I'd love to have this Jeep!

The Jeep J8!

2.8L Turbodiesel
Four-link coil front suspension - Dana 44
Leaf spring rear suspension - Dana 60
2,756 lbs payload capacity
7,716 lbs towing capacity

Too bad they're only being produced in Egypt now, I think.

Very nice for the military, but maybe a bit much for normal wheeling...

I think the diesel would be awesome for use on the trails, but the Dana 60 / leaf spring rear might be a bit much unless you are towing; it's very heavy, takes away some clearance, and reduces articulation. I'd like to see that diesel motor put in a current Rubicon with front and rear Dana 44s, lockers, and the 4 to 1 ratio transfer case...

Your only conplaint is the axle. It seem like the good would outway the bad, besides you would not have to worry much about braking the rear axle I would still take one. and it come with a nice front bumper+sliders.
