Feel free to email: raylenermmenning@turbonutter.com .
A great example of a unique, well thought out, professional rebuild of an Iconic American Classic. This one off
incredible jeep was built utilizing the “K.I.S.S.” theory (“Keep It Strong and Simple”).
The power plant chosen for this project is the venerable Small Block Chevy V8. The NEW 355 CI Engine with vortec
heads produces 375 Ft. Lb. of torque. Built by The Jasper Performance Division of Jasper Engines, it features a 3
Year / 100,000 Mile Transferable Warranty. Just tuned with a 600 CFM Edelbrock Performance Carburetor. It features
a Dual Plane Aluminum Intake Manifold for increased torque!
The Ignition System utilized is the MSD 6-AL. An Optima Deep Cycle Red Top Battery was used as it is ideal for
trucks with winches and provides ultimate starting and deep cycle power to keep you from getting
stranded. A compact High Torque starter fits in nicely and works great.
The Exhaust Features Coated Hooker Headers with true dual custom bent and welded pipes all the way back.
Power is transferred through a TurboHydramatic 400 Transmission with a B&M Ratchet Shifter. This is mated to a New
Process 205 Transfer Case used to turn a 14 Bolt GM Corporate Military Rear Axle w/ 4.88 Gears and a Locking
Differential. The Front Axle is a Dana 44 Posi Tract with Manual Locking Hubs and an ARB high tensile nodular iron
Differential Cover, w/
Magnetic Drain Plug and Magnetic Dipstick to fill and check oil.
Front Brakes are massive Chevy Truck disks w/ vented rotors. Rear brakes are massive drums common to many 1-Ton
Trucks. All Brake Lines done with Stainless Steel Line. The HydroBoost Brake Booster system provides incredible
stopping power.
All Major Drivetrain components were chosen for Strength, Reliability, Availability, and Simple Maintenance without
ridiculous future expense!
The Professionally Built Custom Crafted Chassis utilizes stock GM truck components with the original Jeep frame cut
and notched in. Gussets and strengtheners were also used providing Much More Strength and Rigidity than a 1-Ton
truck. Stainless Steel and Grade 8 Fasteners used throughout. No Lift Kit was used or needed for this Jeep to sit
over 14” Higher than a stock Wrangler. Wheels are 8 Lug, 16.5” Diameter x 12” Wide. Tires are 38” High
Super Swamper TSL’s. Front and Rear Bumpers were Custom Fabricated using ¼” thick box steel. A 12,000 LB Winch
was incorporated into the design of the Front Bumper w/ a Stinger Winch Guard and Auxiliary LED Light Bar. The Rear
Bumper is made with a Receiver Hitch for Accessories and Towing.
Fabricating the Tilt Front End required 2 Jeep Hoods and the front grill to be spliced together, addressing the
stretched wheelbase. Front Fenders were Hand Crafted from aluminum and the flat tops were well thought out for
their utility and strength.
What sets this Jeep apart from other custom builds is that it still retains it’s Factory Original Paint on the
Body and Half Doors (included with sale). Rare Top Quality glass slider windows are included with the half doors.
No Rust & No Accident Damage EVER!
The Interior is also Factory Original and in Excellent Condition at almost 30 years old! The Upholstery, Dash, &
Carpet are in Amazing Shape! Custom Weatherproof Floor Mats are included and fit nicely. Premium Auto Meter
Tachometer and Speedometer Gauges w/ Carbon Fiber Faces were Neatly installed in the Original Dash. All other
Gauges are Original Jeep and operate well! Heater and Blower work extremely well. Audio System uses a JVC Head Unit
w/ Dual 4” Coaxial speakers in the overhead sound bar and 6”x 9” three way speakers mounted in movable
speaker enclosures with plenty of extra speaker wire. The rear speakers were made to be placed on
the outer rear fenders of the Jeep for surround sound at campfires and gatherings.
Comes with Complete fold-able Soft Top Assembly and a tan soft top.
A Rare Combination of Simplicity and Drive-ability not found in most other modified Jeeps. It will drive easily
over sand, climb up hills, and keep up with traffic on the highway. The stretched and widened wheelbase truly
delivers a better ride than a stock Wrangler. Equally at Home, at Work, On Road, or Off Road with No Modern
Electronic modules to get you stranded in this Jeep.

Chrysler recalling nearly half a million Durangos and Grand Cherokees
Fri, Feb 27 2015Rule number one of public relations – save the bad news for Friday. Fiat Chrysler has adhered to that, announcing today that it'd be voluntarily recalling 467,480 SUVs. This latest recall could actually be thought of as a continuation of a September 2014 recall, relating to the fuel-cell relay. In that case, some 188,723 Dodge Durango and Jeep Grand Cherokee CUVs from model year 2011 were recalled. And this time, it's the Durango and GC in trouble again. FCA is adding crossovers from model years 2012 and 2013 to the fuel-pump recall, although only diesel-powered Jeeps with the 3.0-liter V6 that were sold outside of North America are affected this time around. As with the previous recall, deformities in the fuel-pump relay, which could affect its functioning. In most cases, FCA reports that the affected vehicles simply won't start, although they also could be prone to stalling. A new relay circuit will be installed that promises increase durability. Of the 467,480 vehicles being recalled, 338,216 were sold in the US market, 18,991 went to Canada and 10,829 were shipped south of the border, to Mexico. Outside of the NAFTA region, FCA is recalling 99,444 vehicles. No injuries or accidents have been associated with this recall. Statement: Fuel-Pump Relay February 27, 2015 , Auburn Hills, Mich. - FCA US LLC is voluntarily recalling an estimated 467,480 SUVs worldwide to install new a relay circuit that improves fuel-pump relay durability. FCA US engineers have determined a condition identified in a previous investigation may extend to additional vehicles. The previous investigation, which led to a recall, traced a pattern of repairs to fuel-pump relays that are susceptible to deformation. This may affect fuel-pump function, preventing a vehicle from starting, or leading to engine stall. Of the two scenarios, the no-start condition is the more common. FCA US is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. The fuel-pump relay is located inside the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM), which also helps manage other vehicle functions. None of these other functions, including air-bag deployment, is affected by the fuel-pump relay. The new campaign affects an estimated 338,216 vehicles in the U.S.; 18,991 in Canada; 10,829 in Mexico and 99,444 outside the NAFTA region. Covered are model-year 2012 and 2013 Dodge Durango full-size SUVs and non-NAFTA 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee mid-size SUVs equipped with 3.0-liter diesel engines.
Fiat Chrysler posts record Q3 profit thanks to U.S. trucks and Jeep
Wed, Oct 28 2020MILAN — A rebound in car production in Fiat Chrysler on Wednesday reported record third-quarter earnings as production returned to nearly pre-pandemic levels. The Italian-American automaker, which is finalizing its full merger with French rival PSA Peugeot, reported a net profit in the three months ending Sept. 30 of $1.4 billion (1.2 billion euros). That compares with a loss of 179 million euros a year earlier. The carmaker reported adjusted earnings before tax and interest in North America of 2.5 billion euros. That offset deepening losses in Europe, Asia and at its Maserati luxury marquee. Latin America, the only other region to post a profit, saw it narrow by two-thirds to 46 million euros. “Our record results were driven by our teamÂ’s tremendous performance in North America,” CEO Mike Manley said in a statement. Overall, the carmaker said global earnings before tax and interest were a record 2.3 billion euros despite a 6% fall in revenues to 26 billion euros. Global shipments were down 3%, due largely to plant retooling in North American to produce the new Jeep Grand Wagoneer in the luxury SUV segment and the discontinuation of the Dodge Grand Caravan classic minivan. Fiat Chrysler announced earlier Wednesday that its merger with PSA Peugeot is on track to be finalized by the end of the first quarter of 2021, as planned. To meet regulatory concerns, the French carmaker is selling a small stake in a components maker to get below 40% ownership. The new automaker, to be called Stellantis, will be the fourth biggest producer in the world. Earnings/Financials Chrysler Dodge Fiat Jeep RAM Citroen Peugeot
2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots give us best look yet
Wed, May 18 2016A couple weeks ago, we got a fairly comprehensive set of 2018 Jeep Wrangler spy shots. For fans of the JK-series Jeeps, it was all good news: the basic Wrangler Unlimited formula and shape is present and accounted for, meaning this new Wrangler will be an evolution of the current SUV, rather than a ground-up reimagining. The new shots give us some more detail than we had previously, and let us point out some JL Wrangler features that reaffirm FCA's conservative approach. First of all, the heavy camouflage doesn't manage to fully cover the exposed door hinges, just like in the current model, so those are a safe bet for the production version. The raked-back windshield might lose its ability to fold down, we've heard. The JL remains a body-on-frame truck with a solid front axle, evidenced by the front diff peeking out and the radius arms connected to them. The large exterior mirrors also appear to be carryover items, and the taillights look indistinguishable from the current JK. We expect the front fascia to remain clearly recognizable as a Wrangler, but don't be surprised if the headlight and sidemarkers incorporate some LED elements as a nod to current trends. Remember, the JL will spawn a pickup version, and will slim down for better fuel economy with some aluminum elements, likely incorporated in the body. We expect the Pentastar V6 to carry over, but be joined by a diesel and a mild hybrid at some point in the future. It'll be built alongside its JK predecessor for a short time in Toledo, Ohio.
