Yeah, exactly what Berettajeep mentioned! With ARB's front & rear. Now, the cost of your planned restoration. Can't be for told. Too many variables to think about. Mainly, what shape the vehicle you start with will determine aproxmatly how much your going to need coin wise. If you start out with a nice body, nice running gear, well, it'll cost you far less than buying a pile of rust & rot on 4 wheels.
Another question you may want to ask & answere is "What do I wan't to do with it?" is it going to be a commuter vehicle, a weekend wheeler? What kind of wheeling will it do? Rocks? Mud? Fire trails? Sand? Do you live in a harsh winter environment? Hot climate?. All these factors should be looked at, for your comfort while driving it. 5 live in California, for me to get to harsh winter I have to drive many miles. I like driving Rocks! don't do mud, unless the mud happens to be on the trail I'm on and I have to go through it to get to where I was heading.
I've rebuilt my CJ-5 motor, and after 2 decades of ownership (20+yrs) i've got over $11,000 invested in her.
One last thought. Your jeep will never be done! Mine is close, but now, I'm stinking about new ring & pinions.
Good luck with what ever you choose to do.
