David Posted March 1, 2011 Author Report Posted March 1, 2011 no kits this will all be hand fabbed and I am pretty confident in my welding skills
lifted_silverado Posted March 1, 2011 Report Posted March 1, 2011 It shouldnt be to big a pain. Just fab up the eyes for the leafs. Youre right the IFS in chevys is real SOB to work with. I helped do a straight axel on a friends silverado. The leaf springs make it look mean, he did 3:10 gears with detroit lockers. Wasnt fast but it would pull. Everythings in the attic or garage since the truck was sold last year. New build should be coming soon in a dodge cummins
David Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 I think once I have all the parts it will be fairly simple, just time consuming as I will be doing most of it by myself. Here is the truck, motor its burnt pretty good, hence the v8 swap. I have got it pretty much ready to yank witch will happen fri or sat after work.
David Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 This is the one I helped with it belongs to my coworker.
Red4DrPos Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Wow, That looks awesome and mean with the boggers. Ive been wanting to do a SAS swap on my blazer. Just havent had the fund for it. You going to use coils or leafs for the front. Usually it depends on the application but IMO coils just look cleaner than leafs. Just my .02
David Posted March 2, 2011 Author Report Posted March 2, 2011 Im going to use leafs, looks meaner imo.
Benji0687 Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 Damn David...looks like you really have your work cut out for ya. I've seen your work before, I'm sure you'll do a great job.

lifted_silverado Posted March 2, 2011 Report Posted March 2, 2011 I agree front leaf springs look badass. As far as the fabtech kits go you can always check out the parts they include and add your own twist on the fabrication end. Its gonna be a tough job for one person. GL with the build im def.
