Tim is right, if your are looking to get a stock 1/2 ton up to speed, the gear swap is your cheapest option. I have not purchased a kit in a while but you can do the whole swap under $1000.

I have started a technical article on this swap. I had an almost step by step photo album on Webshots, but honestly, work keeps getting in the way to finish it.

If you get the set, I'd be happy to help where I can. Heck if you live close by, we can get together and knock it out!!

How far from Va are you?
