Holy Crap, I said I would read them ALL but DANG!!! I'm going to be up late tonight!!

[@thatJustinUknow]

Cus Merica!

[@colewebb4643]

BleepinJeep well I will make a wild guess why you bought a nother jeep because if some jeep's are good then more jeep's must be better told you it would be a wild one LOl 😆 have a good night C😎😎L

[@pranays]

When you wish you listened to mom and kept your mouth shut.

[@MtHoodMaster]

I love my CJ7 !!!

[@colewebb4643]

Pranay hi and good morning pranay well some time's we all put are foot in are mouth some time or another the famous last word's I don't think he had any ideal how many texts he we going to get you have a good day C😎😎L

[@familyashburn4457]

wheel the cj7 and scrap the comancheep

[@markgueren9633]

I'd just keep the CJ 7 and clean it up....it's already done...

[@honksgarage8084]

Keep the cj7! One of the greatest jeeps ever made dont hurt her! 😢

[@Dirt_McGurt]

Just drive the CJ

[@WaffleCopterCO]

It's almost a shame to do it. It's like killing a unicorn. With like a bomb.

[@tonyb022377]

Hell don't tear that thing apart it's pretty good as it is... Leave the Comanche to someone else on Craigslist!

[@dfgyuhdd]

Solid advice but then what would his channel be about? Buying and selling Jeeps on Craigslist? Booooring.

[@tonyb022377]

ryan there's already enough broke ass people that don't even wheel... This video shows you can just go buy something and be wheeling the next weekend that's the way to do it

[@bleepinjeep]

Lol, I agree with Ryan... I cant have a Jeep channel where I just buy jeeps already done... Well I could but thats not me;)

[@tonyb022377]

BleepinJeep improve it!!!! On board welder/recovery rig!!

[@chocolate113cm]

Nooo!!! Keep the CJ and wheel it!

[@UnitCrane514]

I don’t know why you didn’t always have one of these classics. That’s a real Jeep.

[@tundro27]

Just got my t-shirt today, Matt...thanks for the ring pop! I'm afraid I agree with a vast majority of the comments here...gutting that CJ7 would be a terrible shame. She's yours, so do what you will....but consider keeping that baby intact!

[@huskydad72]

Matt, first of all let me say yes you did a good thing and that was a great deal with all of the parts. Secondly, you really made me feel good with this video. I knew right away why you bought it and I felt totally justified with my recent purchase. 91 Cherokee with a 6.5 inch lift, 32 inch tires and a 4.0. All for only $750.00!!!The kid didnt know what was wrong with it. Once i changed the fuel pump and the cps it runs great! All i need to do now is get new off road bumpers and a winch and I'm ready for the trails. No other money is required to get it the way I wanted it! Definately a cheap budget build. Thank you Matt. Really. I feel so good about this and I'm glad that you understood the whole idea of saving money. Love your channel. Please keep up the great work!

[@bleepinjeep]

Thanks bud, glad to have you watching!

[@coreygray100]

The Comanche is going to be awesome. I just feel bad about for the CJ, that thing was built almost perfect. I thought Matt was going to keep the Comanche kinda stock and do a separate rock crawler project. But this will be awesome either way.

[@tybilodeau4439]

Awesome project! Hang on to what's left of the cj for future project options down the road. Those cjs are really good looking even one as hacked up as that one.

[@simplygarza8511]

I have always wanted a Comanche. It's a jeep... And a small truck. Combined. What's there not to love? The fact you got an CJ7 with all that new hardware and having it equipped with LED lights, spare fuel cells, dual batteries, and all that awesome stuff is amazing. $10,000 vs $18,000+? (to exclude shipping fees and wait time if you were to buy them online) it's way worth it. I dare say you may have gotten a once in a lifetime opportunity on this deal. Especially when the Comancheep will be all done ready to take on the world. You're doing what this Jeep lover wants to do: see what happens when you breath a new life into a Comanche. Best wishes on this project! I can't wait to see the end results! 🇺🇸 Furthermore, I want to go to school to learn how to do all this stuff one day. I've already learned alot watching the channel, since I own a '98 Grand Cherokee Laredo, but man, there's so much work I want to do with it. Makes me wish it were possible to meet you guys. I feel like I'd learn even more. I always look forward to what id learn next on this channel. Other amateur channels are kinda vague and recorded in like the 2000s 😂

[@southwestoffroaddotcomswxor]

Good point and something I do frequently, especially around October to January when everyone is selling their incomplete projects for holiday money. Just think of all the time alone in procuring all those parts before you could build each component too! Lastly, sell off some of the stuff you don't need like OnBoard Air and buy a scuba tank for example.

[@yoyartube]

I would totally take that out crawling before taking it apart.

[@madmechanix4962]

Perfect point.. I was going to buy a TJ and needed around 3k in upgrades bought a junkyard XJ salvaged all the parts it needed from wrecking yard 2200 total and I now have a really decent trail Jeep.. and the factory AC works!! Will need a engine eventually but does the job now

[@mikewarman9910]

Don’t ruin the CJ!!!! It’s so cool. Just keep it or sell it to me

[@ET-gn9ms]

Long live the CJ! I vote for keeping the CJ7, and wheeling it the way it is! I'm seeing less and less CJ's out wheeling every year, very sad.

[@clarkhudnall6956]

Personaly id keep the cj and wheel it the way it is and still build up the Comanche with parts off of a pre built xj as they are everywear and cheaper then a built cj would be

[@codywhite0943]

To hell with that comanche, that CJ is perfect!

[@Thorin193]

Keep the CJ and to heck with the Comanche. The only thing I have ever felt you channel needed was more Wrangler/CJ stuff.

[@NickTarterOKC]

DLittle Totally agree. I've had several XJs and currently have a CJ5 and a KJ. I'd love to see Matt build a CJ or YJ.

[@Saya-fs1jo]

hey he can make some interesting stuff, I'd never part out something in that good shape, but it'l defenately be building something interesting.....plus if he happens to have frame and tub laying around for a while, and an mjs running gear maybe hell wind up deciding to price some stuff together. the channel does need a few more cjs, well probably see that from Tim, but it'd be great to see Matt's take on a wrangler

[@rc3140]

Outstanding!!! You have the best idea and the quickest way to get it built before easter jeep safari! Thanks for sharing another fantastic show.

[@JTwelder.]

I bought a 2 door 98 XJ 5 speed 4x4 for $4000, Lifted, 33 by 12.5 general grabbers with a full sized spare, all new shocks, full sound system, Custom steel bumpers with winch and a roof rack. All already installed by a mechanic with proof and the thing was certified and smog tested. Been daily driving it for 8 month and love it i am fully converted to buying built and doing small changes.

[@Arcnsparks]

You forgot the fancy keyless start system! Gotta be a $200 system there :D Can't wait to see the progress, keep it up!

[@bleepinjeep]

lol, nice catch!

[@JesseBrass]

Definitely a good purchase, and your estimates were wayyyyyy low so I would estimate it would be at least double what you guessed. Awesome jeep, I really think you should keep the cj and restore it!

[@gasolinedreams2691]

I wish I had a tenth of the knowledge and skill that Matt has. This is one of my favorite channels, well, at least Matt’s projects.

[@jeepsterdaddy37]

Buying the CJ was the cheaper route but it sucks knowing its going to be sacrificed for its parts. I would love to have it as is but sometimes you got to do what you got to do. Can't wait to see the finished product that's for sure.

[@ItIsMeDave]

I understand the draw of building the Comancheep, that that CJ is awesome! Slap the bed on the back if you want and call the project done!

[@MULIES4EVER]

Honestly I respect what you are doing. I want to build a comanche as well but it would literally kill me to tear that CJ apart. I would add it to the collection happily and stick the comanche on the backburner until I could afford the parts to built it also. "I only need one Jeep" said the lonely overweight slug who gave up on life because watching reruns of Gilligans Island with his cat became more appealing.....

[@bleepinjeep]

I have 5 jeeps currently, I could live without the CJ

[@MULIES4EVER]

BleepinJeep I understand. I currently have 3 and one parts Jeep. That Cj has a lot of fun stuff on it.

[@theonlychampion96]

that's gonna be badass with the LS under the hood. I'd also keep the manual because it'll be less work, less time, and you've already got the atlas for it. changing transmissions might give you problems with that.

[@NickTarterOKC]

This video was rad all the way up until the "I'm going to part out my CJ to build my MJ" part. Don't get me wrong, the MJ is going to be awesome. I kind of want to see you fix up and wheel that beast CJ. That would be one of the coolest builds you've done.

[@mattwells4613]

I absolutely agree! Save the CJ and fix it up a little more. Then you can have more cool vids for the channel and an awesome CJ. I agree to buy a semi-finished or wrecked project to get the parts you want cheaper, but buy something less awesome to tear apart!

[@oxtweed1]

Keep the Cj. Don’t kill it.

[@Rocklanderoverland]

Keep the CJ7!! don't hurt that Beautiful jeep.

[@goin200mph]

Good idea? Yes. Bad idea? Yes... I hate to see a great CJ get parted out. However, I LOVE Comanches almost as much as CJs, so... Anyway, I’m glad it’s you and not me tearing apart something I’d love to own. No judgment here! Love the show! Thank you, Matt!!

[@TheLubowski]

Matt, you're basically living my dream of owning all the (good) jeeps and building it the way you like it. That CJ7 is GORGEOUS, but I'm excited to see what will come of the comancheep!

[@kendallshirah672]

I have enjoyed the Comanche build. Great idea buying the CJ for parts. I think it's a big savings. Was glad to meet you and see this vehicle at pidgeon forge.

[@chrisfox3646]

CJ needs to live Matt! Dont kill it!

[@143jkrd]

WTF?????? LS1 CJ7 parts to build a Comanche truggy. Put the Comanche on CL call it a day. This is getting silly. I will still watch but Really it's a CJ7 C'mon.

[@ryanwatson6911]

JR Behan agreed

[@bleepinjeep]

lol, I'm not partial to CJ7's... And what would the channel be if I just bought jeeps already finished?........ Plus I want a winter rig, that thing is darn cold!

[@DrHavok1]

If you love the cj so much then you'll buy it from him when he's done and show us your build with it

[@hectorsalinas6607]

Ls1 is 5.7L not 5.3

[@Trailblaza322]

Its gonna be hard to see that CJ come apart. You should keep it like it is and still build the Comancheep! After all it wont be too (Cheep) with 10k worth of parts in it.

[@TexasRedneck]

"Cheep" is a relative term lol

[@Trailblaza322]

TexasRedneck You think thats cheap?

[@TexasRedneck]

Again, it's all about perspective. $10k for the parts mentioned, yeah that's cheap. Can I afford that? No! haha

[@Trailblaza322]

TexasRedneck Yeah i guess it is. I cant afford it either. Im into too many things to put that kind of money into my jeep. Wish i could though!

[@TexasRedneck]

Same here, too many other things need money.

[@allterrain]

Pull the CJ body and graft that MJ cab onto the CJ frame and do a frame stretch for the bed. Leave all that motor and suspension work on it!

[@RaneyOneTwenty]

I'm excited to see this. I got my axles for my Cherokee this way, I bought a jeep that hadn't ran in 9 years for $1900 swapped the built axles (ARB, Chromo's, Etc.) onto my cherokee tuned up the one that hadn't ran in 9 years put on some used tires and sold it for $3500.

[@MANewhall]

Super interested! Think parting a common vehicle to restore/upgrade an uncommon one is fair game. Have not seen that yet on the tubes, any platform. Good luck with the quality of the parts.

[@jim4012]

Good buy Matt!! Your absolutely right that someone could take it & wheel it as is. But mostly that it is less expensive to pick up a pre started project.

[@j_mars_cars]

I was pumped that you got a cj7, but now it's getting parted out haha. I have a cj7 that is basically stock aside from fiberglass tub and lockout from hubs

[@GnBst]

I love the slow crawl on the intro, I love doing that in my bronco with the 435/208 in 4LO and 6.68 first gear. I do, however, prefer to stay in the driver seat :D.

[@wyattoneable]

All valid points of why to buy another Jeep. The money spent will be measured in enjoyment. You can't put a price on having fun! Your editing is really good Matt. Great project and I'm looking forward the the build.

[@vgullotta]

damn that LS sounds freakin nice when you go rippin by at the end. That CJ is such a beast! I can't believe you're going to gut it lol, but the Comancheep is going to be bad ass too, so I will have to forgive you!

[@RiderRenegade]

Hell yeah man. I dig it that thing is gonna be wicked. Looking forward to all the videos! I found ur channel about a year ago when I first got my 97 Jeep Wrangler and i has to do some easy task and didn’t know how. Now I have rebuilt my rear diff added lockers and dropped the transmission to swap a clutch. Now I’m swapping in an 8.8. Mostly learned all from bleepin Jeep!

[@bleepinjeep]

awesome, thanks for watching!

[@kylancook3477]

I think this is a fantastic idea! I just did the same thing 2 weeks ago for a 97 xj I am building. Paid 700 for a running driving lifted jeep with m.t. wheels and 35s roof rack 4.10 gears lift kit light bar ect. All that for less than a new lift kit. Sweet.

[@jonkern2325]

Kylan Cook you got really lucky. Xjs are very high in price around me. Stock, lifted, mild to wild. My xj only has a 3 inch and 31s, but has low miles and is my daily. Love the thing but for 700 bucks in pa most likely be rotted or wouldn't run and that'd be for just a stock one

[@kylancook3477]

Jon Kern I missed out on 2 other jeeps in this sort of condition before I was able to snatch this one. Been looking for a while so must have been some Christmas credit card bills that needed paid for them to go up so cheap.

[@jbrunsonjr]

Oh nooooo! If it only been anything but another Jeep! Basically you’re tearing apart what I’m hoping to build. If only it had been a Chevy, or a buggy, or anything else. I get it, though. RIP little 7. 😭

[@ericvansplinter8275]

Seems like a good idea. It'll be cool to see how much bolt on and how much re-fabrication needs to be done. I hope that you find a way to incorporate the truck bed back onto the Commancheep. Even if you lose the floor..but you gotta keep the sides and tailgate. Otherwise you might as well just wheel the CJ.

[@Stisse12]

Wow! That a good plan and you Will save money! I think you got the CJ for a very good price if everything works on it! And there are quality parts on it And now you can make vids on how to remove/unimstall part aswell!

[@m118lr]

I’m on a Bleepin’ Jeep watch frenzy! Just coming onboard, or uh...permission to come onboard sir? Great vids Matt, keep up the great work!

[@paulcannon2070]

Bad ass cj!! I can't wait to see it in another video

[@geekytechycool]

I'm all for takin it apart, it stopped being a cj7 a long time ago. I think for convenience sake and cost it's a solid idea. I don't know if I could stomach that kind of cash leaving my pocket just to tear it apart and such but more power to you!

[@JonnyDIY]

That thing sounds nasty! 9:32 The Comancheep is gonna be a beast with that powertrain!

[@waynesanders1406]

I can't believe that guy spent all that money and then put a Fram oil filter on the engine.

[@TheQuartermaster55]

Hard to see you gut that CJ7, but honestly, I would never build a CJ7 that way to begin with. YJ, sure, TJ, yep. I'm one of those people that love seeing jeeps made into hardcore rigs, but look at CJs like classic cars. I know, I'm weird.

[@Saya-fs1jo]

yeah I'm with ya there, I'd love a cj like above. but left to my own devices it'd probably stay awefully stock, cupholders seats and 3point belts may be about it(well maybe a 4.0 but externally stock at least)

[@Onry09]

Do a budget build on the CJ7 with the leftover parts after you finish the Comancheep

[@robertwilbert1317]

Awesome you made the right choice...for what your doing...cant wait to follow along and watch it come together

[@sdguy123]

Depending on the wear and tear on that CJ I would say you got one heck of a deal. Nice work man.

[@DustinGould]

Kind of a shame to part out a nice looking and equipped CJ but its going into another jeep so its not a bad way to go -----I definitely support this idea :)

[@toaster3807]

Dustin Gould I agree when I was the title I was like hell yea then saw the heep in the back and knew...😢

[@jeffdobbins7112]

You got to go wheel that CJ at least once first!!

[@ryanlong4021]

Bad ass. I recently bought a 1996 cherokee on 8" long arm, 3 link up front, 37's on humvee double beadlocks, JCR front and rear bumpers and sliders, 2007 power wagon axles with eaton E Lockers. Paid 5700. I think I did pretty well. I think you did too though.

[@matthewfromflint2504]

Ryan Long not bad at all

[@codywheeler6307]

Do you still have the roll cage

[@electricguysvcs]

Your crawler is already built. Scrap the Comanche throw some paint on the CJ and then start a new project

[@justinvanstory3965]

I’m so torn by this! Yes it would be awesome to transfer all of those goodies to the Comancheep, but DAMN what a shame to tear up that CJ!!! It sure looked like you had a big grin on your facing kicking that CJ around, just sayin’! Please give us one good video wheelin’ the 7! I’ve owned an 82 CJ-7, 88 and 94 YJs and currently an 01 XJ that I bought new. So... I’m all for the Cherokee and Manche stuff!!! Love the channel! You, Tim, and Tyler are Badass!!! P.S.- One video of the CJ off-road please and thank you

[@andrewb2474]

Awesome deal on the cj7, can't wait to see the crawler build. I've been wanting to do a build my 01 XJ but that will come soon!!

[@michaelgrohe5894]

He is not killing a CJ. He is merely taking all the UPGRADES off of the CJ and putting it in to a Commache. Love what you're doing, but I just like seeing Jeepers getting all upset over how "it should be".

[@garygarant2582]

Good price. I have a cj5 ,bought new in 73' started work on some years ago and have well over that amount in it and still working on it. But most of the fun is the work .

[@CaptainGnarkill]

That CJ is rad! I wish my YJ was that built. Im sure this Comanche Build is gunna be awesome though!

[@velazquezjaime149]

I said earlier to enjoy the cj7 but i also understand that comanche love is comanche love! And yes that is a very good price for that cj7. But at the end of the day it comes to one thing, it does not matter what jeep you have is all about have fun at the end of the day good luck with your awesme project...... I love your videos good work!!!!!!!!!

[@philliplozano7326]

That's pretty fair and not bad because you got all you need in a package deal and like you said, sell what's not needed and make-up for some of the money spent buying the Jeep.. Great job and good deal not bad, good luck with your build, oh by the way, would / could you possibly tell me information on where I can get parts for my 73' Jeep DJ5, I really would appreciate it, thanks and stay safe...

[@ericmann5804]

So your wife’s at work, kids at school, and your at home working on a jeep…. I’m jealous! Love the videos!

[@yodawunn6700]

Hate to see a cool 7 go down but I've cut up some good vehicles down through the years. I get the feeling it won't be as quick and dirty as you let on, you'll never be able to throw it together without redoing a bunch. Not because it won't fit, because you can't just let it go. I've watched a lot of your videos and seen your skills and tool collection grow. The builder bug is firmly entrenched now. Just my opinion but this is going to bloom into a bigger job than you are telling yourself. Have fun!

[@Vvajk]

Awe, as a CJ-7 owner myself, I got excited at the video's title. I was excited to see you build a CJ. Oh well, I understand why you're doing it.

[@mikelawhon4335]

Great advice you help a lot of people by doing it that way when you clean them all up and paint them anyway the parts will look brand-new anyway

[@vividvulpe9842]

sweet! $10,000 is about what I estimated in my head- I'm very much looking forwards to the Commandcheap build

[@tonyphillips6562]

I think the price is very reasonable for what it is. I have a TJ with a LS, 4L60e, 35's etc. $10K wouldn't get me interested in selling it. Hate to see the CJ go but excited to see the Comancheep. Good luck

[@dannypstl423]

Thats about right for 10k. Well done. I'm excited.

[@bingham1234567]

cant wait to see it, loved the scorpion crawler build for its detail, but the comancheep is going to be a fun build to watch.

[@phillyburbsbassin3234]

For what I have seen a few local guys build their CJs for, you got the CJ right on the money at around 18 to 20 thousand in brand new parts. I believe at 10 thousand you hit the right price of gainable parts and resale items as well.

[@02riddle73]

can't wait to see this thing on the trail.. comancheep with a LS and swampers haha 👌 so glad I found this channel

[@JB_Royal_Ambassador]

Finally see a built CJ7 on this channel! Oh....ok I guess. I am used to stealing parts to put on a CJ so it will be interesting to see it the other way around. Looking forward to it. I have a 79' ish CJ7 ( new and other parts). Have fun Matt!

[@mikeguilbeau3940]

Matt from the parts stand point its a good deal . from the build stand point you may be better off by removing the body from the CJ7 and putting the comanche body on the full frame. due to the uni body design to handle all that torque from that v8.

[@bleepinjeep]

I'll get it figured out, this aint my first rodeo!

[@madjeepernh6834]

I would rather see this than the death of grampa CJ.

[@michaelgeiss741]

I vote for this plan too! Save labor by swapping bodies onto the full frame! Keep the CJ7 body and make it so you can quickly swap out bodies whenever you want. Then you will have something nobody else has, a true CJ7'omancheep convertible!

[@16guns]

Keep the CJ and sell the Comanche. I sold my CJ7 and regret it daily.

[@AlejandroP1980s]

RubiconRobert hey I have a question does a 81 Jeep cj7 renegade have a computer

[@gordongman3423]

That's how I lucked out buying 01' XJ. for $500 Been setting for a couple of years. Had a lift of 6" blown drive-shaft and Blown transfer-case. Found a transfer-case, new old stock, now get this $250 . 33" BFGs, 90% tread. Front and rear diffs by "Solid" What a score.

[@CopeManMTNDEW]

That cj is my dream jeep. Has everything I've always wanted to do to a CJ7.

[@paulhead]

I agree with a lot of people here, keep the CJ, that rig looks sick!

[@paulhead]

Poor Lil CJ

[@harrybachmann9815]

Matt, be like Tyler and keep both. Please. Please. Please. Don't molest that CJ. It's perfect just the way it is.

[@Spooky_Yellow_Doge]

Keep the Cj or sell it. don't put it under the knife.

[@adamtaft1062]

I love the idea...makes sense..just how much swap over attachment fab will be needed?..over all I would of done ot..I love Comanches too!

[@Dhaner92]

10k?! Nice find sir.... I’d say that comancheep is gonna be one capable rig! Can’t wait to see some progress, Big fan of the builds

[@MrCrazyirishman]

No bro that cj7 is awesome you need to keep that for yourself merry Christmas now as for the comancheep off to pull a part for parts bro

[@itsbs93]

I think it's going to be a hell of a rig. Love to see it when it's done.

[@4Him4u2]

And, good on you for the purchase. The CJ looks pretty good as it is. But, I know you have a show to do so roll on. I am still laughing at the ghost ride in the opening.

[@toolologist6274]

Seems like a good plan. Just bought a stock ZJ and am half tempted to buy another one that is already lifted because a good lift and wheels and tires are as much as a whole lifted ZJ.

[@YouTubeDoxedMyRealName]

Twas a good idea but it's almost a shame to tear it apart. You otta keep the remaining parts and build a hybrid for your next project.

[@jeffchappell4856]

This is very exciting, can't wait to see the build happen. Please keep the manual trans though!

Listen Matt, I think you flipped your lid! Why in God's Earth would you part up that CJ-7? That thing is a hundred times cooler than the Comancheep will ever be. Here is a suggestion... Why don't you find a way to put the Comancheep body on the CJ7 frame? Might save you from ruining a perfectly good Jeep.
