Nice LJ. I have a 6.2LS/6L80 combination in my 2011and love it. I integrated mine with the Jeep BCM as well so everything functions as if OE. Have 40k miles on this setup now and could never go back. Great looking Jeep and we’ll thought out Dennis. Mike
My LJ just told me it is now identifying as your sweet LJ Dennis! Someday I hope to do a few of those mods to mine, but probably not 42's. Haha Very nice!
Hi Dennis, awesome LJ! Any bad manners with the detroit lockers? I love the idea of doing just what you did but of course you hear the stories with the poor road manners, etc. mainly I just wheel my jeep but do drive on the hard-road as well.
How do you like the PRP seats? I want to swap the seats in my JK. It's mostly a trail rig, but I still drive it around town in the summer, and we still like to take it for Sunday drives. I'm concerned about daily drive comfort. Also, what did you do about the seatbelt buzzer?
The selt belt buzzer was easy to short out. PRP make quite a few different styles, so I'm sure you could find something that would work. They seem to be good quality.
It's about an 18 gallon tank, and yes I swapped out the headlights for some Quake LED bad boys...I can actually see now. Also added some rock lights and B piller lights coming from Quake as well.
yeah this stuff is nasty expensive to build. Full nemesis armor, the wheels and tires alone are 10K the motor conversions are 25-30K coilovers 4K axles 19K ..... Awwwhhhhh don't remind me lol
I've done 392s in my last 3 JKs, and the guys at Bruiser Conversions make a great kit for the TJ/LJ ... I'm really liking the 6.2, with a tune it's close to 500HP....what's not to like ? Lol

An absolutely beautiful build! Its nice seeing it without a bunch of over the top branding decals.
You have a wonderful jeep . It still hurts my heart to do any changes to my 2006 LJ , so it's still all original.
Totally makes sense!
So wow! this lj is over the top Dennis! I'm building one and this build is changing my mind! love it
Wow...look what you did! Beauty and Beast. Good on you Dennis✌🏻
That’s one hell of a build! Can’t wait to see some videos of it out wheeling!
Wow 😳 just an outstanding Jeep build up. Makes me wanna do a few more mods to my 05 Rubicon! Well done 👍. Can’t wait to see some on the trail video.
Wow! What a awesome build and it probably performs as good as it looks. 👏👏🔥🔥🔥
The off-road blemishes are what make it really bad ass. When I win the lottery I’m taking a road trip to Teraflex. 😀
Awesome build. Glad you made this video, been waiting to see it Thanks
Wow, Great build, thanks for sharing...
That is so awesome. I can’t wait to see it in person.
Absolutely Awesome My Man!!! Truly Beautiful and Bad Ass all at once!!! Nicely Done!!! 👊🇺🇸
AWESOME build Dennis and Team! 👍
Nice work Dennis, that thing looks clean and functional ✌️
Great walk around Dennis! It was nice to meet you over the weekend and see this beat in person. Cheers -Juan
Thanks for saying hi, it was fun to chat a bit.
Glad to see you with an awesome Jeep! Keep us updated on your adventures in it! Maybe do a video series?
Thanks for the idea!
Dream build!
Love it. Maybe some day my LJ will be that nice.
Looks great Dennis!
That is amazing
We're glad you think so!
Great build, thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful Rig Den!
Very nice build!
Nice build Dennis. 👌
Woot!

Was waiting for you ti start it!
Dang..what was I thinking?? Lol totally should have shaken the rafters
My LJ just told me it is now identifying as your sweet LJ Dennis! Someday I hope to do a few of those mods to mine, but probably not 42's. Haha Very nice!
Right on!
awesome Jeep!
Awsm jeep
Very nice setup. Lots of work... and $.
Very nice!
It’s awesome.. all I want for my LJ is a Dana 44 up front.

Sweet LJ
Nice rig, I have a JLU would love to get a LJ one day as a legit trail rig. Probably going to cost just as much....
Sweet rig
6l80? Awesome!
Absolutely awesome build. What axle widths did you go with 63.5 or 67"? Thank you & again Stunning build!
How about an update on the Jeep and Dennis
Sweet rig! Where do you mount a spare?
Very cool! Was curious what you used for the gas tank filler tube/gas cap?
The Genright tank allowed for a fill cap in the rear left rear corner inside the Jeep on the floor next to the tail gate. It works great
when you going to showcase the Smokey and the Bandit Trans am?
Nice ride. Where is Slimer?
He went to a different home!

If u have Atlas TC, don’t they have selectable ratios? (More than just 3:1)?

Any front stretch on this build?
Beautiful, but stock headlights?
They gone lol
Was the engine and trans a pull out or did they come in a wood box?
Sweet ride
Trans was in a "wooden box" and is built.
The motor was out of an escalade...I got lucky, it's a runner
How big of a gas tank do you have? And going to put some LED headlights plus some auxiliary lights as well?
It's about an 18 gallon tank, and yes I swapped out the headlights for some Quake LED bad boys...I can actually see now. Also added some rock lights and B piller lights coming from Quake as well.
Starting from a stock LJ, to end up exactly as his... $? I get over $20k, but are we talking over $50k, or over $90k?
Probably $50ish plus. I imagine he’s got $20,000 just in the axles.
yeah this stuff is nasty expensive to build. Full nemesis armor, the wheels and tires alone are 10K the motor conversions are 25-30K coilovers 4K axles 19K ..... Awwwhhhhh don't remind me lol
I’d estimate minimum 150k. Especially ,If you farm out any labor.
Hi Dennis,
I'm sorry who makes the rear fenders?
Nemesis industries. all the body armor on it is Nemesis...good stuff
Why not go with the 392 Hemi? Just wondering.
I've done 392s in my last 3 JKs, and the guys at Bruiser Conversions make a great kit for the TJ/LJ ... I'm really liking the 6.2, with a tune it's close to 500HP....what's not to like ? Lol
If you want to spend more money and have less power, reliability and no 6l80 transmission, why not?!
No Falcon shocks?
They are trying to keep up with JL and JK stuff my coil over project was a pretty low priority lol. Foxes are however, no slouch
Wish you had stretched a tj and not destroyed a LJ.
