Collins Brothers Jeep ( Wylie, TX) is currently working on just what you describe, a 4 door with an extended rear body. The wheel base does not look to be extended, the hard top encloses the rear seats,there is a bulkhead behind the rear seats and the open cargo area is like the old " Srambler". It looks like one of the simpler ways to have 4 doors and a cargo area. This is separate from their JK8 mopar build , aims to get utility for a lot less expense.

You could always convert your cargo area into an SUT style where the rear area is open to the elements. I've been thinking alot lately about doing this to mine. It's not a huge truck bed bud but it does give it a cool look. Just google JK sut and click on some images. Just throwing an idea to ya! Good luck with whatever you decide on!

I think the last Quadratec catalog I got had a JK 4 door pickup on the cover (actually page 3) and that they were giving it away -

Just found it - it says it's a 2013 AEV Brute Double Cab - Giveaway


Looks awesome !!

No, I was talking about the brute. I have been talking with aev and staying up with the latest news. If you read any of their posts or call they will explain how they have not come up with a set price, but will be around the cost of the tj. I built the brute tj and was right around 20k built
