TJ With Dual Rear Axles

Unread post by Kurt »

I spotted the oddest looking TJ or YJ today in Brookline, NH. :-o
Couldn't get my phone out fast enough before it left the parking lot and headed north up RT 13. :sad:
It looked kinda like the one below with dual rear axles under it.
Difference was the guy had a normal cab and hard top on it and the spliced on section was open like a pickup truck bed.
The job was done really well. Sharp looking and cool sounding rig.

Going to keep an eye out for it in the future.

The red one? I thought that was a YJ. I've seen it before as well. Looks legit.

Yup - the red one.
It could have been a YJ. I only got to see it as it pulled away and turn onto the road.

I've seen it up close. It's weird. Kind of cool, but not really for me. I believe the 3rd axle is free flowing. Nothing making it turn other than the front 2 axles. Lol

Pretty sure it's a TJ.

That's the one!

I assumed one of the rear axles was not a driving axle.

There is a guy here in Eleington , (near the Rally site) has a Chevy Blazer extended with a Suburban rear part and it drives both rear axles. Has -H bar suspension like a dump truck. Air activated splitter . In a big rig its called power divider . That whole car looks like GM built it. FjR68
