The Insane Asylum DCLB build and XJ insanity

im not a fan of the style of the bumper or where the winch sits personally

 

ya there is a local shop here that could make one but me and him dont get along to well when ever he started company bashing to make him self look better so he kinda annoyed me

 

Frame chop wiy kit

 

Sounds about right. Only company that I'll downright tell ya is crap and bash their business practice is MC. Everyone else I just notice things and look at the products and will let ya know what I do and don't like about them.

 

ya he does good work dont get me wrong but i had asked if he could make a hard top for my m100 and he said sure that sounds fun! cool man i need it in aluminum an..... oh i wont do aluminum thats weak we can do steel! ummm no? i want it light and strong to hold a tent.... alright alright what kind of rack are you doing on it or are you bolting it to the topper? i plan to go with no weld camping brackets they bolt on like this and work really well! oh those look like complete shit! they are just gonna bend when you hit any type of bump i can make something way better! ummm you sure? they are thick and have really good reviews and loads of people run them? who is the fabricator here me or you! then we got on a tangent about my armor on my truck and i stopped talking to him

 

Got a link? closest thing I see is under custom.

 

This place still alive sheesh it's been a while


Yes still have the taco and heep. Finally after yrs the taco is going under the knife for a complete front end overhaul.

 

At least you went with the Cummins

 

Well duh. Only thing good with a chevy is the allison and ford's haven't had a good engine since the old 7.3L.

I also VIN researched every truck I looked at was looking for specific options they had to max the towing and payload. This 3/4 ton is the max you can get. Bonus is it's been tuned, EPA deleted, and leveled.

 

Yea I’ve got a 21 and it’s a beast. Need that delete though.. can’t get anyone to do it these days

 

I’ve come around to bring anti-delete. The biggest reason being that you’re not getting many shops to touch it deleted if you breakdown on the road. Plus the emissions equipment really isn’t that complicated to diagnose now that shops and OEM’s have their arms around it. It’s fairly easy to DIY with a basic scan tool even these days.

 

Before I knew it was fully deleted I was going to go with these guys and just do it all myself it's not that hard. They offer different tuners too with their different advantages. Unloaded I'm avg. 15 city and hit 28 hwy and combo/country driving 18 mpg. Which is huge compared to the taco. Plus it sounds mean and scoots.

There are a lot of benefits to deleting as well just do what you think works for you. Personally I like not having to worry about def, egr issues, overheating, leaking, DPEF death and all that adds quite a bit of cost to them when repairs and maintenance is needed.

 

But it’s hot outside and im fucking lazy. If I can’t find someone to do it, it’s on the docket to do this winter. Too damn hot to be under a truck on the concrete

 

Jealous of the diesel too.

 

There's a bunch of diesel shops up around where my place is and jacksonville area I bet you can find someone around there to do it. It's not cheap though.

 

Nope.. called everyone in a reasonable half day drive from me. And I’m a guy that drives to Texas several times a year and out west at least once a year. All said no dice.

 

She’s the favorite truck I’ve owned though. Dodge has my vote from now until they start making shitty yuppie trucks

 

Interesting. Let me call around here and see if these guys around here will.

Yeah "Ram" has definitely stepped up the game. My version is a bit yuppie with all the bells and whistles. It's by far my favorite truck I've ever owned.

 

Yeah the EPA cases shops by calling and asking about deletes. Happened to a few different friends who have shops. Around here you pretty much have to be an existing customer or referred by word of mouth only. The EPA enforcement on it is absolutely no joke with big fines.
