Default my new jeep

ok it isnt a 1:1 scale jeeps. its a powerwheels jeep made for young kids. well ive had ideas for one of these jeeps for quite some time now and i finally got one. tonight ive been tinkering around with it and so far ive raised it 2" and gave it more articulation. i eventually plan on getting another 6volt battery and wire it in or i might get 2 more gear boxes and make it 4wd. each rear wheels has its own gearbox and motor so thats why i said "boxes". i can get 2 of em for $10 on ebay. you can really put any other tires on it cause the way they are mounted. tonight i also removed the seats to be able to fit in the thing. ill have pics up tomorrow morning or night, depending on if the camera is avalible. i cant wait to get this done, itll be the best powerwheels jeep ever.

So you're like 8 or 9 years old? My son just turned 5 and barely fits in his PowerWheels Hummer H2. I've heard of Dad's modifying PowerWheels Jeeps for their kids, so this is not much different. :neutral: Search Pirate4x4, there were some cool rigs on there a while back. One guy used snow blower wheels and tires on his kids Jeep.

It's not pink, is it?

Wheres the pics? I'd probably do this with my little Big Foot but the thing is classic (for a powerwheels car) and I'd probably never finish it and I'd just end up with a pile of parts.

More likely because you are a teenager driving around in a Power Wheels toy intended to carry a 3 to 6 year old. That and the fact that you're modding it to go "wheeling" over 6" sticks instead of worrying about getting yourself a 1:1 for when you turn 16.




But don't say that I didn't warn you.

Maybe post some pics? It might make this thread a little less gay.

That's kinda funny...
I was thinking that... STOP BREATHING!!!

You realize that you created a thread about a F'N PowerWheels Jeep. Some thing(that many others have pointed out) is made for 3-5 year olds. And then you b**** when you get flamed for it.

Give me, and everyone else a break. Stop and think for a second.
