Would have been nice to actually see it on the trail. Is it just a show piece or will it wheel?

Ok... just so you know... the Liberator is parked at Camp Jeep in WI. I took a really closer look at everything - the Spare is sitting inside the KJ on the back - They took the seat totally out from the back side an put 2 individual seats there and probably moved it a bit to the inside. It has so many parts that are actually nice additions that will be too long to explain, so tomorrow I'll take some pics and post them.
Talked to one of the guys there and they said that they are going ahead with the 4 inch lift.
If you see the CV joints under there, they are completely straight.
Wait for the pics - I'll post them Sunday when I get back from Camp...
It is sweeet.... no question about it.

"The rear axle of the Liberator is a Dana 44 straight from Venezuela containing an air locker out of a Jeep TJ Rubicon."

The new Rubicons, at least, have two miniature air compressors supplying front and rear air lockers.

Quote:
Press the dash-mounted rocker switch once and a low-pressure actuator pump mechanically locks the rear axle.

Title of the article says:

"This one-off Liberty wasn't built for sorority girls & shopping malls."

From the article:

the rear tire that normally sits underneath the Jeep is now located in the cargo area.

No

Very cool.
I think that is a new set-up.

There's no 2 ways about it, its a sweet rig. I think the 35"s are a bit over the top & they start to compromise the look of the KJ. 33"s would have set it off nicely me thinks :?:
