I GOT A CALL FROM

[@Rudysadventureanddesignreal]

Yes, the cap is vented on the reservoir.

[@barryking9002]

Not wanting to be a stick in the mud but I didn't see you put in the exit/entry hose going to the radiator I assume you treated/painted the inside of the tank the same as you did the outside. The radiator return hose is normally on the top with a tube down into the tank but stops 3/4 from the bottom so if the radiator spits out muck or small rust bits then it will settle on the bottom of the tank , then when it sucks back on the liquid it only takes good clean coolant if the hose is on the bottom then you can sort of guess what sort of problems this can cause especially if rust flakes settle and block the inlet/outlet.Overflow tanks helps with the overall general health of the whole cooling system not just as a catch can . Other than that it looks awesome and is probably bigger than originally so more coolant must be a good thing

Ever seen a battery explode? If you're having it there either put it in a box of get a gel cell

[@rogerdavies6226]

[@calholli]

I was in a situation like this-- it was much steeper, but a dirt cliff-- not sand... but we didnt' have enough rope, so I ended up using 100' extension cord.. It was close enough where I could wrap the cord around three times, and then tie it off... and it pulled the truck up the cliff, and didn't even break the cord; we used it the next day. If you try to use an extension cord as a straight single pull-- it will break quite easily, but loop it 3 times or more-- and it has enough copper there to not break. Pretty cool.... I tied the ends with a bowline-- so it was easy to untie.

[@ricks9169]

@@barryking9002 I had the same question about the radiator blow-off hose. Saw holes drilled for filler and two for sight glass, but not for the blow off hose..Great fabrication job!

Does Matt get a Rudy's Adventure and Design shirt? He made a call!

[@warrenmichael918]

He didnt get a shirt but he gets to wear the shame at family supper i think!! LOL

Forget the shirts, he should be able to stick a RAD sticker ON the bananna (or other MORR rig) as payment for the call.

Matt is old school and eye balls. You have technology and a huge plasma cutter, etc. I love seeing the 2 generations working with their hands creating amazing off-roaders - using the machines of their generation! Wish you continued success! Would love to meet you one day! ❤️🐞

[@chazfaz3595]

And both guys have great spacial reasoning, creativity, practical understanding of engineering and physics, and the guts to try stuff.

[@chazfaz3595]

@David Lightman I just did. And so does the dictionary. Engineering: "The application of scientific and mathematical principles to practical ends such as the design, manufacture, and operation of efficient and economical structures, machines, processes, and systems."

[@-HighTide]

@David Lightman Naw, just a valid point. What is your point? Why you mad? You dont like this channel? You just want to troll?

[@chazfaz3595]

@Vannadel Yep. And a person does not have to be a professional engineer with an accredited degree to engineer something. The major validation is whether the product accomplishes what it was designed to.

[@ChuckHickl]

@Vannadel not sure who you referring to as " famous inventors", but engineering degrees we're not available, at least in the US, until the early 1800s. That means there was a lot of inventing going on without anyone actually having an engineering degree. All throughout history, the pyramids, gothic cathedrals, Stonehenge. All of these constructions required a detailed understanding of physics and how materials react under pressure. Many of the world's greatest creations were done without an engineering degree.

[@misterv4462]

As you get the Rudicon "more done", you could change the fraction on the side.......19/32 Dun......23/32 Dun. Blow everyone's mind. They'd be like, "What? How do you know it's 27/32 Dun?" LOL (I like fractions) Loved the part when the hole saw fell out of the drill press and your reaction. Love your videos!!

[@davidblalock9945]

Little tidbit of advice. Shades to protect your eyes need to be UV-a and UV-b blockers. Also side protection is a must as light reflecting off the backside of the linse can damage your eyes. Even though we can't see it, the UV coming off the plasma is very bright and will damage your eyes, especially if its reflecting off the back side of the linse.

[@orangepickel2]

It won't be The Rudicon if it's all done, there's always room for new ideas and improvements, trials and tribulations, triumph and desperation. I'm glad to be here, MORR is still good but I miss your cheerful it'll-be-fine-disposition. It's a flashback to my younger self before my life became overshadowed by chronic depression and anxiety 24/7. 👍

[@FrehleyBurst9-1878]

Rudy, You need to do a "Background" video of how you and your Dad got into the Jeep XJs. What year is your XJ and is it the first one you owned? They are by far one of the best offroad vehicles, the size of the XJ gives it an advantage over other offroad rigs as you can get in and out of some very tight trails that full size vehicles just can't do. Keep up the great content!
