I can see her under parts in that pic. I think I just messed my key board. She's so tall and slim, with nice shoes. What a dream... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

There isn't a bolt in sas swap kit available, you have to remove all the front suspension & torch off all brackets and build from scratch.
Why go around? When You can go over!

Hey I've got some axles for sale... Cheap. They are corporate 10 bolt's with 8.5" ring gear. I've seen ring and pinion sets up to 5.57 ratio... not suer what kind of driving you are looking to do but they'd be great for a light rock crawler. if you are driving it on the street you'll probably have to put some kind of fender flare on it!

[quote] ![[Linked Image]](http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj258/fledgling666/1157582429_dsc08233.jpg) is there any way you could get some closer pics of the 4 link mounts, as well as the steering? Im seriously starting to consider doing a sas. Just would like to see how you mounted yours. thanks! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Body Damage is Cool

He is using portal axles, the center line of the axle is higher than the center line of the hub. They give you extra ground clearance plus a gear reduction at the hub. If you look at Unimogs they have portal axles and there is a company here in the U.S. that builds portal 9" axles but I can't remember who. They are expensive though. That guys project is cool though.
