Florida-based Bruiser Conversions’ Jeep Wrangler has six wheels, LS3 power and some serious suspension bits.

The concept of a six-wheeled vehicle is something not many have explored outside of Mercedes offering up 6×6 G-Wagens and Hennessey’s insane Raptor. But there’s another six-wheeled creation running around out there in the wild, and it’s built on arguably an even more capable off-road platform—the legendary Jeep Wrangler.

The heavily modified Wrangler originally debuted at the 2017 SEMA show, but Motor Authority recently got a a much better look at it. The insane 6×6 Jeep you see before you was constructed by the madmen at Bruiser Conversions in Clearwater, Florida. And we’re guessing that you, like us, have a lot of questions. Thankfully, we’ve dug up some answers to quench that thirst for knowledge.

Starting out with “how in the heck did Bruiser make room for that extra axle?” Well, they actually started out with a Wrangler Unlimited. The rear of the ‘ute was then stretched to make room for a truck bed in addition to that axle. Finally, the none-inch Ford diffs were all outfitted with 4.88 gears and Detroit lockers.

To transfer power where it’s needed, Bruiser incorporated an Atlas Twin Stick transfer case. And since some stock six-cylinder wasn’t going to handle the extra weight very well, they sourced an LS3 pumping out 450 hp. That should be more than enough to spin the 40-inch tires with no problem.

Other suspension goodies include a four-link long travel rear suspension, Fox coilovers, and adjustable track bars. All of which makes it pretty clear that this bad boy Wrangler is more than just a SEMA show pony. And judging by the many cool conversions offered by Bruiser, that’s more the norm than the exception from these mad scientists.
