So when this is all done, what will it take for you to build a similar set-up for the rest of us (well at least me :twisted: )?

More mods planned than money.

Tell you the truth, I have no idea what I am going to do. I may sell the lift as a kit, this will be fairly expensive (in the range of around $2500). I may look for a job at Fab Tech or Superlift, and bring it along with me :lol: or I may for those special few that live in driving distance of the Jeep Tabernacle (my garage) give them a parts list, tell them go out and buy, and when they are done collecting like animals, come over and we we'll install them (at a small fee of course!).

As most of the lift companies will tell you, it takes a lot of time and capital to lanch a new lift, and my wife is really starting to get mad at me with all the time and money I have dumped in both the KJ and Jeepin By Al (part stocking-which isn't much, and the initial costs for the a-arms, and long hours I hide from her in the garage :shock: did I just type that? :lol: So not to cry "poor mouth" I don't have the resources to mass produce a good quality lift.

So when its done and proven itself at Moab, I will decide than whether I will "sell" the lift, or just give out the plans and parts list so all in the lost KJ land build their own.

Sell them to a company and get profit sharing for each lift sale....say 20% perhaps.....LOL!

I hope you raise your prices from last time Al. I dont think you'll be in good graces with the wife lifting KJ's for a bag of bagles. :lol:
