SAS'd Flareside.

hey guys. its been a while since i last posted on here but i thought i would share with yall the ol truck....last time yall saw it, it had a leveling kit, and 31's...

in the time ive been gone i have been gathering parts, building axles, and tearing ***** up! here are a couple pics of the truck, before, during the swap, and the finished product. there are still a couple odds and ends i got to finish up, like get degree'd axle wedges to correct the pinion angle for the rear, get even longer front brake lines, as the ones on the front are too short and dont allow the suspension to flex at full potential, short of ripping them off! but im done talking and will let the pics do it for me..

How about an "after" picture from the same angle/position as the first picture of your "before" just for comparision's sake. Did the ride height change at all?

Yeah, I thought there had to be a lift involved to get the SAS under an F150, but I figured I'd ask since you hadn't mentioned anything specific. Looks great though!
