They are all nice, but look like trailer queens to me. I want to do a Stroker project with my Inline Six. Done right, that will give me about 300HP and a whole lot more torque in an allready bulletproof engine. That V10 will snap axle shafts with 35 inch tires. Thanks for the links though, fun to look at.

x2 on snappin axles with the V10, although Im sure they upgraded the inners and maybe even the whole axle (Id hope)...the stroker route is where I may be headed someday too...I do like the KJ diesel swap though, that ones got me thinkin 8)

Yep. I agree on the V10. And whoever is getting the SRT8 Wrangler ought to be ashamed of themselves :roll:

And why is that? So it has bling rims? Replace them with a nice lift and new tires/rims. Thats a V-8 Rubicon with 33's or 35's!

It's gonna take more than a lift to fix what they are gonna do.
"This JK will be built to mimic the SRT8 theme as closely as possible. Leather seats, big Brembo brakes, 20 something inch wheels, and all wheel drive."

Leather, AWD, and Brembos dont exactly make a great offroader, lifted or not.

True...but it could be raced like a rally car :lol: In all seriousness I was lookin at a Compass the other day at a stoplight and I thougth to myself, 'That might make a cool rally car with a tuned up suspension, a few mods here and there, and it might be pretty schweet' 8)
