Opening scene was hilarious! Drive up, get out, slam the door and walk away, door immediately opens behind you lol. Awesome content as always!

Good job with the door strikers and fender trimming Rudy! The Comanche is looking awesome. Looking forward to seeing you and Janelle in your next video! 👍

That opening scene was funny. Good one.

The Comanche is really looking good! I think I know what you were saying in an earlier video: Finishing projects is important for content. Cool seeing 2 important things being done in one video. Great stuff Rudy!!

The Comanche looks so good with those 35s

Hello from Midwest Missouri, that is a great new look for the front gonna be a beast!!!

That fender flip is a great trick! I've wanted to clearance my fenders but I hate how unfinished XJs look when they're chopped without flares.

Good job and oops left positive cable on lol

I'm impressed. Now; what are you going to do with that Honda CT90?

Rome wasn't built in a day Rudy!The best to you young man!

I found that thumb tacks hold my headliner up on my Dodge Dakota

Holy cow a fit on the first try! Envy envy envy from me :)

I saw the ground clamp got forgotten when you backed out I've drug welder out with me once when backing a truck out 😃 that'll get your attention

Good job Rudy! Those little glitches with the go pro just make it that much more fun to watch!

The door slam then it opening back from some reason had me dying 😂

What I've found when lifting my Cherokee is that the wheel base shortens the more you lift. At 4.5" of lift (currently) the wheelbase shortens about 3/4". Doesn't sound like much, it all happens in the front. By using adjustable control arms, it enables you to re-center the front wheel in the opening. Maintaining the original wheelbase also helps keep your factory handling even when lifting. Hope this helps. Looking forward to more on this build, God bless, stay well.

Rudy you have an impressive knowledge of pathogens carried by small mammals. You teach us so much!

Love the end of the video. Backing out, ground cable still attached 😂😂. Happens to the best of us . No harm no worries, glad it wasn’t something more serious that could have did some damage or injured someone.

Rudy's excitement at doors that shut & latch closed ... it's a Jeep thing ?? .. lol

Ermagerd! I have been waiting for the door latch repair for weeks!!! Tell me you get goose bumps every time you slam that door! That's amazing!

Good Morning from Whistler MS

In one way, I'm going to miss seeing that door spring back open after you slam it. It always made me chuckle.

Yeah that door not closing when it drove me nuts really quick - lol.

I want everyone to follow Rudy's example that when working with grinders and other industrial equipment safety glasses are optional NOT mandatory.

That jeep has the best color fade/patina you could ever find. Love that baby blue to metal fade.

Omg the door is closing! As the video started and you were in the truck saying what you were going to do to the fenders, I said to my husband, “I wonder if he got the door fixed?”… then you exited the truck and tried to close the door… I said, “nope” ! Omg we laughed so hard! But you said you were fixing it! Yay! It looks and works great! Awesome Rudy!! Loved the video! ❤🫶😉🥰

Subbing your ground clamp for a block heater cord, your final scene backing out of the shop looked a lot like thousands of Alaskans during the early winter months leaving work in the evening....🤣

As for the headliner, a few well-placed magnets will do until you figure out what you want to do with it. We had a '63 corvair and it only took one magnet right in the middle to keep the headliner off of everyone. 😉

LOL, the ground clamp falling off as Rudy backs out is the sign of a job well done.

+1 on the headliner removal

Janelle .. thanks for bringing us, Rudy! 👍😎✊

I wish my good welds looked half as good as Rudy’s “bad” welds 🤘

Great video. My favorite part was actually the Walls ad. Your a great face for them. Hope to see more manufacturers realize the potential there is in investing in you.

Looking better all the time, Rudy. To keep Janelle happy though, you will have to tackle that headliner sometime soon.

Cool 😎 like the work you do thanks for putting more videos up.

Looking good , Rudy . I wouldn't mind having a rig like that to cruise the dirty and muddy back roads here in Washington

Love the driving out with the ground clamp still hooked on at the end there. 😂I can relate.

Sure like this truck, good choice.

Also we would love to see the Comanche at the 23 Easter Jeep Safari doing some overlanding!

Great work Rudy. I was lucky enough to know 2 people, back in the 80s that owned 1 of these Comanches . both were just like yours but were 4x4. Great choice with upgrades and work your doing . In my opinion one of the best small truck from that area. Very capable. Keep up the good work.

Good job on the door latches! Now you won't be falling out on the turns! Just rip that head liner out!

I see you used the easy-disconnect method for your welder ground clip. 😅 The Comanche is really shaping up. Can't wait to see how it is when it's finished.

I think going forward all fixes should be primed with purple RAD colors

Even the sound is off. ..it doesnt matter, cause you manage it, you will fix it, and the best is that we see you again, making somethin cool on the Comanche, security with the doors, and security with the wheels... Thanks for sharing Rudy!

Awesome job

Thanks for not cutting out the ground clamp at the end.

Hey Rudy Florida here I'm so glad to see you back in the picture

A common thing in XJ/MJ in the east of the country is the door hinge welds break behind the fender….no warning either…you go to open the door and it just falls off 😑

Rudy, glad the ground cable came loose without damaging your welder. Good job repairing the Comanche .🌝🌝

Probably gonna rub the inner part on flex still. I think I added 2 or 3" wheel spacers to mine. People frown but if they are hubcentric and good billet, you'll never have an issue.

Where do you get a headliner like that? hee hee hee. Great job on the fenders and door. You're great to watch working with metal!

A lot of work to get the doors to work but was done well. Love the satisfaction in your face seeing the door close well.

Rudy, you are a true craftsman!!! I'll feel much better with the doors both shutting like the should. You did a great job designing, fabricating and installing those reinforcement plates.

You have got that little truck looking good. The head liner shouldn't be too bad.

More videos as promised. Nice. Have you considering wrapping the truck? We have been wrapping our trucks, it’s easy to do and cheap. Lots of fun options color wise.

Clean and simple mod on the fenders 👍🏾👍🏾 that’s an OEM door 😂

Never even thought about doing that with the flares, how cool. The doors shutting so nicely is definitely satisfying. Love the video.

Neat trick with the flares. When's the move to the new shop?

I have always wanted a Comanche but never got 'round to building one, so I am truly enjoying coming along for your ride on this. Looking forward to what comes next with it. Thanks.

The Comanche looks awesome. 35's seem perfect. Awesome job on the doors as well.

Rudy Stop! You forgot the ground cable from the welder. Great video good to see your brother helping.

Great that you found a sponsor that is well suited for you! And hey, did Kaulin ever get his shifter made from his "leg metal?"

Nice work Rudy, it's coming together a bit at a time , the door strikers were a weak point from factory even new, I have seen them repaired under warranty when the vehicles were less than 2 yrs old, my buddy loved these trucks, and had probably 10 or 12 since his first new one in 1985 , same as the head liner they gave out after 6/7 years, they are still cool and the best part was always the powertrain, great video look forward to the next video👍

I love that Comanche you don't see many of them on the road anymore very nice

Nice trick repair on the door strikers! You're also one of the best welders I've seen putting steel plate to sheet metal, bravo!

Awesome Rudy! Haven't seen a Comanche in years, you'll have it looking great in no time!

Looks great. Totally appreciate the effort of overdubbing the lost audio and the outro gave me a chuckle.

Here in New Zealand we are one of the most regulated vehicles countries in the world, everything has to be certified, you are not even allowed to fart in your own car unless you pay a certifier to check it out and certifie its safe to drive

Ground auto-disconnect......Priceless...Thanks

Great job on that door jamb, Rudy. They can be a bugger.

Coincidently I’d never heard of Walls until I bought a vest made by them at IFA about a month ago. I wear that vest everyday it’s above 35. It’s almost my favorite piece of cold weather gear

Perfect timing on the Walls advert. I've been needing to replace my oft-patched coveralls.

Rudy I am glad the doors shut now since safety is very important. I really enjoyed seeing Colin make a few appearances in the video. He should have been wearing your merchandise though in my opinion. I am looking forward to your next video

I had an 87 Comanche, not many builds on them, love seeing this build!

The side by side of you dubbing the audio is way better than just a talk over..hilarious hahah

I like the ground flying off when you pulled out 😆excellent !

Love that Comanche!

A tip for tricky repair panels like that: Cover the hole with masking tape, then run your dirty finger around the opening and it will transfer the outline of the hole to the tape. Then remove the tape, trim with scissors, and you have a perfect template for your repair panel. Just stick it to the metal, trace it, and cut it out.

Glad to see u posting again......Comanche coming along nicely when u taking it out on the trail for testing AGAIN!!!

Ha. The door would have been the first thing I fixed. Thank you for putting an end to my torture Rudy.

Great job, Rudy! Love your videos! Glad to know you WON’T be falling out of the Comanche doing crazy somersaults on the highway.

Rudy, it is nice to see you using repair/ fab skills. somethings you just can’t buy you have to repair or modify😎

It's really nice to finally have that door fixed!

Comanche is coming along nicely Rudy that's a cool trick with the fender flares, great video thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍

The proportions of the truck are nice. Good trick on swapping the fender flares.

Rudy, you are down to earth….keep it going! About memory, we all go through it.. Matt’s the worst!! Ha, just keeping!!

😂 ⬅ Me laughing at the ground clamp popping off while backing out and thinking of the many projects that I have un-hooked the ground clamp the exact same way... on the way out of the shop.. LOL

You didn't take Travis and skeeter with you..gonna be weird without them at Matt's..good job on striker plates..and flares..much knowledge to share..

That truck is easily one of my favorites, including anything from MORR and Fab Rats. Can't wait to see what else you do with it

Headliner next.

I just love you Rudy. Enjoy your videos and Al so with you work with your Dad. Keep up the good work.☺️

I, as an older guy, see the combination of advanced 🫵🏽fabrication skill, and carefully, knowing, what your challenge is. It’s a very interesting dynamic to observe,🙆🏻‍♂️ because, of the personal forces around you.💥 Like, you can pair and assist, any of the best fabricators, and in your own facility, your blazing a trail. It is because, I’m a jeep xj owner, lookin’ to hand off a 2000, Cherokee, and studying👈🏽 style. I’ve scribed to your channel..!🤔

Rudy, I'm glad your building the Comanche because I kinda miss the old Rudicon. It was like the little engine that could. No lockers, Dana 30 and STILL hanging with the big boys on all the trails and obstacles.

Well, with the backwards fenders, now the upside down grille fits in just fine 😅 Love that you're keeping the MJ aesthetic, it was such a great rig.

Nice adventure & craftsmanship! Bought a Walls" Blizardpruf" coveralls (in blaze camo) for hunting, figured when they wore out I'd buy bibs & a jacket, lol. For the last 30+ years they've been hunting, ice fishing, then chores & working, (even with a couple of diesels)... Still haven't worn out... Thanx !

Hope Trevor and Tucker join your posse. Glad to see another video!

The doors have to work. Nice job.

Awesome tip on switching the front fenders. That’s was a boss move

Did you check into fiberglass front fenders??? Super cool, wide open and just wide, not always too expensive either. I did those on my 2010 Taco, up +4, out +3 and they are pretty awesome.

Rudy, thanks for continuing to make MJ videos. There's a huge following for this truck
