SteveO's SAS
 

Yup, another SAS. However, becuase I wanted to make my life very difficult, I'm doing a Coil-over sas, with 14" SAWs.

Here are some teaser pics or you can check out my website for more.

Working on this stuff when I can, such as after work and weekends is really tough. However, when it all gets done, it'll be a nice ride.

:great:
Nice pics Steve! Are you fabbing up the 4 link or is that something that you have bought? You got me interested in this as I am planning on a SAS in the next year or so and this has crossed my mind. Keep the pics and updates coming. :bigok:

I'm fabbing the entire thing. :saw:

:laugh:
Ok. ok, I was just curios. Cant wait to see the final result.

i am so glad someone is doing coil over. This will be sweet.

Nice, I'm anxious to see your setup. Keep us posted.

I agree...all these leaf spring SAS's and I'm interested to see how this one comes along! I've saw the flex of a 4 link rear....could only imagine the front too!

:woo: :woo: :woo:

Godspeed SteveO!

:guitar:

Very very good idea. Now I'll have one to use as a template when I get to do mine. I'm pretty sure that it'll kick all of those leaf spring SAS'd rigs butts. :rockon: :bigok:

A good idea, yes, I presume so. I know it'll ride nice. A template, well, I dunno, I'll get all the measurements I can and pass them along so you all can create your own torture sessions.

Kicking leaf spring's butt......well, if I don't flop over with the very soft suspension, I suppose so.

I'll tell ya what. This take a tremendous amount of thought and design. Being that its a 4Runner, there are several different deals that have to be worked out. Being that its a 3 link with an automatic, some items have to be moved, and just plain old fabbing skills come into play here.

Needless to say, its a lot of work. :welder:

How'd it go yesterday, Steve?

still missing parts from certain business who have me bentup about it. :pop:

I'm going to see about shipping back the too tall coils and see if I can get smaller ones. The panhard bar will go in today......

still trying to put it all together......

:lol:

holy crap!

Now SteveO has the sweetest 3rd gen!

Your bumper is sweeet! And the red Hoola hoop things on the front are lookin pretty dang sexy as well.

Red!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :barf:

As for the actual work... :bowdown: :bowdown: :bowdown:

Looks great Steve.

Not sure about leaves fighting links, but I know this has to be a well thought out and well implemented plan. Looking forward to seeing it.

Why not put the uppe link on the diff?

Awesome! We need more pics!

how much are you going to lower it?
