Solid Axle Swaps

[NAST96]

Research, research, research... Read as many build threads as you can, as many tech articles as you can stand, and threads that cover steering, brakes, and the geometry of SAS. Your most valuable tool in this project is your internet connection, its also the cheapest part of the project.

Agreed^^

I probably researched for over a year while in college. gathered parts when i could along the way. still researching and discovering different little tips and ideas along the way.
good luck with the research and build!

I'm running a hp44 with 3 inch bracket's and 4 inch springs. I also moved the axle an inch forward with a zero rate. Note the zero rate adds 1 icnh lift also.
