sas troubles

hey guys..just to give an update on the sas..i encountered a problem with spring looms and the spring being close the the frame..i know with driving and offroading im going to hear clanking...i thought i could correct the problem by setting out my drop tube 7 degrees out...but another problem came...the down tube wants to touch the coil itself i could shim it..but it wouldnt be that strong and my coils would look like.../ \ on the axle: (...so now im picking up stock jeep che. buckets and going to put those on my truck and see how well it works. kinda sucks! but i do got a bare naked ranger frame :) LOL I SHOULD DO A TTB SWAP! HA! juss playin! i'll get sum pix up tomorrow i just got done throwin parts across the shop! MADE ME SOOOOOOOOO MAD!!!

Ah how are you going to use a Jeep Cheerokee coil Bucket? They are all unibody as far as I know you will just be cutting out the fender...

my coils bow some and while driving across the dunes it rarely hit the frame.
