Haha, I hear ya... But I agree power breaking doesn't count. Just messin' with ya (sort of).
I'll post some pics tomorrow of my Cherokee Chief, if it weren't partly parted out I'd offer it to you for a good deal. Been slowly parting it out as I have plans for the d44 axles and AMC 360 in it (it's a donor for my CJ7). I have had many people tell me I should keep it, build it, and wheel it but I can barely handle my two projects; three would be overkill.
It's a kit made by Mopar and installed locally. A dealer near me has had one on the lot for months and wants a small fortune. Too bad the install doesn't look as good as the one the OP posted.
What wheels are on that JK8? I can't decide if I hate them or just greatly dislike them.
Yeah, they did a good job on this conversion, but wow that price tag is ridiculous. I'm not sure what wheels those are though sorry.

Oh, I added heated seats to my 08 JKU for $120 and two hours of installation time.
You can get the factory heated seats for your JK for about $350 + install time. I went generic because I'd had the same brand before in my Tundra.

Uh...for $20K why not just buy a used truck with, like, real truck capability? 10k for an older truck, the rest to all the mods that dealership is attempting to rape somebody for.

Not flaming here but where do I get these new 500 horse warp drives? Burnout references only show that it has enough to break traction. my '10 with my mods will shred my 35's but now that the average 35" tire being 400 beans now .... enough of that LOL.
c'mon everybody five .... five dollar ...... fiftyeight grand gone wrooong 
900 bucks for bedlining ....... Heyzues Christo my dually was 900 and I had my inside fenderwells, and wrapped the back end up under the bed as well ... by Rhinoliner taboot!
3500 for wheels???
3049.90 will get you (5) ... heh heh Five..... Fiv ... sorry (5) pintlers and (5) 35" KM2'sWads thanks for the post. Not often ya find a dealer that is happy to let ya kick tires without intent to buy.

Off topic and all but as requested here is a pic of the '77 Cherokee Chief (my '85 CJ7 in background):
Looks a bit different today as I have sold some parts off it, to date what is gone:
-Underdash A/C unit
-Rear windows and seals (one window due to vandals, seals sold)
-Razor grill
-Rear bumper
-Radio and dash bezel
Think that's everything. Gotta plug it: Everything is for sale off this beast minus the AMC 360 and the D44 axles (Could probably let it all go for the right price though, will entertain any and all SERIOUS offers), hit me up if interested. I can also provide more pics if requested.

This is the second post I have seen in as many days regarding the almighty 3.6. and it's hunger for rubber. The first was a guy that could "Do burnouts on the highway" <---- Not flaming here but where do I get these new 500 horse warp drives? Burnout references only show that it has enough to break traction. my '10 with my mods will shred my 35's but now that the average 35" tire being 400 beans now .... enough of that LOL.
Or 11,600 Feet of Subway sandwiches c'mon everybody five .... five dollar ...... fiftyeight grand gone wrooong
900 bucks for bedlining ....... Heyzues Christo my dually was 900 and I had my inside fenderwells, and wrapped the back end up under the bed as well ... by Rhinoliner taboot!
