It is a jeep just didn't recognise it as its not on fire !!!!!! Can one of the mods please pull this from the "WILD 40" thread as it clearly does "NOT" belong.

heaps of people run them reversed, they find they dig better, or in the rocks, pull the tire onto the rock instead of having the grooves direct the tire off the rock.

Here's my mates 40, not as extreme as the rest but a proud build over many weekends. We cut and shut a ute cab in and eliminated 90% of the rust! Haha
