Someone posted some interior shots of that at a SEMA show I believe. It had the painted trim pieces around the shifter and dash.

This Libby is pretty rad, and there's been a post that links to its build up. (Including flex shots on a forklift!)

I can't seem to find the link, however.

Im a big fan of modifications....but really, that thing isnt even a liberty anymore. Im more interested in things the average guy can do without creating a custom off road rig with Liberty skin...know what I mean?

Oh, I know, and wholeheartedly agree. I just don't have an engineering degree or wallet to do something like that. Im always on the lookout for cool things to do to the Liberty though! I'm actually kind of bored because I think I have done all the cool budget stuff...wheels, tires, EVIC, tint, lift kit, tinted tails, Hellas, etc.

Any other ideas???

As I recall it has an Atlas III transfer case. I still would love to see someone use Rockwells. I have even found a company who does it all the time on others trucks and the gave me the following quote for Rockwells.
OK, IF YOUR QUESTION IS CAN WE PUT 2.5 TON UNDER IT. WELL I THINK WE CAN.
THE GENERAL ESTIMATE WILL BE LABOR 3 - 4,000.00
PARTS WILL VARY FROM 8 - 9,000.00
AND THIS DOESNT INCLUDE WHEELS AND TIRES THEY RUN AN EXTRA 2 - 3,000.00
mudlord04@aol.com

Buy the way I didn't post this quote with out her permission. This company does Monster Trucks all the time. Would it no longer be a KJ?? Maybe , maybe not but in the persuit of climbing the biggest rock or steepest hill. It could be fun

I called S&N fab(the place that did that detroit Locker SFA KJ)about having the same thing done,there response was $15,000 just for labor,no parts in that price.No thank you,doing the whole SFA for about $15,000 using about the same parts as they did.
