Well i think i covered everything. Hopefully. It all adds up to $4666 shipped and i think that may include tax, im not sure. Oh wait i forgot tires, damn well make it $5500. Here's what i want, and all the prices ive been given. I may get discounts on a bunch of it if i order it all at once though so we'll see.


arb bull bar-$585

warn xd9000 winch-$825

front and rear lockers, compressor, all wiring $1550 (arb airlockers...if i cant scrounge up enough money then ill wait on these)

front and rear gears (4.56) i only got quoted on front kit-$254 so make the magic number $5750

tera revolver shackles-$175 (or should i get the regular lift ones)

I might get a hefty discount if i order all that at once.

The rest is all recomended by XJpete87

RE 4.5" lift -$750 (w/ zj coils)

tom woods sye and cu driveshaft-$415

Im also planning on getting 5 33" swampers and rims (ones a spare) that will probably run over $1000



Good thing im 15. I got time to save up. just got my job @ 6.50 an hour... not bad. now lets see how many hours i got to work for this nice little kit here. 854. well i got 18 last week and 24 in the past few days. Im gettin there lol

that's a hill to climb!

The front gear quote may have included a new carrier (if you're going ARBs you'll be replacing that, if you're not going ARBs you'll need one)...

most of the numbers are"in line", but I'll betch'a that you could do some shopping around and cut a few hundred bucks (each hundred will be about 20.5 hours after taxes) - well worth the effort...

Of course, your position is exactly why so many people build in steps...

Bullbar can come at any time.
Winch should come after the bull bar
You could do the lift anytime before tires.
Tires will need to be in close proximity to gears (I prefer to gear, then tire -- not the "cool" way though).
Rear locker could happen at any time.
Front locker should be installed with the gears (for the economy of not having a carrier mis-match requiring the purchase of a carrier you'll take out if you gear first, or a locker that you'll replace if you lock first)
The air compressor for the lockers should come damned close to the lockers (really should be installed with or before your first locker, so you can test and play).
Revolvers should happen with or after the lift ('with' will allow the longer springs to compress better)


That way while you're working the 1150 hours (forgot that you'll be paying Uncle Sam et.al.) without spending money on ANYTHING else (hope you're riding a very durable bike to work with enough life in it to last the whole year, OK, most of a year, 47 weeks)... you can still make some progress...
