Yea wheeling isn’t cheap! I have had my Yota for over 18years and will be 45 and in past few years just started throwing some money at it. But really want to start to build it they way I want it! Just didn’t have the funds before with two kids. Now they are both almost out of school and doing there own thing I can go back and enjoying my hobby /sport. Yes it is easier to build when younger. You can move a little faster stay up later and not be exhausted for work the next day and repeat. Hard weekend or evening fabricating or wrench next day I feel like I was hit by a truck. Just tell myself it’s part of the fun of the hobby! Nice build!!!
Glad to hear my thoughts on that seem to be on point. And stoked to hear your still out there making it happen and getting back to what you love! Keep it up!!
There’s alot of things that you said were a little unnecessary or could’ve been done or made yourself rather than buying everything & the tuner didn’t find the hp it’s already there..
Like what? The axles trusses and link crossmembers are like the only thing really, and plate is pretty expensive, they are pretty decently priced considering I would have to pay someone to plasma cut it out or live with it being ugly and haggard from me cutting it with an angle grinder. And I tried really hard to avoid the tuner, but I was having issues with the stock computer that I couldn’t figure out that he fixed, that was half the cost there, the tune was just the cherry on top.
Not $800 for everything but not far from it for an ls swap, I don’t do the off-road thing anymore now into the street car racing and I was told I had to spend all this money on it to make it do what it needed to do and I proved that idea wrong. It can be done for cheaper if a’guys willing to do the work
I have a 98 zj 5.2 siting 35's aussie locker front and rear long arm. 02 wj knuckles RCV chromoly
I find axles cheap saw a set of portal unimog axles fr 1750.. just get axles and spend loot on suspension
