TJ low-rider - 2010 Scale Nats Trail rig build

Wheee :mrgreen:
 
god, I still hear the sound that thing made when it hit bottom...

we heard that thing hundreds of feet away :lol:

The sound of steel bouncing off of rocks carries really well :ror:

My plan is to generally avoid that style of driving next year. We'll see how that works out ;-)
 
This thing is so bad ass on the rocks! It truly is a beast, I forgot how much fun 2.2's could be.

Glad you're enjoying it Justin "thumbsup" You should post up that pic of it compared to your 1.9 to show that this is truly a low rider Jeep.

Great build, thanks for the inspiration as I start my new bright tj/ 1:1 build.

Glad to know I inspired you. I always get inspiration from other builds on here as well as all the 1:1s on Pirate. If Justin hadn't bought this Jeep off of me, the owner of the 1:1 wanted it. That's a good boost for the ego right there :ror:

Pics never do a rig justice, Chris calls the Jeep a "low rider" so to speak. But in the pics that he has posted it always looks like a big 2.2. So I thought I'd snap a pic of the "low rider" and my 1.9 TJ. I was surprized, I really didn't think they would be at the same height.

i dont think i have ever seen a 2.2 that low to the groundthat wasscale it does look like the 1.9 and the 2.2 are the same size though

As low as it is tire rub is very minor, I thought it would be a lot worse. Could it be lower? I think I could get it to sit lower if I wanted to, just need to poke some shocks through the hood and tweak the boat side's.

The 1.9 TJ is just a hair taller then the 2.2 TJ:shock:
 
This jeep still blow's me away. I don't know how it handled at MSD but it's working wonders for me. My guess is because I have more seat time in it then ecoli:lmao: ( sorry Chris lol ) .

Here are just a few random pics for this past weekend.

Wow that TJ looks really neat. I love how low it sits "thumbsup"

Thats what I visioned in my head when I was planning a build but never got around to it :lmao:

One question though if I may ask-who is the owner of the silver g-wagon??
