Cheers man!
The engine will definitely be engineered. Maybe the axles but I dought the suspension and tyres will, as much as I'm going to try. With vsb 14 comming into play in WA already it makes it hard for the engineer to pass even if he thinks its safe.
The plan is to be able to drive it to comps, hopefully not break anything too important and drive home. Maybe only have to change wheels to keep the boys in blue happy.
Cheers Coffman will have a squiz.
Cheers Aaron, definitely some impressive jks, im trying to bring back some love for the swb crew. Its not what's in the coffee, its getting to the coffe shop...those curbs are getting massive now

Sick! Friicking sick! I drove the new Chrysler 300 SRT8 at work the other day (has the 6.4L Hemi for those who don't know) and was thinking how cool it would be if someone put one in a Jeep. Awesome stuff man!!!

The problem with the axles is the width, even though it will be more stable, stronger and have better brakes, vsb 14 will only allow a 50mm increase in track width (from memory). Might be able to get close with backspacing.
The mig welder help alot with providing settings and after watching coutless vids on YouTube I had a pretty good idea how it all should work
Cheers Glenn, I will try and get in contact in a few days to sort something out
