Would it be fine to SAS on my 93 pick up ?
It's a v6, rear comes with 4.88 gears already.
Spoke with the local guys whom fab , and says doing so on an auto would be find ?


So to SAS on an auto or not ?

Swapping to an manual is a last resort.

 

Not sure what the transmission has to do with a new front axle......?

 

Yeah I know it doesn't have too. But trying get some feed back from any owners of SAS auto pickup or runners.

 

Everyone knows automatic rules. All the cool guys ditch the manual for an auto. It's the new trend. All the cooler guys are keeping the IFS too, or wishing they could ditch the solid axle for an IFS setup.

 

Again, are you asking if it's cool to wheel with a auto or a manual? Transmissions have nothing to do with converting to a SA. Except possibly the front driveshaft length.

 

True I should have started with I have an auto with a solid axle, it works fine.

 

Thanks ! That's what I'm looking to hear.


Now SAS on fellas !

 

But............................. I want to build an IFS setup for it, bwaaahaaahaaa. Because I'm crazy that way.

 

Technically it's what you were looking to see......not that your original question was a question...

 

Touche'

 

Solid axle, found $400 .

Good deal ?

 

Hope it comes with errything for that price......

 

From my seller.

Yota Barn
They go for $400 hub to hub complete (diff, knuckles, locking hubs...) I have a few to pick from.

I plan on rebuilding em ,& swap if what ever gear it may have .

 

I paid $250

 

Mine was free. Well I traded a dead cherokee for a burned up . Saved the axle.

 

Sorry. But for $400 . I think that's a great deal for someone living in Alaska. Which parts are pita to find.
O

 

True, true

 

The only thing different between an auto and a manual when SASing is that the auto tranny has a cooler right where the passenger shackle hole needs to be drilled through the frame. You will have to either relocate it or bypass it. Other than that no reason it can't be done That's what I will be dealing with my when SASing my Runner.

 

i spent 4 years at Ft. Rich, $400 is a good deal...
