Nice pics! I'm glad dack in South Dakota we can rent car wash bays by the hour(in Mitchell at least,and if you know the manager)for $10 bucks an hour,got to love that mud!Try spraying a little veg oil all over the undercarriage it will make cleanup faster and easier.

Nice flex! I like the mudflaps you have at the top of your front fenderwell! Cool idea!

How do you have those lights under the bumper braced? Those things must take a POUNDING when you're rockin' through the mud!!

Was the SAS a kit or all custom? What kind of axle is it?

The lights are in a corner created by where the body mount brackets join the frame. There, they stay fairly protected. I've only broken one when the truck dropped though the ice on the river. Ice is pretty tough stuff!

The Sas is all custom, the front axle is a hp dana 44, and the rear is a ford 9". Both from a '79 bronco. The front uses 8" TJ coils with ford style radius arms that have been streched 18" for more flex. With carefull placement of the coil buckets, it ended up netting me a little over a foot of lift and a ton of travel! :D I'm running 5.13 gears and 38" swampers and the dana 44 holds up fine.
