Wassup,

Just finished helping a buddy of mine complete a SAS on his 87 runner and I thought I would share some pics. Made for a great weekend and some good beer drinking

GOTTA LOVE THOSE RUNNERS

 

Very nice...Gotta love plasma!

 

A few more Pics






And last but not least my little 84 runner, it is waiting for ARB lockers to come in from Marlin Crawler

 

Well I guess that SAS are not as uncommon as they used to be. I would have expected more comments.

 

Looks damn good. Nice work!

 

Ok here is a reply. Do you like white? Seriously very nice but with all that money why don't you fix your damm p/s gearbox?

Well I would fix the power steering leak but I think it gives it character.

 

Character is only good in a part until it fails, expecially in something as vital as the power steering pump.

 

powersteering pump isnt THAT vital you can still steer without it, just make sure you lugnuts dont have any character

Looks good, i love white 1st gen runners

 

very true

 

Very nice, wanna come do mine now? Seriously, was it coincidence you all got white runners or what?

 

I would say that 2 out of the three was coincidence, the 87 runner we SAS was the first then my buddy ran across the 84 runner and I bought it , it just happen to be white, my father in-law really liked them and went on a mission to find another white one. Thanks for the nice comments, and as far as the p/s is concerned I think it has already been repaired. AND NO CHARACTER IN THE LUG NUTS GOT IT

 

You make it look easy...

 

I like how it took you all of 2 days,. nice welds too.

Good lookn Runners. What kind of tire carrier do you have on the '84?

 

I made the tire carrier. The bottom bar the goes into the hitch is solid 2x2 bar and the upper support is 2 x 2 x 3/16" wall thickness and there is a solid block welded in the bottom that the hinge pins goes thru it works out real nice. I just need to get a spare 33" tire to go on it.

 

has anyone ever done a SA to IFS swap?? I wouldnt never do it, just curious.

 

MAN that is awsome 2 days thats rocks want to come out next weekend and help me do mine??? Ill buy the beer and pizza lol

 

I have a white one too, will you do mine?

 

Yeah we did it in two days. The first day was mostly spent getting it over to my house with all the related parts ie axle and SAS kit. I would say the hardest part of the job is grinding the frame clean that is all we did the rest of day one was grind grind grind, it only took a couple hours to plasma cut the IFS off. And the axle was already rebuilt so that speed up the process. Thanks for the complements.
