Jeep Cherokee "Militarized Monster truck" 1995 - Just released for sale by a company that specialises in the supply of Military vehicles to the film and advertising industries is this 1999 Jeep Cherokee has literally had thousands spent on it transforming it into what you see here today.
Its 4 litre engine has been converted to run on LPG using a "Tinley-Tex" system and a huge custom built LPG tank. The Automatic gearbox is standard but please note the front prop shaft has been removed so effectively now a 2wd, easy enough to source and fit another but not with the Jeep.
Some of the other modifications follow: Full internal roll cage, full length roof rack with spot lights, custom front bumper equipped with a remote control winch, 4" Rancho lift kit and high rate shocks all round, custom swing away rear wheel carrier with ground anchor, custom rear bumper with heavy duty tow hitch, new heavy duty battery with a cut out switch in rear. 5 nearly new 35" mud tyres. Plus much more.
Bodywork is very solid and carries various army related petrol cans, graphics, flag pole etc all to make this truck look authentic. Interior has camouflage covers on the seats (the original grey leather underneath is fine just needing some cleaning and colonising) all other interior comforts are in place and considered to all work. Mechanically this is described as all good, driving well on the road with no problems and will be presented with a full 1 years MOT.
A real "Tough" looking Jeep for those military shows that with the re-fitment of the front prop will also make an excellent 44 off roader. Now surplus to requirements so being offered at a fraction of what just the up-grades and modifications have cost, not including the purchase of the vehicle in the first place.
Apologies for the poor pictures but as you can see things were a bit tight in there and some "humongous" great Soviet lorry was blocking the exit and would not start. The vendor will send better ones when he can. Thanks.
