This 1979 Jeep Wagoneer (SJ) rolled out of Vigilante with a new life. The company gifted the classic SUV with a 392 ci Hemi V8 making 485 hp (356 kW) and 475 lb-ft (644 Nm) of torque. Behind that is a Bowler 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission with a Compushift TCU and transfer case. Torque is split between a Dana 44 front axle and Dana 60 rear axle. Vigilante upgraded the Wagoneer’s suspension with Fox Racing 2.0 shocks and Baer six-piston brakes with drilled and slotted 14-inch rotors. The exterior features a black painted body with grey woodgrain stripes, black bumpers and grill, smoked glass, and Vigilante signature 17×9-inch wheels.
