I never did figure out how much lift I could expect over my current setup putting in a stock d44 setup. I know with a stock ttb setup I could expect it to sit about identical to now and I would expect the sas to leave it higher than that, possibly high enough to fit 35s.

You will have to go at least 6" to clear a D44SA. Any lower and the diff will hit the TTB crossmember. Also DO NOT cut the crossmember to clear anything. Doing so will weaken it and cause it to crack later on. Jeffs Bronco Graveyard sells a track bar for an SAS that bolts to the TTB crossmember so you won't have to cut it to clear.

I knew it would be taller, it's just hard to say because most people end up doing an additional lift on top of that and have to do shackle flips and taller leaves and blocks out back. I'm just wondering ahead of time so I'll know what is going to take to bring the back up to match, probably an add a leaf and a 2" block would be more than adequate.

There is no need to replace the TTB setup and you need the truck ready for the winter, get a TTB, which works just great, and if you decide to plan for next year, just a suggestion, did you check my other thread?.

Do the 2x4 and 4x4 radius arms and tie rods interchange? I know there's a 90 f150 at the junk yard with a complete ttb setup as well as the tranny and everything else. I need to know what all too grab when I go to pick it apart.

Nice link. Definitely looks like stuff I can handle. I'm hoping I can grab this stuff and get it all together pretty quickly. It should be pretty easy add long as I have everything there and ready to go.
