Fully tube cage exo skeleton Rock-crawler 12 inch lift 37 inch tires Air lockers front racing seats with four-pointseat belts. The crawler was built from the ground up by 4 Wheel Drive factory it has every top-of-the-line part installed. The Cage alone cost $4000 to make. Yukon Air-locker's and gears front and rear with 5.13 year ratio. 37 inch pit bull rocker tires, has front racing seats and rear bench seat  The front seats are equipped with four point seat belts. D 60s front and rear with chrome moly axles. The transfer case has been built and converted to a manual shift. The transmission has also been Built and geared down for torque.The list goes on and on i'm currently waiting on a parts list for everything and all their prices from the Guy who built it at four-wheel-drive factory. The crawler cost more than 25K to build. The cage cost 5K, the axles cost at least 4K, at least $3000 in the lift kit alone .Not to mention all seats belts,tires,wheels,lights, plus the hours upon hours of labor and all the stuff I'm forgetting. If you added up all the costs of all the parts and labor it would be way over 25K to Build the whole thing. The only thing you would really need for this car would be a compressor for onboard air and may be one tire. Only thing that you could do to make this truck any better would be to put bigger tires on it and Hydro steering. However this thing is ready to run ready to get crazy in the woods and has the torque and the equipment to do it. This thing will go up a wall it's an amazing machine that you're getting for Less then half the cost it would be to build one. This thing really is a beast, I just have other projects that I'd like to have the money for the only thing I would be interested in is a Dodge Cummins diesel truck four-wheel-drive no Dully. I'm sure I'm forgetting something with all of the other things it has on it I will also be adding things as I remember them and when I receive the list of parts otherwise message me if you have any questions preferably here on eBay.
I'm listing the buy it now price it 9500 dollars but if you have an offer  even if it's something you think is low balling shoot me a pm I will look at any offer.  We can work something probably some how especially if you have some cash and something that I might be interested that has a motor.
The only thing still Jimmy about this entire build is the actual frame engine and parts of the transmission.

GM recalling 54k Cadillac SRX, HD pickup models

Thu, 01 May 2014

There are more recalls to report General Motors, but these latest actions pertain to newer examples of the Cadillac SRX, Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD. With so much scrutiny on the company's recall strategy, GM is under increasing pressure to call in defective models more quickly, and it appears to be doing so here.
Here in the US, the automaker is recalling 50,571 Cadillac SRX crossovers from the 2013 model year fitted with the 3.6-liter V6 because the transmission control module programming can cause a three- or four-second lag in acceleration at low speeds. The explanation filed with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration states, "if the following sequence occurs within two seconds: during an upshift from first to second gear (8-10 mph), the driver then brakes the vehicle to less than 5 mph, and then accelerates again," the delay can occur. According to Automotive News, the recall effects 56,400 vehicles worldwide, and the company is not aware of any crashes caused by the problem. The fix consists of a transmission control module (TCM) reflash.
In a separate recall, GM is repairing 51 Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD pickups from the 2015 model year in the US. In vehicles with diesel engines and dual fuel tanks, the nuts that connect the fuel pipe to each side of the transfer pump between the tanks may be improperly torqued, which could cause a fuel leak. Obviously, this could be a fire hazard. The remedy is simply tightening the hardware. According to GM spokesperson Alan Adler, there have been no fires actually caused by the potential leak. "Only 21 of the trucks are in customer possession and they can be fixed anytime because there are no parts involved. The others are being fixed at dealerships," Adler said in an email to Autoblog.

Diesel Power finds the ultimate modified oil-burner

Sat, 24 Aug 2013

For nine years, Diesel Power magazine has run the Diesel Power Challenge, this year's grindfest being "a week-long torture test that features seven events, nine trucks, 8,000 horsepower, and nearly 15,000 pound-feet of torque." The road to being crowned "the most powerful truck" starts with a dyno run, and then continues through the completion of a CDL-style obstacle course, an eighth-of-a-mile drag race while towing a 10,000-pound trailer, a quarter-mile drag race without a trailer, a fuel economy test in the mountains and finally a sled-pulling test through a 300-foot-long packed-mud pit.
What kind of trucks get into such a fight? Last year's winner, for instance - who upgraded his truck this year to prove he didn't "luck into the win" - drives a 2008 Ford F-250 Super Duty with a 6.4-liter Power Stroke V8 upgraded with a custom intake, Elite Diesel triple turbos and a two-stage nitrous system. Another competitor has a 2005 Dodge Ram 2500 powered by a 5.9-liter Cummins inline-six, upgraded with Garrett turbos, dual-stage nitrous, a seven-inch exhaust stack and twin fans built into the bed to cool the Sun Coast Omega transmission. The numbers on that truck: 1,255 horsepower, and 2,063 pound-feet of torque at the wheels. Naturally, as the image above might suggest, things don't always end well.
You'll find all five videos covering this years challenge below. A scene in the dyno video sums it all up perfectly: a competitor leaves his nitrous on too long and the crew is treated to some ominous poppings, he leans out the window, throws both hands up and shouts, "Amer'ca!"

GM able to add diesel to half-ton pickups if market demands it

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

A few years ago, the trend in half-ton pickup trucks was ultra-luxurious trims, often with the words "limited" or "platinum" tacked on after the model name. That was well and good, but we like this latest fad a lot more - diesel engines. First, Ram came to bat with a 3.0-liter, V6 turbodiesel for the 1500, then Nissan announced that the next-generation Titan would be getting an eight-cylinder Cummins diesel.
Now, word is coming in from AutoGuide that General Motors can, if it so chooses, drop a diesel engine into its light-duty trucks. The plot thickens, though, as it turns out that said diesel would be the same one Ram is using for its truck. According to AG, that engine comes from VM Motori, which GM owns a sizable chunk of. Therefore, GM can snag the 3.0-liter, V6 diesel for its trucks just as easily, if not more easily, than Ram.
If it's so easy for the Detroit-based manufacturer to access the engines, why not offer the a diesel-powered Sierra and Silverado from the start, then? According to GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson, The General doesn't seem so confident in a diesel pickup outside of its HD offerings. According to Wilkinson, the cost-benefit ratio doesn't line up for customers, thanks to both the impact on the truck's sticker price and the higher price of diesel, in general (the national average for a gallon of diesel is 43 cents more than a gallon of 87-octane unleaded).
