It is a 1980 Jeep Cherokee with a 360, touqueflite 727, Dana 300 going into a divorced NP205. The front axle is a reverse cut Dana 60, with an ARB, 4.88 gears, and 35 spline outer shafts. The rear axle is a Dana 70 out of a military tug. It has 4.88 gears, strange
spool and disc brakes. Front suspension has 4-inch superlift with one leaf removed, converted to a spring over. Rear suspension consists of a triangulated four link, with a buggy leaf, front and rear shackles, sitting on spings off of a 99 Chevy Suburban with the overloads removed.
It has a 10-point roll cage(fully tested), Rhino-Linings inside and out, onboard air via a York compressor converted to air with a 25 gallon tank. Fuel comes from a foam filled fuel cell from Summit. All of this hits the rocks on 44 Boggers mounted on Eaton wheels with home-spun beadlocks. I find it to be an extremely capable rig to say the least.
