Solid axle swap?

Hi guys, I'm in the planning stages for a sas on my 98...its got 2 lifts, 33x12.50x15 tires and a 302 swap on it and I'm wanting to put a solid axle in the front. I've been a bodyman for 30 yrs yet don't own a mig. I would like to do coils not leafs. Love the look of lift coils..lol..any advice would be appreciated..I also should let u know this project is 99% for looks, I hardly ever go offroad

Sas on ranger

I figured I'd add that my buddy is selling me both riffs out of his jeep, he has put new ball joints, seals, n all in it and they r 373 gears. I am finding that coils will be maybe more difficult than leafs in that I'll have to cut off my shock towers and put in coil and shock towers.
