This is the underdog.
Originally met Jay years ago when he wanted us to do some maintenance and setup a reliable “beach cruiser” rig. At the time he had no intentions of hardcore off-roading and after his first trip with us in Ocala, it was downhill. Jay ended up buying JK44 Rubi axles, a long arm Clayton kit, beadlocks, and 40’s! This was the rig we took on the Ultimate LJ Adventure in 2021.
