I am a long time jeep owner having restored a 1948 Willys Pickup as a father-son project back in high school. So began my love for the round eyed buck toothed vehicle. A Ford Fiesta, Subaru Wagon, Ford Ranger, Chevy S10, BMW 330, Mazda CX7 and 27 years later, I finally decided it was time after Jeep came out with the Pentastar. After adding a K&N Filter, Superchip, Rugged Ridge snorkel, Power-Aid throttle body spacer and MagnaFlow dual exhaust, the Punisher is over 320 HP now and jumps at the chance to pass slower cars on the highway or take that hole shot at a stoplight. Other upgrades include; 4″ Pro Comp lift with Bilstein Shocks, 35″ Nitto Trail Grapplers wrapped around the rugged 18″ XD Monsters, Smittybilt SRC Front Bumper with a powerful XRC 10K Winch. Smittybilt SRC Side Armor Bars, Bushwacker Fenders and the Rugged Ridge Light Guards give The PUNISHER that aggressive look that I was seeking. Interior upgrades include; Smittybilt G.E.A.R Seat & Tailgate Cover, Recovery Kit, Premium Grab Handles, Fire Extinguishers, First Aid Storage Bag, Trail Axe and Bestop under seat lock box. But what really makes this Jeep a head turner is the Custom Kevlar Exterior coat and the SantaCruz AR15 Gunlock Mount w/Noveske Lower & Vltor Upper 556 Rifle, especially when the top is off!!! Thanks to the guys at the West Palm Beach 4wd store for their Tier 1 products and service.

The JEEP PUNISHER was on the cover of the March 2014 issue of Off-Road Adventures Magazine with a feature story inside. Special thanks to Bill Masterson for taking such great pictures and the well written article.
