Murderous Overkill Tinkerings

'Nother update for anybody interested. Man, at this rate I'll be done with this build when my 3-year old graduates high school. http://blogs.jpmagazine.com/

Oh yeah, Cappa let the cat out of the bag about his secret Jeep Rat Rod project. He's basically recycling 90% of the parts I took off Overkill - steering, rear axle, 194 Chevy inline six, etc.

 

Rat Rod's have been one of my favorites to look at but not build, can't wait to see it

 

One more update. No rockcrawling for this rig. I won't be Class 8 legal since it's getting an Olds engine and I'll most likely ditch the leaf springs for some coilovers and bypass shocks, but it's starting to come together.

Gotta put it on hold to do a little work on the TJ and then swing a new drivetrain in the M-715. Then it's a whole rehash for the '68 Gladiator. Hopefully I'll get a lot more time on it after Christmas.

THUMBS UP!! Looks great Christian.

 

Updates!!! We need them Christian!!! you know you want to!

 

Haven't been any updates. I haven't touched that rig in months. At a point where I've gotta buy some expensive parts to move forward and just can't afford it right now.

If you're looking for project pics, here's some stuff I've been working on in the past couple weeks/months


Ranger overdrive/SM465/Atlas II install in the M-715


Front cage


Safari seating


Twin Dana 44 installs on the '68 J2000. Parts Mike HD linkages and crossover steering arm.


Pulling the front brake fitting to remove the residual pressure valve in the J2000 master cylinder for use with the front disc brakes on the swapped in '84 Dodge 1/2 ton front axle.

 

That is one secksay transfer case!
