Looks like September will be the date that northridge installs the 60/80 axle package and new wheels/40’s on my JLUR. I’ll have coilovers to go with this. I’ve already added about 1200lbs to my jeep and am more or less riding on my bump stops currently. I’m considering a 392 to match with the weight (plus the additional weight of wheels/tires/axles), but am tempted by the hellcat swap. The problem is that I can’t really find any driving impressions. Has anyone completed this swap? Really looking for real world experiences

Well, went with the hellcat! It’s been a blast. Still waiting on the other work to be done, so I’m taking it easy on stock axles. I’m really amazed at how quick this is and can’t say how much I appreciate the work done at Northridge

I think you chose wisely. My 392 is a great Jeep, easily the best I've ever owned. But my 392 is a bit timid compared to the TRX parked next to it in my garage. That extra 232 HP is nice.

Looks like you're building a serious Jeep. Have fun with it.

How much was ballpark price on this, and how many gallons do you use in a mile?

Thanks for working with us Cameron, that swap came out great.

We'll see you soon for your axle swap!

Like the sign in the Speed shop when I was a kid “Speed costs money. How fast do you wanna go?”😏
