A very “throwback” 1980’s build. Complete with the Renegade decals, all the proper CJ7 factory badges, and all chrome accents. Just like it was straight out of 1985.

Fully torn to the ground and re-built by Bent Motorsports for King of the Hammers Every Man Challenge 2024.

Full PRP interior. The seats are Custom tan ostrich PRP Comp Elite seats. We designed these on their website. The custom built dash is also wrapped in the same PRP ostrich vinyl to match. The dash is complete with all the proper Autometer gauges to be street driven. It is actually street legal, fully insured and registered! A SP9100 Switch Pros unit to control all of our baja designs lights, turn signals, and lockers. For race navigation, we have a HDS7 Lowrance system. For race day communications we have a PCI Race Radio and coms.

Front and rear axles are Dana 44’s off of a Jeep JK, hence why it's so wide. We fully stripped down and fabbed these axles to make them work with the CJ leaf spring set up. We are spring over, utilizing a stock Jeep YJ leaf spring. Ideally we would like to have custom Deavers made, but we ran out of time before King of the Hammers. These are mounted on a WFO Concepts leaf spring hanger. All revolution gears and axles. Custom Crown Performance brake lines, A custom built drag link with Rare Parts tie rod ends, and Rare Parts dual load carrying ball joints. Our CJ has FOX 2.5 shocks on all 4 corners tuned by Ian at Wheel Every Weekend, as well as a FOX pass through steering stabilizer.

We're running Nitto Trail Grappler 35’s. We are limited to 35’s in the 4600 class, however we are going to run some Nitto 37’s in the off season. These Nitto Tires are mounted on Method Race Wheels 105-V3 Gold beadlocks; arguably the star of the show.

All lights are Baja Designs. The LP6 headlights, cab lights, reverse lights, rock lights, chase lights,and fog lights are Baja Designs.

As far as recovery goes, we have a Warn VR Evo 10s winch and a Factor 55 Ultrahook.

In the back, we’ve got a Fuel Safe fuel cell, our spare, and some extra tools. We created a custom exhaust that actually exists where the Fuel door would have originally been.

The power train is driven by the stock inline 6, an Anaheim gear built T18 transmission and a Behemoth D300 Colossus transfer case.




Maybe immaculate would be a better word? An absolute showstopper of a Jeep either way. We knew we were going to love it, we just didn't anticipate how many other people were going to love it too...
