Curious where you came across a 2015 jk frame?
Frame came from a salvage yard that I do business with occasionally at work. Got it for $500. The only damage on the whole thing was a tweaked front bumper bracket...which I cut off anyway. If you're doing something like this, you can find a lot of minor front collision frames out there that are being sold as "rear section only", but they usually don't have damage past the crumple zone. Anyone that can fab a jeep, can replace that section easily.

Interesting. I have tossed around the idea of throwing the waggy body on a jk frame after watching your build. But quick googling wasnt bring up cheap options.
