susp for 8k (or 7,997.97 to be exact)
front diff cover mount for stab. for (400)
figure in $1600 for other accessories and then 5k for tires and wheels

and theres your show truck for 35k
I'd throw a tranny somewhere in that equation, these 48RE can't handle that much which is what really suprises me about that Go Fast truck or whatever it was called, cause mine doesn't have a crazy amount of power or near the lift that alot of these trucks have and i don't use it hard and stuff is already starting to go bad at 24k on the odometer. maintenance is key to these trucks stock but jacked to the sky and power adders they start to fall apart. I've read your posts and know you're young, so am I but if you have it heavily modified kiss a warranty bye bye and get ready for more than you bargained for as far as parts and maintenance goes. oh and a fully built Goerend tranny isn't cheap but it's worth every penny IMO
