I’ve never really delved into it but based on a friend’s MOAB it doesn’t look like a plug and play opportunity for either removing it or installing it on another Wrangler. I agree with @ShadowsPapa that taking that risk would be unwise. On the other hand, my friend’s MOAB was really cool with...
I did the ASFIR oil pan and transfer case skids (used from a forum member who bought a 392). Install was easy in the garage on the ground. Sprayed the engine pan with Berliner before install just to diminish the appearance potential. Well built pieces and priced reasonably. For what I need it...
This one is a v6 in Willys garb with the 35’s at Don Franklin Jeep - https://www.jeep.com/hostd/windowsticker/getWindowStickerPdf.do?vin=1C4HJXDG1PW577563&_ga=2.134734897.1342434409.1674171372-611505614.1674171372
Pretty well optioned other than it has the black hardtop.

Jeep’s web site says in stock at Benson Chrysler Dodge Jeep. The Jeep site is acting weird. Lists two 392’s as well.
So I didn’t notice this until I found the Benson web site...
There are so many because of the $$$$’s. The same reason there are more ///M cars and AMG vehicles available. It’s a lot easier to sell someone a $60k vehicle with a 6 than an 80k vehicle with an 8 (even though the 8 is way more than $20k more fun).:devil:
Get a black or white one equipped the way you want and have it wrapped in the perfect purple.
As an aside, that color is really great in person. Rode in one recently that is a 392 and it was phenomenal. Made me actually go build one on the Jeep website.
The Mopar unit is fine for what it is, and the fact it was included in my purchase. However, I would not pay what Jeep wants for it now that I’ve seen it and seen how it is constructed and installed. The coverage is nominal at best for the freedom panels. It is slightly better for the main...
I'd be down if he wasn't so blooming far away. I still think there is a high likelihood of a much simpler problem they want to bilk into 10k. My brother bought a Defender D90 for a song because the dealer told the owner it needed a complete rewire and ECU. Turned out it was a fuel pump relay...
The ZF is a pretty well sorted and stout transmission in most cases. It is used, in admittedly slightly different variations, in a lot of much higher HP vehicles. And there is absolutely no way that I'd even think about the $10k quote as being realistic. I've bought brand new long block 911...
One thing I suggest is to have someone, preferably a lawyer, review the actual policy and its language to determine what your coverage really covers. While many adjusters are good people, even good people make mistakes / assumptions regarding the coverage.
In some jurisdictions you also have...
