DiscoveredLC said:Exactly! I would love to find a rig with some extras, but a huge part of this is my dad and I putting our own work into it. Its also a risk picking up someone elses build cause you may find the work is done half assed. Ive seen many post on Reno4x4 where guys had to re-do all the bad work.
Btw... You're payin for it, youre building it...get what you want regardless of cost.
I think all the comments have been in attempt to save you some cash on the mods, but... I get that it's worth you forkin out the extra to do it yourself!!
You've got GREAT local resources here for the mechanicals you wanna do, to learn safely!!
When I dropped the motor, I had the whole gang over to help set it and make sure it was gonna clear and be positioned properly.
You'll find that the fab is the easy part!! Getting into the cases and working w gear sets and stuff requires patience, cleanliness and proper torque specs and such.
