sounds to me like its a project someone started and got either frustrated with it and didnt finish or ran out of money, we all know how these jeeps can suck some green from the pocketbook, looks like a cool project for someone with time, right off the bat youll have to get driveshafts made, and i would double check the homemade long arms, not everyone takes pride in their work. thats where i would start imo.

good luck hope it works out! looks like it could be a sick rig!
