1986 Jeep CJ7 - Built For Business

The interior was crafted by both Jeff and Joe. They Rhino-lined the tub and added Super Seats. The dash is full of Auto Meter gauges to monitor the engine and drivetrain. The new custom rollcage and front stinger were also Jeff's handiwork. The final powdercoating was completed by George at Fargen Industries of San Jose, California.

After nine years of building this rig and a custom-fabrication business, if you ask Jeff what he has learned along the way, he'll tell you it's to "do it once and do it right the first time." Jeff has now not only built his ultimate trail vehicle and rock rig but has also accomplished building a well-known Jeep fabrication shop along the way. Keep your eyes open for this rig on the trail, and if you spot it ask Jeff any question you want. We're sure he will stop and take the time to help you.

Talk about overkill in fabrication, this rig not only has rock sidebars, it also has custom-built steel rocker panels. Better to be overbuilt than underbuilt when you're playing hard out on the trails.	The strategically mounted Power Tank fills all of Jeff's air source needs.	For the powerplant, Jeff has a worked-over 4.2L engine turning out about 270 hp - more than enough power and torque to get the Jeep where it needs to go.
Jeff fabricated his own four-link system to mount the Rock Jock 60 in the rear.	As a fabricator, you never leave home without a welder. Jeff's Premier Power Welder is mounted behind the passenger body panel for easy access on the trail. He's welded more rigs on the trail with this little unit than he can count.	The rollcage is fabricated with just as much overkill as the rest of this CJ-7. Notice all the crossbracing and extra tubes to keep it from bending no matter what angle it takes a hit at.
The custom dash holds the basic Auto Meter gauges and the stereo.	This CJ-7 has the rockcrawling look even when it's parked. Notice how the complete rollcage and front stinger are all tied together for strength.
