Kinda defeats the purpose of a jeep though. They're supposed to be small and nimble and able to cut through the woods anywhere. Jeeps don't need huge ass tires to get the job done. It still looks good. I just think the tires on it in the very first pic are perfect.

You have never been to easter jeep safari huh?


I think it looks great!

I have seen quiet a few JEEPS, XJ's, TJ's, YJ's, etc. with 40s. The proportions look great, Its nice to see one stray away from the stock look.

Too big? Depends on what yer building, but I think it's just right.
that white XJ you had pictured is actually originally from the town next to mine, lol too bad it got parted out not too long after they completed the build

Zuk90,
In case you were not sure from earlier post. This is what most use for the MRC axles. I use these on mine.

Wild:
I think the proportions are great. I think it is an illusion of too large tires from the smaller 1.5 wheels. They look larger then the RokLocks I run on 1.9's.

The Body is mounted and all electronics are in place. Time for some testing.

The stance on that rig is very intimidating with the big tires! I love it! Now get some outdoor shots!
