Thanks guys I suppose I should post the specs on it, it's got 14" bilstien prototype coilovers up front mated to a d30 that was built by Curt Le Duc to run the jeepspeed unlimited class. the housing is trussed, plated, gusseted everywhere possible, and the tubes are sleeved with .250" wall chromoly tube. the rear is just a 4.5" RE pack with a big drop shackle.

I recently picked up the white shell i posted up that is already caged, so I tore this one down and threw the drivetrain into a 94 2 door that I got for free with a blown motor. sadly this jeep is no more.

The plans for the white one are a 4 linked 9" in the rear with coilovers and bypasses, ford style I beam setup up front with coilovers and bypasses, a 350 engine with aluminum heads and a big cam, with a built 700r4 trans behind it putting the power down. according to numbers on paper I should be able to pull 24-27" of usable wheel travel out of the front, and closer to 30" in the rear. should be one hell of a ride
