JK Truck

I know, it hurts :/
But hey, lets look at the upside..if you're seeing them show up this soon - I'm sure someone is making a kit for it, because obviously theres more than zero interest which means if you really want one you can do it without having to mfg it yourself -- And thats cool.
In about 5 years when the newness is worn off a lot of the current JKs, you'll probably see a lot more of this stuff. And that too is cool. Hooray aftermarket!

I think there would be a lot of interest in the truck personally. Its really not any less practical than a 2door Jeep.
One thing I want to know tho is how can I get this bumper???? or lack there of? I have heard it been called the AEV military style bumper but AEV didn't know what it was. Anyone have any info?

Quadratec has an "AEV Winch Mount" which I think is being used as a bumper in this application (and also on the orange skunkwerks Jeep from SEMA). Product page is here:

Don't know if they're shipping or if any civilian not affiliated with AEV or DC has actually gotten their hands on one... would love more info as well.

I really like the look of it also, and was thinking of going this route but I'm not sure how it would look with full fenders that have not been clipped.

Or a set of those painted to match the body to evoke that Rescue look that I like so much? Hmm...

Sorry, but I'm not seeing how this is more appealing than the JK in it's form as it is now. Why take away the sexy Freedom top/soft top and put that on? You want a truck, get a Dodge 2500 CTD...It looks TONS better....

I want a truck with the capability of a jeep, straight axles and lockers. Please tell me where I can a buy a dodge like that. Plus the top on the truck is removable and in my opinion it is sexy as hell. Just because you don't find it appealing doesn't mean it won't sell or they shouldn't make it.
