Yes similar, but the motor and trans won't fit between the frame rails flat like that. It sits at an angle to get the motor as low as possible and 2 of the bolts for the trans are outside the frame rails. I think there is a pic in this thread.

If I can't find the one in this thread I'll try to take one tonight.

I run 1300 40c 3s sky lipo packs. They attach to that strip of Velcro on the drivers side rocker.

I love this little jeep. It crawls like a champ.

Hope to see the SC Crew again soon.

Will have to see how this little gem works at the next run/comp!

I agree, this rig just works no matter what terrain it is on!

Iv'e been watching this post basically from the start , You've done a great job documenting all the things over the last year and a half, Seeing all the different stages this rigs has been through and all the different setups makes this a great how to build a tj thread. FATBOYrs10 built this for me a few years ago and i think it time i start collecting parts to put it together , Please keep up the good work and i'm sure i'm not the only one you've inspired to build one. Thanks.

Thanks buddy! Hope it helps, it's been a fun build.

Here are some more pics of the light. It's not the prettiest bar, but it should work for the comp this weekend.

Wish I could mount it on the front bumper to avoid the dark spot from the hood but there is no room on the bumper.
