesome video, loving this season as I embark on another build with my zj. maybe should have bought an xj LOL. keep beating on these things im waiting impatiently for someone to win haha
@@BustedKnuckleVideo gotcha, just seen the videos of the lion back. The pucker factor of watching it! LOL I know i wouldnt do it, but it looks awesome when someone else does. I didnt know they closed it, probably a good idea thou.
@Busted Knuckle Films I want to know at what angle the shocks should be in the front and rear suspension. And if the best position is vertical, then why are shocks at an angle in the rock bouncers?

Saw Matt's video on this the other day. If the challenge was based in video amd editing quality, you would be winning by miles! Your vids are way better! On a side note, thoughts on the lincoln locker and lunchbox locker? Next thing that needs to happen to my XJ...
I appreciate that, we both have our own style. For an off road only rig the welded rear and lunchbox locker front is perfect. For anything else I'd throw a lunchbox locker in the rear as well.
In my home town 90% of our citizens own a car with a BIG worth of 2000/5000 giver take. My brother who has a class 1 licence and drives a Fat truck He makes 20 times more per hour he owns a $ 70’000 dodge. I own a rusted 2000dollar RV 👊😀 just like every body else.
This has been a fun series. No definite winner. This was a don't fall off the cliff day. Thanks Mat. 💪😎👍
More to come! Driving back down that cliff side was sketchy for sure!

Wow, thank you!
I just love watching you guys off-roading with those budget jeeps! Please just keep making videos on them!!!!!!!!
More to come!
Some serious big brass ones!!! Nice skills too
It's easy when you don't have much money in your rig
I have enjoyed this series and I can't wait to see how these rigs stack up against each other in Moab. I will say that I am partial to the XJ since I am an XJ owner.
its was an epic adventure. Stay tuned!
Yeah both Jeeps have done really well...
It is amazing what these little Jeeps can do!
I'm gonna need a Pull-A-Part gift card to get another seat, after that last downhill section, mine is a little shitwrecked!
you are entered! HA
Do you need some new pants too? 🤣
Glad you made scary.. Good Job!
Haha!😂
TMI Matt, but you made it look like you was a badass! LOL
I've ran entire business buying parts from pull a part for work being done in my shop....I thank pull a part alot
Right on
Went to Moab with a bone stock 2 dr JK sport model and Moab rim was my first trail. That cliff scared the hell outta me coming from the flat lands of Oklahoma.
I bet that was super sketchy
Seriously impressed. I’ve had a $5000 Cherokee that never saw half that action!! Sweet video guys
we have been surprised at how capable they are
Another awesome video. Im glad you chose the hard line. I would say tie on the one but Unfortunately a few extra points to beepin jeep for throttling through that coming down and not rolling. Keep them coming this is great stuff!!
Great point!
Awesome video! This proves that most of us can build a a truck that's Capable of doing real hard trails even at Moab!!
Absolutely!

You two did very well! Love this kind of challenge!! and this 5k rigs are underrated !! they are true off road machines!!!! Keep up!!!
Thank you! Will do!
Great job ... cherokees = badass .. I'm a xj man myself but can't call winner yet. Cant wait to see more
the next 2 episodes are tougher trails
Epic wheeling. Amazing to see what these cheep Jeeps on 35s are capable of!!! 🤘
they amazed us on this trip for sure!
Very cool series. XJ is my pick.
Thanks!
WOW, these Jeeps just keep impressing us all! Thanks guys this series of vids are AWESOME!!!! 😎
Glad you like them!
Great video as always!! Seems like both rigs are very equal. Can’t wait to see the next two.
Coming soon!
Howdy ,Matts, you guys did well, pretty much even on your driving .but ,I think a Flat tip screw driver is worth 1 point, and a philleps tip is worth 2 points.
LOL, using the tool sponsors tools to work on your heep definitely gets bonus points.
@@BustedKnuckleVideo you ,hav'to make those points how every you can. right.
Exactly
Both Jeeps are amazing
they did so well
Great driving skills there!! Great video!!
Thank you 👍
Bleepin jeep dude that keep lolled like it did it a little more gracefully all the way up till the end I mean I’ve been watching busted knuckle for some years but I’m sorry to say bleepin jeep had it
I don't know did you see the line I did on Z turn?
Lolol
nice and very NICE driving!! uuuh I had fever...... XJ fever
They are Awesome.
Between the cheap Jeeps and the videos of the Cherokee beat downs at RBD, you got me researching Cherokees like I need one. Lol
they make awesome budget wheelers
Both Jeep’s worked great, love this challenge because anyone could build those.
Right on!
Moab rim is one of my all time favorite trails and I have been jeeping for almost 30 years. There’s also a short side trail at the top that takes you to a hiking trail if you want to make a full day out of it. Then stop at the brewery for dinner and life is perfect!
it is one of my favorites as well
That was awesome XJ & ZJ the BROTHERS IN LAW TRAILING ON MOAB. KEEP IT UP AND EXCITING FOR PART 2.
the next two are harder trails so get ready
@@BustedKnuckleVideo Always ready can't wait looking forward to watch them.
we are excited for everyone to see them. Day 3 was a hoot!
I was saving that “Rustomod” for an upcoming project. I’m gonna have to keep you on a shorter leash 🧐
no one noticed.....
Cool cars in a mega cool area. That must have been a lot of fun !
It was!
If the pucker factor is what you need to win this section I'd say Matt won by a skidmark in his draws... Stay safe guys... have a great day...
he made things interesting that is for sure
Freaking awesome video! Awesome rigs doing awesome things. Can't wait to get back to Moab for the EJS 2021
Can't wait!
Good to see these rigs holding up to the challenge!
For sure!
That XJ is truly a budget beast!!
doesnt take much to make them super capable off road
Good fun and great intertainment. Wish I was there.
Thanks we had a blast!
I think you are both winners BUT, I would have to lean toward Busted Knuckle for the narrow win. OH!!!! .... that gift card would go a long way toward my '99 Tahoe build.
Heck yeah!
You guys are so awesome. Keep free wheelin ma dudes!!!
We will!
another awesome video, loving this season as I embark on another build with my zj. maybe should have bought an xj LOL. keep beating on these things im waiting impatiently for someone to win haha
Right on!
Awesome wheeling guys!
Thanks! 👍
This was the best one yet. Why am I spending so much money on my TJ? Lol
I asked myself the same thing about my JKU...
I SAY HANDS DOWN FOR SURE MATT IS THE WIN OF THIS ONE!!
Matt and the Cherokee
Haha 😂 for sure
ZJ Bleep won.. just had little mis hap at end..
Tie it is.
Awesome episode. Back in the day well built xj’s climbed like animals.
they are so capable
Good Job Loved the Video!!!
Glad you enjoyed it
If your there, you have to do lions back right?
It has been closed for years
@@BustedKnuckleVideo hell I didnt know. Seen many youtube videos of that. Looks awesome
you can do little lions back
@@BustedKnuckleVideo gotcha, just seen the videos of the lion back. The pucker factor of watching it! LOL I know i wouldnt do it, but it looks awesome when someone else does. I didnt know they closed it, probably a good idea thou.
You guys have the best jobs!
The good lord has blessed us beyond measure no doubt about it.
Nice job Matt's. I love to see what an XJ can do. I hope to make it to Moab soon. A gift card would help. lol
Moab is awesome.
@@BustedKnuckleVideo i have made plans to go a few times and it just hasn't worked out yet. :(
U guys should try out red cone in Colorado (for that pucker effect)
might do that
Great climbing, better coming down!
Yes indeed!
I’d give it to bleepy for 2 reasons. One, he made that z turn climb look easy. Two, that save coming down was smooth.
It's easy to make an obstacle look easy once someone shows you the line...
Always fun to watch
always a good time wheeling with the BleepinJeep guys
It was definitely a tie. I cant let myself vote against an XJ but I still think Bleepy took harder lines more gracefully.
its easy to take the harder lines easier when you go second
Dude my dad just gave me his his 99' XJ!!! I'm in bartow County i need to come see you guys to get into this bad ass sport!!!!!
that'll make a great build platform
Well thanks to this series I want a Cherokee!
the used market for these has went up because of us I have no doubt
Looks like a tie! Them some tough Cherokees
just wait until you see the next two episodes
so impressed with the little xj
it has really impressed me
These JEEPs are awesome
they work so well
Wished i lived close to trails like that 😁👍
You and me both 24hrs is a long drive.
So how do we enter to win prizes i dig both rigs and wish i had half the knowledge of building rigs as you all do.
just comment on the videos and be a subscriber
A Lot!!👌👌👍🔥💯!! YesSiRr!!😎😁😊!! KRazy feLLaz!!
You already know!
2:47 Thanks for that!
I love the Rock Cam Angle!
@Busted Knuckle Films I want to know at what angle the shocks should be in the front and rear suspension. And if the best position is vertical, then why are shocks at an angle in the rock bouncers?
Vertical is best. Most rock bouncers don’t take that into account.
@@BustedKnuckleVideo so i can positio my shock at a slight angle?
Hey Jake,can you explain about shock position in rock bouncer,thank you!
what do you want to know? Shocks are best when ran vertical.
@@BustedKnuckleVideo I want to know at what angle the shocks should be in the front and rear suspension. And if the best position is vertical, then why are shocks at an angle in the rock bouncers?
LOVE the stretched YJ...wanting to do this to my TJ someday...care to do a fan build hahaha...but seriously, are you?
just wait until you see what happens to it on the next episode....
It's a darn fortunate thing that Bleepy was wearing his brown pants for the downhill!
True!
So sweet good content
Thank you so much
White jeep
FTW
@@BustedKnuckleVideo I've had both kind of jeeps honest I go with the white one
They are awesome.
awesome
it was a good time for sure.
Great video! Keep the videos coming. Like and comment!!
Thanks! Will do!
I have both xj and zj and so far I’m a zj fanboy now
They are nice but it is hard to beat an XJ.
@@BustedKnuckleVideo no doubt xj made a name for a reason
“Race LJ” 🤣
I mean it has Coilovers?
@@BustedKnuckleVideo gotta give the YJ roots of it love. YJ6 or YJUnlimited 😉 🤘🏻
I get it, you had just met me and didn’t realize it was just a YJ. Thanks for adding me to your content. I had a blast wheeling with you guys.
tooshay
@@BustedKnuckleVideo just giving you a hard time. Great video! 👍🏻
Do You remember the Gear Ratio in the Diffs?
Factory
Some drivers didn't get the memo about WD40 Anti-Squeek!😄😜
For Real!
Welcome to Utah. Our states full of $5000 rigs tearing it up
the land of traction
dam ,that is way I love my ZJ
wheeling in comfort
@@BustedKnuckleVideo if you guys ever come to AZ will like to meet you guys be safe
We would like to come wheel AZ for sure. Only been there once.
did y'all hit that sand hill in 4HI or LO?!
Lo FO SHO
Limita bello la gran cherokee
Is that samurai propane powered?
sure is
I have to say that throttle out that Matt pulled coming out was epic.
This round goes to #bleepinjeep
he did good for sure, but that was a bad line
The only reason Bleepin won this round is the Throttle out Pucker factor on that last obstacle coming down...
bad line choice but it made for good video!
Ask David uptain about that sketchy spot coming down moab rim
ha he almost roll there?
@@BustedKnuckleVideo he did. Hit the throttle to save it. Luckily it rolled to the left and not right.
yikes
Can you get those buggies a few cans of WD40 to stop the squeaking.
The down part is why I decided not to try Moab rim in a 7klb fullsize bronco.
Next time I will throw a can in the jeep for Colt
The xj has a 4 or 6 inch lift?
4.5 Rusty's here is the build video- th-cam.com/video/UqWjqsd9t9A/w-d-xo.html
@@BustedKnuckleVideo awesome! Thanks!
What tires are on the chubby chaser
sticky mickeys Baja Pro
I think Mat won :) Both Mat's :D
So a Tie.
Just remember folks for $5000 you too can have rigs just like these, anyone of these 😂
which would you choose?
Saw Matt's video on this the other day. If the challenge was based in video amd editing quality, you would be winning by miles! Your vids are way better!
On a side note, thoughts on the lincoln locker and lunchbox locker? Next thing that needs to happen to my XJ...
I appreciate that, we both have our own style. For an off road only rig the welded rear and lunchbox locker front is perfect. For anything else I'd throw a lunchbox locker in the rear as well.
That "one" corner hanging over the road I call
"Shit yerself corner" goin down.
JUST
KEEP
LEFT
yeah its sketchy for sure
The white truck, won both times, he's just a better skilled driver period, didn't matter the truck.
TRUTH!
How did you snwak in RCV shaft? at 1200 plus for a dana 30, how is it within Budget. Bleeping Jeep seem legit, but I think you maybe cheated lol
They were returns so they cut me a deal
What year is the XJ?.. anyone that knows?
1997
you still stuck three wheelin?
no we got it welded back up good
I want to see the cheep jeep (attempt) something that the big offroaders can do, like something you would expect the cheep jeep to fail at
like the buggy line on Z turn? LOL
I hate it when I have to lower the volume when music plays then turn it back up to hear what your saying....
not sure why it would sound like that, sounds fine on my end
Well just bought a cherokee lol
good call
Everyone that was at RBD knows a cherokee can take some abuse
Truth
At least if you do roll off a cliff your only out of a 5 grand rig
If you survive!
@@BustedKnuckleVideo well hey at least ill only be 5 grand less rich in my grave rather that 15 grand 😂😂😂
I guess you are right
