I mean my mj is stock 2wd but it has 19lbs injectors but I don't brag about I mean its surprised me by what it can do and where it can go

But I'm proud of it and it's mine that's all that matters

motor was 6000. my trans was 2200. my t case i rebuilt cost about 450. my new shafts and bearing where 900 to rebuild. so before you shoot up what i have ask me. k thaks

t case alone the sye is 300. so for 150 he rebuilt it new chain and all. as for the trans 2200 to rebuild stock usually. my axles. 900 for shafts bearings and seals. wasn't a bad price. to help a friend who needed money out. as for the motor. 6000 well lets see
cam
rods
pistons
main bearings
rod bearings
lightened crank- machine shop did
valves
valve srings
valve retainers
push rods
gaskets
new oil pan with baffles to improve oil flow
throttle body machining
intake maching
exhaust manni maching
tht stuff costs money at 150 an hr that's 40 hours labor. I know it takes me about 8 hours to assemble a motor correctly. plus 2 hours to disassemble. theres 10 hours. theres 1500 just labor. then inspect the crank flow test head is 250. etc engines ar not cheap to build.

that's why my blue rig is stock! cuz I don't need all the BS I have unless I was rockcrawling. n I don do that. I spent money in wrong places on my last build. but its cool stuff. I just don't think I should be harassed and told I don't have things I worked hard to buy.

Well Trevor thinks he's the next Ray or something and talks a lot of bull****. And the fact that he asked me to text his now ex girlfriend because I "owed" him is a bunch of **** too. I doubt I will ever see Trevor on the trails or wheel with the club and I'm fine with that. Kids like him make me want to sell all my offroad stuff and go get my SRT8 WK and be done. He's all talk and nothing else. All this talk about motor work blah blah blah blah. I'm pretty sure I have a few connections in the offroad word where I could get some sweet deals. Oh wait I already have. And the other thing, Trevor likes to have keyboard muscles he would never say any of this **** to my face. Just a little boy in a mans world. But he's done circle track so he's a hardcore gear head, lol. Joke.
