Default A little late

Ok so I signed up for an account about exactly a year ago. Just never got around to saying what's up to the rest of you.

This is my truck (sorry not offically an F150). It has a custom 15" Lift on 42's. It had 2.5 x 12 Fox dual rate coilovers in front with a secondary 2.0 shock. Extended 4 link in rear with coils, 2.5x12 Fox smoothbodies in the rear.



The truck is now gutted and i'm constructing a roll cage...

I'm assuming SAS = straight axle swap. And NO this truck did not have a straight axle in the front. Truck originally had a 13" custom kit built by Custom Motorsports in Riverside, CA. It was 10" of suspension and 3" of body lift. Basically consisted of combining a fabtech lift kit and RCD lift kit combined. And used modified spindles to achieve the extra lift. I later took it to a fab shop in Whittier, CA called R&B offroad. They cut the coil bucket off the frame, modified the engine cage, installed the 12" coilovers, and made new upper control arms that used a 1" uniball. The truck was designed great for around town and a little dirt. But I kept trying to push the limit on the truck and began breaking stuff while out in the desert. That is why the truck is now torn apart and being rebuilt.

Started the cage work this weekend...

Hopefully you will be doing a SAS though? I would think so since you seems to push it to it's limits.
