Deeezy's Locked Sport Grocery Getter Build

can I ship some beer from SD?

 

So thats a no? Ill put it in a cooler with dry ice and hope it floats down towards you okay

 

Hey man about the whole no brainer... I have no clue what to shop for when the time comes. Like which option do I pick and how do you order stuff for the front diff? are we 8.4" or 8"?

 

Call Chase at ECGS and order over the phone with him. Let him know you need help with what exactly you need to order and he'll go through the list with you and help you with everything you need. Chase is the man! If you're a sport you're an 8.4" and Offroad is 8"

 

ah okay! Thanks bro heck you may be the one helping me install so watchout. Might save it for my birthday next year but I want to get a quote to save up for. After I drop 5k on my trip to barcelona and ireland for school.

 

It'll be roughly $2400 after you ship back your 3rds

 

for front and back with no lockers?

 

My bolt for the rear Superbump sheared off and I lost the bump. Replaced both with Energy bumps, about half the price...But, the bolt for the Energy bumps was pretty small too so dunno how tough they'll be either.

For front arb locker, and gears

 

ah okay, Im not looking to do lockers yet just gears. Ill retain my sport limited slip right?

@deeezy sorry for clustering up your thread

 

Yeah, we Sports have an 8.4. I called every time I ordered from them. They are very helpful and cool. And definitely get lockers while you are regearing. I made the mistake of not getting a front locker the first time and ended up wasting a bunch of money re-ordering the front. It is by far the most effective mod to make the truck more capable.

 

gearing or locking is the most effective mod? So you dont have a rear locker? If I get lockers and gears Ill need a compressor and then Im looking at about 5k right?

 

No no. That $2400 is the quote I got and that included the arb front locker.

 

We don't have a real limited slip. I feel that you are less likely to break something when the truck has lockers because you can crawl slowly and steadily without any wheel spin over hard obstacles. It is like night and day being locked front and rear. When I only had the rear locker, I still couldn't make it up on some of the harder obstacles, with the front locked also, the truck just walks through it.

 

Lockers should have been my first mod out of everything.

 

oh dope, I really want the whole ordeal but since I find it hard to get out and crawl I think gears are more needed now. Plus compressor from ARB is expensive so I can only imagine what their lockers would run

 

@Pirhett I just have the tiny ARB compressor that's only used to activate the two lockers. It wasn't expensive and you can fit it easily in the engine bay.

 

Yes, the lockers are expensive. Iirc, close to $900 each. But, ECGS will be building your diffs and can install the lockers for not much more.

 

@Pirhett At least consider getting just a rear locker while doing all of this.
