Here’s What a $350,000 Jeep Gladiator Looks Like in the Flesh – Bruiser Conversions
While the Jeep Gladiator is still very much in its infancy, the platform is already gaining some major traction. In the aftermarket community, people have been grabbing these things up and modifying them to the max. It’s not really shocking given the fact that some of the Gladiator’s predecessors like the Jeep Wrangler have been some of the most supported by the aftermarket.
On the light end of things, there are simple bolt-on modifications that have been done to the Gladiator. Some of these might include things like lift kits, big tires, and lights galore. However, for those who want to get a little bit more extreme, we have found that those folks have a place as well.
This time, we take a ride through the shop of Bruiser Conversions. BC is the “leader in Jeep engine conversions including GM Performance LS3, Cummins diesel, and HEMI”.
It seems like, for the most part, we find some street-worthy swap conversions happening in the shop. The LS engine actually seems to be a pretty popular swap for modern Jeeps.
However, this time, the star of the show isn’t a street vehicle at all. Instead, we see what a $350,000 Jeep Gladiator looks like in the flesh. The Jeep in question has been converted to an 850 hp Prerunner. At the heart of the build, we find 427 cubic inches of Whipple supercharged LS power. Throw in things like an upgraded transmission and transfer case along with the custom suspension and this thing is ready to rock. Capable of up to 1200 hp, this Jeep is certainly built for throwing down in the desert.
