They'd change it up so that it shares most everything with a JK but the frame, say goodbye to the coilovers, bye to the projection lights, the solid aluminum control arms, probably even the 60.

Oh, and yes, I'd be in line for one of these too.

I see. But that is just the Concept. If they make it it will just be a JK Unlimited with a longer rear hangover.

I tend to go with WOL on this one. If they do make this, they will have to beef up the chassis and powertrain to be able to handle towing and payload!

Hahhh.......I know this belongs in the "Track bar bracket broke" threads, but it's very funny to me that that rear track bar has a lateral gusset and the JK doesn't.
