cool man are you running any type of limited slip in the rear

funny you ask cause i figured i would have it geared instead of doing it myself, save some hours of work for me. i got a quote from 4 wheel parts and they wanted 800 bucks to just gear the truck to 4.56 gears. no LS or locker. screw that so im just going to purchase the gears and a locker and do it myself ha ha like i do with everything.

Its about 300 labor

buy the parts from summit or randys ring and pinion and a truetrac about 700 in parts 400 for the locker 300 for install kit and gears

1000 total maybe an extra hundred for locker install

last weekend i finished up with the front end geometry, and uca design. i had 3 different designs and i think i will go with this one. these are the MOCK UP ARMS and are haggard, i plan on making the finals this weekend for both sides out of chromoly since i have the jigs all squared away. truck front end is jacked up high so at normal ride the caster wont be that much like in the photo.
