AEV 112 the original LJ?

They look much more like a TJ-6 than the TJ Unlimited. Is 112 the wheelbase? If so, then that is 9" longer than the Unlimited, but without the big overhang.
The rear overhang is different.
The AEV 11s also mostly had the highline, I think. Might want to check that, not 100% sure.
Looks like AEV did a nicer job on the longer hardtop design than Jeep did.
Look closely
The filler neck is of course visible , but does it go down to a 3 gallon tank to mount behind the axle?
Also .. this is how it looked under the glass apparently. Your comment just kindled my memory,
The rear is not much different than the standard TJ. The factory gas tank is very likely where it normally is.
I wonder if that vertical support was needed after the glass was installed.
It is similar what is there in the TJ. Below is a screenshot from the AEV forum. Jeep in photo is a AEV 112.
Ok thanks ! , To me it looked like the rear axle is mounted 3-4 " back from the standard TJ mounting , with the AEV 112 mounted even closer to the rear end of the frame.
The other notable differences are that AEV put two regular seats in the back and the roll cage was done differently.

I would love to see a photo taken from the bottom showing the tank and rear end ! Thanks for this photo though !
The gas tank skid is almost certainly from Savvy. If so, the rear frame from the upper shock mounts to the bumper should look about like the rest of ours do.
The OP in that post says Genright skid (see the text in the photo) but is very likely wrong. It is a Savvy skid.
