First, I got a chance to compare my rig to a stocker today...
Took a measurement, looks like with my build I netted approx 6-7"s of lift.
And to the $$ Question, was discussing with my wife and my insurance agency regarding worth of my rig. I really didnt have an answer. So maybe I thought I would ask the EB experts ;D.
Simple run down on the rig, its a pretty much dedicated trail rig.
74 Shell more or less, sheet metal is poor, fiber glass, bondo, rust, etc.. I did however replace 90% of the floor and fire wall with 1/8" plate.
Bob's all4fun family cage
351 roller motor from a 96 f-250 still efi, c6, 205 all unknown mileage but work flawless. HD saginaw P/S pump.
Custom dash with summit gauges
Custom core support with a 96 f-series radiator and taurus fan with a hollister road fan controller.
Its sitting on a 96 f250 2wd frame, I think I did a better then average of mounting on the frame-body.
40/16-16 LTBs with GREAT tread no patches or plugs just some rock rash. DIY 32 bolt bead locks.
Front d60 (ball joint from a f350 1995) stock inners, 35 spline spicer outers with "sexy" drive flanges, Lock right, 5.38's, set up with radius arm wedges and custom length radius arms with 1.25" heims at the ends, 3/4 heims over the knuckle steering and hiem ended trac bar. 18" travel fox 2.0 air shocks. limit straps/bump stops. 1310 front drive shaft, solid industries diff cover.
Rear 14 bolt shaved (no leaks) disc brakes, 5.38's welded carrier (orb of traction) ruffstuff traction bar kit, 1350 rear drive shaft. explorer leafs springs with ruffstuff brackets and shackles. custom front rear bumpers, m8000, comfy racing buckets and 4 points, b&m shifter. Ruff stuff diff cover modified for shave.
No wiper set-up (at all) new heater core but needs blower motor, door are there, they shut and windows go up/down other then that in really poor shape. Better then average hard top.
Fuel tank is rear tank from 96 f250 tucked up high and tight in the frame all stock tank with stock sending unit/fuel pump.
I am sure of other things.
I was thinking in the $7500 range after going through alot of sale threads on Pirate. went through sale threads here, but not a lot of "real" trail rig types for sale. I am not looking to sell, more just a general idea of value.
