Interesting Change to the DMAX

We had this thread going on my 4x4 site... ... I was TOTALLY shocked @ my total! I only owe $3600 on the truck still!



Lets see since buying the truck last June.



$1700 for DD clutch & input shaft

$550 for tires

$200 for stacks

$250 for traction bars

$150 Air Filter system

$400 for Line-X

$110 for window tint

$X00 for new turbo (should be here next week I hope!Oo. )

$300-400 stereo

------------------------

$4360 DANG I was thinking I was right @ $3K and I bet I'm forgetting something.
 
At least one set of tires (550), AFE intake (2xx, can't remember), Southbend FE clutch (can't remember), new HX40 turbo (1000), window tint (70), and probably around 500 on normal maintance.

I am sure I am forgetting multiple items, but I have too many cars to take care of to remember each part change, I only remember the good ones.

A whole bunch!!! I just dropped another $4100 into it yesterday. :{



Let's just say that I have spent a lot more on my truck in the past few months than I have on my girlfriend- and she is well aware of it. I NEED HELP!! :-laf
 
Way more than I should have

Transmission and Flexplate $4200

HRVP44 $1500

misc. gauge, fuel lines etc. 600

AFE 100 (homemade housing)

Batteries 100

Probably more but I forget
 
Your kidding right? I could count, but I don't need to. My wife reminds me every month or so. I think last year in one month I put in about $6500, for a few items.



Oh yeah, the KORE RACE a few months back, that's $3500. Switching from a DRW to SRW, painting the SRT-10 hood and bed, another $1K.
 
Lets see...

nv5600 3500

SB Con OFE 900

Dana 80 2100

P7100 conversion 5000

Bell USB 1700

Dodgezilla and ex man 1100

Cam 500

twins 4000

second p7100 2350

Fass 600

new top turbo 850

Baling wire 200( not really)

3 sets of injectors 1200

I'd have to get an itemized list for a better idea.

Hey, and I'm still just barely over 400 hp.
