We made a bunch of progress on the SAS swap. Got the old IFS cut out and about to install the new brackets. Will add more photos as we get closer.

We used a cut off wheel for the pass side and after using about 15 wheels on it I went and bought a plasma cutter from Harbor Freight for $400 and it cut the time in half! Really worked surprisingly well. Next we will be bolting the brackets on and mounting the springs. Had to remove 2 of the bolts on the steering box to move enough to get a puller on it for the pitman arm. Other than that it has been fairly easy but a HELL of a lot of grinding!

This is awesome. Are there any locating/positioning holes or just lots of measurements for the new brackets?

The kit I am using is from Off Road Design. If you are using the stock leaf springs from 73-87 it works with your existing bolt holes for the brackets. You will have to drill a few holes with a 1/2" drill bit but other than that it is a bolt in set up. Very well built and heavy duty! Those guys at ORD are awesome!
