From the side anyway. Wheelbase and overall width are still more than I'd care for.
JL-8 actually looks decent

Fred knew what he was doing with that one. It’s from 2018.

It's that a four door with the two rear doors eliminated? I always liked that look on the JKs
OP
Based on Apparition's link I think they used the stock 4-door JL 118" wheelbase on that. The tub is ~5" wider than a TJ which is honestly already wider than I'd like.

Yep! It was one of the first few JLU's to roll off the line for consumer purchase and they bought it and drove it to the shop to tear apart.

Huh. I'll have to look for that episode. I have a subscription to MotorTrend TV and am a DED junkie. Is it a full episode or an extra?
I know what I'm doing tonight for my "TV and glass of bourbon" cool down before bed!

You guys made me watch it at work today. Not super detailed but a cool build and they head out to JV.
yeah, I watched it too. It is a cool build, but Dynatrac just build that with Fred (and his dogs) hanging around. I looked like it worked...OK. Didn't see a ton of flex in it. I do like the 4-door length with the two rear doors welded up. I've always liked the Idea of a TJ-6 too. The proportions are just right. However....I don't have a budget big enough to get the tire size up to that wheelbase. Wouldn't mind doing the work...but all the supporting mods for 40's....OUCH! How's that build coming, app?
