That will be one nice FJ when done! Good start. How did you come across the new chassis?

You going to stick with the 4.0 in it, or go with something bigger? If you decide to get rid of the motor, let me know, I might be interested in it.

I will have a 2005 4.0 from a wrangler this spring with an automatic. I will give you a shout when I have it.

Did something similar earlier this year. Picked up a roll Rubi and have no regrets. I was debating over one tons and lift etc...wheeled it instead.

Surprised how well...already had short arm kit on it. I beat out some the damage and replaced couple things to make legal to inspect. Made a cage, trimmed the flares, added some alum. beadlocks on 36's. Family vehicle with heat, cd player, air...life is good. Already roll tested and dented from being street jeep so what the harm. We passed each other at Toys for Tots Haspen, black Rubicon.

upsise donw?? like a turtle??

all jokes aside
unlimited rubi 04-06 is my dream jeep. I love TJ's and in those you get the extra room (wheelbase) aswell as the 44's, lockers and 4:1.... great platform to start with.
good luck, post more pics.
