Looks great! I wheeled with a guy that had one when they first came out in Moab. The little 3 point something motor was weak but the wheelbase, extra room and nice ride made us all jealous.
Thanks man. These Jeeps should've came with a larger motor for sure. The 3.8L (older 4 doors) is a joke at best... The HP to weight ratio is way off. I think they should've had an engine option.. V8 for the offroad/power at demand type and the small V.6 for the typical Jeep. Hell even a 4.0 would be 100x better!!! Gas mileage would be about the same 14-15mpg in town... Me being me, I went out and picked up an 05 5.7 Hemi for cheap. I'll most likely put a mild Cam in it and maybe a couple other minor things then turn around and sell it for a slight profit. Next weekend I'll be picking up an LS style 5.3L... and then my hunt for an NV4500 will commence... behind that will be my 231/205 doubler. Sitting on tons and wrapped in 37" shoes.... had a nice set of 39.5" swampers but decided to sell them. (I gotta stop doing that $h!t).
