Default Rubitrux2 JK Pickup Coming

Hi All,

I emailed RubiTrux yesterday to see if they were working on a truck conversion for the JK (they do one now with the TJ-LJ). Here is the response:

------------------

"Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, we are in the process of development right
now for a JK truck, which will be called the RT2 (RubiTrux2). I'm not sure
just when the launch will be, but we are striving toward a prototype in
March.

Please keep an eye on the website for further developments."

---------------------


Looks like some potential for aftermarket parts to convert a UL to a truck.

I think their TJ variants look odd, but would be interested to see what they can do with a JK Unlimited.

completely agree Jedi-dude, never have liked those on the TJs, can't imagine they'd look much bgetter on a JK but we'll see. Personally it's not worth the expense to have less seating area

Kind of reminds me of a Samari. I'm not sure why, but it does. It's a good deal if you need something like that though.

If you want a truck, then why not by a truck?

I suppose most would consider doing this conversion on a 4dr, but then wouldn't you lose the seating area? That would negate the whole reason for someone buying a 4dr in the first place, wouldn't it?
