I tried the forum app for the iphone but wasn't crazy about it. I still like the mobile setting for the internet browser better.

 

I guess everyone is trying the mobile app and having problems... this is the slowest I've seen this thread in awhile.

 

Finally sold the crusher flares to aguy in washington. Now I can get my crushed tailgate fixed on my F250. ARGH!

 

Hope everyone had a safe and happy Halloween.

Recon: What happened to the tailgate on your truck??

Welllll. long story short, at hunt camp with tailgate down and backed into a stump. The bummer is the F250 has a backup camera near the handle. $1,100 snafu.

 

well yea i guess so! geeez....wait, you and him have a boat? and you havent broken it yet?...must be one tough boat...just kidding justin....

 

well ive pretty much decided not to do anything, and if henry breaks, just do what you are doing and put him back right, im not sure where\who would do that though. Dan mentioned it at RCO but im not sure...more to come on that, hopefully that wont happen....

"almost" beer thirty, posted at 328 on a friday afternoon...ya'll are late starter's huh?

 

I know of 3 or 4 shops that are doing the JK Hemi conversion (none of them local). The price tag for a turnkey swap was nearly double what I have into my DIY setup so far. That is what prompted me to go the DIY route. Although ............. if I had a shop do it, it would be back on the road by now.

Yea, had some stuff to finish up Friday afternoon. So I was at work until the insane hour of 4:00p.m..

yea i think i remember dan saying a 18k price, but im not positive about that one...on the other hand, when you look at the prices they're asking for done ones, and IF they bring the kinda coin, your not at a loss....ill cross that bridge when i come to it....

hey wilky...hummer ......sorry man, had to.....

 

$18k would be a good deal, for a full up-all new parts swap. For a base 5.7L swap, I have seen prices over $23k ......

As far as making money back ......... I have seen fully built JK's with a Hemi, 4" lift, bumpers, all the extras, being sold for $45-$50k. When you consider the price of the JK, plus all of the extras, then you are still losing money in the long run.

Hopefully it will all be worth it ............. Otherwise, there may be a Hemified Jeep up for sale locally.

PS. Where everybody at?? This thread hasn't ever been this quiet. Everyone still hung over from the weekend???
