Default Baja Style High Speed Pre-Runners

Has anyone seen any Jeeps out there that compete in Baja or anything like high speed desert driving. Or someoen gave it that look. Kinda like how Mopar did with the Ram 1500 "Ram Runner", or the Ford Raptor.

Any pics would be cool

just wonderin thanks!

That's how I'm building up. I'm fabbing up right now additions to weld/bolt onto my RR modular shorty bumper to make a prerunner style bumper. I've also got a RC 4" shocks and 4" 2-door springs on my 4-door. Gave me about 3.5" of lift. I'm saving up for a long arm kit or better handling at higher speeds off road.

Here's how I'm comfortably sitting with 285/70/17 BFG A/T KO tires and the lift.

Cracks me up pre runner Jeep wrangler.....

Equal length arms with coilovers, bypass shocks and hydraulic bumps are about as good as it gets set it up front high to approach whoops make sure back has ample up travel or you'll get porpoising effect and the back tries to come over the front....

Never thought I'd see the day a wrangler for pre running but with 4dr wheelbase its totally doable but weight has to be shed as well.
No heavy bumpers try and get weight centered these things weigh a lot....

My old toyota and I've done a Chevy as well as fabbed another truck too

I actually thought of doing a long travel 4wd set up.
