JC Jeep Chassis for LJ

Typical Lead Time: 4 - 6 weeks

The All New Wide Open Design Jeep LJ Chassis has been long awaited. Just like our other Jeep Chassis', this chassis is designed to be a true cross-over between a modified Jeep trail rig, and a full tube buggy. The JC provides the comforts of a full body trail rig with the performance of a buggy. The JC can be purchased as just a bare chassis or with a few different options. All selected options are fully welded in place.

Note: Does not include the tub. Does not include suspension components, axles, wheels, ect. Only the frame and selected available options.

Hammer Down for Longer

Our Heavy Duty (HD) design places 1.75 x .188 wall tubing in the high impact areas where extra strength is needed.

A chassis built entirely out of .120 wall tubing will keep occupants safe in a roll over, but leaves the chassis vulnerable to getting dented and bent. The increased strengthening of a few key impact areas allows the chassis to have a better chance of remaining straight and is less likely to dent from sudden impacts. A heavy duty chassis only adds a minimum amount of weight and you’ll have a chassis that will hold up for years to come.

Sides are Protected with Replaceable .188 Tubing Rock Sliders

.188 wall rock sliders act as protection to the sides of your Jeep LJ. They also double as a step to ease entry and exit from your buggy if you have not chosen to have doors installed. We’ve built these into the chassis that if they do get beat up, they can be easily cut off and replaced with new .188 Tubing

Adequate Rear End Room for Fuel Cell and Tool Box/Cooler

Easily fit a 15 gallon fuel cell and a fabricated tool box in the rear end. Have fun trail riding and bring along a few tools that you may need. Or use the tool box as a cooler for your beverages and food.
