South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

Just remember that front axle is going to cost you 5-7G. If you buy it assembled. Plus the 3200 for the rear. Thats right at $10,000! In axles. Yeah, I have 6.7G in mine but still far from 10g lol. Like I told you I have 16g in my swap. And I did ALL the work. If I was 4 linked in the rear add another $3500.00. But since you can't do the work. You're need at least 25g. To even buy the parts like mine and then have the swap done for you. I've called shops in surrounding states. Avg SAS labor cost is $5-7Grand for the install and +-30days.

Nit trying to scare ya. Because I need people to wheel the hard trails with. Just making sure you see the big picture.

And if I had 25G to blow I'd build a rock bouncer. But then again it would cost you 35 for labor. After bolt on parts this is a DIY game or ballers stroke checks

 

Oh and from this last trip of breaking my front u joint and outer axle shaft ear. If I just replace the axle shaft with stock and then get superjoints. The two u joints are like 500. And hope they don't break again to cause my axle shafts from breaking again or buy Rcv axles for ANOTHER $2000 and not worry about it. IT DON'T JUST STOP WHEN THE SWAP IS Done unless you know you spend 20,000 on a sas and then wheel dirt roads

 

Mornin bitches

 

@dan0mite happy birthday dude

 

Yeah, happy birthday @dan0mite!

 

happy bday @dan0mite

 

Morning.

Happy birthday @dan0mite.

 

Done for the day. Maybe take a few days off.

 

yea i think you should you work to hard

 

Lol

 

I'm in no rush for this to be done. As we've been texting you can see I just want it done right the first go around. I think I'm going to start off with 38's since I believe falken and Goodyear makes an mt in that size (both good tires). I've mentioned how much money I've got saved up and like you said this is a project that a loan will need to come into play which is what I will do for the rest of the money that is needed. I know it's an expensive project to tackle but it's all worth it in the end.

After talking with Cap some on this also I came to the conclusion that running 40's and still driving this is will be a no go (comfort side of things). Truck has another 1.5 years till it's paid off so maybe after then I can get a tow rig. We're still discussing which axles are best for me and stuff like that. I wouldn't mind D60's but like he said they're some wide mofos. All in all I have a lot more research to do before I feel comfortable to pull the trigger on this project.

My main goal is to just do it right my first go around and have fun beating on it.

Am I normal for wanting to do this to a 2 year old truck

 

Morning fellow southerners it's Friday!

 

Shit you probably got sa

Whatever front axle you choose just make sure it has Aftermarket support for knuckles and or hi steer arms. And wide axles are good. Do you know why I lowered my truck?? It was 83 tall and 83 wide. Felt tippy and unstable. So I lowered it. Now it's 80" tall on 42s and 86" wide. Cap hasn't wheeled his yet or even done anything remotely hard in either of his trucks to promote a reason for roll over. So that part he can suck it hahah

 


Fired at @SGTCap

 

i havent either i baby mine
