02 Superduty Front HP D60, hubs out, rotor's off. ARB + 5.38 gear install + hubs install, no gear install kit.
03 Superduty 10.25/10.5" Sterling rear, complete. ARB + 5.38 gear install, no gear install kit.

Axles out of the rig. He quoted me just voer $1200 for the 14 bolt rearend, and he was saying about $450 in parts, 80 in seals for the front axle and I'm guessing the rest would be in shims and bearings and oil....?

I can get my own master install kits for about $300 so if he's charging me more I'll just order them up since I still have to order an ARB and R&P. I waited all weekend to find out if I need to order those kits up or not.

I'll plan on buying the install kits so that he can't mark them up any more, and then hit up totally off-road to get the ARB R&P and kits ordered up. He quoted me a little over $1200 for the 14bolt install (i dunno if hte 10.5 will be cheaper, but I know the install kits $80 more for some reason....)

I'm also gonna get a complete quote from TOR and probably shaffers and go with whoever gives me the best deal. I'm down with paying you for the work to get the good guy deal. I just have the cash burning a hole in my pocket and gotta get these fuckers built in time to get them on the XJ for the Rockgods 'Con run. It's comin together slowly.

I think $70 a set is a good price at the moment. You give me the dimensions, I'll cut it for you. Pick your text/wordage/logos???

Lessons learned the first time around, make the letters a little smaller, and 15" wheel = 16" OD ring. The more metal the better, less the rocks will fuck up.

As you can see, un cleaned right off the table, the heat distortion and what not.

Also for some reason the center circle in the program seemed to come out of round, that will be fixed for the second set.

ACTUALLY,SINCE LD IS GONNA RUN SWAMPERS THE CENTER CIRCLE MIGHT LOOK JUST RIGHT!!!!TSLs=NOT ROUND.....

I'll work on some prototype 17's tommorrow with Low Budget PIMPIN (OR PIMPING!?!?) I kinda like the Hang'n and Four Bang'n one though :)

Blue, the outer lip that they always attach the weigths to is basically where they sit right inside and you weld. The rock ring keeps that lip from getting peeled back, or in, basically strengthening that edge that is constantly being thrashed on a rock.

I'm not sure if your fakey beadlocks would work, you might wanna look for a set of old used and abused steelies that you could use.

here is a different design with skinnier lettering. I kept the text at a slight angle rather then going with the blocky skinny letters to try and keep the old look. Also added some space in there, these look planer though :(

I was thinking the same thing, but finding the right text is a pain in the ass, they are either too fat, too skinny, wrong shape, etc.

They will be when I cut them out. If I don't get them done by tomorrow it'll be a month wait until we get to the new office and have our tables set up ready to roll.

Unless you moved to Sun Valley, into LD's septic tank bomb shelter, with his custom wheels, I dun think so :Big Grin:

Seriously though, LD can chime on this development?
