Any company making SAS kits yet?

So all the Toyota fan boys chirp about how awesome their tacos or 4runners are, but its mostly because they can order an SAS kit online and find a scrap axel and easily fab up their rig.
Anyone here if a company out there is going to make SAS kits or something to replace the retarded t-bar IFS fronts on our trucks, and give us an option other than the $2000 superlift? Im at the point if it wasn't for the fenders and cutting holes in the bed I would shell out the coin for the Dixon bros long travel, if only for a lift that doesn't require lots of custom fab.

Lots of threads documenting it though. Its not impossibly hard.

I solved my problem by buying a wj grand Cherokee that comes with a solid axel from the factory. Too bad the sixty million billion rangers out there aren't supported by aftermarket companies. Lots of potential in the platform except the torsion bars up front.

Even if an SAS kit come out, people would still complain. There is no 1 perfect setup for everyone.

The problem with a kit is you'd still have to deal with the front crossmember, since it's not bolted on the kit would either have to work around it, or require you to cut it off.
