New JK8 conversion revealed
« on: April 28, 2011, 01:54:58 PM »
i like it. ,  this is cool as it can be done quickly and changed back quickly as well. i would line x it first. Rawk some nice lift, tires and rims...oh yeah 8) and throw the spare in the box ;)

And they did it in an hour (with some pre work loosened), so figure maybe 4 hours to do it.

well, mr sergio marchionne, the top guy of chrysler now, figures the jeep truck is a good idea. so conversions are one thing, but a real jeep truck is another. id keep it low with a simple suspesnion upgrade. 35's, and a lower set of gears. perfect all-aorund 4x4.

It looks okay, could use a little massaging of design, and definitely add a roll bar. Today I saw the green AEV Brute, nice ride indeed!

have you ever seen it with the front hard top removed? HORRIBLE. It does not line up at all.
