i need some input? what's the best bang for the buck? IFS lift or SAS? How much $$$ are we looking at for an SAS?

 

depends on what u want it for. If u dont wheel that much and drive it every day then Ifs would be your best bet. under 1000 before u buy tires. all tho since u even mentioned sas leads be to believe that u r thinking about it and from everyone i have talked to if u even ever think about it u will end up sas it sooner or later . Dont put any money into ur ifs. wait, save money, cut it out and sas it. I made the mistake of dumping 1200 into my frond end with limited slip new gears and a 4 inch lift 3 years ago and now i have a straight axle sitting in my back yard waiting to go under my front end. the sas project can be done four under 1500 if u do the work yourself and buy a kit to install. Way less more maintence that ifs and much stronger. JUST MY $0.02

 

weakyota...have you had any problems with your IFS lift?

 

theres a million threads on this, search

 

do you do alot of rockcrawling? Thats the only way a sas is going to pay off for you..

 

I abused the crap out of my old IFS lift, moved it to a second rig even, and it never gave me any problems. No broken CV's with 33 Bias ply or 35 BFG AT's.

 

zero rockcrawling....maybe a little trail riding and some mud here and there but nothing too aggressive

 

Complete SAS Kit: $1099

Then you have to figure in the price of labor to install, new tires/rims possibly, driveshaft work, regearing for the new larger tires/rims, lockers, armor, etc

It is a snow ball.

 

If you have to ask, you don't need a SAS. PERIOD.

For trail riding, throw some 33x10.50 on there and call it good. If you're desperate to spend some money, gearing and lockers will get you MUCH farther than a lift/big tires ever will.
