    Riley I think home or shade tree is a bit too much for this sort of mod. When we tried to do it here in Phoenix the installer had ZERO docs from the company nas to where things went and why, subsequently we had a variety of problems and issues that could have been sorted by the company in...

    Riley The Brute is currently in the paint shop so look for a photo shoot report around mid May. Thoughts? Well there are a load of them. First and foremost, just send it to Coty Built and have the conversion done. Trying to do it here without the benefits of their staff is just silly. We are...

    Dan Thanks, its a real pleasure to drive and even more fun to play with off road. Its on the lift right now getting the rear lockers and a few more things added on for March and Moab. Add to that paint and a new sound system and we will have a head turner for sure! Yetters

    Me Too Big A Yep, me too. Long road to go to get it "finished" if there actually is something like that for a Jeep. But i will do my best to show off the efforts of the guys at Coty Built and the stars of the project so far. Just want to see a few trials and get dirty! Yetters

    Jake Not only will it be as reliable, it will be more. This is a purpose built rig with the diesel providing more power for less weight and more range due to the diesel. I am going to use it for a Tierra del Fuego to USA trip so having the both factors had to be considered. Has it been a...
