I bought some stuff today and started the parts collection process for the SAS.

Rebuilt axle with new bearings & seals....just need paint and shafts. I'm probably going to buy the Longfield's from the guy that I bought this stuff from.



I also bought 2 diffs with Yukon 5.29's with Aussie's in both already setup. Still need to be broken in.





I'm also going to pick dual cases already setup on Wednesday this upcoming week.

I think I decided to do the TG 3" kit for the front and 4" for the rear. It's most likely going to happen over the winter.

Your name is on them. I can't wait to get all this work done, but like everything I do, it's going to be slow...lol I am almost certain though it will be done by mid February.

Woo hoo! I can't wait to get those drums and headrests installed!





LOL...my dual case setup and crossmember with skid plate.

My spending spree will be paused for a while now...lol I may pick up some odds and ends here and there, but no more big ones for a while....my bank account can't take anymore for now.

I cleaned up the axle housing and put a coat of paint on it.



I think I'm going to paint the knuckles as well.

Can't wait to get this under my 4Runner!

Nothing yet.....about to order my IFS Eliminator Kit, Rear Leaf Swap, Drive Shaft Kit, Frame Reinforcement Plates, Dirty 30's or Longfields, debating about Chromo hub gears, V6 calipers, and some other odds and ends like fluids, gaskets & seals etc. I finally have the money together to be able to buy everything. I will have it ordered by the end of February because I want to take advantage of the Wabbit & his free shipping sale that he is running.

Yes they are! Sure make the stock ones on my 92 PU seem very small and weak. Looking forward to getting the rest of my stuff and getting it all installed. Not looking forward to all the work involved though, but I'm sure the finished product will be worth it.

Woo hoo! Dirty 30's ordered Friday and just ordered my SAS kit from the Wabbit! Can't wait to get started on it! I'm thinking the end of April to early May is when it's going to happen. Hopefully, I'll be ready to go by the EC4J in June for a shakedown run! I'm hoping to have enough $$ to get a set of 35's by then too, but if I don't, I'll have to stay with the 33's until then. They are probably going to look small on the rig when the SAS and leaf swap are done!

Can't wait to and and

All the work will be done at Pete's place so that isn't too far from you so once we get started, you'll be able to grab them there if you end up buying them.

The rest of my goodies, (Dirty 30's & IFS Eliminator Kit) will be here Monday according to the tracking number. New calipers will be in tomorrow and pads should be Friday. I'll just need to get some odds and ends like gaskets and supplies and I'm ready to go!

Anticipation is killing me!

It's been a while since I updated and I have received all my parts. I'm just waiting for my installer to finish a project of his own to get started. Either way, it's going to be after the Jamboree at Rausch, even if he's ready before then.

In the mean time, I got another set of wheels. It's in the form of a 2013 Scion FR-S.

Here's some pics & a video of it arriving at my dealership:
