SAS on a NBS 1500
#1
Got bored and wanted to do something different.
SAS Requirements:
NP241 Transfer Case
Ford Axles (73-79 F250)
-Dana 44 HD Front
-Dana 60 Rear
Cross Over Steering Setup
Panhard Bar
If leaf sprung:
52'' rear leafs from a 73-87 Chevy 1/2 ton (Heavy Duty)
Leaf spring bracketry kit.
-Only one company makes a 99-07 1500 kit; Offroad Direct. DO NOT USE THEM!!!! They are notorious for stiffing people. I personallay used a SKY kit for teh 88-98 1500's and modified
If Coilover:
Lot of 2'' DOM 1/4 wall
Heims or Johny Joints
Bracketry
-Barnes4WD, Ballistic Fab, Ruff Stuff
Coilovers
I did the leaf spring conversion first but i wanted something different when I got done.




Then I pulled back into the garage and started this.




And got these just before the weekend. Will get on soon enough.

And done. Well, almost. Took for a test drive hit 45 but steering is off a bit. Need to get this thing squared up with the ''lasers''
Need to get E-brake hooked up and order hubs. Or i could leave the cable hanging.
