THE MBRP shop is in Huntsville. You're more than welcome to come by and check us out if you happen to be in the area! Give me a call or shoot me and email and we'll set something up. I'd be happy to show you around.

Update time...The Jeep is back together for measurements, and a fitment check of the motor in the new body and frame.



Engine being test fit in to the bay.



Should fit...... once the firewall gets cut out and the engine gets moved back 12 -15".





Donor engine and trans for test fitting.





New clutch from South Bend.

We might look at doing some sort of tube / rail deal across the top of the bed rails.... something tied into the roll cage .... wont know until we get the Jeep looking a little tougher.
