3rd Gen SAS & Leaf Conversion Done
I have just about finished up my SAS. I am getting some bump steer I think because it is a little too high. I think I'm going to switch the front springs to drop it about 3". Here are some pics. I also need to find a place to flex it out better.
Rancho 44044 Front
Chevy 63's Rear
37x12.50 MTR
The pics aren't showing up. Here's a linkPics

I took it to an alignment shop and everything is good.
Left 5.40 caster
Right 5.43 caster
And on the Dana 44 you can't adjust camber.
After I get it a little lower I should be at about 4 deg caster.

I also had all the parts fabed up and axle built before I started, making the process much quicker.

Looks good, makes my truck look like a low rider though 
The 4Runner drives great, rides smooth, and looks like it came from the factory with the leaf springs. He did a great job on the swap and should be run to take out and test on some real rocks.

No one in my family can even get in mine w/o a boost!

I wish I could have seen him trying to get in. He's in pretty good shape and adventerous, he went sky diving for his 70th birthday a couple of years ago. I think he enjoyed driving it more than I thought he would. He helped out every day with the swap I figured the least I could do is let him drive it.

It would be awesome if you had gotten some pics of him driving it!
Looks good. Looks real good.
