Man, Ian really loved those Classic 2s. They ended up on more than a few rigs.

Excellent 👌 ! ....

What you have done is a pet project desire for me as I am sick and tired of the JK with all those little niggly CEL codes and electical issues and JLs are the same. Want a simple, capable machine, with AC, but as per my JK I would still maintain a DI LT Chevy engine and 8-10 speed auto. No need for the double case arrangement as 1st gear is 4.55:1. But my estimate came out to about $50k to do almost the same as yours. What was your final budget if you can say? And where does one get a major components list for the build?

Small 2car garage! Looks like a 60x60.

Sometimes one must wander if they’re able to do any off road projects that isn’t branded a Jeep

[@callmesomething1425]

Why though? If you started with something else by the time you made it good it would basically be a jeep anyhow... I'm kidding (kinda lol)

@@callmesomething1425 Jeeps get beat like a dead horse being project vehicles to customize for off road use like building a 5.0L Mustang for track use. Imagine if an 84-86 CUCV M1009 Blazer benefitting from some attention, or some other hardly used vehicle. It’d make for a nice change of pace

[@yesode4201]

You must have never driven a Jeep or you wouldn’t ask a silly question.

@@yesode4201 I’ve driven a couple of Jeeps and I’d rather take my chances with a Subaru

Why do all these build shows do a "small 2-car garage" build when obviously they are using way more space? Really, a frame, a body, an engine, a transmission, a transfer case, front and rear axles all inside unmounted on the floor at the same time? All that, plus tool cabinets, work benches, storage racks? My 2-car garage has actual walls. Drop the dumb "garage" premise, and just show the simple, budget ways to do the stuff. Or build an actual fully-enclosed garage and do it.
