Trail Jeeps build

[10frank9]

Congrats brother. It's going to be a great build, with high quality parts many will be envious of you. I bet that four to five week wait is going to kill you.

[Recurve]

Thats awesome! Your going to have a crazy rig when its all done!

 

[big dr]

Holy crap!!! Nice list of parts!! Congrats, and enjoy. Cant wait to see it done, as well as your posts on its new abilities off road!:thumb:

Question,,,, What will be your deciding factor on weather you go with a rubicon case or the Atlas?

Wes said they could do an Atlas 2 speed but the 2012 and up automatics have computer problem recognizing the Atlas something that involves the Traction Control......we'll see if that can be worked out if not we will go with a Rubi TC instead.......that's what Wes runs in his Blue JKX 2015 rig

That is a total bummer to hear,, considering I have 12' auto, and was planning on an Atlas soon. I haven't heard of the Atlas having that problem before.

[JKAnimal]

That is going to be a beast when you get it back! Congratulations! I'm looking forward to seeing it finished!:beer:

You made the list because you've contributed to this forum and shared your knowledge whether direct or indirect over the last 3 years.......and I've met you personally so that's even more of a reason :thumb:
