I already had a lot of the air ride stuff that I pulled off the jimmy. I bought the four link and tapered bags for the rear. As far as labor I get billed for a week at a time and it is not broken down as to what each hour is for. So basically I can't put a specific dollar amount on it.

The engine is a 95 and only had a few miles on it when I got it in 96. I don't think it has more than 7 or 8,000 miles on it right now. The wireing harness from the car was used and modified so it was a PITA. To do it again I would just buy a harness made for the swap.

Here is some of the recent work on the Jimmy. The floors had to have some massageing due to the new frame. Nothing will hang below the frame rail either.

I bet that cost a pretty penny. I did not even know that a converion harnass is avaliable for it, thats cool.

Looks like some good craftsmanship on the Jimmy.
