I was thinking about building a few of these. I have the shop, tools, and funds just have to figure out if it would be worth it.

If you could build a quality one for a competitive price that would bolt right up (with Hiltsy's TA mount and such) then I'd be interested.

I'm waiting for a few parts for mine to come in, when its done ill post up detailed pics and take it from there. I am using hiltsy's mount considering its probably the best one out there. I'm not 100% sure about doing this but i am really looking into it. The problem with it is that some people will want aftermarket posi units, axles, and special gearing. There are just so many options with this and i never realized until i started building it. Pricing would be all over depending on what is to go into the rear, but i am very interested to see who would want these. You can pm me for more info about it.
