I think the Jeep XJs are the best place to start any project from mud to rocks to sand... There easy to find and not to pricey to buy and build..

I always preferred the ZJ Grand Cherokee's over the XJ's. Both cool, I just love the styling and ease of doing a little lift to get some decent aggressive tires on 'em..

lol when this was filmed, they couldn’t find a shitbox……

Jessi combs was so awesome. A racecar driver, car fabricator, and a mythbusters host

Listening to Ian talk I thought, "that guy's Canadian" lo and behold, he's from Perth Ontario! Good ol Canadian boy like myself!!

Awesome thanks guys 🎉😊

RIP Jesse ☹️

July 27, 1980 - August 27, 2019 Combs died after crashing a jet-powered high-speed race car in southeastern Oregon while attempting to better her own four-wheel land speed record. She was posthumously awarded the female land-speed world record by Guinness in June 2020

Love them xj

I miss her she and him made great team

Xj is the perfect starter

Many of these boys are STILL running down here. If you haven’t been to the Swamp Buggy Races, GO!!! It really is an experience.

This is the first thing I've ever seen Combs in, and I already love her. Glad she made the most of the time she was given, tragically short though it was.

Oof, they tore everything down in the front end, and didn’t bother to swap in some heavy duty ball joints and new ujoints. Or even a wheel bearing for peace of mind. That old thing must been worn

Gunpowder & Gasoline - might help if you included the original broadcast date of this video.

I love it!!!!

First performance mod I did on my XJ was pull out that damn door ajar buzzer. Best mod ever.

I think it changed from a BUZZ to a BEEP in '97.. not sure which one is more annoying 😂

Cuz looks like guy from Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives 😂😂😂

Looks so much better.

I do not miss television shows.

Name and place where the park is at?

Realize y’all this is not as easy as your are watching. Yes I watched it

Where can I find the rest of the video series I am so into jeep speep....rip jessi love to see these memories of her doing what we all love

Rip jessi. We love ya

Would jeep speed allow a dana 44swapped with trusses n skiplates and chromoly axles? Or any other axle swaps?

I felt sad when I saw that Jessi Combs was in the video, never met her but I got really familiar with her from watching her so much. Rest In Peace Jessi

I know it's been awhile...but they bought that nice XJ for $3500. Those days are gone... 😢

Nah man you can still get them. They run forever that 35 might be five now though inflation and shit. But if you're going to do that many mods you might as well get one a little more beat up. I paid $2,000 for a Cherokee limited though back in 2001!

Wow 1st time watching this and looked up who jessi combs was. Great episode with a great cast

Back in the day when every show was "Extreme" 😆

The video has a problem. The ratio is bad and makes everything shorter and wider. I know neither Ian or Jessie are tall, but they are not that wide. I tried cinema mode, but it's it's not enough.

If I leave in a headliner, I'll try not to make burn holes haha

Why didn't they choose a base one ;( that XJ has so many goodies

Cant find the shocks anywhere

@@bmstylee Fabtech does not have any shock listed for an XJ on their site. They probably have another shock they used for this racing series but didn't cross reference it for the XJ. And since the show didn't mention any 'real' specifics there is no way to find out what shock to buy. Unless you find a friendly Jeeper willing to share the secret...

@@005elise Fox and King make solid shocks as well. These episodes are near 20 years old some of them. Technology for something as simple as a bypass shock has evolved substantially. However specs are not necessarily helpful given each build is different and what they have may not fit your needs.

I think this video is like 10 years old.

But, there is an even easier way to do this. Simply inherit lots of money, buy a shop with a hired mechanic. Find an old jeep, pay your mechanic. Whew, all that work.
