Goodbye Cherokee....

[IXNAYXJ]

American Expedition Vehicles has FINALLY announced they'll be selling the kits to build the Brute. Ever since I saw one (before I'd even driven an XJ) I've wanted one of these:

I'm still waiting for final pricing to be released, but this might be the beginning of the end for my Cherokee.

So that means you'll finally get front flares?

Oooo! Maybe I should get TJ flares...so I can tear them off everytime I go offroading.

[87manche]

so, it's a comanche with a TJ front end?
why not just get a comanche, lift it five inches and toss 35's on it?

I'm tired of being a BFUF.

only 500 per year to be built.

 

[gregmondro]

gonna be expensive as shit probably.

They're going to be marketing the kit for sale by itself to convert your own TJ. I'd probably go find the most clapped-out TJ I could find and start from there.

Hmmm, I did just buy a '05 Rubicon Unlimited this morning.... :shhh:

TJ flares are overrated.

Yeah, I'll just get some Bushwackers. :dunce:

[lost1]

meow. I'll stick with my antiquated rustbucket XJ.

 

[ECKSJAY]

:laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

 

[reliablestv]

Ooooo i wander if you can put that kit on a four door

Four door what?

 

[Complex]

An extended cab Brute would definitely be interesting.. but I doubt they'll be doing conversions for those just yet.

 

[IXNAYXJ]

Four door what?

'07 LWB Wrangler I'm guessing.

-----Matt-----

 

[ECKSJAY]

'07 LWB Wrangler I'm guessing.

-----Matt-----

That's what I was guessing, too. That's absurd since the 07 isn't even the same platform...

I don't blame you. That conversion is just plain ol sexy. It may be as close to the Gladiator as you can get. I likes.
