400 TRANSMISSION:
NEW Turbo 400 trans from GM, odified by The Toy Shop Transmission in Pomona, a. $1500 with new converter, ustom valve body and shift points, ill shift into first gear at any RPM for racing or mudding. Shifts very firm, ut not too hard to break, his meant that we had the valve body in and out of the transmission 5 or 6 times to get the firmness adjusted just right (quite an effort). Has heavy duty trans cooler $100. Also has B&M ratchet shifter $350 with reverse lock out. Has Extra Large Capacity, eep Trans Cover ($200) with Stainless Steel Allen Fasteners, rand new filter and oil and fiber type gasket all serviced thisNovember2015.
205 TRANSFER CASE - Twin Stick:
NP 205 transfer case with all new bearings by Tri County Gear in Pomona, a. $800 rebuild with shift rod modification for twin stick operation. The NP 205 hardly ever needs a rebuild, hey are gear driven and VERY strong units. But, ou can't have a twin stick ability with out taking it apart to modify the shift rods. So new bearings were installed while it was disassembled for the TWIN STICK modification. This NP 205 has twin shifters to engage front or rear low transfer case individually or together $400. That means it can be front wheel drive. Or rear wheel drive in low transfer case, ithout spinning the front drive shaft while in low. I have 10-12 hours making the shift forks on the shifters toengageand disengage smoothly. Plus it has a brand new GM Speedometercable ($40).
DRIVE SHAFTS:
J.E. Reel in Pomona, a built the rear drive shaft with a NEW rear 1350 CV joint $450 and drive shaft tube with stock rear yoke and new u joints balanced $300. And all u joints on truck are new. The front drive shaft is also balanced with new u-joints in the CV Joint $300. Front CV Joint has been clearance all around the yokes so the yokes won't touch each other during harsh articulation angles. The front drive shaft angle is extreme, nd every trick has been done to ensure its proper operation. You'll be hard pressed to find another truck this BIG that has a front drive shaft connected, nd works, nd works correctly...
REAR AXLE:
Has 14 bolt semi float rear end with 30 spline axles, .5 inch ring gear, :88 gears $250 and a EATON Clutch Type Posi Carrier (it Does NOT have a stock eaton g80 - those always break) Posi cost $900 alone plus bearings etc.
FRONT AXLE & STEERING:
Has a sweet aluminum diff cover ($200) plus Stainless Steel Allen bolts ($25). Front axle has 4:88 gears $170 and is an open carrier, o posi, ana 44 with an Off Road Unlimited cross over steering set up that cost over $1000 with new 2wd steering gear box needed for the conversion. I could have used a Dana 60, t would have been cheaper than the OFU cross over steering kit, ut I wanted the bullet proof, orged, piece, teering knuckle that is only made for the 44. Plus, have broken several dana 60 steering components in the past... Not to mention, he dana 60 has studs in the casting for the passenger side leaf spring pad threaded into the differential case that can (and have in the past) that can pull out! ...the dana 44 has U bolts that are stronger. And you can always look to see that dana 44 u bolts are tight vs. the dana 60 studs could be pulling out and you wouldn't know by looking. That's why I run a dana 44 and not a dana 60. Dana 60's can leave you stranded in the mountains with no steering, t has done that to me 3 times in the past, ll steering related problems. You'll never break the Forged ONE PIECE steering arm from Off Road Unlimited. One last point, he dana 44 axle that you might break is very cheap, 30 to replace if you break the stub axle vs. a dana 60 stub axle is $200. It's a cheap weak link to break. Has Warn Premium manual locking hubs $100.Front axle steering knuckles were cut off and re-welded on with a proper pinion angle, sing a special jig to keep it all straight while welding, o let the front drive shaft work without breaking, nd that cost $1500 to have done and all new bearings and brakes were installed at that time costing even more in parts.
18" LIFT TOTAL:
12 inches of custom bent leaf spring in front,3 inch rectangular tubing welded between frame and front springs for tow hitchreceiver(for tow straps)3 inch body lift - Makes easyaccessto header bolts, park plugs etc. and more tire clearanceTires are 39.5 tall. Would fit 44s no problem or even bigger
LEAF SPRINGS:
Altlas custom leaf springs Front and Rear were bent for the truck and the front springs have a military wrap on them to keep the front from twisting and breaking the front drive shaft, hat cost extra and the military wrap works well at eliminating axle wrap in the front. $700Rear springs have a shackle reversal and NO lift blocks (lift blocks are junk and break).The Front springs are connected to a 4 x 6 rectangular tube with a receiver hitch for pulling out of mud. Works well and gives you the ability to hook to a truck in front and pull out a truck behind you like a train.
BRAKE LINES:
Custom Built, xtra Long, tainless Steel Braided brake lines front and back $200. Plus new Brake Master Cylinder $48, rake bias valve block $75 and rear proportional valve with adjustable hand knob from Wilwood brakes $42 for the back brakes adjustability, ew hard lines $35 etc.
ROLL CAGE:
There is a custom bent roll cage in the cab built with 4130 chromoly tubing that cost $400 for the material alone! I spent lots of time bending the tubes just right to install it right up against the roof and rear cab.
CHASSIS &CAB:
A 1985Rust Free California frame andchassiscomplete with clean title was matted to a 1975 cab with a clean title making one rust free 1975 registered truck. The truck has two clean titles that go with the sale to document the 100% ownership . Everything mechanical on this truck is 1985 except the front grill, ights, ransfer case, rive-shafts, teering,leaf-springs, hocksand the Vortec crate engine. All of the Brand New Air Conditioning is 1985.
CAB RE-BUILD:
Started with a rust free 1975 cab with clean title. Dyno mat sound deadening material wasinstalledall over the bare cab when it was stripped bare and had nothing in the cab $300.
The upholstery was all new in 2008 $800.The front windshield and rear sliding glass and seals are brand new $700 installed this July 2015 when the truck was painted.
The doors are completely rebuilt and have new seals, ew rubber, ew window motors and tracks and new door locks actuators and new switches and new everything like hinges and hinge springs and bushings etc. when I painted it this year. parts are $600
PAINT:
New PPG paint in 2015, he truck was at the paint shop for 7 months and was completely taken apart including the doors and the bed was removed from the frame, ncluding all new glass, eals, ront grill, umper, ights, orns, asteners etc. $3500
39" TIRES & WHEELS:
The tires are new Super Swampers with 2000 miles on them, hey were "trued" which means I had Taffa, Big Rig Shop in Nashville, had Taffa's technicians make the tires round. So they put them on a machine that removes the high spot until the tires are round and drive smooth, his cost $400 to have the tires trued and balanced. Tires were $2150 delivered, he wheels are Micky Thompson 16.5 x 12 and cost $800. That is $3350 for wheels and tires trued and balanced for the street. All BIG mud tires are NOT round when new, nd they will bounce going down the road making you sick from vibration. These are smooth as silk, t the cost of precious rubber removed in the process and at the cost of several hundred dollars in expense to have it done. The truck goes down the freeway VERY NICE! The tires are just the right size for this trucks power and gearing.
SHOCKS:
All shocks are 2 years old and are Rancho RS 5012 (rs5000 series), ll 10 of them. $600
5012 are 5000 shocks but longer than stock for the lift.
STEREO SYSTEM:
The stereo is an Eclipse with IPOD control, as two 12 inch Kicker sub-woofers. 1200 watts of power in a custom install with all the sound deadening material in the cab and it sounds absolutely wonderful, oud, lear, risp and hard hitting. Imaging is great with custom front speaker placement and Kenwood speakers with cross overs using capacitors (old school). Subs are electronically crossed over at the amp. System runs a Deep Cell Battery and 200 amp alternator. cost well over $1500 for parts alone.
Other items like supplies:
If you just added all of this list up, ou will not see:
Nuts and bolts, elding wire and welding gas, rinding disks and sand paper, etal and other materials, rimers and paints, ost of the several different cores that were rebuilt like the 205 transfer case or frontaxlehousing, eplacement gas tanks, ear tow package, hift linkage, nd this list would just keep going if I sat here remembering the build, ..it was a fun build.
