Project Dan H thanks the flip glass is the top portion of the rear hatch that I cut in half to make the rear glass and bottom half to make the tailgate.
Nice job. Someone did this to a WJ too. One like this, and one that kept all four doors and moved the hatch glass behind them. Reminiscent of the Honda Ridgeline.
IV thought about cutting mine the same way behind the front doors but leave the back original and making a soft top and roll cage type of deal but... This is fucking sick man, id love to see it in person
Hey man! This is awesome! Any chance on doing a video that walks someone through the build? I got a zj and would love to hear more detail on exactly what you did and even what you'd do different. What truck bed parts needed basically a build list but in video form so others could attempt it. Thanks!
Awesome man! When flexing does the body twist so much it wants to break apart? Im wondering how necessary having all the original unibody intact is for structural integrity.
That’s bad ass. My neighbor did a 2 door Cherokee “ pickup” conversion super similar.
Ooo snap the Grand Comanche 🤘🏽
I'm going to be cutting up a 1999 WJ to convert it into a Jeep Grand Cherokee UTE. This video gave me inspiration!
Glad to hear that. It’s been a long road but I still getting there
Wow! That's extremely creative!!! I love the flip glass and the fuel tank access. Great work👍

@@1stzjtruck706 excellent maneuver! 👊
Dang life’s trippy. I was thinking about how would a ZJ look if they turned it into a truck and this popped up outa nowhere 😂
I had a hippy art teacher tell me that means " I'm in tune with the universe".... whatever that means.
Yep. t’s called synchronicity.

Please keep making content. The concept looks better than most modern day trucks. Can’t wait for you to finish ur build.
Thanks for watching I’m glad you like it. There is more to come
I never had a ZJ. I've had two CJ7s, three XJs and currently have a WJ and WK. Loved them all.
Awesome and you retained the liftgate window. Even more awesome.
SO FRIGGIN COOL! I love this ting!
Just picked up a 93 ZJ
It still had bumpers on it.
But that is the first thing I'm doing is pulling those off and getting to cutting
Love it! Makes me want to get a ZJ even more now. Lol!
This is bad A**. I love it. I chop topped a unibody car. Everyone says you can't modify a unibody. Ya sure can.
I see you put a electric fan. Been thinking of doing that
Yes it’s from a Ford Taurus
This is serious talent man.
This is badass, even the rear window opens up behind the seats😂
Thanks a lot it is fun building
Looks like it! I have a couple ZJs I'm working on as well.
Yea...The rear window setup is sweet!

Do you have a video of how you cut and welded? oh finished?
Sorry but no I don’t.

Unibody is reinforced along with the cross bracing from IRO. So far I have not had any problems
@@1stzjtruck706 oh nice.
Very cool
I like it a lot
I want one👍
Thanks
This is awesome!!!
are you in california? i think i saw this on the freeway awhile back
Yes between Bakersfield and L A
i would like to ask this person how they did it
The Gulf War Airsofter it’s still a work in progress
@@1stzjtruck706 awesome awesome
I really want to try this build. Where is the rear cab sourced from?
The rear top of the cab is the top part of the lift hatch of the original ZJ
@@1stzjtruck706 thank you. Im trying to wrap my head around how to do this. Seems difficult but doable
Well, I don't hate it...
But the 2 XJs in my driveway will NEVER look like that.
Did you make the bed? Badass tho!
Thanks I made the bed using a bed from a S10 and grafting it into the box
@@1stzjtruck706 that’s what I exactly was thinking man
what ever happened to this thing/you? hopefully all is well.
quiero hacer una pick up gran cherokee, es buena idea o no?
If it is done safe then I will have to say go ahead with it
If Jeep made this. People would buy it like crazy. They should bring back the ZJ.
Simular truck like my
Was this a 2 or 4 door zj ?
This was a 4 door ZJ
Anything is possible.
whats the wheel offset
The back space is 3.75 in
Badass
How big is the bed?
TheEofD&E the bed is 59” wide, 61” long and 41” between the fender wells.
I know u can fit a quad for sure ...nice
America
Thanks
Es mía la cherokí
As soon as I saw the California plates I lost complete interest. California 👎
Sorry that is how you feel but just remember that it’s not about where it is being built but about the build itself
@@1stzjtruck706 nevertheless California SUCKS
Así nomas
Osea que sus policías son mejores
Sorry I didn’t understand what you’re saying
