Downey, don't post **** like that. Ask anyone who did a SAS. Everythig works out fine on paper. As soon as you take it out, something doesn't work out the way it was supposed to. It takes awhile to pin-point all of the bugs before its problem free. We don't have Toyota's. There isn't a bolt on fix for serious mods like this. The guy did his job at the shop.

i didnt mean it like it sounded it was ment as. the places around me that i have seen do this and any other custom build the shop take the truck out and test it and everything and works everything out before the customer picks it up. i wasnt trying to make it sound the like the guy didnt do a good job or anything like that. just done differently than i have seen before thats all.

got the steering stabilizer in, and the bump stops. its a whole diferent truck. alot better handling and feels safer.
the bumps got them set so the drag link wont get closer than 1.5" from the leafs. need to get longer steering bump stop screws, as tires still hit the leafs, atleast while i get front wheel spacers.
monday il go get a panhard fited and see how that setup works .

i have no idea... havent got enough free time to chech it out. im getting already into getting a panhard mounted, need to go get some plates bended to get the panhard in line with the axle and to drop the upper mount to get it level with the drag link.
wight now i just finished cleaning the drums after sunday competiton, need to borrow wome tires to pass inspections that im going saturday. so hopefully after that next week i should be doing the panhard and see whats next

awesome truck and even more awesome build!
i did look into getting a crew cab then bringing it into the states but the amount of time and money it would have taken was not worth it for me. but i got the closest thing to it, a ST. this is what i wanted to do to the ranger
but instead i did it to my ST. again, awesome truck!
