Off Road Centers Ford F-150 Jeep Mashup

REWA006

Every once and awhile we come across a build that takes two unlikely vehicles and puts them together. Off Road Centers in Russellville, Alabama is creating something over the top for the 2016 SEMA Show.

What this project all started as.

Off Road Centers is no stranger to off-road builds creating customers dreams everyday. Kirk Dabney the owner of the Off Road Centers has a deep passion for extreme machines and is also seasoned veteran in the Monster Truck Industry. Kirk began his Monster Truck career in 1984 touring the world and crushing cars.

Recently retired from the circuit, as the record holder for the fastest monster truck in a quarter mile and Class of 2014 International Monster Truck Hall of Fame inductee. Kirk has directed his energy into the designing and building the Ultimate JK. Kirk has hand picked a talented group of team members to assist in making his dream JK come alive.

The big block Ford with blower will be powering this massive Jeep.

The Ultimate JK will be on a custom one off frame and have radius arms, custom shock brackets, custom interior, roll cage, and LED lighting. Powering the JK will be a 511 big block Ford with a 671 blower. The Jeep will have a massive 54-inch tire and wheel combination.

King Shocks will help soften the ride where ever this Jeep goes.

We had the chance to speak with Allison Tunner of Off Road Centers, to find out more about this project. “The idea behind the build was to be different. There has been the oem builds with turbos, super chargers, long arm kits, but to the best of our knowledge there has not been a full tube chassis with a full size running gear and a blown ford engine that has the ability to function. We thrive to be different every chance we get,” Tunner said.

“The overall goal is to show who we are as a team and to also represent our vendors that are supporting the build all while being able to use the vehicle, be eye catching and a wow factor all while being something that’s not a trailer queen,” Tunner continued.

We asked Tunner what their favorite part of the Jeep was, “This is a tough question. We have a few favorite centers points on the build like the blower engine, drive train, hidden led lights, the design work on the suspension.”

This may be an unlikely combination, but the folks at Off Road Centers are making it happen.

The team looks to debut the Jeep at this year’s SEMA show with plans to go play in the dirt as well. SEMA is roughly eight months away, the team has plenty of work to do, but we look forward to seeing the progress and seeing it out at the show later this year.

Stay tuned for more updates as we follow the build all the way to the show. What’s is your favorite part of the build? Tell us in the comments below.
