I know it's not your car and all but you should definitely get the 135 on the lift first and start the upgrades. Seeing how excited Will was made me so hyped. We need the 135 done ASAP!
Will has such a good attitude, gotta get his 135 finished when the guy gets the lifts done, Will seems like a guy who wants to be around, We want him around.
The Jeep really just needs new seats, some wiring and some minor suspension stuff. It’s just enough of a pile that with some minor work it could be pretty good. And honestly I’d have tommy linex it, but that’s purely cosmetic
Hes got a good base if he was interested in it it would be a simple restoration job. sometimes its a pain correcting hacked together vehicles but the payoff is worth it when theyre working like they were meant to and no longer a fire hazard
@@wesleypellettieri theres a fabricator 2 doors away if ben can fix that trailer door im sure he could weld nuts back to the frame. As long as its running and the frames not bent or kinked pretty much everything is replaceable or repairable hell even if it stops running hes about to have a spare ls
@@wesleypellettieri he’s got a fab guy who works in his building, that’s something for him. I was referring to stuff ruddy could do himself shoulda made that more clear lmao
@@wesleypellettieri it is held up with a ratchet strap because the bolts aren't tightened up. The nuts on the other side of the frame are supposed to be tack welded to the frame when it's assembled at the factory to save time. The dude used the wrong bolts when putting the drop spacers in that come with a lift kit for jeeps and busted the nuts off the frame before the bolts could tighten up. It's not hard to cut the bolts off and use new nuts and bolts. The raggedy ricer Miata is just as big of a POS as that thing.
The rattle can Bedliner is PERFECT for old jeep interiors. We did my dad's YJ probably 15 years ago and it looks just as good as it did new. (Btw you're thinking of "cobbled" not "cobbered" lmao)
These 30 minute videos really make my day, I enjoy watching when im just chilling as you are the exact same as me aha, keep up the grind Rudnik we are loving the content 💙
This is soo true. It's not a difficult process. You can actually use the lift to pull the tub. You could actually go fiberglass and lighten things up quite a bit. Jeeps are nearly as simple as a lawn mower.
I'd suggest if you're going with spray bedliner then might as well do the entire shell inside and out.as for maybe replacing the motor and trans,would definitely be worth it just for the off-roading fun lol
Dude was definitely in over his head with that jeep, probably couldn't sell it if he tried. He found the perfect opportunity to dump it on someone else and actually profit from it
I’m diggin this. I only use the car wash brush on my windows and tires. Spray that brush before using every time. Also, I have an AWD element and no you cannot spray the inside of it. Despite it having a rubber floor. So much wiring is ran under it.
Honestly Chris, I would seriously contemplate painting the entire Jeep in Raptor bedliner. My buddy painted his entire Civic coupe in flat black Raptor Liner and it looked awesome. Edit: yes, they make different colors.
He dossent really sell his cars ngl only car his sold in the past 2 yrs is his ls400 stock and his Nb miata which he sold to his friend he traded truck and g37 to a dealer??
Honestly I stopped watching Chris once he moved the Florida, the content wasn’t as good in Florida I’m so stoked to see all his OG friends back this is the content I wanna see !
You have a dana35 rear axle. I've broken 2 just driving down the street. They're toothpicks with huge heavy tires on the ends rotating. Don't be dumping the clutch with that axle. The front dana30 axle is okay, since it's not the full time driving axle, they last longer. That vac delete mod is a must... I've owned 4 of these old Jeeps for 15 years. I just keep collecting them 😆
It was definitely a improvement from before I would definitely linex the entire cab inside and out it would make it look a lot better and be waterproof and super durable for offroading
Rollbar is mounted to floor at seats only back ones at inside wheel whells are not connected Gut it put in dash roll bar windows perspec windows an waterproof it inside and out with new seats + harness to bars thats insidethen its done safe enough to off road
Lopsided body could mean bad leaf springs, and you need to go over and check the suspension bushings as well which could be causing your death wobble. Another thing that could be causing vibrations is the lift, and the previous owner probably didn't install the transfer case correctly when installing the lift so the geometry is probably all out of whack; installing a slip yoke eliminator kit will fix that.
I would suggest that you find out what year Wrangler you have and what size engine it had previously, and then contact HESCO auto service cause they make wiring harnesses for Jeep 4.0 engine swaps that are plug and play. A little pricey, but worth it if you don't want any headaches and it'll clean up the clutter in the engine bay. Your Wrangle was either a carburated i-6, or a 4 banger that the previous owner swapped out for a fuel injected 4.0.
i love the vibe of the new video,s happy to see your enjoying making content again .... im stocked on the jeep content man 💪😎 just rag that hoopty thats going to be some fire content for sure !!! 🔥🔥🔥
Chris, the term that you were looking for is "cobbled" together. That means something that is rigged or poorly assembled...like the wiring in that Jeep.
I wana see tom drive the junk jeep because it will probably break bad enough for you to start the 135 build with Sir William killer of skyline first of his name
You should re-run the rear wiring completely, get a bit thicker gauge of wire too, it'd probably be easier to work with. You should definitely re-run some of the wiring in the engine bay too, atleast the stuff you can see has a million butt connectors on it.
Best vehicle ever had a 2002. Ran forever once u get that part for the 4x4 u will not ever regret the trade once you get it in the snow. This winter. Straight 6 is almost bullet proof... If taken care of.
That jeep looks like it has a newer 4.0L swapped into it and originally had a 4.2L, that’s why the wiring harness to the interior is unplugged and it has all the hacked together fuel system and engine wiring placement
i like that your cleaning it up. you need a beater for when ya good stuff brakes plus its good hearing you enjoying yourself haha cannot wait for Anton gets in it
Since you might have to fabricate something for the seats use can am x3 seats and when you go wash the inside after you’re adventure you can wet those seats and be good…
My jeep was a cherokee 2 Door 4wd 1989. The door hinge welds broke, was fixed like shit before me. Was a nightmare one of the doors flew open turning at 40 mph lol. Luckily I grabbed it before it went full send

Doing good Chris. Polishing a turd. Probably should have wired your tail lights before welding the panel on. Of you use a test light you should be able to trace turn signals and brake lights.and parking lights. Good luck bro.

Yea and especially since he’s build saving up and buying parts for a year, it’ll be great seeing him rip the 135.
+1
If you would listen you’d know the lifts aren’t working yet and he doesn’t want to start Will’s car without the lift
@@DoubleDoutdoors if you could read he states that it should be one of the first cars on the lift lmao no one said it was up yet here 😂😂😂
👌🏾💯💯
Man I love Will's positivity on the channel it goes well with Tommys negativity lol
fuck yes i was thinking about that, loyal kid
Ying and yang
Lmfaooooooo
tommy has a dark soul
I wish he was still in Florida. Jack was awesome.
"Functable" "Cobbery" dude eats corn the long way too much
cobjob our beaters
🤣😂🤣😂☠☠ fuckin gold
rudnickism baby
got another at 22:20
Best comment ever
"Cobbed together" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 It's COBBLED. The amount of Rudnikisms in this vid is gold.
He talks like a character in a cartoon, "Jiggle fuck off"
I've heard cobbled together but never cob job🤣🤣
Will has such a good attitude, gotta get his 135 finished when the guy gets the lifts done, Will seems like a guy who wants to be around, We want him around.
Honestly think the two of them could be a fun “show” so to speak. Honestly can’t wait for the tommy vs rudnick/will build off’s or challenges lol
Get a roll of trailer light harness for the taillights, it's cheap, and easy, it's all color color coded, perfect for old beaters
trailer fenders too. lol
Trailer lights are great in general, and modern sealed leds are better again.
The Jeep really just needs new seats, some wiring and some minor suspension stuff. It’s just enough of a pile that with some minor work it could be pretty good. And honestly I’d have tommy linex it, but that’s purely cosmetic

The way Chris looks at the quality of work on the jeep is the same way tommy looks at chris work on his cars
Most underrated comment in this vid 😂
Rudnickism of the day : “Functionable” not functional 😭😭😭
2:43 “Automatically” …. Think yah meant “immediately” Ruddy 😂
7.46 😂😂😂
for $500 this things gonna be a off-road machine awesome trade
I never thought I'd see the day Rudnik booger welds and caulks hvac ducting to a yj
I dunno why but this comment made me lose it 😂😂🤣😭😭😭😭😭 I'm crying.
The rattle can Bedliner is PERFECT for old jeep interiors. We did my dad's YJ probably 15 years ago and it looks just as good as it did new.
(Btw you're thinking of "cobbled" not "cobbered" lmao)
Might want to change the oil in the diffs I'm sure they are full of water
Oh god don't even waste your time with the wiring just RIP it out and start new bro 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Just buy painless harness

Yessirrrr I second that 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Nfs love da vids keep it up buzzie
Saying “cobbery” doesn’t matter, saying “functionable” before that does lol
*You need to bedline the jeep. And make a sick trail rig/winter beater!*
Yes it needs the same coating his xj had
He is bedlining it
Tommy does the whole linex stuff so he’s almost definitely going to do that lol
Bedline the entire thing!!
Yes definitely bed line the whole thing is the best thing for the jeep
(cobble something together) roughly assemble or produce something from available parts or elements.
Was looking for this comment.
COBBLE Chris! COBBLE. Like stated elsewhere, quit eating corn the long way bro 😂
"Cobbled" The word you're looking for is cobbled lmao!
Thank you, was going to post the same.
Freaking love the Jeep content! Can’t wait for Anton to show up 😂
Chris just find. A clean yj tub and swap it they are so easy I used to part out wranglers for years
This is soo true. It's not a difficult process. You can actually use the lift to pull the tub. You could actually go fiberglass and lighten things up quite a bit. Jeeps are nearly as simple as a lawn mower.
I second this!
Chris never does do anything the ez way
@@phorkit5717 I wouldn't go fiberglass then if you smash a tree it's done metal will just get dings and dents
I'd suggest if you're going with spray bedliner then might as well do the entire shell inside and out.as for maybe replacing the motor and trans,would definitely be worth it just for the off-roading fun lol
We are never going to see one project complete on this channel.

Dude was definitely in over his head with that jeep, probably couldn't sell it if he tried. He found the perfect opportunity to dump it on someone else and actually profit from it
@@cookingbacon3085 the jeep is a better investment cause it’s worth more and is far superior for off roading and way more after market
_"Daylight Cobbery"_ & _"All Risk No Reward"_ designs *NEED* to be made asap.
that jeep makes the cars from haggard garage look good
“Cobbled together” is for sure a thing, cob job sounds perfect for this piece.
I’m not even a jeep or off road vehicle type of guy but I love watching this build
That dana 35 has only about 2 more of those trailer unloads like that
best thing you ever said "lets just re do this wiring"
When Ruddy says something is clapped, its clapped.
I’m diggin this.
I only use the car wash brush on my windows and tires.
Spray that brush before using every time.
Also, I have an AWD element and no you cannot spray the inside of it. Despite it having a rubber floor. So much wiring is ran under it.
Honestly Chris, I would seriously contemplate painting the entire Jeep in Raptor bedliner. My buddy painted his entire Civic coupe in flat black Raptor Liner and it looked awesome. Edit: yes, they make different colors.
Just bed line the whole thing inside and out that's what I did with mine
Now you know how it feels Chris when someone buys a jalopy after you've owned it.
He dossent really sell his cars ngl only car his sold in the past 2 yrs is his ls400 stock and his Nb miata which he sold to his friend he traded truck and g37 to a dealer??
3m panel bond works great in addition to some tack welds. It seals it up and holds as strong as a weld
I'm enjoying this Jeep content so much, hope you will keep it running
Need a minimum Painless wiring kit or Speedway Motors wiring kit
Keep the jeep content coming!
Jeeps are pretty straight forward. They hold their value. Put some time and effort it will be worthwhile. Love the jeep content.
Not new Jeep’s🤣
Honestly I stopped watching Chris once he moved the Florida, the content wasn’t as good in Florida I’m so stoked to see all his OG friends back this is the content I wanna see !
This jeep is going to be a off road beast when you fix up all the problems with it. Awesome content
You have a dana35 rear axle. I've broken 2 just driving down the street. They're toothpicks with huge heavy tires on the ends rotating. Don't be dumping the clutch with that axle. The front dana30 axle is okay, since it's not the full time driving axle, they last longer. That vac delete mod is a must... I've owned 4 of these old Jeeps for 15 years.

Don't go over 33" tires with that rear axle

"as long as it's good enough" - rudnik, always
eyy man the interior actually came out pretty good just needs a little bit more TLC and she'll be raging the woods in know time keep it up
I gotta admit the interior looks actually decent now
Love that you are freshing the jeep up, that poor little Dana 30:s doesn't love that launch of the Trailer 😅
Yes looks like stock mounting brackets for the seats
Gotta say its great seeingb the ct content and Will again. Brings vack great memories. Cant wait to see the 135i rip
The hacked hole in the back floor is for the fuel pump lmao. There’s no access panel so instead of dropping the tank people just cut
"Budget Off-Road Jeep" fucking love it
This reminds of the dude on TikTok shit talking jeep owners while working on one that’s a rats nest 😂
Love the Jeep build! Great addition
If this is the same jeep from back in the day when you and Tommy shared the first shop together that’s dope!
It's not the other one was massive
I miss the Florida videos but you seem to be happy there as well. Loving the long videos, keep up the good work Chris.

This jeep build is funny as fuck!! props to Will for sending it off the trailer with no seat haha!
Throw back when tommy took off roading in his jeep at kent shop
You could check out 4wd 24-7, they have some amazing wheeling videos in Australia. Really cool overland rigs too.
It's so awesome having will back
I love seeing will again. Literally one of the best members of rudniks crew. Hope to see him in future videos!
I think Chris hired Will, so will hopefully be around for awhile

Cob job sounds like a name for eating corn the long way.

The tail light harness runs under the bottom back door by the fuel tank
Check the front and rear sway bars. They may be disconnected. That would explain the body lean.

Love to see will back in the videos
I wana see tom drive the junk jeep because it will probably break bad enough for you to start the 135 build with Sir William killer of skyline first of his name
Answer to "cob job" is referring to cobble things together, a cobbler is someone who doesn't replace anything just repairs the trash lol
Never in my 24 years of life have I herd the saying “Cobb job”. And when you putting out Pateron content
This is the kind of shitheap you roll once and look around and theres nothing left. Running on a whim and a prayer
Point being, dont cripple yourself again CHRISTOPHER
Recommend just raptor coating (paint) the whole truck. Easy to apply, tough for off-road and doesn’t look too bad 👍
I like what your doing with it. Cheap clean up sounds good. Fix stuff as it breaks.
Love the jeep contest. Harvard live in the Oldenburg days

“Cobbled together” to cobbery 😂 to get it functionable, who’s logging the rudnickisms ?
All those wires are to the C4 that blew up underneath the hood
"COBBERY" and "COB JOB" definitely not a thing
The Rudnikisms are strong this video
For the jeep you should definitely roller paint it either camo or grey would look mint
I’ve always heard it at “cobbled together” I think it may be related to the profession of repairing shoes (with glue and tacks) - a Cobbler.
