Another Australian fan drooling over such an awesome rig! There is no better build on the planet to date, and absolutely nothing I would change! Absolutely love it!! Everything American in Australia costs over 50% more most of the time, making builds like this impossible sadly. This is the ultimate build. The Jk body, the best diesel, portal axles and all the rest. Absolutely perfect Rig. On behalf of every off road enthusiast worldwide, please build another!
I live in Australia and this truck is so awesome I actually based my SCX10 RC Rock crawler build off of this truck, the Cummins is amazing, I love this engine, I would love to do a conversion into my GU Nissan Patrol. This would be my dream truck hands down, but sadly Australia has similar laws to Nazi Germany when it comes to cars and we can't have anything over a 6 inch lift with a full engineering cert too, it's ridiculous, I love the USA for it's tuff 4wd's, thanks for such an awesome video walk around of my favourite offroad vehicle Martin and may the that beautiful 6BT sing many songs to it's new owner.
WOW! I am in the market for a Jeep - it has been my dream ride all my life and I am ready to get one. I have to say, this is the best Jeep ive ever seen......its insane! Perfection!!Its a bity we cant get all the mods here in SA.............! Job well done!Looking forward to seeing your next build!
David (The guy who bought it in DR) bought this rig to off road the SHIT out of it. The DR hosts some of the toughest off road events on the planet, there is a reason he bought this over everything else on the market. So as for those of you who think this is a purposeless piece of junk you have no idea what you're talking about. This jeep is top of the line at every corner and yes he can afford this because he OWNS MBRP crazy what hard work can do huh? People hating on him because he can afford the best of the best and you can barely afford 33's for your rust bucket... maybe if you quit bitching about his life and got on with your own maybe you'd have a fraction of what he has. AWESOME BUILD Martin congrats! RattleTrap will be missed by all of us in the Jeep community and we are looking forward to seeing what David has in store for it! Thanks!
wow, that was 28 minute nutshell...awesome stuff, don't know anything about offroading, or it's part suppliers, but i's amazing how you can turn post office jeep into something special.
Is there more? I want to see the cruise in Huntsville!! Or how about some wheeling footage from Domican? I'll volunteer to go take said footage.... haha Good work MBRP keep it up!
Depending where you are, but for the most part, the Dominican is all dirt, mud, and mountain roads. Vacationed there several times and Jeep / ATV tours are extremely popular. Settled in the touristy areas by many French, they are making loads of money. This is probably an excursion company owners... just a shot in the dark.
i remember seeing an article about this being the baddest jeep in the dominican republic. ive been wondering what were the specs on that beast and i just found this vid now
love this awesome BEAST!! I see it all over facebook from the pages I follow and on instagram. I have a 2005 Colorado ext cab z71 4x4 and wanting to rhino line/ line x the bottom sides off my truck and the fenders. also looking for custom bumpers, LED light bar mount for the roof, and probably will bw installing a 4" suspension lift and 2" body lift.... finally found this youtube page!
Thanks, I rewatched the video and heard him call it linex. Hadn't heard of it before but googling around I saw people are doing some pretty interesting things with the stuff.
That's what I was thinking. Nothing on it belongs to a Jeep but the shell. Its like if someone made a sandwich that was 95% shit and 5% ham...Would you be willing to consider it a ham sandwich...
What's the exhaust setup? Did you go with Flowmaster?? Hahahahah just kidding! Love my MBRP on my F150, just put a 3" single on my father's 2021 Ranger and it sounds pretty damn awesome for a 4 banger. Nice tone outside, and super mellow and quite inside!
O man, you should it driven it at least around the corner so we could see how it really looks in action, but any way is a master piece, we'll done.... 👍👍👍
+John Smitymcjensenburgermcham you can't! It's sprayed at high temp it's basically a blend between rubber and epoxy is probably as simple as I can explain it. But you have to go to a line-X store to have it applied
You guys are great! What was the negotiable price set on? I actually spoke to you in the beginning of the year about the suspension parts on the phone very helpful. first would it be better to have the jeep built by your company then to farm out and hunt for the parts. which cost factor would be better If you were starting with just a stock jeep and stock motor. what would the price be with the cummins insulted? I'm sure everyone is wondering If someone was to do this project in stages including the body stretching. I hope that everything is something anyone is able to buy and will be manufactured and not just one off's like when the project was started in its experimental stages. Im looking forward to another Jeep built. If possible If you would have a price layout of parts and installation cost next to it would really be a wonderful factor for many new clients.
+miguelazeved its Line-x (same as Rhino line)... its a spray on liner mostly used to coat the bed of trucks to protect the paint from scratches, but can be used to paint anything.
that snorkel tip looks like a plumber's nightmare, plus you forgot to groove it to push water out before that nice cummins hydrolocks in a heavy Dominican rain...
How come they went with twin turbo instead of charging it? Would the super charger not be more beneficial for offroading? With the twin turbo and nos, it seems like they are going for high speeds instead.
Turbochargers are a lot more common on Diesel engines. There are a lot more turbo kits for diesels than their are superchargers. Besides most diesels you buy now are all turbocharged. A supercharger for a diesel would be completely custom.
im an old jeep guy, and no bigger than 35's, i have an 85 cj7 and an 81 cj8. i would love all that in the the 8. too bad i cant even afford new rubber right now. lol

Some people should just Not Be in front of the camera. This guy is one of them.
Prayers sent, just watched this on Dave's channel. a dream vehicle of mine still to this day
That is pretty much my favourite 4x4 on the planet
Great Jeep with Great Aftermarket and In-house Fabricated Parts! Great Job to all the people who contributed to the final product !
The Dentist must love you, all these “Ahhhh” makes it easy for him to do his job.
this is the most amazing jeep i have ever seen in my life, i wish i could afford all the parts to do this
One of my all time favorite builds right here!

Great build, I'm sure the new owner is going to love it!
This is exactly what I'd want to drive if I had the money!! This thing is awesome. I vacation in Huntsville Ontario every summer. Sweet rig
Much props from your friends south of the border! What a sexy, sexy truck!
I love the original rattle trap. Catches me plenty of fish.
WOW! I am in the market for a Jeep - it has been my dream ride all my life and I am ready to get one. I have to say, this is the best Jeep ive ever seen......its insane! Perfection!!Its a bity we cant get all the mods here in SA.............!

I thought Martin Barkey owns MBRP(Martin Barkey Racing Products).
Anyone know how much lift the thing has?
this buyer has really good taste. over the top yea but still somewhat sleek. love it
Yes,love it,too
wow, that was 28 minute nutshell...awesome stuff, don't know anything about offroading, or it's part suppliers, but i's amazing how you can turn post office jeep into something special.
sick jeep. would love to see series on jeeps being built
*6BT And Dual Turbo :)!!!*
_I NEED THAT!!!_
Hell yesssssss. 6bt everythingggggg
BMP. StarPuss big big fan!! :)
ok,see it. Love it with high low beam led headlights
Everything's awesome the factory steering wheel looks so much better
Is there more? I want to see the cruise in Huntsville!! Or how about some wheeling footage from Domican? I'll volunteer to go take said footage.... haha Good work MBRP keep it up!
Take 1 shot glass of beer every time he says "Rattletrap". Makes "power hour" look like prohibition.
That thing is awesome.... one please!
beautiful setup
How bad are the roads in the Dominican Republic? all jokes aside, very nice build!
Depending where you are, but for the most part, the Dominican is all dirt, mud, and mountain roads. Vacationed there several times and Jeep / ATV tours are extremely popular. Settled in the touristy areas by many French, they are making loads of money. This is probably an excursion company owners... just a shot in the dark.
ohaisean and sand, which this monster would haul through all conditions.
ohaisean agreed, the only thing that makes my jeep stuck so far is when it's high centered.
Z-s h
U have to come to Dominican Republic n c lol
What happened to "this won't be the last time you see rattletrap" and how the new owner would be sending footage... haven't seen anything in 3 years
i remember seeing an article about this being the baddest jeep in the dominican republic. ive been wondering what were the specs on that beast and i just found this vid now
I'm responsible for at least 100 of the views on this video
love this awesome BEAST!! I see it all over facebook from the pages I follow and on instagram.
I have a 2005 Colorado ext cab z71 4x4 and wanting to rhino line/ line x the bottom sides off my truck and the fenders. also looking for custom bumpers, LED light bar mount for the roof, and probably will bw installing a 4" suspension lift and 2" body lift.... finally found this youtube page!
Wish I could have this beast in Australia
that's one sick Jeep
what a amazing build wow!
Fantastic truck! How do you get that granite effect paint?
It's a bed liner from a truck
Thanks, I rewatched the video and heard him call it linex. Hadn't heard of it before but googling around I saw people are doing some pretty interesting things with the stuff.
biribobili Rhino Liner maybe
Hobeer It's bedliner
This will be our next Jeep. - Jeep Avengers.
What happened to the Rattle Trap videos coming you mentioned??
tube diameter snorkel ?
This isn't a Jeep. It's 95% custom mod that cost over $200K
That's what I was thinking. Nothing on it belongs to a Jeep but the shell. Its like if someone made a sandwich that was 95% shit and 5% ham...Would you be willing to consider it a ham sandwich...
Awesome build !!!
Looks like something out of mad max
do you make any custom stingers instead of a light bar?
hey folks at MBRP... What transmission did you use in rattletrap? stock jk, the 2500 ram, or something else?
Another jeep I will continue to wish I had!
What's the exhaust setup? Did you go with Flowmaster?? Hahahahah just kidding! Love my MBRP on my F150, just put a 3" single on my father's 2021 Ranger and it sounds pretty damn awesome for a 4 banger. Nice tone outside, and super mellow and quite inside!
kick ass jeep! haha how much did you guys put into it?
Thinking about a 6BT swap for a tribute Jeep for my son. Could use advise and pricing on the build.
Will there be any videos of David driving the jeep?
That jeep reminds me of my last trip to Six Flags. Too short to ride this ride.
O man, you should it driven it at least around the corner so we could see how it really looks in action, but any way is a master piece, we'll done.... 👍👍👍
Now one question. Doesnt the snorkel cause problems when it's raining?
That thing is bad ass!!!!
can't find the coil overs from eibach anywhere?
Is there parts for FJ crusier as well ????
Yes you should build another
Wasn't this at Wapak Tug Fest in Wapak, Ohio? I think I remember seeing it there when it was white.
Where can I find this paint?
Thank you! I'm very interested in buying this paint. Do you know exactly where I can buy it?
+John Smitymcjensenburgermcham you can't! It's sprayed at high temp it's basically a blend between rubber and epoxy is probably as simple as I can explain it. But you have to go to a line-X store to have it applied
que pintura é essa?
Blake Armentano you just drive under a big asphalt truck...
Hey Blake! It is a protective coating called Line-X. Generally used for truck bed liners but has many other applications.
Looks like a mad max truck
How much would cost to make one like this :)?
You guys are great! What was the negotiable price set on? I actually spoke to you in the beginning of the year about the suspension parts on the phone very helpful. first would it be better to have the jeep built by your company then to farm out and hunt for the parts. which cost factor would be better If you were starting with just a stock jeep and stock motor. what would the price be with the cummins insulted?

Can we get a count of how many times he says the phrase "rattle trap" in this video? holy god.
Erik Kubatzke Yes, 36 times. Yes, I counted.
Is that four wheel drive?
Did you have to stretch it for the Cummins Engine or can you get away with just putting a cummins in a Jeep JK?
How much would something like this go for?
Los Pollos plenty
This jeep looks like a Rc jeep with all the accessories. I have these exact bumpers on my jeep only mine is 1/10th scale.
does it have open differentials?
Muy buena transformación de este Jeep luce muy bien y buena suerte n saludo desde Costa Rica para todos ustedes g÷)
Whats the price on a jeep like the Rattle trap???
I would guess over $200k
Sick! I love it. 👍
i love the paint, please can descrive the paint?
+miguelazeved its Line-x (same as Rhino line)... its a spray on liner mostly used to coat the bed of trucks to protect the paint from scratches, but can be used to paint anything.
+Derrick Perez thanks :)
What kind of hard top is that
I can't find it anywhere
What's the cost of RattleTrap?
so where can i find the videos that the new owner is making?
I Think That Jeep Is For Big Papi Of The Boston Red Sox. (David Ortiz) He Lives In The Dominican Republic!!!!!
the exhaust exit point toward the front of the jeep so what happen if david drive the jeep in a. heavy rain?
Great project.
Are those portal axles???
that snorkel tip looks like a plumber's nightmare, plus you forgot to groove it to push water out before that nice cummins hydrolocks in a heavy Dominican rain...
What type of axel joint are these
I just bought a 5.9 Cummins to put in my jeep jk can you tell me what all I'll have to do to my jeep to make it fit?
+Chelsea Bourne A ton of framework. RIP
Great..
I to am in the process of putting a 5.9 in a jk.
+Chelsea Bourne Get the 4 cyl Cummins. much easier install and plenty of torque when properly tweaked.
Hey @MBRP roughly how much was is to Line-X a JKU?
which it is the mark of the suspension?
Is this the same one that Dave Sparks has?
How did this end up in the Diesel Bros hands for a giveaway??
How were the hood letters made
How much did she sell for? A beast like that has to be worth at least 100K.
How come they went with twin turbo instead of charging it? Would the super charger not be more beneficial for offroading? With the twin turbo and nos, it seems like they are going for high speeds instead.
Turbochargers are a lot more common on Diesel engines. There are a lot more turbo kits for diesels than their are superchargers.
Besides most diesels you buy now are all turbocharged.
A supercharger for a diesel would be completely custom.
how much lift does this vehicle have and how much horsepower and torque
The king of jeeps
Shouldn't those rear coil overs be set up perpendicular to the control arms?
And how much you think it may cost to line X a jk four door, any idea, thank you.
I would LOVE this ❤️
@3:22 Good lord that coilover is as big as a dana30 axle housing xD
Where can I buy these steps?
this paint job is awesome. I want to paint my MTB like this... not my car haha
how big/tall is the lift kit?
im an old jeep guy, and no bigger than 35's, i have an 85 cj7 and an 81 cj8. i would love all that in the the 8. too bad i cant even afford new rubber right now. lol
anyone know what kind of bumper that is? did he say it's off camber fabrications or something like that? if so where can I find one?
