Body Damage is Cool
Just FYI, the steering box for the 2wd is different than the 4wd. I'm having to change mine over for my SAS.
So you know, the ride height of mine will only be a few inches taller than a stock 4wd. Using 33's will be fine (not look goofy small).

you could use a 2wd box for an SAS. however it's slightly smaller and mounts with 2 bolts rather than 3. on the upside, the pitman arm on a 2wd has less drop and allows for more leaf spring clearance.

thats good to know <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

i wonder if the pitman arms would swap over from the 2wd to the 4wd box? The arms are probably frozen on the shafts anyways, but it would be interesting to know.
