    I always thought that it was so they don't bind when running the /\ set up shocks... Because technically you aren't limiting articulation, only full droop together :confused:

    Thanks Supra for the link. I think I have a new truck to look at for doing my SAS now. I dont think mine will look like a baby being a second gen DCLB but it definitely wont be a beast haha. Thanks for the write up on the baby beast.

    Finished bed lining my 88 pickup yesterday. I took it out for a spin and was reminded that I hate the seats. I've never swapped seats before so I was wondering you guys could give me some info on how it works.

    Are there pre-fab'd seat bracket kits that come model specific with seats? Can I just buy any seat and then make mounting tabs? I'm clueless on this one.
