It says "R&R Customs" on the hood. Doesn't R&R mean Remove and Replace?

The second guy from the left appears to be wearing motocross gear. Strange.

The knucklehead underneath is gunning for a Darwin Award.

I agree with you and clay 100% on that one... darwin award candidate for sure. It could be a trial bike guy they are usually on the rock crawling trails...

Well if that actually ran like that...that thing would be sick at Moab.

EDIT: That kinda looks like BlackPathfinder's rig. He said he "bondo'd" his pathfinder into a CJ7. Just looks kinda like his. Big ass claw tires with beadlocks. Look at his post under Ronin Rigs

Sully's right, it is that guys rig. The R&R Customs logo and everything is the same. Well, someone send Black Pathfinder a PM and ask him how it's being held up.

Oh, and this thread should be titled "poor Pathfinder".

Similar to his rig but that pic has front leafs and claws in the front and blackpathfinder has coilovers and irok's. Similar though. :)

Depends on the date. He may have gotten it after this happened. I'll bet he put on the coils and the seller kept the rims and tires. They look identical.

Nah, that thing is no longer a pathfinder. Kinda like if your buddy were to start dressing like a girl... you probably wouldn't call him a man anymore. :rainfro:

Sweet crawler though seriously.

I was wondering what was holding it up too.

Thanks

That broken pic is at Tellico several years ago. That was the previous owner under it. It was auctually still fairly stable there. At that time the Jeep had no shocks or limit straps and the suspension dropped so far that it broke the upper Y-link and resulted in what you see there. A good lesson learned for him, The Jeep was his first real project and some of the work on it was done when he was 14, it did have some quaility issues. When the Jeep was towed forward the axle straightned back out and they chained it down and towed it out of the woods.


Anyways hes one of my best friends and I picked this up off of him, more or less over time. You might regonize those bead locks and tires on my old pathfinder and such. When I got the Jeep from him the suspension was all removed, and I removed the cage and body lift and pretty much started over with it. It is a very different Jeep in most ways from when he had it as the Tub and transmission is the only thing that hasnt changed. Here is an updated pic.
