Mopar Announces Jeep JK-8 Conversion Kit Price

If you want to transform a four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited into a two-door pickup truck, it will cost $5,499 (before labor), according to Chrysler's Mopar parts and accessories division.

The Jeep JK-8 conversion kit consist of 18 parts that include a short 50-inch cargo box floor, half a hardtop, a lower bulkhead, inner and outer rear body panels, several brackets and two bedrail extensions. A host of body, rollbar and floor modifications are also necessary, not to mention some serious welding if you want the looks of the JK-8 Independence project truck we drove earlier this year in Moab, Utah.

The kit, which comes with a three-year/36,000-mile warranty, is now available for ordering through Mopar at Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram dealerships. The warranty covers kit materials and workmanship performed at a Chrysler Group dealership.
