      just thought

      is the intercooler with the 2.8l or is it something i would have to get extra as the hemi would not need it
      this goes fro many of the little parts that can really add up in a motor swap/drop in

          On the 3-door, with the flat rear floor, is there any kind of storage under the floor that can be accessed or is it just dead space?

          Is the flat floor a separate section that can be removed from the body or is it welded in.

          I would like to build a water and/or fuel tank to fit in the dead space or perhaps some storage....

          Thanks guys...

            Any specs on the rear springs? length, arch, etc.

            Most of the front suspension stuff should work just fine, but in the rear people are going to have to come up with customs springs.....Deaver, Alcan, National?

            Any ideas what the optimum setup for 37s would be?

              Have any J8's been delivered yet?
              Has the first production run started?
              I live in Detroit area. Would it be possible to come take a look at one being assembled or complete?

              Thanks,

                Not yet, we are hopefully just about there.

                You can see one at our Walled Lake Facility if you call first to make an appt.

                  Has there been any testing comparing the J8 factory snorkel to the AEV snorkel?I noticed that the AEV J8 have the heat reduction hood but still have the snorkel,just curious what thoughts are on the two.

                    J8s have totally different airboxes and it would require retrofitting a JK 2.8L airbox to run the AEV Snorkel. I think its possible but haven't tried.

                      "Wheels are 17x8 steel wheels 5 on 5.5. Brakes are Dodge Ram."



                      what calipers and rotors are they? 1500?

                      What unit bearings do these use?

                      and are any of these parts available? I am looking at converting my 44 that i have to 5 on 5.5 this would be the ticket!!

                      thanks!!!
