|  Jeep Wrangler build, Non EVIL Version I started this one a while back after I finished the "EVILTWIN" YJ. Pretty much going to keep it stock except for rear suspension, motor, and tires/wheels. I probably wont even hack up the chassis at all even though these XC chassis often get caught up in the front. It is mostly done and just waiting for paint and some scale accessories. I will probably not hack this one up like the last one seen here. Jeep Wrangler build But it will still be fun to wheel alongside the EVIL YJ. Anyway here are some pics and I should get around to painting sometime soon. |

The first one that I hacked I got the body at a decent price on ebay but it was a bit busted up so that is why I hacked it. But this one I have had for a loooong time and never built it. Definitely not hacking this one. Figuring out the paint scheme right now. But that is it. Just the two Jeep YJ's. But I do keep my eyes open for good deals on them on ebay. I am just dying to hack up another one! What a rush  | |

| OK so the Jeep is a runner though not sure if I will ever run her Dont want to scratch it up. Who am I kidding, Ill probably run her tomorrow! Anyway it is almost done, just need to add a few stickers and maybe a hi lift jack or something to add some detail. I also want to get some better rubber if I do end up using it as a runner. On to the pics of the mostly completed addition to the family. |

| I like the tan roof Are those the Bruiser builder wheels? They look good on there. If they are, is there any chance of getting me a couple of measurements off of them?-Mike LMAO just noticed your location  |

They are Bruiser Builder wheels and I just threw them on to see how they looked. I wasnt planning on using them for this build but I really think they look and fit perfect so they are staying. Let me know what you need as far as measurements go. | |
