and is it the 5.7 or the 6.1 ? rubicon or not ? and stock axles or not ?

[thebigtman53]

@kootylooty It's a 5.7 in a Rubicon with upgraded axles (front axles are RCVs, outer shell, inner sleeves, lca skids, improved track bar mounts on axle and frame, c gussets and more).

great project bro , what patrs did you need with the aev kit ?

[thebigtman53]

@kootylooty Basically you need a complete engine and transmission. Depending upon which 5.7 you use, you may need a couple of minor extra parts.

I have a question is the AEV Hemi kit only for the gasoline jeep wrangler 3,8L V6 or is it also possible to put in the diesel jeep wrangler 2.8L CRD, cause i wanna buy a jeep wrangler 2/3 doors soon but dont know if i need a gasoline engine for this beast sound.

@crypticunknown

I'm not sure. The best people to call would be AEV. AEV does the military diesel conversions and they would have the answer for you.
