i been thinking of swapping out the ifs for a solid axle. does anyone have any suggestions or what has worked for yall? i have a 97 blazer 4x4 4dr. i would like to run leaf springs all around. if at all possible, manual locking hubs. keep it simple stupid is my motto. gonna run no bigger than 35s

 

I suggest start reading! There's hundreds of different combinations depending upon skill availability and finances so you just have to figure out what is going to work for you after reading build threads. I have leaves all the way around if that helps for a starting point.

 

Pretty much the norm is a Dana 44 up front

 

they do sell kits if you want to take the easy route, sky manufacturing i think is one company that does it.

i made my own brackets as my truck doesnt see the street but if i had to do it again i would just buy the kit. i think i spent like 20 hours measuring, cutting, throwing away bad designs and doing it over again til i got it right.

but i just googled s10 sfa swap and read a bunch of peoples designs and just got ideas from them

 

Just traded for one with SFA swap and LS 35's. using Toy axles
Rear disc brakes and all
