2009 RHINO ZJ Climbs over 4' + Rock

[MrJdmposer]

4wheel steering?!!? good gracious!

[RHINOZJ]

@MrJdmposer: It's a whole other beast with rear steer.

[MrJdmposer]

@RHINOZJ

I just checked out your website, great build! Is she still "kickin"?

[RHINOZJ]

@MrJdmposer: Yep, sure is. Thanks for checking us out. I need to update the site and videos when I can catch a break.

[punchritch]

Nice rig, I like the cherokee's and the fourunners!!

[RHINOZJ]

@punchritch : Thanks.  4Runners are pretty cool too.

[punchritch]

@RHINOZJ Thanks for the reply, most of the time I don't get a reply. I'm working on a 93 toyota 4runner now. I got the outter frame finished this week, but still along ways to go.

[RHINOZJ]

@punchritch: That's awesome on your progress. Keep me posted on your build, I look forward to seeing the finished project.

[300zxturbox2]

FUCKING COOL!!

[RHINOZJ]

@300zxturbox2: Thanks.

[pclutch]

i can do that shit in my wifes honda pilot

[RHINOZJ]

@pclutch: Bring it out, we'd love to watch. Now that would be awesome.

[ika6667]

@pclutch You don't have a wife, and if you did he would be driving a Geo Metro.

[BurkeBugeye]

do you know what psi your tires are at??



[RHINOZJ]

@BurkeBugeye: At this time I think I was down to 15psi. But I'm running dual bead locks as well. I've been at 0psi and you couldn't tell the difference between 15psi and 0psi. Those 44" Boggers are pretty thick.

[rascaldk15]

what r u running in that for drivetrain?

[RHINOZJ]

@rascaldk15: 5.7 HEMI, stock trans, Atlas II 4 Speed, 2.5 Ton Rockwells and custom Drive Shafts.

[transam1818]

that rocks fun we went over it in r bronco we r at rocks and valleys almost every weekend

[RHINOZJ]

@transam1818 That's awesome. Glad to hear it. Keep on wheeling.

[bigassfordsd]

Out of curiosity, how do you keep from tearing up the drive shaft doing this?

[RHINOZJ]

@bigassfordsd If you watch closeley, the lower control arms ride over the rock. They protect the drive shaft 90% of the time. We were able to tuck the shafts up high due to the "Top Loading Rockwells". Thanks for watching.

[transam1818]

@bigassfordsd skid plates and a 3in solid drive shaft

[Ih8PavementDotCom]

Haha.. there's Ron... Saw this ZJ pulling the Subie in the Jalopnik article. Nice rig and by nice I mean AWESEOME.

[RHINOZJ]

Yep, that's Ron. Telling me to bump it and just go. LOL!!!

Thanks for following the rig, I'm glad you like it. It is definitely one heck of a ride.

[scrogathon]

nice job, trucks badass!

[RHINOZJ]

Thanks, it's a lot of fun too.

[CRF100MAN]

that trucks a beast lol

[RHINOZJ]

Thanks, we don't treat it any other way either.

[CRF100MAN]

@RHINOZJ what size tires are those??

[RHINOZJ]

44 x 19.5 x 16 Interco Super Swamper Boggers with some minor grooving. (we took off half of the small lugs on the outside fronts.)

[stevieray09]

@RHINOZJ is it street legal?

[RHINOZJ]

@stevieray09 Not as it sits, but I only have to do a few things to make it street legal. I have driven it in prades and during an event on an island without hassel as it is now, but if I was going to drive it more on the local streets I would have to make a few changes to be legal.

[a350350]

Wow that sounds like one awesome 4.0L I-6!!!

[RHINOZJ]

I guess I should have warned you about the 2006 5.7L HEMI under the hood.

Oops, my bad.
