I probably would have gone 10 shorter to give me a more noticeable difference but it's your jeep and your plan. Looks like making some good progress. Should be cool

Find an engine yet?

 

[Brute]

The idea is to end up with a body and wheelbase like this

 

[WJCO]

That'll look cool. Good luck and have fun.

 

[13_gecko_rubi]

Cool. Did you get the truck kit yet? Or using a gr8top?

Way off subject, but I really like that rear bumper.

Hey, if your wallet's big enough, anything is possible!

I guess the wallet's pretty big when you can do this to a brand new JKU instead of just buying a high mileage used one.:thinking:

Going with the Mopar JK8 kit & modifying it...

Prior to starting, I had toyed with the idea of an alum tub from Aqualu and fitting a gr8top...

If you didn't order it yet start searching. Last I heard (a couple weeks ago) they quit making them.

Those half doors have a home right here. Our greens almost match so it's perfect.

Ok...I've been dreaming/thinking about this build for awhile...I already own a JKU & an AEV Brute, but wanted something with a shorter wheelbase than the Brute & JKU, but longer than a JK...my dream build, and most likely my last one (which is what I said after my Brute...)

This is what's on the build list...which is fluid at the moment.

Man. The Scuba business pays well in Hawaii. All the scuba guys I know here in Idaho are poor.

Can't wait to see the build.

Where in the world do you dive in ID?

 

[swampdog]

Where in the world do you dive in ID?

I'm hoping he was joking...

 

[Sharkey]

Where in the world do you dive in ID?

Lakes, rivers, and abandoned mines.

 

[swampdog]

Pools, ponds, puddles. I guess I wasn't thinking creatively enough! Sharks does have a point, I guess there are places to do it, but not enough to make a fortune selling the gear.

A friend of mine today was trying to convince me that I needed to drop a Hellcat in my 2 door sport so I could pop wheelies. :cheesy:

subscribed!
