Phoenix JK - V8 Swapped 2-Door Ready to Dominate the Trails

We made some big upgrades to the trail proven Gavel JK. So big, in fact, that we decided to change the name and look entirely. What we ended up with was the Phoenix JK.
After a nasty roll over, the Gavel was in rough shape. After spending months in a garage without being touched, we convinced now owner and ambassador Mark Eller to let us have a shot at returning the build to what it was. What we didn't tell him is that we planned to go much bigger.
The Phoenix features a ton of upgrades including King 3.0 internal bypass shocks, a custom Genright cage, PRP Seats, and a 5.3L LS engine thanks to Bruiser Conversions.

  • This build is beyond ridiculous, Marks “oh my god” at the end says it all. Great job turning that roller into a high roller 🤩

  • That’s one hell of a change in look. I know I’d be happy with it, hopefully he is too. 3.0 IBP coilovers! That’s just overkill! In 5 more years king will have 5.0 coilovers. I don’t even understand how they’ll fit on a Jeep but somehow they will LOL

  • I remember watching the roll over the other day and hearing in the video “that this isn’t even my Jeep”. All I could say is ouch. Curious how much the engine was. Watched a video that the person asked how much a brusier engine swap is and I thought they said $27k. That two door is going to be awesome inside and out! Sounds awesome! Looks freaking awesome! Y’all are the pros!

    • RockstarGarage I know y’all did way more than just the engine swap but are y’all considering doing engine swaps more often and if using engines from a used engine yard how much would just that part of the upgrade cost? Do y’all strictly use GenRight parts for cages or do y’all work with Poison Spyder also?

    • Well it’s hard to say but the kit from bruiser is around 8k, decent motor is 2k and the install would be close to 2-3k I would assume at a local shop Remember this is the junkyard swap not a beefed up LS3 or something like it
