Check Pirate4x4 or Marlin crawler forums sections for people in your area that has done an SAS. Some cut everything off and others take the time to unbolt it, even the ones that cut the top A-arms off the rest should be in good shape. Also check the local wrecking yards, you could probably find everything that that you need there, at far less than dealer prices. I would think that you should be able to get all of the pieces you used for less than the dealer price for just the A-arm. Used cv axles sell for about $20-30, the upper A-arms should be free-from a private party to about $100 from a wrecking yard, etc. I would buy new ball joints, tie rod ends, pitman and idler arms over installing used, unless they are comming off an SAS'd rig and don't have that many miles on them.


More than tread lightly. Leave it like you were never there, nor anyone else.
