boble86's sas and other mods

[boble86]

Alright guys i started off with the 5.5 superlift and i ended up bracking a bracket. So i decided its time for a sas. i havent really done that much with the axle sense i dont have one yet lol. i have ordered my 5.5 rock crawler springs from wildhorse4x4.well sense i dont have like any of my axle parts in i decides to do something else to give me something to do. so we cut the back of the roof off. Here are the pics.

What do you plan on doing as far as a tailgate is concerned? This looks like the makings of a very sweet project.

 

[boble86]

we cant decide if were just gonna weld it in place than sheet metal or fiberglass all the cracks, or were going to see if we can make it open like a truck. what do u think.

It does look like Dejello's rig and Mine. Well, I am missing alot more sheetmetal. Looks great.

I think trying to get it so it opens like a truck would be much better.

Yeah I think that would be much more functional. Looks like you have a great project on your hand. Hopefully it'll come out looking great. Good luck on it.
