My Reg. Cab SAS

Hey everyone, I have a 1995 Pickup Regular cab 22re 5 speed. Just ordered my SAS kit from Brian at WabFab with 4" springs. I already have a 3 inch body lift and the plans are for now is to keep the body lift with the 4" spring setup. I'll be running 5.29s with most likely a detroit rear and open front on 36x12.50s. In the rear I plan to run chevy 63's and go from there as far as if I need more lift or blocks in the rear later. What do you all think as far as the setup goes thus far? This thread will be turning into my SAS thread as soon as I start cleaning up my axle and get my parts from WabFab. I already have a custom rear bumper and will be making a custom front bumper with a winch. Most likely a Trail gear style stinger/tube bumper. I am currently a Welder/Fabricator for a Metal/fab shop here in Milwaukee and going to school full time to get my technical degree in Metal Fab/Welding. So I do have some awesome benefits like using school's and works tools and steel. I will post pictures of my Rig Pre SAS and obviously build Pics. Thanks for lookin!

Looks familiar...

I SAS'd my 1995 (3. SLOW) couple of months ago. Wanted to retain a lower stance. Good luck with the SAS, take your time, and enjoy!

Subscribed... we're in the same boat now what do you guys think about doing a RUF instead of using the springs given in the SAS kit? Which would ride/flex better? Because I also plan on putting chevys in the rear.
