The Jeep is right at $39,000 all said and done. It is a 2006 LJ that has 198,000 miles on the body and was fully restored with an all new bodywork, paint, undercarriage paint, axles, transfer case, new interior etc. It is a brand new Jeep and it is beautiful. The engine and transmission came out of a 2007 Silverado and only have 18,000 miles of them.

I wish they'd sell the kit for 2012+ jeeps like they do 07-11 jeeps!!!! Makes me mad!!! Lol! I mean come on. If I can pull the engine and tranny here in a 992 I can handle a little 4BT

Thank you for posting the process of upgrading your JKU. I'm so jealous! This is the exact upgrade I want to get but I'm still paying for my 2014 JK. Once I'm done. Going to really think of this upgrade. Congratulations!:clap::clap:

How did you get your Jeep back so fast? I waited 9 months to get mine back, not too impressed with the quality of work. Once I got it back it landed back in the shop with a busted NV4500 all because of a shim was missing, a week after pick up. Ever since I did get it back I have been leaking oil. I have brought it up with them and yet to get a clear or any answer from them. I have also brought up the fact that the VE pump is spitting diesel from it. Luckily the spitting of diesel is not atomizing the fuel. The frustrating fact is that there was no Quality Assurance Inspection done on my Jeep. I have had my Jeep back for 2 months now, sat in the shop for 1 month with a busted tranny and now is still leaking oil, from day one (leak is coming from the tappet cover gasket and a plug on the side of the block where an alternative oil fill connection can be attached) and fuel. No answer or any kind of help. I spent 37k on the Jeep conversion with upgrades and not too impressed with some of the quality of work. :mad:

One of the coolest jeeps Ive seen on here!
