RUUUUUUUUDDYYYYY! Love Trevor and Tucker!
Great to see those 2 boys again..
where does tucker work now?
@@michaelwpaulin4876
That shop video of you and Janelle that you put on IG needs put on CZcams shorts for people who don't have IG. It's a must see.
That motors days are numbered. 😂 Oh, and Zach is a great addition to the channel. Knowledgeable and seems like a supercool, chill dude. And as an added bonus he looks exactly like Peter from Office Space…😁
Asome love the blower just need to build a 4.0l stroker for it now
My thoughts exactly, but then i remember how his dad has a 4.6 stroker in the banana and he’s happy with it, then went back to get one for Robby’s, so why wouldn’t he just order another for the rudicon
You can make unbelievable horsepower and torque out of a 4.0l sky's the limit
Nah, you're more likely to blow up a fresh motor than a tired one when adding boost (which is why the turbo LS guys like 300,000 mile 6.0 Express vans), and those Eaton M90s are pretty safe unless you start stuffing tiny pulleys on them to spin them to the moon.
@@mikeanderson9922 It's a reliable motor but he's gonna blow it quickly. Would like to see a rebuild with upgrades.
I’m so happy you don’t want to LS swap! Always good to have a RAD video drop to start the week
Ditto 🤠
does he Ls swap a ton of stuff? (im new to the channel first video i see)
@@pnoLS swaps are just overdone in general. The Jeep 4.0L is an awesome engine, it just takes more work to get power out of it than an LS.
@@johnpearson492 i mean yeah i agree but that wasn't my question haha
@@pno I guess you are right, I didn't answer your question. No he hasn't done an LS swap before on the channel.
A dyno tune is a must. Stock map on a stock 4.0 is a ticking time bomb. Do something about the hot air intake! In any case heat will get the best of it in the summer.
100% have it tuned, will make more power and do it reliabily.
I agrée. He needs a tune and also he has enough space to run the i take over the back side of the side and to the passenger side. Where he can either do a cowl intake or leave it under the hood and it will pull air from the shock tower and cooler air from the fender
Yes a hoodscoop to get proper air for the poor air filter
It's never a bad idea to supercharge anything!
Especially on American cars
I reckon that mini truck needs one too. 🙂
i think the XJ is one of the vehicles where less is more. they already have cooling issues and frame rigidity issues out of the box lol. light weight is better than big stuff and more power
Prob a good idea to get a tune on it asap. I'd wager it'd run a lot better with a/f and ignition adjustments.
If it's too much, u will know soon enough.😅
Good to see Trevor !!!!
I really liked him on MORR !
Too bad you didn't dyno it before and after.
This is the kind of stuff I like to see you do .
Rudy has turned into his dad, Mattgyver'n stuff and Zach must be the new voice of reasoning like Tom is to the MORR team lol. New generation of MORR unfolding here 😃 RORR "Rudy's off road recovery"
RAD(A)R. Rudy's Adventure Design and Recovery.
Congratulations, Rudy. I know things have been hard and it's taking a lot of work and not much to work with since you branched off from your dad. You are making your mark and climbing up. Keep going.
This channel is almost as good as MORR. I look forward to watching Rudy on his RAD journey.
Did something happened?
@@pepsicolazero Rudy just decided to start his own channel over a year ago. No bad blood, he just wanted to do his own thing.
Hard?? lol Without his dad hed be at 1/10 of the subs and working outside in his yard.
@@katedaphne4495that was nice
Dang haven’t seen Trevor in a minute 🤘🏻 should have kept the quarter panel😂 adds character 🤘🏻
Him and Trevor have their own channel along with another friend of theirs. Misadventure lab
That qtr. Panel looked like the start of the Rudimater.
People will buy the dented one. Or fan give away. I would put it on my shops wall
Great to see you back.
Tools - always take tools with you.
I admire your "jump in, lean into it and brace for impact" attitude when it comes to building your Rudicon! Right on!
Don't be too tough on Zach, I am sure others have missed something. LOL. Do tell about your new shop, what are your plans, what are advantages, etc. Looks nice
That's cool, but that old engine isn't going to live long with a supercharger, LOL. Run it till it won't!!
I am seriously excited to see what you do with that sand rail/dune buggy you were driving at Matt’s Off Road Recovery. Wheelies in 2nd gear are awesome.
This. Need more sandrail.
@@chrisjones5482most definitely 😅
Glad to see the Rudicon getting some love. I really can't wait for this mini rollback truck with Trevor and Tucker!
I like the Supercharger. It does sound neat. I'm surprised by how quiet that it is.
I supercharged my 4.0 with an Eaton m90 and it's a ripper!
* The look on your face after you where doing 2nd gear wheelies in the Sand Rail at your Dads.. Priceless .. 👍
I absolutely love the Rudicon and keeping the inline 6 was an excellent idea. I can't wait to see more Rudicon action!
It’s about time Rudy! And you brought Trevor and dad, top notch video.
Sweet thanks for the invite!!! I'll come camp in the parking lot for weeks and nvr leave...........😂
One of the best ways to cap off a caulking tube is with a wire nut,
(Scotch lok). Either a yellow or red.
Screw it down snug, works great for a long while. Great to see another video from you, Rudy!!
MWP Cosby Tn.
Oh man that first pull out of the lot put a big ole smile on my face 😂
Nice to have you back Rudy. Good move putting a supercharger on the Rudicon.
wow very close to your old shop. I like the new look. I have never stopped by because not wishing to interrupt. I have had a few lunches at the border store and thanks on the tip for getting air their.. Very nice blower install.
Love the blower addition. ❤️
Definitely has the cool factor.
Rudy, you are getting better and better. Keep it up. You have a bright future ahead.
I could see Matt is going to supercharge the banana now 😂😂
You could see the gears in his head turning 😂😂
Well, this could be interesting, lol! But, I might be biased... Way back in '79 I bought a t-shirt that showed my grin from an 8-71 we put on a AMC Gremlin...
"I'd rather be blown, than injected!". Keep providing us all with an interesting upgrades, lol! Thanx !
Nice! I love electrical issues. I could watch that stuff all day! Looks like you found a good set of hands too. Thanx Rudy!
Rudy is the only person I know to have bought a 5k supercharger, and attempt to hammer it on 🤣🤣
for sure. at least it was a mallet and not a sledge.
You mean that there are other ways to install it?????
Rudy and Matt have very similar finesse levels..his dad would have used a claw hammer to bludgeon his supercharger through.
The pin for RAD is in a different location to the address on Google Maps, is that the old shop? The RAD pin is on Field Av>
Also, did the supercharger come with an ECU? She'll be running rather lean otherwise.
1. Run supercharger
2. Blow old Engine
3. ???????
4. Supercharge replacement Golen Stroker
It was good to see you run the 24, congrats Rudy. Supercharge all the way if your rig is build to handle it. Let er rip. It has been fun watching the build progress.
Welcome to 2024, Rudy and Jeanelle. Hope all of your efforts will be blessed w/ success. I think Pappa is envious of that SC unit and will end up doing the same/similar upgrade to the Banana - you could hear the gears humming, as he asked questions about it. I'm waiting to see what Matt has been up to w/ his Baja Corvair.
Glade you are back posting videos.
Haven’t seen Trevor in a while. Nice to see him again
Good Job Rudy! Let us know more about your new crew member.
It's still got that Gangster Lean. I guess that's just your signature.
Thanks for the videos!! Keep em coming!
I did some wheel wells on 2010 Chevy Silverado. They was getting rusted out so my friend ordered some replacement ones and i cut them out and welded them in. After that i grinded the welds down and used bondo on it not much thow. And it still looks good and he even dented it and no chipping or cracks. It was the first and only time i did it and i loved it.
great stuff, funny, I didn't get to watch this before the hammers. Was wondering where the blue panel came from, makes sense now ha ha ha. Nice to have met you and checked out the Rudicon in person. Thanks for being a good dude Rudy!!!!
Rudy, your jeep is a beast, its truly inspiration for other builders to see, spend money in the right parts and you can have a blast without breaking the bank if you have confidence in your fabrication work. it would be cool to see Rudicon, verse banana, Broncstar, Ownes blazer, dejablue (when finished), scorpion, and the onx winner S-10 and few comparable builds at sandhallow.
I was wanting an update on your brother’s old pickup on the Suburban chassis? That was an interesting project. Thanks
Great job guys. Thank you 😊
Congratulations dude 😎👏🏻
250k
That's awesome 🎉❤
Liked to watch when you were on your dads channel and like to watch you on your own. I really want to see the footage from the sand rail you worked on at your dads shop. Wheelies in second = awesome footage. 😂
Hope you had a good holiday visiting and vacationing with family! Seems like there have been a few YT creators supercharging their off-road rigs lately. Looks like it'll be a nice "boost" in performance!
Super cool supercharger. The Rudicon just went to the next level. Great video. 👍👌 😎
Great content, great videography and editing! I always enjoy your videos!
😂 the look on your dad’s face was I don’t really need a supercharger but it sounds like a cool idea!
It's good to you see you back in action!
The new shop looks great, Glad the super charger worked out well.
I love RAD channel. Keep up the good work Rudy!🤠
You are such a chill and driven guy and i wish you all the best in everything you do. Thx for the all the great content.
Could tell you got your Dad's wheels turning when he saw the supercharger in there. Lol
Nice improvement! I'm looking forward to hearing the whine as you power over some obstacle.
Great show rudy well the supercharges kick him buttkeep rock and rollin😊
Awesome going supercharge Rudicon. Misadventure lab & Rudy that's a good day. 👍
Awesome content as always Thank you RAD.
Great video and great job with your jeep and I recently seen a slant six supper charged with a turbo and stay safe and God bless from GA
Looks like a great mod be great to see how it performs rock crawling, thanks for sharing, all the best to yous and your loved ones
Awesome upgrade! Great video!
Nice job Rudy and Nice Shop
Zach seems like a good fit for your work.
Hey Rudy and crew The super of the charging is always the best idea lol. I am excited to see the new digs come together and grow with you. A bit of unsolicited advice from me. (armchair peanut gallery) Figure out what is making your audio duck (get quieter). Very hard to listen when your vocal is so low. Being partially deaf this is an issue for folks like me. Thanks again for all the great content and work. You are truly RAD
I agree that the sound is all over the place. I had my volume way up, and when an ad came on. it nearly blew my eardrums out.
You and the rubicon did great at 24 hell and back. Well done
I have a 2015 Jeep Rubicon AEV w/ an Eldenbrock e- force supercharger .. It is great compared to the stock
Pentastar v6 .. It is now at 87,000 miles and I am upgrading to a AMW 4x4 6.4 hemi w/ 8 speed tranny ( Upgraded drive shafts and rear axle rods to handle the hemi ) .. Looking forward to the monster upgrade !!
"Atleast until this blows up" That's what I was thinking, remembering back to when you stuck that tired high milage motor in there!
Forced induction is instant HP , but add a little ch3no2 and watch out for your rods as they leave ! Awesome upgrade !
I believe it will fit always fits sometimes u have to just make some backyard hacks and chops and the hood clearance. Double gasket special
had that problem when re gasketing a stock setup at work. remove both the intake and exhaust and then go to re assemble and the intake hits the heat warped exhaust.
Great mod and definitely a welcomed boost I’m sure!
Sounds great and good job guys .
If it don’t fit - whack it with a mallet. 😂 Love you, Rudy! Welcome to the channel, Zach!
Great choice of the super charger 👌 But now your going to find the next weak link in the drive train❤
Keep up the great work & videos.
I had to grind my intake manifold in the same spots when I put a header on. I hate the same side design of the intake and exhaust!
Hey Rudy, can you put some more technical emphasis on the things you are doing in regards to the XJ. I was interested in the difference of size between radiators and how the jeep did in 3rd and 4th gear after the supercharger maybe temp differences instead of showing the problems and then tackling them all in one shot, maybe try cutting to the solution and what you did to solve it, from a Viewer perspective its much more enjoyable that way
Do you plan on upgrading the fuel pump on Rudicon? It would seem that the more air you introduce to an engine, the more fuel you will need. Food for thought.
That was a great upgrade. A better fit air filter looks like a good idea. Does it require a retune? Certianly it couldn't hurt. As Always, May God Bless you and yours! 😇
Another new shop... sweet, congrats!!
oh snap trevors here! That's great! Now I want to watch this channel.
Needs a cam and a tune. I love the fact your sticking to the 4.0
I'd love to see you build the 4.0 to go with that super charger. Cammed stroker and tuned. 😁
If little brother and Matt's off road recovery came out to save you, you are entitled to a Tee-shirt.
Really enjoy your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Zack/Zach is a nice addition.. especially when he does pretty great work on that quarter..
Cool. With the supercharger you can dig deeper holes in the sand. Nicely done.
I’ve always been apprehensive about putting silicone and other sealers on intake manifolds and other stuff, I’m always afraid if it isn’t just right it might have a vacuum leak. I smear/spread it on as even and on the whole surface as I can, but that’s just me, probably not necessary. 😊
Watching from KENYA 🇰🇪 EAST AFRICA
Good to see Trevor
Trevor! And he stayed upright! WIN!
I so wanted to supercharge my XJ. You are living my dream. Well done.
Happy to see your pops make an appearance!
Hey Trev!!!
Good to see ya again!
That is the nicest boxing for a part I have ever seen, not being a computer. It sounds like you pinched your exhaust at the 24 . I heard it then and it is even more so now after you put the boost to it . And yes it's way cool !
I just drove through. I wish i would have stopped by. But it was cool to see the MJ and the Rudicon in person.
Not going to lie. I miss you and Trevor over at your dad's shop. But, I'm here to watch you grow.
PS --- bring Trevor in every chance you get.
You could see Matt's brain ticking looking at the charger lol
Its really cool that you've found one of these Boosted Technologies superchargers. Itll be interesting if youve ever have issues, those guys are not the friendliest for support...
Yeah, I talked to them, if I didn’t have an order number they didn’t answer any of my questions
@@Rudysadventureanddesignreal that sucks considering that they make the only kit I've ever seen. You never know, your video might spark some interest in other manufacturers... Your dad seemed quite interested as well
What did you need to do to the fuel delivery to run the charger? I have always wanted to do this to my XJ as well. But reliability is important too.
Great!~, Almost ready for Dakar!
Younger Brother saves Older Brother's bacon! Great video.
Maybe an auxiliary radiator and cooler for the Supercharger mounted on the rear roof? And tune it asap to not run it leaned out!
