Yomie's SAS....Again

I've finally been able to start to gathering up parts for a 44. I'm going to be using a HPD44 running it full width, with ford outers. Just a warning, this might take some time.

In the mean time, i took off the 3" BL, i cut up the front bumper, cut my front fender openings Jefe style, cut off the pieces behind the rear wheels, made the rear frenderwells a little bit larger, and completely removed the rear bumper to start fabbing one up.

In the end i still only plan on running a 36-37" tire. I will still be leafs. I will update this thread as i make more progress. So to start, no more body lift!!!!!!

He was just looking at your thread actually, and decided to go with the 5.5 rock-crawler coils.

Yeap :D I actually used the t-case skid plate holes to bolt the RA mounts in. Well after I drilled them out a bit. ;)


Glad to hear he's going with the 5.5's :thumbsup:

It's going to be wicked Reggie. I can't wait to see it when it's done. And when I get my truck done, we should all go to that place that's like 2 hours from yall.

By that time I'll probably be in california. I'm booked labor wise until then. I have absolutely no free-time.
 






I ment like after you get back Jey, cuz I'll be needing to get my tranny, tcase, etc.
