44" Jeep

[jak]

Thought that you would like to see this 44" Modified Jeep from Iceland.





There are extra gastanks in the sidesteps.



The front axel is a modifies Dana 60 with mecanism that makes it possible to deflate or inflate the tires from inside of the Jeep while driving



The rear axel is also a Dana 60 equiped in the same way as the front axel. On the back you can see two shovels and a snow anchore.



The Jeep is powered by a tuned Buick 455 cid Big Block engine.



The cocpit. On the right you can see the pressure gauges for the airbag suspention. In the middle under the dashboard you can see five gauges for the pressure in each individual tire and one gauge showing the pressure in the airpressure system.

Hi

Unfortunatly this is not my Jeep.

The Snow Anchor is used to fasten the wire from the Winch to pull the jeep up when it has got stuck.

The anchor digs itself into the snow/glacier when the Winch starts to pull.

Are you the builder/owner?
Any close-up pics of your inflating system?
Are you able to lift/lower the Jeep with the airbag-suspension?
Is it Hydroboost bakes you have?
The Snow anchor, please explain the use of this.

Hopefully it runs with some kind of hydroboost for those 44" It looks so on the engine pic
Snow anchor, I believe the anchor is used for self rescuing when you are stock. Not too many trees to hook the Vinsj on there. Same way as I use on glacier for rescuing if folks have fall down in a crevasse, if used right it can hold many tons of weight.

Assumed the snow-anchor was a rescue device, but can’t see any winch on jak’s big 44”, so I just wonder if there are other ways to use it.

Here have someone really got into building an Icelander Jeep.
Like the axle job, Dana 60 with the possibility to deflate or inflate the tires, nice
Personally I think the relative small CJ-7 here has grown way to big & wide. But of course this works when driving on the glacier back on Island.

Sorry.

I haven´t any information on this ForRunner



I didn´t find the films I took of the 44" Patrol in my privat film archives at home.

The films are probably at the editorial office of DV newspaper because I was writing an article on the modification of the Patrol for the paper.

I will try to find the fotos at the Paper.
