Default New Brute for HALF the price

I dont know if yall are famlier with Collins Brothers Jeep, but I forgot all about them....Well I was checking there website and stumbled across this! A half Cab conversion from Black Mountain Its a 2005 LJ with 10,250miles on it with 33's for 18,000....They have several LJ and TJ's on there website for sale....I think it looks good! I e-mailed Black Mountain to get more info bc its not on the website.




What yall think??

I agree...Something does look missing off the back, maybe its the cab looking some much taller over the bed?? But for $1,350 I believe I can live with it!! Maybe could fab up some rails on the bed side to make it look alittle taller??

not to rain the parade, but these aren't brutes, they're stock TJs and LJs with aftermarket half top hardtops on them. a brute has a separate cab and bed, extended frame rails, and a ton of other stuff. Don't get me wrong, these are still cool, but just not the brute.

Yea I know they aren't a brute.....But what is a Brute when you break it down...A halfcab TJ and small bed! These are the same thing just without all the fancy parts and extra fab work that a AEV Brute has....
