Saw these today...modified JKUs used by a high end golf club in the Palm Desert area in California to take members up into the desert or something. Didn't really get an explanation. 
They added a rear frame section, small lift, 33s, etc. The steps on the back automatically drop down when you open the door.

New to the forum,
Looking to do an engine swap on 2000 Jeep wrangler TJ.  Currently have 4.0L 6 cylinder.  From what I have read, it looks like the Gen 3 GM engines are fairly simple with the 4L60e transmission.  Looking to get more power and a transmission that has OD to be able to get better MPH on the highway.  The 32RH with 3 gears just isnt cutting it.  Have 4.56 gears with 33 tires, but looking to go 40" with a lower gears. Does anyone have any experience with engine swaps and is there a good mechanic in the Atlanta metro area that would be has experience with this. Looks like I could be selling a completely rebuilt 4.0L I6 with about 100miles on it and completely refurbished 32RH. Any help appreciated. Thanks

I'd look for a Gen 4 with a 6L80 if you plan on going to 40s. Gives you a much stronger transmission and a 4:1 first gear. Stay away from the L60s

Just for reference I sold my 4.0 for $300

I don't usually post news or anything that might advocate/instigate anything political or whtvr ...

but I've been following info updates about drones & swarm tech for a decade now . I even have little rc drones helicopters toystuff ..

these are gonna be great as the used or 'misplaced' ones eventually 'make' their way into hands of terrorist groups. Very frightening.
 I think maybe im gonna print some targets w drone outline on 'em  ...
