Ever seen a well built KJ? I haven't... until now. This thing has a front solid axle swapped under it, not to mention they are d60's front and rear ($). Pretty sweet for a libby!  |

Although I appreciate the effort the owner went through for that, those tires don't look big enough to require d-60's. The size of the diff would negate most of
the ground clearance.

If someone has enough $$$$ to do that to a KJ than they probably have enough money left over for a set of high zoot D60's from Currie, Tera, etc with better ground clearance than most D44's.

Thats what I heard from the board that I found this. The guy basically threw money at it in the hopes that it got bigger, and this is what he ended up with. He plans on going bigger in the future.

Of coarse it was money well spent... right off the bat getting rid of the ifs up front was a great move... Libbys done in this fashion are awsome wheelers... and I will definatley be doing the same thing ...once libbys get to ten years old or so that I can actually afford one..

I hope the KJ's hold up like the XJ did/do. Lil'red I second the 10yrs/affordability comment ;D

I don't really see what your are trying to prove there. Yes those jeeps are discusting. But, you can also throw money at something to make it a badass, and beefy wheeler. Those people just chose to take the money and make them "pretty". |

But we can only see how they fair out though. 
Here are a coule of pics I found that were cool enough. 
;D
