Ok maybe slightly misleading but it is what the title says it is. Seriously though, my youngest grandson turns 3 in a couple weeks and I put this together for him today. My little guys main TV request is to watch Jeeps on YouTube. He LOVES them. He asked me this morning if he could have a Jeep, so I'm guessing he will be pretty happy on his birthday. I'm impressed with this toy and the detail they put into it. Anyway I'm glad they make stuff to get our little ones interested in our sport/hobby and thought I would share it.

You could get them at Walmart before for about $300. My kids got one as an Xmas gift two years ago. They love it! And it's held up well.

We first seen them at Wal-Mart during the holidays but missed out because I waited too long. You can still buy them on Wal-Mart web site but we couldn't find them in Grey. We found one on marketplace.

It seems to be about 1/2" lift. Pretty sure it came with a 1/8" leveling kit up front though. Believe it ir not, this thing really does have sprung suspension on all 4 corners. And to think, all I had was a big wheel when I was a kid. Well life was alot simpler back then.

Does it come complete with simulated axle or rear main seal leak?

Oh, no seals and dry lube. FCA finally released the fix!! 😆 it is literally a steel rod the wheels rotate around. As long as the cam doesn't eat itself, the trans doesn't crap out, the windshield doesn't crack, the paint doesn't come off the door hinges, the batteries don't die, and the service 4wd light doesn't come on, we should be good to go. Lol
