Most Jeeps are for one of two things... The
trail or the street. If you run the trails you tend to
modify your rig and there are some things that are just not added to
a "trail rig"... So I've been told. Who
says you can't have the best of both
worlds? 
I had an idea when I began
making changes to this Jeep that I could build her up
for the trail yet keep as much of the street
sophistication and style as possible. In fact, I wanted
her to be a total surprise on the trail. A Jeep that
looked more like it belonged on the street than off-road
yet could tear up some of those 3 diamond trails just as
easily, and quickly, as her stockier,
beefier, "trail-rig" siblings.
Originally named
"TazJeep", I bought this 1998 Jeep Wrangler Sport (TJ)
as a used vehicle in March of 1999 at
13K miles. We later discovered the 2" ProComp lift and
ES3000 Shocks, AR-23 American Racing rims, and 31x10.50
BFG MT Tires. Check out the Wishlist
for all the changes! February 24th, 2001 she earned
her new name of MudTaz at JNT's Powder Puff Run at Gilmer, Texas
as she won the trophy
for the Muddiest Jeep! Enjoy
our site and be sure to add it to your
favorites. We
update often with new pictures,
new mods, more ideas and changes, as we continue to build
the ultimate Jeep for living in both worlds--the Daily
Driver,
and the Weekend Warrior! |
