Zach, now total everything up. Mine was almost 14k. If you think about it, we could buy a decent Cobra or something of that nature if you add all that up & the cost of the truck. lol

audio- about $4000
the rest of the truck- about $2000

i don't plan on putting anymore money into this truck... i'd like to, but i really need to find something bigger and practical.

since the audio can and will be removed when i get rid of the truck, i'm down to $2000 invested that i won't get back... not too shabby.

I have no idea of where to even start. My truck used to have a lift kit on it, then I lowered it, then bagged it, went through several paint jobs, wheels, front clip, interior stuff, and tons of suspension work. I know I could have bought my truck about 2 or 3 times with all the money I have put into it.

1600 rear axle
1300 front axle
550 tires
200 rims
200 beadlocks
450 for links
150 for coils
130 for tcase

Thats 5780 for SAS so far, and I got lots more to go.

That makes roughly 10280 dollars so far.
