oooo a SAS durango with some 1 tons! That would be sweet.

 

One of my friends brothers has a tc sports package and its pretty nice... It has short shifters in and is a blast to drive the only mods it has on it visual wise is the carbn fiber hood and spoiler but it is fun

 

what is an SAS??

 

Solid Axle Swap, only problem is I'd have to deal with a divorce if I indulged in it. It is about $5k at the cheapest. I met a guy running around here with one and he got very lucky to find it for the price he did. Cost him $10k with 60k miles on it. mine was $10.5k with 30k miles and that was stock. The thing has a total of about 13" of lift after you add everything up and the only thing he really has to do to it to make it a real monster is get some lockers. I can't wait to get my D's fan fixed so I can give him a call and follow him around a little and see that thing in action. I saw him the other day cruising around but I didn't have time to say hi. I tried to take a picture with my cell but it didn't save. [:@]

 

Well meangreen, if you ever decide to do a SAS on the durango check out www.pirate4x4.com guys on there are selling built axles all the time for good prices. If you do a few months of research on 4wheeling forums before doing it you will see if you can weld they are actually pretty easy to do and you can make alot of the parts at home with steel tubing and steel plates. I have helped on 4 straight axle swaps. It looks damn intimidating at first but it's really not that bad.

 

A solid axle for the front would do away with the Torsion bars....I must have this. Be able to get some lift outta the front end and make a more potent off road vehicle.

 

That's exact;y the point. Much more efficient off road than the IFS. If you decide to do this though it will take some serious cutting and welding.

 

Yeah I never learned how to weld unfortunately and don't want to learn on the D. If you feel like heading out here and doing it that would be cool though.

 

I'm currently learning to weld, but I don't have the extra cash flying around to afford a SAS. I would love to do it ASAP, but pretty sure it would have to wait till I graduate, in 2.5 "short" years.

 

Deerang and mean green, start posting over on pirate4x4 and learn some stuff, you will learn alot over there.
