idk your mechanical ability so ill just say you do 50% of this work and the work you posted youll probably have the truck on the road for around 65-75k possibly 100,000 in repairs, replacements, tuneup work, paint and body, customizations this is if you just go balls out on everything getting it all done. not everything has to be done but most is a must on a used truck. if you can shimy on by without and overhaul for a bit if engines in ok shape you might get out around 50k

Thanks Lonestar.
I started my career as a Diesel Mechanic so I'm pretty handy with doing most of the repairs. I can do I complete brake job with my eyes closed but I don't have an air compressor or a 1 inch air gun to get the tires off !! LOL I hate that I will have to pay someone labor just because I can't get the tires off but what can I do.
