    Lol, I'd wanna know that stuff. If it's just R&P you're over paying for labor in my opinion, if it's everything it's a good price.

    It's got a cop motor, a 440-cubic-inch plant. It's got cop tires, cop suspension, cop shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.
    it cant be everything. arent the kits like 1200 ea?

    that would be a 25% parts discount with free labor. at least for 3rd gen, not sure about 2nd

    So why did you bring it up already? I'm going to get a set of heavy MT and swap them back and forth with my lighter AT's. I don't care if it is load and sluggish driving to a ride, but then I can keep it quicker and quieter driving daily or long distance and not worry about gearing.

    This includes in both front and rear as well as ring and pinion is a good deal. It's them refreshing everything basically. Probably installed better than it came factory actually.

    because tires are fun to discuss is why I brought it up. also had a couple mention that my truck looked like it had small tires and whatnot so kinda in response to that.

    so you will be keeping 2 sets of tires at all times, hm. what about another trip to Moab, just ride poorly geared out there?

    Because I already have my lockers (aged like fine wine now) but they said I need the RD121, not the RD111, that ARB says I needed. So they added the 121 and are taking my 111 on exchange.
