[00whxploder]

Okay so I need help from the SAS guys on here.

I have found a wagoner with the complete front end at my buddies junk yard.He is letting me get the LPD44 and leafs from it for $150.
I will be putting it on leafs so the stock wagon spring will hold me up...

I will be running Reid Racing Heavy Duty Flat Top Knuckle.

I will be cheating by using Sky Manufacturing Chevy S-10 Solid Axle Hanger Kit which can be modded if need be.https://www.4wdfactory.com/store/products.php?product=Chevy-S%252d10-Solid-Axle-Hanger-Kit

I have read a lot of the threads but when it all comes down I need the easiest steering box set-up. Which way should I go?

Will I have to modify the drive shaft and should I get the drive shaft out of the wagon at the same time.

As for the rear will the axle out of a 93 f150 be the same length.

Any Advice will be greatly appreciated.

For the Sky Man kit you can get it cheaper through them directly, as far as I can tell there's zero shipping (don't quote me though) LOL.

For the steering box, most SAS's I've read about use a 1st Gen box.

I'd have a driveline/ spring shop make you a front driveshaft.

You can use 2" spacer for the rear and have the rear the same width as the front. Check out Chad's 2002 Sport Trac SAS build thread.

Best of luck with the build man, I'll be watching closely since I will be doing this within the next 2.5 years.
