Sleeper Jeep

 1978 Jeep Cj7 Front View

Tony Sleeper of Flushing, Michigan, drives this '78 Jeep CJ-7 daily. He and his dad built it from the frame up over the course of four years. The drivetrain is pretty much stock, but does feature a potent 258 4.2L, which was bored 0.060 over. This powerplant also has a Crane Cam, an Offenhouser intake, a Holley 390 carburetor, Hedman headers, a Power Master alternator, and a DUI distributor. Power is sent to a rebuilt T-150 three-speed transmission and a rebuilt Dana 20 transfer case with twin-stick shifters. The Dana 30 front axle is stock for now, but the rear AMC 20 is trussed and houses Moser one-piece axles and an Ox Locker. The suspension is a BDS 2.5-inch lift. The tires are 33-inch Super Swamper SSRs wrapped around 15-inch Eaton steel wheels.

Desert Assault Vehicle

 2005 Dodge Ram 3500 Drivers Side View

Steven Boehm of Bullhead City, Arizona, romps this '05 Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 daily. With help from the Cummins turbodiesel and a KORE Unlimited suspension system, Steven tames even the wildest of desert trails with ease. A set of Glassworks Unlimited fiberglass fenders and bedsides give this rig a truly unique look. The whole truck is coated top to bottom with Line-X. The rocker panels, along with the bumpers and Laramie grille were coated in black for aesthetics. The rig rides on 37-inch Toyo MT tires on forged Center Line wheels. The front axle was trussed by Hughes Racing Components. The axles feature 4.10:1 gearing, and an Eaton E-Locker handles traction up front.

There's also an Optima battery, an electric fan, and a Hypertech chip. For lift, Casey runs a 6-inch Rough Country setup along with a 3-inch body lift.
