Kevin and Willie take on one of their most challenging builds yet: upgrading Willie's legendary 1983 CJ7. Already sporting heavy-duty one-ton axles and off-road essentials, this CJ is a classic Jeep packed with potential, just waiting for the right touches to become an unstoppable off-road machine.

To take Willie's CJ to the next level, the team sets their sights on a comprehensive 4-link and coilover conversion for enhanced suspension and articulation. Adding rock sliders, fenders, and rear corner armor for maximum body protection, they transform this CJ7 into a battle-ready Jeep. They’ll integrate a custom light package, plus a new heavy-duty winch up front to handle any sticky situation.

The episode also dives into performance upgrades, as the guys outfit the CJ7 with fuel injection to improve throttle response and fuel efficiency. Kevin and Willie explore internal upgrades for the one-ton axles, adding strength to this off-roader’s powerhouse foundation. 
The build not only revamps Willie's Jeep but showcases the possibilities for transforming a classic into a modern off-road beast.
