Not SAS, it's a 2wd not 4wd. The only real fix it to get center drop brackets (like for a ttb 4wd front), then do an alignment on it.

But then again, Raw had an idea.... SAS it and convert to 4x4.....

just google search for any of the major companies' brackets on a 4x4 lift, it will be close, then alter your lengths

It's been a long time since I've looked into lifting a 2wd(I beams), but from what I understand, they are makeing alot more, and you should be able to find some drop brackets for the i beams, or at least some people that have made their own.
There's at least one person on here that has done exactally this, but I don't remember who.
