This
Project Vehicle build-up is an
ongoing build-up as products are
continuously added. Plans for
custom fabrication roll-cages,
etc will be added to this
vehicle in the future. Our
primary goal is to build this
Limited Edition 2005 Willys
wrangler into a very capable
offroad vehicle as well as a
comfortable daily driver. With
on and offroad characteristics
being accounted for we are careful
which modifications install on
this vehicle. Below are some
current products installed and
reviewed on this vehicle.

ARB
Old Man Emu 2.5" HD
Lift kit:
In
order to fit larger
tires and gain ground
clearance we went to ARB
for there reputable OME
lift system. The ride
this lift kit provides
is better than factory
and weight rated coils
along with nitrogen
charged long travel
shocks for a near Cadillac
ride offroad.

XT radial Big-O-Tires: Big-o-tires

This throttle body is strictly
for stroker engines, F&B

IMCO
Performance Muffler and
3" Tip:
A
good sounded engine is
always a must on our
project vehicles. IMCO
offers several style
muffler and exhaust tips
for multiple
applications. The sound
and performance from
this muffler is just
what we were looking
for. Amazing tuned sound
helped open our 4.0 up
and let it breath.
