Hello From Hollie in Long Island

MischiefMaker

Jeep Owner
Just wanted to check in as a newly registered member and say hi :D

MischiefMaker if my first Jeep and, if you had seen him a few weeks after I got him, you'd think my goal was building one of the baddest mall crawlers ever (lightbar, angry eye inserts, the works...). I didn't know any better.... :cry:

I went to my first jeep meet with my local club (Out East Jeeps) about 3 months after picking him up and the amazing Jeepers in that group helped set me straight...

Below are a few pics of his transformation, but he is about to evolve again in to MischiefMaker 3.0 (should be done by late October). I'll put details on his 3.0 transformation in a build thread.

MM 1.0 - 4.5" GC 6Pak Edition, 37" BFG KM2s, BrandMotion Rear View Camera System, Tyger Auto Rocker Protection/step, EAG Bumpers, Rugged Ridge XHD Wheels, sPOD, Smittybuilt x20 Winch, 48" Hi-Lift Jack, DV8 Tire Carrier, ARB Dual Piston Air Compressor, Spicer 5.13 Gear Set, ARB Air Lockers Front/Rear

What’s up Hollie! Yes I am very proud of you for ditching the angry eyes. Rig looks great. I am 90% sure I have seen a pic of this rigon instagram. Anyhow. Glad your hear. Can’t wait to see 3.0 in the build thread. :welcome:

Welcome

I would like to have one of these Chief branded Jeeps.

Being a retired Navy Chief Petty Officer, mine would have to be called Retired Chief!

That's a great idea... :haha

They are everywhere. Jeep made over 3,500 of them as special edition Sahara appearance Packages last year. You even have 3 color options Chief, Gobi or Rhino.

Haha. They are my babies. [emoji190][emoji190]

I didn’t break anything too crazy. Just the front ring gear and a rear axle shaft. Could have easily gotten it back on the road already, but I’m keeping focused (mentally and financially) on the new build.

As part of phase 1 of this build I beefed up my stock Sahara axles w/air lockers and 5.13 gears (I know, I know 🤣).

The goal was to get some more experience off-roading and save up for new axles. As I started to take on harder obstacles I knew it was just a matter of time until something went, so we got a trailer.

I’ve been out of commission for about 5 weeks, but there are some VERY beefy parts on the way...should be back up and running in another 5-6 weeks or so.

(And I guess now is as good a day as any to start my build thread on Modern Jeeper - thanks for the unintentional nudge [emoji12]).

Welcome. Love the Chief blue. I almost got that color.
I originally went to pick up an all-white Sahara. Never made it past MischiefMaker once I laid eyes on him...LOL

I can't see the picture in your welcome post....what color did you end up going with?
