I can get it done for $8,500. BUT WHAT I REALLY WANT WOULD COST ME $11,000.

Bummer on being broke.
But as I see it. You have a choice.. Either sell the jeep, or sell the wife.. I might be interested....

well, for what i'd like to do, assuming I stay happy with a 3'' lift and 35s (unlikely) I will be in for 17000. I really want the hemi...even if I do it myself, which I intend to, that alone is like 10,000...honestly I will easily have more than 22 grand in it as soon as I have that kinda money, which unfortunatly won't be soon unless i win the lotto
