Took my 1st gen to Miller Jeep trail over the weekend. I finished the trail without a hiccup, but the though of an CV breaking in some of the tougher sections made me realize that i need to SAS it. I also want to put 35" tires and I know the IFS will not handle it. I don't have the equipment or the time to do it myself so I was wondering if you guys know any shops that will do the installation and approx how much $$ will it run. Called few places but they had no idea what i was talking about. I appreciate any help.

 

IFS can and will handle 35" tires. I wouldn't wheel it hard. now, dont get me wrong, theres people on this forum that wheel the piss out of their truck with IFS and 35s. but I personally wouldn't.

Now, as far as an SAS goes. Would you want it linked, or leafed? would you be supplying the axle and kit? for a shop to do a proper SAS would be somewhere around the 2,500-3,000 range in labor. ( i've called around here in nor cal just for gigs )

 

whoa, $2500 to $3000 just for installation? Little higher than what i was expecting. Yes I will supply everything that they need. SAS kit, axle, etc... If it's going to be $2500+ to install, plus $1500 for the kit and the axle and probably another $500 for other stuff, I'm better off selling mine and getting either an 85 or one that has been converted already.

 

SAS with matching rear install, lift kits only nothing extra
$1600 is what I charge for folks who buy parts from me

:wabbit2:

 

Call yotamasters in Corona.

 

That's more in line of what I was expecting. Yotamasters is going to get back to me

 

curious to see what solutions present themselves here.
i have a 94 and everything just about ready minus Fr/Rr Eleockers setup and housings mod'd.... and would like to get the install going if anyone can help me. west lost angels here. the estimates i am getting are WAY outta my budget.
also got a yotamasters quote, but at $4500. there is also toyota land cruisers(tlc4x4) in the valley but they specialize in cruisers, but are all yota. jay meyers is a cool guy over there.

 

I second this. The guys at Yotamasters know what they're doing. http://www.yotamasters.com/

 

So it looks as if a team of traveling techs would do the community some greatly needed lost angels assistance. What would be cool: 6 or 8 guys around l.a. who could meet up with yotatechers n marliners and help them out with installs, fabbing, mechanical n tear downs. Service/assistance for goods(beer, food, parts, help on their projects etc...) or perhaps they'd have an hourly rate affordable by many of us and it'd be semi-negotiable and or whatever . I am in the 'help needed' camp, however I'd be down to help out anyone not too far but not as skilled as much of the talent seen here on the boards.

So it seems a team or traveling techs
