BleepinJeep Zombie Jeep

[BleepinJeep]

Ok here it is. I waited until I was finished because I knew I wouldn't have the patience to keep this updated frequently. Anyway, I figured it was time to put a build thread/ photo thread / video thread (if it will let me), out there for those who are not familiar with my videos and YT channel.

This is the Zombie Jeep and was built as a doomsday preppers survival vehicle for the zombie apocalypse. Or I guess it would be a good overlander as well.

I have made a video for just about every modification that I've done on this thing from bone stock to as it sits. So I'll put some photos and videos here or maybe just the YT playlist which is just a list/compliation of all the YT vids of the build in one YT frame... will this forum let me embed that??



It is a 1990 Jeep Cherokee XJ with 3.5" of lift, 31" tires, a Dana 44 XJ rear axle, a 32 gallon gas tank, a 1200W inverter, a custom relay and fuse box, JCR sliders - 1/4 panel - and rear bumper, a heavily customized ARB front bumper, Dual batteries, rancho shocks, a hood snorkel, upgraded brake booster, LED's all around, custom cargo divider and shelf, viair onboard air, riot/zombie protection all around, and I'm sure a bunch of other things I'm missing.

Some of the Sponsors are JcrOffroad, Wurton, Viair, Rough Country, Sunset Metal Fab, and Applical.

Here are some more pics:



What led to the smoke^ We had a slight accident during the photo shoot after pouring a little too much... Don't try this at home!!



The rear^



Sometimes it draws the zombies out^



So when that happens it's helpful to be prepared^

And those are only a few, I have many more videos so I'll leave the link to the playlist if you are interested in seeing them all:^

Ok, well I think that's all I have I guess. I'd be happy to answer any questions about the zombie jeep (if you have any). I'm not real sure how to use it but I just signed up for photobucket so I'll leave that link here if you'd like to see more pics: http://s1382.photobucket.com/user/BleepinJeep/slideshow/

Thanks,

Matt

I feel guilty for finding this kind of cool. But I feel guilty every time I read a zombie book too. Well done. It looks good.

 

[highspeed]

Pretty freaking cool. I like you roof rack build, going to go very similar with mine as well. You always have great ideas and diy videos. Welcome to

 

[Tony_SS]

Great work! Thanks for all the vids too. They've helped a lot on my end.

 

[farmer xj]

i love it !

I hate it. Zombies, vampires, hunger games- hate them all. This kind of crap demonstrates the diminished intellectual power of American adults and facilitates a culture of mindless disinterest in the real issues facing the planet. And apparently it also gives people another reason to arm themselves? Waste of time, resources, brainpower, oxygen.

 

[DrMoab]

What's wrong with people arming themselves?

Someone pissed in your cheerios.

Typical lib.

 

[travisk]

Thanks for all the YouTube how-to videos. I'm pretty sure your Dana 30 axle nut video saved me a breaker bar and a broken face.

Looks like your jeep has already offended one mindless zombie. Stay safe.

 

[Ghost]

I like it. You should call "The Walking Dead" and see if they would use it with a prep-er type character in the future! I have seen several Jeeps on their show. Specifically XJ's.

 

[Fore Wheeler]

Very cool!

 

[DrMoab]

I give this thread :05of5:

 

[x-jay vision]

I appreciate this jeep and all the work you put in, but I don't like it. Having said that, I will say that it looks like you had a lot of fun with it, and that's what this hobby is all about, so great job.

its ok guys...he's from Portland. I find it ironic that he's wasting his own time and oxygen typing that post. Nuff said about this guy.

Actually, I have more to say. The rig looks really good! The window guards are removable? Looks movie-ready!

So you are probably one of those people that believe that we should spend our lives being a dull boring lump and avoid anything of mild interest until we die and rot in the ground for all eternity...... :nono:

Keep Portland weird!

I approve of ten spoke wheels, but you needs center caps.

Go save a Damn whale or something.....sorry your life is a droll, meaningless existence!
