88 GMC Trail/DD Rig

Solid94, I don't wanna make any premature promises seeing that bad luck is my only luck but absolutely. Come hell or high water this ***** is gettin done

Sounds good! I'm really liking the progress I've seen with you build. Check out www.wfoconcepts.com. They have a ton of parts to help with the steering for the SAS.

Thanks man. Never heard of WFO. I pretty much ordered absolutely everything through ORD already. Seen a lot of their stuff in action at various W.E.Rock and KOH events at Rausch Creek and seen the abuse their stuff can take so I figured why not.

They put together this beast for Peterson's Ultimate Adventure this year. Kinda what I'm aiming for except I'm gonna try to keep the bed for a while and I'm on an EMS budget...

Yea ORD makes some good stuff. I believe they just came out with their SAS kit with in the last year. I want to do their shackle flip kit soon for articulation. Dirtyhick turned me onto WFO and I love the work Trevor and his crew does and a plus side to me is that it's only a 2 hour drive from my house to their shop. So what size tires, size lift, and gears are you shooting for?

Original plan was 4 link, 40s and a low COG but yet again horrible luck and an EMS budget won that battle. Kinda copying the UA rig which is 6" total suspension, trimming and 40s. Chris from ORD gave me the low down on the rig when I asked for more specs. The front is 3" in the hangers, 3" 47" leafs. Rear is a 6" shackle in the stock configuration with 6" 64" springs if I can recall. Keeps things nice and low and offers more droop than up travel. Gears I'm leaning towards 5.13s.
