The Insane Asylum DCLB build and XJ insanity

I got rid of my cap it's a night and day difference. Good luck with your build it's addicting and very fun.

 

Dang it I want to order something now just for the calendars

 

I'll give you the calendar and poster for the garage as a token of my appreciation.

 

LOL thats funny

 

Ever considered painting your black tailgate red?

 

What's your total cost looking like with the 63s ? I have to make a decision fairly soon on 63s or HD dakars.

 

14" 2.5 King Smoothie w/ RR $838
AG shock relocation $380 (mine was more expensive due to having a LB, SB would be around 350 shipped)
Chevy 63s (5/1 pack for 14-18) $529 (I shipped to a business so shipping was only $150 instead of like 180 to residence)
Ruff Stuff Ideal 63 swap $~300 (can't remember exactly but around that)
Crown +9" extended brake hoses $75
Grand total $2,122


Now I bought new springs which there are cheaper options than the ones I got. Also going a different route with shocks can save some money. The AG shock relocation is a lot more expensive than the BAMF. Eddy use to make a bolt in hoop style one IIRC you can always ask him about that.

Specs for my conversion:
Shocks custom tuned and shipped from Accutune. The custom valving is all put into their price it was a fun process going through this with them. The leafs are rated to 2,235 lbs and have a 7 1/4" arch and are a 3 3/8" thick pack rated to 2,235 lbs. This is different compared to what most go with which are 4/1 pack with 6 1/2" arch and 2 3/4" thick rated to 2,035 Lbs. Now I am probably going to remove the 4th or 5th leaf to lower the spring rate a bit and make the thickness a little less. The arch is what I was really looking at. There are ways to go cheaper that's for sure. This swap is definitely not as cheap as it's made out to be that's for sure. But I knew that going into it. I haven't even incl. the bumps yet as I am going to go with those different height bumps from the toyota bumps place. I just want to get everything put together cycle the suspension and take some measurements and get the right length. I am recouping some money since Chris will be buying my current rear suspension from me.

It's not black it's MGM thank you very much.

I should of known this was coming. It'll be color matched this yr. finally. Other things are going to be red.

 

Oh I forgot one other thing from Ruff stuff little wings that weld to the frame for the rear shackle mount they were like 60 some bucks. All in all I think I am in the 2200-2300 doll hair range for the whole thing. But again you can save some monies in areas. Like the springs you can get what most do for around 300 shipped or so same with shocks. I wanted to try something a little different which could end up not the smartest thing.

 

You ought to paint the tailgate as a Southern cross!

 

Like this

or

 

I was thinking more this



However in retrospect to todays environment it will most likel make you this

 

This ^^^^^^^ = sad truth.

 

Lol this is funny idk it was a thing DCLBMAFIA

 

Just different, like me,

 

I like the idea but you are correct on the target. Sad truth

 

The US patent office has the roll of toilet paper as going over as the proper way. This is a perfect opportunity for self reflextion & correcting the pattern if we have been doing it wrong.
