Anyone know a place that will SAS my truck?

I live in San Jose, CA and was wondering if anyone knows of a place that will do a SAS on my truck (86 4runner). I would love to do it myself but do not have the know how that would probably be required to do it myself. I am trying to decide wether i should buy an 85 or older truck or just try to get mine SAS'd. What do you guys think would be cheaper? thanks -aaron

Have you even taken it out (offroad) yet? Just asking, because if you're a noob at wheeling, the IFS is better to learn with than just having a solid axle right out of the box. With IFS you're forced to pick better lines and use skill to compensate for the lack of articulation. Plus, what if you lose interest, at least you didn't spend alot of cash on an SASing your truck.
Personally, I'm going to get a second trail rig (solid axle) when possible, and still use my truck for other light trails and fast desert trails.
