I use to have Farmboys cell#, I do have contact with him via E-mail, you have a question you want me to relay? I heard he is moving locations and changing his business from retailer to strictly manufacturing/wholesale.

The right price I suppose, she is my baby though. The only thing I'd replace it with is a heavy hauler crew cab, probably 6.7l PSD. I've been offered 14-16k for it before I SAS'd, I said show me the money, save me from doing a axle swap otherwise price goes up.

I'll hit him up, the full kit price was shy of 2k for me.

Iduno man, -Klitch has some biggy cash tied up into that thing , - shoot, it even runs rich. ;)

jbrew 09-25-2010 04:29 PM

Hey did you sand blast your frame ? - Up front ? I was thinking about that. Anyway, I wouldn't mind haven that factory new look back. Like your axles have, - looks great!

Klitch 09-25-2010 05:22 PM

No, I actually hadn't done that yet but it crossed my mind. I just wire wheeled off the flaky crap and reshot it black, with a layer of clear.

She does run rich, ask my wallet.

okay great. thanks for the help...and if he doesnt mind, could you give me his contact info?

im not ready to buy yet so I dont want him thinking its a sale. I just want to talk to him about what i can get and what my kit would cost...im going to be leaving out a lot of the extras at this point and kind of build it up to his complete kit...there is a lot of his products i want but cant afford right now. :(

PM me your phone number, I have news for you. I'm correct in the moving the shop, just the time frame has been altered. I will be passing your number along, I will not be hassling you ;)

Been asked a few times about this, so I'll post a few pics to help give an idea.

so all you did for mounting them was just drill holes in the frame for the rear and on the front welded plates and strength beams for the hangers? seems simple but is it strong enough?
