      dude whats the trick to mounting the KC lights on your cowl, from what i can tell on mine is the cowl is welded to the rest of the body. The lights look bad ass there and was thinking about moving mine to that location

      SAS with radius arm flex

      From the pics it looks to have great flex. Does it? Is is stock bronco style or does it have a wristed radius arm? I'm doing the same swap. I was concerned about that style of front suspension and how it articulated in this application. What's your thoughts on it? Would you change it?
      Any help would be appreciated.

      I agree...the whole photobucket things stinks. I dont use them anymore.

      Im going to do SAS on my 97, but cant find any photos on the good threads that were created.

      I use cubeupload - zero compression image sharing and it is simple to use.

      For $20, you could become Elite and be able to upload pics directly, and they would be here permanently. Just a suggestion. :thumbsup:
