Well no keeping it hidden anymore!!!!!!

Yup thats right its happening!!!!!!!! Just picked up a set of full width D44 and D60s out of a 78 Ford F250 for the swap. I have ORD shock hoops coming thanks to KM346, picking up a manual shift center counsel of CL tomorrow morning, Okiedoak is dropping off a NP231 transfer case tomorrow afternoon, I scored a brand new astro steering box off Pirate for $85 shipped, and my good buddy Richard is picking up a set of H2 wheels for me from VA Beach, then all I need is everything else lol!!

Yeah I'll be doing exactly that! I'm going to have to have my knuckle machined and tapped for a hi steer arm but that's fine I got the set for $360!!

I've been keeping an eye on this thread to see what axles you were getting your hands on, can't wait to see it done.

Yeah changed the axles mostly cause I really wanted to go full width since I knew an sas swap existed and then this deal was just to good to be passed up! Looks like the 44 pinion is tire up but I guess that just means gears will come sooner than later.

SWEET! I was thinking that was the secret.
I've heard of a forum somewhere with a heap of info on SAS, pretty helpful guys too. Can't remember it for the life of me though...
