It's obviously the factory upgrade to the auto heated ball massagers. I also looked at the picture again....



Ladies, gentlemen, binaries, binary-transticular, aliens, whatever the hell you associate as, I present to you the 2017 Wrangler "Unlimited Unlimited" Rubicon JKUUR with factory heated ball massagers.

Resale value on these vehicles will be astronomical. The aftermarket ball massager seat mods I'm sure will be on everyone's Christmas list.

Wow there are def some sore balls in this thread. I don't have much SB stuff but have always been pleased with what I have had. I had a CJ 5 in college(mid 90s) and it was pretty much a smittybilt catalog vehicle. Ha. I never had problems with quality or function. But I always hear now all the negatives. I call BS!! I think the JK has turned everyone into superficial pricks. You're either a soccer mom, mall crawler or the baddest off road king alive. I don't think I fit any of those categories. But I know I love Jeeps! And I'll continue to own and drive them. And add on what I need/want as the opportunities present themselves. It's up to the individual Jeeper. What's the best Jeep to drive? How about the one you have! As far as America outsourcing manufacturing...unfortunately We The People did that. Maybe not you personally but as a society we asked for more for less and in record time. Have you ever paid at the pump? Used self checkout? Ordered online? Wanted a good product for less? Voted?!? If so, these are all contributing factors. I agree that we need jobs and production back in the US! But it's easier said than done. God Bless America. #jeeplife

I thought Smittybilt was an American company, with American designs, but manufactured in China, like Warns VR winches... ?? To bring prices down to a reasonable price point that we can afford. Sometimes as much as we would all love to buy nothing but North American made it really is beyond our budget to do so. 2 bumpers, tire carrier and a winch from Smittybilt 1k$ is hard to beat. I paid more then that for just my AEV front bumper.

That being said I have had that bumper undercoated every fall since 2012 and it's been solid but many complain that the finish doesn't stand up any better then cheaper bumpers. So that brings us to the next question, how do we know and and how can we be sure that the North American product is truly any better at double+ the price.

Cant believe this! I e-mailed these guys to see if it was a mistake.Here's their response.

Doesn't a 6.4 hemi cost $60,000 from AEV?

Still funny. For that it's almost as if they charged labor 2x for replacing what was already being removed for a 6.4 swap.

Brand new 6.4 is pretty expensive, 60k is just unreasonable and ridiculous.

If it's the JK3500 conversion it also has Dana60 axles to go with that Hemi. Unreasonable to most perhaps but for someone who wants a HD Wrangler with a Hemi its in the ballpark, unless you can build it yourself.

40K Base Jeep
20K Hemi, Transmission, and transfer case
15K locked D60s front and rear.
10K AEV bumpers lift and wheels.
