    Some weirdness there. Maybe an actual home-stretched body? YJ frame swap? No factory CJ6 extension seams. And the front axle is too far back.

    Stay far far far away from that disaster. Looks like a YJ frame under a homebrew cj5.5 body. Looks longer than a 5, but shorter than a 6.

    It's not a bad idea, just looks like they didn't pick up the tape measure enough.

    So I'm not hating it. Reverse the shackles, pull the front axle forward. Plenty of length for my 700r4/300 combo. An ls based 4.3, whats not to like. At $2500 if its titled go for it ( I'd like it cheaper but I'm.... cheap)

    This is what you get when you put a 101" wheelbase body on a 94" wheelbase frame.

    Obviously a YJ frame with a non-matching wheelbase body. Looks like a seamless CJ6 tub, maybe ‘glass?
