This souped-up vintage ride by vigilante_4x4 is giving the OG Jeep a run for its money.
Vigilante 4×4
Unlike with most classic trucks, I was able to climb right into the driver’s seat and pull away without requiring a lecture on firing up the engine or which gauges to keep an eye on. That’s the whole point, Rachel explained as we headed up into the hills.
In fact, not a single inch of the Cherokee’s factory wiring remains. The stock window cranks now control electric regulator motors, the gauges look to be of the period but use modern electronics with a combination of a transmission speed sensor and GPS, just in case a customer installs larger tires. And even the side mirrors have been CNC-machined to prevent the all-too-common rattling of these pieces in the past.
All the revisions add up to the vehicle having a total weight of 5,400 pounds, which is about 900 pounds more than the original Cherokee S. Most of that heft comes from the engine, transmission, and the massive Dana axles, though Vigilante also boxed the frame for additional stiffness.
