It is kinda pricey Mike....like we discussed today, you have shit pile of money to dump into to get it wheelable at all. You told me yourself, you were finding ready to wheel rigs with tons for 6K.... You would be better off buying a turn key rig ready to go, than build this one. Just my opinion. You still have to get axles, coilovers, t-case, gears, lockers, install kits, driveshafts, wheels, tires and various other smaller items.... Im telling you bro, if you have every listened to me or any one else,,,, Id buy a rig already built completely and ready to wheel. With the economy, people are selling rigs off left and right for way way way less than whats invested into them...And you gotta factor in the cost of going all the way to Murfreesboro TN and back to get the jeep. Just a friend offering you some advice.

I am not paying 3800 for it. We agreed on a lower price. Also, If you read everything that is on it, 3800 would not have been that pricey at all. Hell, If you build a buggy, the Tubing for that would be half that cost. Then you have to factor in all the other stuff. Guages, heims, seats, skins if you want em, fuel tank, wiring, and then your labor. I am sure I am forgetting something that is included. This fits in what I can afford at the moment. I can then buy what is needed piece by piece when money comes in. Like they say, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
