REBEL OFF ROAD

At the Bunker, JKs take most of the spotlight, but believe it or not we get quite a few TJs as well so we thought we’d post up this prime example of an earlier model Wrangler.

This beauty is Fire Rescue 1, a build which we fell in love with from the start. Our client came to us with a 2001 TJ that his father, a Fire Chief in Seaside, CA had passed on to him. In honor of his father he decided to beef this Jeep up.

When it came in at the beginning of the week it looked like most other stock TJs, yet by the end of the week it was a dirt throwing, rock crushing, topless eye grabber that certainly can’t be duplicated. She is wearing some of the best gear you can add to a Wrangler.

Here’s the rap sheet:

Suspension:
- Teraflex 4” 8 Flexarm System W/9550 Shocks – This was the first TJ lift kit on the market and remains one of the best to this day.

Armor:
- Poison Spyder TJ/LJ Rockbrawler Front Bumper w/ Brawler Bar – If you want to uparmor your TJ or LJ, Poison Spyder will do it right, every time. Comprised of 3/16” CNC laser-cut and precision brake-formed plate steel with a 120” wall DOM tubing on the brawler bar gives Fire Rescue the one up on any obstacle that stands in her way.
- Rock-Slide Engineering Step Slider with LED – this high quality rock rail has a motorized side step that deploys for entering, exiting, or hanging on for dear life as you narrowly escape the apocalypse. Rock-Slide Engineering’s meticulous attention to detail produced a serious rock slider with a state of the art and exceptionally durable motorized side step that makes climbing in and out of a Jeep so comfortable that even your grandmother can hit the trails with you. Buckle up Grandma!
Interior:
- Corbeau LG1s up front and a Corbeau 40” Baja Bench with headrests in the back
- Rugged Ridge Grab Handles
- Rugged Ridge Roll Bar Cover Kit
- BedTred Front and Rear Tub kit including a heat shield

Wheels and Tires:
- Method Racing Wheels 101 Beadlocks powder coated black
- 35x12.5R17 Toyo RTs

Recovery:
- Warn Zeon 8-S w/ 100’ Spydura Synthetic Rope – This is Warns newest generation of winch. Don’t let the clean looks fool you, underneath those smooth lines is a serious workhorse of a winch with improved durability, performance, and upgraded internal components. With an 8,000lb pulling capacity you could confidently winch out an F-350!

Accessories:
- JW Speaker Evo2 8700 with anti-flicker harness – These are a drop in replacement for the standard 7” headlights. They offer superior visibility, safety, and durability when compared to standard TJ headlights.
- Rigid Industries Dually Spot Light – These guys speak for themselves. Let them light your way
- Rancho Tube Doors with Red Skins
- Spider Web Shade for top and sides
- Last but certainly not least for Fire Rescue is a fire extinguisher

Add a set of custom decals featuring some of the builds manufacturers and vendors, and this TJ is ready to take fire watch, wherever that may be.
