It has the 9 rear but 44 front, coil springs, 302 holley 4 barrel intake, 1 3/4 tube cage work, automatic, 100 wheel base tires are 44. 12 gal fuel cell, 5 point belts and a bunch of other stuff. Will look at the other two posts and check against my list of "must haves". Thanks so much for the help, really appreciate it.

I'm getting yelled at for not getting my work done.... crud. I'll check out the other 2 posted jeep tonight, they look interesting, lots of new.

Work now, play later. It sucks the hear but always pays off in the long run.

It's long!!!!! Is it an automatic? I can't tell. 39" tires could go up to 41? this has all the goodies I have on the list, atlas transfer, Dana 60's, Chevy 350, 35 spline, coilovers, 20 gal tank (no stopping?) Disk brakes, warn 9500.... What does it not have? I need to ask about the cage, seats, belts? It looks really skinny, I don't want Matt in my lap.

Jay's Rubicon is 54 inches across. 43 seems tight?

Yah Bill...I thought it was one of the best I've seen.

it is automatic 39 inch tires are good, can go bigger easy. this has everything you need! just safety details but it is minor stuff. this is your rig!

I guess I have to have it cause it really does have everything. Can sell the trailer since I already have one. I'll call the guy and see where it's located. I just made Jay sit with me on a 43 inch piece of cardboard, It's tight. Can you move the frame out side to side?

not real easy to spread the seats apart. as long as you can get 2 seats in there then there should be room for you and Matt, not like you take up the whole seat or anything. crawl ratio is good and for the top speed go to high transfer. top speed will be 102 mph or so. it has very good power for the weight of the vehicle so won't be slow.

wish he would call back....

All this talk bout Racing, what racing background do you have and how long have you been wheeling. You are gona spend this all this money. Just remember YOU CANT BUY EXPERIENCE

true butt without the proper vehicle she'd be broke down every trip using the wrong equipment for the job. If you're gonna do it then do it right.

confusious say: I THINK BILL MIGHT BE RIGHT ...if you can afford it without borrowing money.

Guess I just dont see the big pic But I have never seen her on the trail ????? Rig is very important BUT YOU HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO USE IT...........

I see your point. can't just buy a rig built for racing and expect to be a good racer and to do well. She has it in her blood to race and on the trail this is quite evident. she is very throttle happy. She is willing to learn and understands that you can't just but the rig and call yourself a racer. she wants a 2 seater so she can have help along the way and learn from experience. options are to build her tj to handle the abuse or have one built for her/buy someone elses rig that is already built for the job. without the proper equipment she would be setting herself up for failure. With the right equipment she can learn how to drive the rig and gain experience as she goes. you can learn all you want about how to race in a stock jeep but once you go to a buggy set up for the job it is a different world and you have to start learning all over again due to teh different handling characteristics. I'm in the same boat. I've never raced, i know how to wheel but that doesn't make me a good racer. that would only come with experience. I just want to get out there and go fast and be in teh competition and experience the thrill of the race. Don't reallly care about winning or even placing, I just wanna race.

Response: I hear ya, TLC, well it needs it once in a while. This is an experienced rig IE it has been on the trail. The skins are scarred, some tubing is bent, tires are barely tires, and some other stuff. With that said I wheeled 16 trails in two days parked it and it is ready to go without being touched..maybe some air in one of the tires.

Dont want and will not suprise anyone, will send video to anyone serious showing all the points that may need attention. Fact is, this is not a blingy buggy but it is ready to wheel and works pretty good!

Can't gain experience without a descent rig to practice with. I spoke to Barry (owns the rig) this afternoon about the size of the cab. He said it was tight and the seats are the kind that Matt has. They go up on the side of your hips. He said you hit elbows when putting seat belts on. Was very frank and said it would be tight for 2 big guys. While I am not big I am thinking that is to tight. I would prefer more of the type of seat Bill or Nick has.... I don't know, he is in Phoenix Arizona. So to make the cab wider would be a crap load of money? It has a few bugs... he was gonna email the list. would take $1000 off since I don't need the trailer.

You're worrying way too much about the width of the rig. Matt doesn't smell that bad, come on now. It's a race ready rig, don't sweat it. You and Matt are both small. You can have my seats if you want the, I'll trade LOL. Mine are stock tj sahara seats, they're SHIT and i can promise you wouldn't be racing with them haha. This is a serious rig here, I'm not sure how much better you'll find for the money.

there is another local rig you may want to look at. It was a crawler but can be made to go faster fairly easy.

it is only a 1 seat buggy, so no pass. with this one

came in 3rd place at the last race. And about the same price as the other vehicle. this one is already prepared to race, just get in and drive.

The biggest problem is the t-case. Its only single speed so its not fast. he didn't race this car in the last race. he raced the t-donk at line mtn and the sept race. He did race it at RCQ and complained about how high he had to keep the RPMs

need 2 seats. but thanks for finding it. Spoke with Jeff at Adrenaline and he may sell his jeep. Sending me the specs tomorrow. Has the 60 in the front and back, Atlas, 100" base, 39 tires with bead locks but I think the same engine as mine. Will know tomorrow. Have someone interested in the Rubicon.
