My getto-fabulous air intake mod to get rid of the stock airbox.




I love the crank case breather filter I found, getting tired of sucking oil back into the intake of the engine! I had to get rid of the stock airbox because it wouldn't fit in with the CJ grille. I only paid $69 for this whole setup at Advance, including the breather filter. I just need to get a K&N that I can slap on the end of the intake tube.

Barefoot gas pedal and amber turn signal bulbs in place of the clear under-dash bulbs.

I converted the factory swing out tailgate to a drop down tailgate using the factory hinges, flush mounted tail lights, and my favorite, a mini cooler in the dead space behind the passengers rear tire. I cut a 6x9 rectangle hole and then boxed the inside with 1x1 tubing and covered it n sheet metal. Then it's insulated with adhesive insulation. Big enough to hold 12+ cans with ice comfortably.

Well mine is unique just from being a Renegade as there don't seem to be many of those around, and even less that get wheeled. But most of all its my paint job that makes mine unique. It has a few other unique mods as well, note the exhaust in the first picture.

I made a tire carrier that is inside the back of my YJ. I never used the fold and tumble. I didn't like the tire hanging on the tailgate and didn't want a swing away tire carrier. My solution was......



Here is how I went about cobbling it together;

Life is not what it's supposed to be. It's what it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

I think we should place all of our elderly in prisons. They will get a shower a day, video surveillance in case of any problems, three hot well balanced tailor made meals a day respecting their religious beliefs and nutritional needs, access to a library, computers, TVs, gym.
Put criminals in nursing homes. They will have cold meals, lights off at 7pm, one bath a week, live in a smaller room AND will be forced to pay $4,000- $8,000 a month!
It's pretty damn sad that we treat prisoners better than the elderly.

toyota diffs front (with longfields) and rear , toyota t-case 4.7-1 low

toyota g54 transmission (the trans ax-5 is based off) with ax-5 bellhousing bolted to, also ax-5 input shaft swaped in to complete 2.5 L to toyota drivetrain conversion

explorer rear springs

2.5L propane powered.

kinked tubework from too much thrashing and rolling

non bedlined interior, cause in my opinion the look of smooth painted or scratched up sheet metal is better. and gotta save wieght
