Carolina Truggies JK Build

[CTRaceWorx]

We received a 08 Jeep JK about a month ago and here are the build specs:
-5.7 Hemi
-Atlas 4.3
-SOLID 60s
-HOWE Full Hydro
-41 Irok Radials on 20" PSC Beadlocks
-16" Fox RR Coilovers all the way around
-Fox 3" Air Bumps
-Double Tri 4 Link in the rear
-Single Tri 4 Link up front
-PRP seats
blah blah blah
As of right now, this will be the most extreme built DD JK in the US.
I'll have some pictures up shortly.

And doing a pretty good job of it, it seems
Brandon, you need to get hold of Todd's JK and up the ante

 

[CTRaceWorx]

Well, I have done a decent amount of builds down here and I've never posted any of them. So I figured a one of a kind JK would be pretty cool for people to check out and to see what kind of work we do.








Plus Brandon is making me look bad....ha

 

[StrokedWJ]

Sounds like a sick ass build.

 

[CTRaceWorx]

Thanks

 

[CTRaceWorx]

We started by trussing the SOLID 60, not that it needed it but it adds to the bling factor.

[spraypaintman]

That's what The Krawler is going to look like when it grows up

John I can see you driving something like that since you are so old you will be needing a nice soft ride and creature comforts.

Since the JK frame is so wide we have to do a couple things so we can chop about a 8" section out of the frame for the coilovers to come up through. The stock cross member got cut out for a simple tube cross member.

Are those body mounts that came out with it? If so - is that a concern?

 

[CTRaceWorx]

Those are the stock coil buckets

 

[quickracer]

looking good Alex.

 

[brokeass4runner]

Very cool.

 

[CTRaceWorx]

I got a little bit more done on the frame today. I need to trim the frame, box it in, and clean everything up before the rear is done. This will give a rough idea of what it will look like.

 

[WARRIORWELDING]

nice, what gauge metal are you able to dimple?

 

[CTRaceWorx]

11 gauge

 

[jodyfj40]

nice

Alex,
You have come along way since the days of the fj40. It looks like you have become a very good fabricator. I'll be calling you this winter to do some work on the new jeep.
