Jeep Grand Wagoneer - 1990
Dover gray
In the build
This Jeep started off as a 1990 Jeep Grand Wagoneer. After completely striping the body down to its bare metal, we decided to go dover grey on the exterior with JEEPHERITAGE woodgrain and mouldings.
Matching era and looks, we have a NOS CORDUROY and MOORE & GILES leather interior about to be installed.
The body sits on a VIGILANTE frame and will be completed with your choice of drivetrain. Check out our options below and lets get going!
Price start at $295,000
This Jeep is currently in the buid. We are ready to complete it with your choice of drivetrain, and wheels. Check out our options below and lets get going!
Motorization
The objective of VIGILANTE is to offer engines that are much more performant than the original ones (the carburated 5.9 Liter 8 cylinder or inline 6 engines). The goal is to get as much reliability and power as the high-end Sport SUVs that are currently found in todays market .
392 SRT HEMI comes standard. Optional engine configurations with increaded power are available.

Transmission
All that power – ranging from 485 HP to 1000 HP – is channeled through 6-speed manual or 4 speed automatic gearboxes that are designed and adapted to HEMI engines.
We recommend the 4 speed automatic for this build but other transmissions are available. Manual or automatic? You pick.

Tremec TR-6060

Axles
The axles are the last part of the kinetic chain, and we wanted axles in accordance with Jeep’s legacy for our VIGILANTE line. The obvious choice for us are the DANA 60 and DANA 44 type from Currie Enterprises: these new axles are the standard of reference in the axles’ market for both their sturdiness and their reliability.
Front Dana 44
Currie Enterprises Dana-44 front axle
3.71 or 4.11 gears
6-piston Baer disc brakes
Rear Dana 60
Currie Enterprises Dana-60 rear axle
3.71 or 4.11 gears
6 piston Baer disc brakes
Four-wheel drive
For the VIGILANTE line, we chose to maintain the four-wheel-drive mode of operation. That’s why, to best distribute the high power of the HEMI engine, we selected an Advance Adapters Atlas-II type of reinforced transfer case.
Atlas-II
2 manual speed
High Range 1:1
Low Range 1:3.45
Reinforced case
Helical gear transmission
Long travel suspension and powerful brakes.
EIBACH coils and adjustable FOX RACING 2.0 shock absorbers have replaced the original leaf springs suspension used on Full-Size Jeeps.
More acceleration requires more braking power. The drum/disc combination originally found on Grand Wagoneers was functional but completey outdated. That’s why we replaced it with four huge slotted/drilled/vented discs that can withstand high temperatures. The firm grip is provided by BAER 6-piston calipers. This combination is installed on all VIGILANTE Jeeps.
