That's awesome!! I wouldn't mind a donation of your rubi transfer case haha :thumbup:

I had heard rumors that they were looking at old EZ-GO electric motors for a "greener" reputation, those being more reliable then a Prius motor ... :cheesy:

Wow this is gonna be sick! :beer:

 

[estim8d]

That is awesome!

Love the LS route - smog legal too right?

 

[The Wandering Jeeper]

As long as Moby doesn't become a trailer queen. Just say'n.

This is everyone's dream man. Glad you two get to do this upgrade.
Moby is already one sick rig. This is just going to make it a cut above.

So guys, when you do this do you have to reset your coil rates on the front for the additional weight?

Believe me, the 1.5L EFI was a real close second. :crazyeyes:

That is awesome!

Yes, it is. :yup:

Trust me, that would never happen.

Well, the 6.2L aluminum block is only slightly heavier than the 3.8L so we shouldn't have to change our suspension at all.

Well, I was also thinking about all the other things you are changing out to like the transmission and transfer case. I know the Atlas adds a few pounds.

The transmission is definitely heavier and while the 2-speed Atlas is heavier as well, I don't think it'll be enough to matter. If it is, we'll address it at that time.

RubiCAT will be getting an upgrade

I thought Rubicat had a Pro Rock 60 already? Or does it have one up front? :thinking:

RubiCAT has stock axles front and rear. :yup:

 

[The Wandering Jeeper]

Are you all going to try the PR80 up front too so you can transfer both D60's to Rubicat? Might as well jump in all the way.

Awesome. Curious how many mile on Moby now? Seams like you drive it everywhere. I hear nothing but good things about the mo tech LS swaps. If my jeep wasn't brand new this would be the swap for me. Done the HEMI thing in my TJ already. But the underlying star is the Chevy transmission.

 

[NFRs2000NYC]

Just out of curiosity, how does the rest of the Jeep (specifically the electronics) play with the new engine? Will you constantly drive around with the entire panel of idiot lights lit up?
