You still have the CJ-8 and you can bring the AMC Eagle out west
Can you picture "A" driving an AMC Eagle, the heaviest production 4WD ever built?

Sol, congrats on being featured on the Toyota ad in the September issue of Four Wheelers! Little do they know your rig will be so different in a month.
Thanks! When they were putting the article together back in March, I told the interviewer and he was very interested in the project.

That looks like some clean work. Looking forward to the finished product like everyone else, but these updates have been great and I'm going to miss them.

About how much weight do you think you'll have added when all is said and done?

The A/T FJC's are 4295# stock. I'm going to guess that I will be around 5000# with all the modifications I've done so far. I'll definitely be running it by the local scales to see what it weighs once we are done.

Everyone needs a little bling!

Better make sure Jason leaves enough room for the 4.0L supercharger for even more bling!

It will never fit now. I wasn't ever planning on a SC, but if someone wanted one you could go with a shorter shock and lower the shock towers so that the SC would fit. When Jason SAC's his FJC he will have to work around his URD SC. A little creative fabrication and custom intake and he'll make it work.
