    not really sure where your going with that statement.

    but if it can be better, and you have the money to do it, why not?

    this is pretty much our feelings on the matter, and it is much easier to retain and maintain 4 wheel drive on the SA. The truck is already extremely competitive as it is.

    thats badass! and i didnt mean it like that, i meant that IFS do better in the open desert. sure a properly built truck with a solid axle can still kick ass though

    Matt has the right idea! and the rear end on ours is far more dialed. Deaver Leafs, custom shackles and Fox 4.4 5 tube Bypasses :cool:

    Ho-Jo FTW! You have a cool truck!

    Ya I've thought about it.....But I've already purchased bedsides with the fuel filler cut out.... Plus if the option is there is still maintain OEM style I'm all for that. Let me know if anyone comes up with a part number or an application that works. I've heard of the scenario but could never find any literature on it.
