It's the name of a Facebook group a friend just came across. It looks to worth joining. Some of it is awesome. Some...less so.

Jeep missed an opportunity with this. This is a decent set of wheels and tires away from awesome.

The ultimate race trailer?

There is a fair amount of hideous to go with the good though.

I've seen trikes like that for years. What's with that? Never, ever driven by someone under 65. Is it the same mental degradation of fake convertible tops and slacks hiked up to your nipples, that makes those conversions seem acceptable?

I'm just hoping they started with a wrecked car.

That XJ(MJ?) would look really cool with different wheels and tires and narrower axles.

I might be a little afraid of it. It is a great idea, but without hydraulic jacks on the corners to prevent it from rocking on the suspension I'd feel concern using it

You mean you've never woken up and thought "what if I combined a car and a motorcycle in a way that didn't involve the positive attributes of either one"?

I used to USE one of those lifts.

They need a good 3-4" of space under the car before you can lift, because of leverage. The lower the lift, the less leverage the hydraulic ram has. Drop a car all the way down and the lift will go "Nope".

And yes, they are fairly rickety.
