That's not a Brute (Brutes have a seperate bed), it's an egyptian military T1 with a little Diesel...it's like an Unlimited, but it has a longer wheelbase. That one has JK D44s front and rear, and I think the tires are 40"s. It does have a modified Brute top (see windows in top), as well as AEV's Highline kit.

The one in the Warn booth is mine. Good pic you guys got...on the right of the pic are Dave (owner of AEV) and I talking.
I'm surprised none of you guys noticed that it's running a set of custom portal axles from Portal-Tek...high pinion 9s front and rear with 2.75 gears, portals take it to about 5.66 with their 2.06:1 ratio. And the portals give an additional 4.5" of clearance. The suspension is a custom Nth* long arm that has insane amounts of flex.
It also has a 5.7L V8/545/241OR, Hutchinson military forged aluminum double beadlocks, and soon to be CTIS...08 Viper Red paint, Highline kit, 40" MTRs, etc. This truck will be daily driven when I finally take delivery.
