As I've spent a chunk of my morning watching videos on TJ stretches, and more importantly TJ6 conversions, my YouTube wrap up gives me this. So maybe a turbo'd LS or Hemi, Super Dutys, 40s, coilovers, and a TJ6 stretch?My taste doesn't match my bank account.......like most of us around here.

Well I do have a 360 (5.9) block sitting in my shed & a built 46RE... And a wiring harness already built... Just saying... All you need is motor mounts and trans mount...
The 5.2/5.9 route definitely interests me for some reason. I always liked the V8 Dakotas back in the 90s/00s though. Ultimately, I just hope my 4.0 and 32RH hold out for a while! 
At this point, my early retirement option might be a pipe dream......but I'd have cool toys
). The stainless steering skid is going to look so good up front, and provide some much needed protection. Based on my Artec bumper, it looks like I'm going to have to make a small spacer to go between the skid and the steering box mount where you drill. I didn't pull the bumper bolt but it seems like it's going to hit the box if not. Believe there's some aluminum stock laying around here somewhere that should work.
I'm giving some away as part of a gift at Christmas. But I'm planning to vacuum seal some of it and maybe throw it in the freezer so I can spread it out. I've also got some other roasts and stuff that I could thaw and slice up for jerky
I'm a meat hunter, so I don't pass on much that's legal. But, that means that I've killed a deer 6 out of the past 8 years, and two this year. And I've got a friend that stocks me with elk from time to time. We have a whole freezer in the garage that we only use for fish, shellfish, and game. And even that is starting to bleed over into our other garage freezer. A very fortunate problem to have! I was just telling my son how lucky we are to get to eat this meat!
