So it bobs a Wrangler JL, does not show a completed project to give perspective and gives you a generic recommendation of sourcing a "6' Ford Ranger Bed" or have a flat bed customed fabricated.

Has all the downsides of the Wrangler JL lower tow and cargo capacity and none of the pluses of a true truck frame and rear suspension. Then you get into the questions of rollover and crash safety of the now chopped up cab?

Hard pass.

There is a picture of a completed vehicle in the registration link. It's pretty bad IMHO. I would think this mod would kill any chance of a resale. Just buy a small teardrop trailer.

This is one of those cases where this guy needs to redirect his free time elsewhere.

JKU, JLU, JT, stepside bed, flatbed, generic fleetside, gladiator bed style.

Close.

This is literally the very first ever Wrangler chopped up to evaluate how to best build a Gladiator.

It looks like the same kit used in that Morgon Olson postal Jeep
