Design, well it will be a culmination of what i have learnt from the XJ and ideas sourced from the US Rockcrawling scene.
Looking at a Atlas 2, 9" and 44, trailready beadlocks, 38" krawlers, 3 winches, fuel cell, prob holden V8 (cheap), hydro steer etc.
Got some big plans, and with any luck will be a budget build.

dovetail rear?
coils? leaf? air shocks? coilovers?
3, 4, or 5 link?
krawlers are either 37's or 39.5's.
don't think they make 38's do they?
go the lexus v8
or rangie gear is cheap and the 4.6 is decent
hope you are bracing the CJ frame heaps
Sounds wicked, looking forward to the buildup pics and an article
Can I have the dana300 out of the CJ, and the dana 30 front axles?
hehe
get it!
