The first hose is a kitchen sink type spray nozzle for drinking or hand washing, the second line goes to a water switch that controls water to misting spray heads mount at the roll bar. The water mist lowers the temperature inside the Jeep about 25 degrees. Great for slow travel in the desert. A tank of water lasts all day. Secondary safety latch on swing gate.

There are quick connect air couplers on the drivers and passenger side of the bar near the bottom and a custom 12 foot air hose that plugs in to the couplers. There are drain plugs in the lower legs to drain out water from condensation and a gauge to indicate stored air pressure.

THIS JEEP WAS BUILT CORRECTLY ! All new grade 8 or higher hardware with Nylock locking nuts on most all bolts. All electrical connectors were crimped, soldiered, And covered in shrink tubing. The electrical switches are for a Kenworth truck and are lifetime guaranteed and are rated at 100 amps capacity each. The motor runs perfect and can idle or run slow through the hot desert at 50 psi oil pressure and 185 degrees water temperature all day long. No oil leaks or oil consumption ! The transmission shift fast and positive. Approach any hill, select high or low range 4 wheel drive, and put the transmission in drive. This Jeep will up shift to the proper gear and down shift at the proper time as it climbs the hill. One hand is all that is needed on the power assisted steering. THIS JEEP WAS BUILT AS A FAMILY SAFE, SURVIVAL JEEP. Every effort was made to make this vehicle as well engineer as possible so that it would be unbreakable off-road and would protect all occupants in case of and accident. Quality seating and safety belts for 2 adults and 3 children, extra strong cross braced padded roll bar (plated under the body for strength), safety latch spare tire carrier, large fire extinguisher, disc brakes and storage compartments for tools, extra food and first aid supplies along with extra fuel, water, spare parts and spare battery to ensure your safe return from your wilderness adventure. THIS JEEP WAS BUILT FOR OFF ROAD USE BUT DRIVES GREAT AT NORMAL STREET SPEEDS ( 3000 R.P.M’S AT ABOUT 60 MPH). I built this Jeep my self with advice from many friends who are experienced Jeepers and most are also aerospace engineers. Built between 1998 and 2000, it has only been out on 3 Jeep weekend runs since completed. I would estimate the total use at less than 1000 miles.
