What happens when you blur the lines between UTV, rally car and trick truck? If you haven’t seen or heard of it yet, you get he Jackal. The Jackal was developed from a man who’s no stranger to motorsports, car building, stunt driving—Rhys Millen. Living up to its name the Jackal is long legged, light weight animal that essentially hunts everything.
Rhys Millen took his extensive racing experience and developed a lightweight 4WD buggy using a turbocharged motor and even added a rally-spec gearbox. For wheels Rhys went with the Method Race Wheels 401-R, which was developed for the extremes of off-road racing and to provide optimal handling and feedback for the driver. The 401-Rs are wrapped in Tensor Tires’ DSR 37” tires.
