- We head to Moab, Utah, to surprise Collin’s dad, George, with the finished build on his 2006 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon, also known as the Jeep LJ. Built in the Rockies by 3D Offroad, the Silver Bullet LJ is our modern take on a classic machine that boasts a 10” longer wheelbase over that of the Jeep TJ. Highly sought after within the Jeep and off-road community, the Jeep LJ makes for an excellent rock crawler, especially when you make some functional changes to improve its ride height, off-road capability, and on-road drivability! In order to preserve the excellent condition of George’s LJ, the team at Built2Wander avoided any heavy cutting in the body and maintained the stock LJ wheelbase.

It was a jam and came down to the wire, but the team at 3D Offroad and Built2Wander managed to pull off the full build just in time for the start of the annual Easter Jeep Safari in Moab, Utah. Following the surprise reveal to George, Built2Wander spends the next 5 days on some of Moab’s most well-known trails to prove how trail worthy the new Silver Bullet LJ really is. It quickly earns respect by keeping up with the Triton JL and Blaze JT builds on some of Moab’s tougher trails such as Moab Rim and Metal Masher.
Follow along for Jeep LJ Unlimited build mods and ideas as we reveal the build and do a full walk around highlighting all of the aftermarket parts and components that went into the build. From Currie Enterprises axles with Carbon Off Road gears and shafts to 37” Nitto Tires and KMC Beadlocks, the foundation of the Silver Bullet LJ is as stout as they come! Featuring aluminum body armor and fenders from Genright Off Road along with Savvy Off Road’s aluminum bumpers, this Jeep LJ has plenty of additional strength in all of the right areas without packing on too much excess weight. The Silver Bullet LJ rides incredible both on road and off thanks to the Savvy Off Road Mid-Arm Suspension System with RockJock 4x4 Control Arms, Johnny Joints, and Antirock Sway Bars. Bilstein Shock Absorbers help keep it stable in the rocks and comfortable on the road.
Be sure and tune in to see how well this special build came together. We are thrilled to see Collin’s dad George enjoying it on its maiden voyage in Moab, Utah for the Easter Jeep Safari and excited to see all of the trails he will be joining us on with his new build! Drop us a comment below and let us know what you think of the finished build.

Great build. You kept ad much LJ as possible while building a solid trail rig. Thank you for not cutting it to bits and back halfing it. This is pretty much a master class on how to build one of these.
Thank you! We really tried to maximize the capability of the Lj without too much “heavy” modifications. Frame is untouched (minus suspension work), we didn’t stretch it, and we didn’t cut the hood. Did our best to maintain all of the original dimensions of the body and keep it looking like an LJ. 👍🏻
Just starting to tear down my 05 LJ. This build spec is really close to where I am going. Except GM 5.3. I was iffy on 40s, I think your vids on this build convinced me to stay on 37s, thanks! Also thanks for all the vendors, that's going to be a huge help as I've been in JK land since 08. Beautiful Jeep, glad to see family's involved!! Cheers.
Thanks for the awesome feedback, Nate! Good luck with your build. Reach out to us if you have any questions. I am excited to see it come to life!
LJ looks to be an excellent build. Inspiration for building my 06 LJ.
Right on! Good luck with the build 👊🏻
Wow, your dad’s Jeep when stock looks identical to what’s in my garage right now. I thought maybe you guys stole mine for a second there. Super clean from start to finish. Nice build guys!
We love working with you on these builds. Another solid Jeep build.
Thanks guys!! 👊🏻
I don’t even have a jeep tj/lj, but I wanna buy one just because of this build.
You guys killed it on this one! Awesome jeep!
Thank you so much!! This one means a lot to us 🙌🏻
Reminds me of that genright silver surfer lj, looks really nice
That was such a great trip!
Heck yea it was!! 👊🏻
Check out the bartact seat covers !
As an owner of a Silver TJ Rubicon I love the LJ build. Very jealous!
Another great build 👏 know I'm late to the party with the Video being 3 yrs old but where in Ohio are you !?
So awesome the revile and the description of everything that was done. Great job on the Jeep and this video 👍👍👏
Thank you!! A lot of passion went into this one. 👊🏻
Great build!!
Thanks Ray!!!
Amazing build!
Thanks for following along! 🤙🏻
Epic build. Well done
Thank you!! 👊🏻
What size gas tank do you have on the LJ? Also about how long did it take yall to build that jeep? And yall got bedliner in the jeep ?
Factory gas tank with the Savvy Offroad aluminum gas tank skid. Built it in roughly 6 weeks. We did do bedliner on the interior of the tub and then put the carpet back on top
How big is thd factory gas tank for LJ. And plan on going for a bigger gas tank or just stick with what you got? Also how much of a lift do yall have on the LJ?
@@joshnasche5495 we netted about a 3.5” lift. The factory gas tank is 19 Gallons. We plan to just run it as is 👍🏻
🔥🔥🔥
You guys killed it! Well done bro!
Thanks Bob!
How did this setup do on the pavement? Or did this rig get trailered out to the site?
This is such a clean build, I just want to have the middle ground of capable off-road and predictable handling on-road to be able to drive my LJ to all of the great off-road spots.
Sick build! I’m putting 37’s on my LJR auto soon, but am unsure what gears to choose. Is this LJ an auto as well? If so, how does your dad like the 5.13’s?
Killed it!!!!! Well done sir!!!!
Thanks Ryon!!!
Since my back surgery and this pandemic it’s been difficult for me to get a job and continue the build of my broken down LJ
What color is that cage? Also is it powder coat or paint?
Lower the volume on the music please!
You ruined a classic, beautiful LJ and made it to look like just another Jeep buggy. 🙄🙄🙄
I would disagree. We payed homage to the originality of the LJ and avoided stretching the rear axle and Cutting the hood. I feel we maximized the capability of the platform without sacrificing the original dimensions and condition of the body. However, this approach is certainly not for everyone. 👍🏻
