Jomentum · 08-04-2007, 08:49 AM

Allright, the time has come, after DESTRoying everything IFS ,it's time to start the SAS

EDIT: Continuos thread ,My T100 buildup......................................
Here's what I started with:

A little lift/wheels& tires

1St thing that helped was to BoB the bed 10"

As of 12-8-07:

TEJASYOTA · 08-04-2007, 08:57 AM

COOL! Are you going to sell any of the scraps (sellable that is...) I bet there are some guys here that would buy it.

ben90 · 08-04-2007, 12:09 PM

i guess you'll be one of the few out there with a SAS T-100.

Haven't seen one in the SAS folder yet, but i pass that info to the repost police

so, what are the figures here? 3 link? what axle?

Jomentum · 08-04-2007, 01:56 PM

ThE iFs was 2nd gen truck style
It has 1-1/2" 4crawler balljoint spacers
alll new upper & lower balljoints
new complete tie rods
recall replaced steering relay rod
good cv axles Just need new inner boots
I was suprised how strong the axles were
The front diff is toothless but the carrier and case are fine
and 3 pucks of diff drop spacers

anyone interested..let me know

The axle swap will be a dana 44/chevy 10 bolt, right diff from an 85 chevy K5 blazer
with 2.5" lift leaf springs
nothing wild....just gonna build strong and durable
I still want it to be a dd.

ToyotaT1 · 08-04-2007, 02:21 PM

i may be interested in your 4crawler spacers...you know if theyd work with a 2wd setup

Jomentum · 08-04-2007, 04:21 PM

wHAT Kind of vehicle?

ToyotaT1 · 08-04-2007, 05:39 PM

95 toyota t100

Jomentum · 08-04-2007, 06:04 PM

Sorry, not the 2wd t100
www.4crawler.com
www.4crawler.comdoes make the bj spacers for the 2wd

ToyotaT1 · 08-04-2007, 07:48 PM

i figured i was just hopin i could save some

and see if i couldnt make yours work but i guess i should just get some new ones...howd you like yours by the way?

Jomentum · 08-05-2007, 12:47 PM

It had good ride, great flex...it just tore up the Idler arm(s)= (bent)
the only drawback to that style Ifs,
and it looked crazy when going over bumps when driving on the road
You have rack-n-pinion steer so you wont have that issue..
It was great for light trail running and worked for what it was.

I used a tundra add-a-leaf for the rear and trimmed about 4" from the front part of the spring

If you need help on the lift/anything , give me a pm
long travel and a bobbed bed makes a Fun ride out of a T100

Jomentum · 08-08-2007, 08:09 AM

Dana 44/10 bolt front axle housing (85 k5 blazer)
I'm going with 47" front springs with 2.5" lift,
and using the Reciever hitch for the front spring hangers..
It will retain the hitch for a winch/recovery point

4:56 gears front and rear with open front (for now)
and the Richmond locker rear.
..gears will be here next week sometime

I'm hoping to get spring mounts fabbed up and installed

I've used my $1000.00 mad money for know and need to sell the Ifs stuff
and other things to further fund the SAS

Interex · 08-11-2007, 11:30 AM

You ain't kiddin'. I boxed up my garage sale early. Going to just dump the stuff off at a donation place. Getting ready to leave my place and head up to that side of town.

Jomentum · 08-13-2007, 11:02 AM

I'm gonna keep searching for a Crossover right steering knuckle
there is no escaping the heat right now, so I will surf the net to find the knuckle..

Anyone with any link to a "crossover" steering right knuckle
Lemme know

i still have'nt reached my "credit Limit"

on the K/P

I wanna have The front axle "rolling" ready before I cut the IFS and figure out what I might have forgot

I'm shooting to have it done Sept. 1st

onelastcast · 08-13-2007, 11:37 AM

Joe, give Marlin Crawler a call; if they can't help you I'm sure they will point you in the right direction.

Edit: PMed you with several links where I found some.

GL!
Jose

Jomentum · 08-13-2007, 10:29 PM

I figured once I got out of the heat..I'd come back to my senses

I'm assuming you're just gonna buy the passenger side knuckle as that is all you need. Here is a set I found on eBay that has the hi-steer arms included...
