YOu said you were doing an SAS and it takes 15hrs tops with your crew.

Then in the next post you say you're not doing an sas because you don't like them

Which one is it then?

haha, I don't see anywhere that I stated i am doing a SAS swap, but I will be doing a lot of work. but until than , you folks can keep on wishing for pics, I will get them up when i can and when the project is over.

p.s oh yea there are a few NorCal guys that know what i AM DOING, THIS RANGER WILL NOT LOOK THE SAME AFTER THIS, THE EXTERIOR NOR THE INTERIOR, KEEP THINKING WHAT YOU WANT, but you will see, since now i HAVE full sponsorship

This kid sounds like a moron, and I highly doubt he knows the difference between a SFA and IFS.
