2wd SAS

[littleExplorer]

Is it possible to do a SAS on a 2wd without using the front diffy or is it required to go to 4x4?

 

[Robb]

What?

 

[boominXplorer]

why woud you go SAS on a 2wd anyway??? If you were 2wd something like a long travel coilover kit would interest you more i think.

You can just have an axle up there with no driveshaft or T-case but that would be retarted and worthless.

 

[Alec]

But you could use the SAS to add a manual tcase and get 4wd.

 

[littleExplorer]

isnt that conversion extremely hard to do?

 

[Premier]

Ummm.... A SAS is hard to do...

 

[littleExplorer]

i see. well i just wanted to know if it was possible, and i guess it is so thanks for the replies.

 

[Alec]

If you manage to get the SAS done, adding 4x4 to it would be relative cake. Change the tranny output, rear driveshaft, add a tcase and front shaft and cut a hole in the floor

 

[Robb]

Well, with a 2WD SAS, you wouldn't have to worry with things like caster or pinion angles...........so it wouldn't be TOO hard.

 

[littleExplorer]

do you know of anyone that has done SAS on 2wd drive and left it 2wd? or do you know where i could get some really good info?

 

[Alec]

I raise the question again:

WHY SAS WITH 2WD?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!

What is that gonna gain you? Cause it won't be ability.

 

[littleExplorer]

yea thats pretty obvious, but i just stick with the axle swap first, and then ill go to 4wd eventually after all the regearing and such

 

[bates]

hrmmm...Do you know a hidden secret that makes 2wd better than 4wd? I don't get the point of this...

 

[littleExplorer]

no. im not an off-roader since i have 2wd and im just a "poser" 4wd since i just want the lift and make it look nice. i could care less about performance. so that is the main reason i wanna do this.

 

[Nicaraguense]

You

You would have to have the diff but, there is nothing that says that you have to put a transfer case in it right away. Though you will shortly there after because if you go throug ALL THAT TROUBLE to put a SAS in it and keep it a 2WD with the SAS just for looks. There is something seriously wrong with you.

 

[GaSouthern1]

Well, why dont you just get a suspension lift on your 2wd then, you can do spindles and a BL and fenders and probably fit 36s.

 

[bates]

looks like i missed something while writing my message.

 

[Raceit]

Nope....I'm pretty sure this is the weirdest thread ever.

 

[Premier]

I disagree, I just read the whole Letter thread... At least that one had an ending
