I had one for a while years ago. It had the lift kit and the big tires and wheels along with a slightly bumped up V8. It didn't have the tilt front end. 
I could sometimes pull the front wheels off the ground coming off the line and if I nailed the binders at about 15mph the back wheels would lift almost a foot off the ground.
It was fun to drive around but I never got over the feeling that I was going to roll it. I've also known three people who died by rolling those things. A fun toy by all means but IMO it's stupid dangerous. As a former owner I say -- just say no!

CG - i was thinking this would be an awesome 1 lap contender! 
I also had a CJ5 around the time my first son was born....it lacked any smog stuff, so the exhaust seemed to smell up the inside, so I sold it...... this one rocks though!!!!
