i did an sas with a 03 rubicon dana 44 retaining the 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern. it has a Detroit Locker, 4.88 gears, Teraflex high steer knuckle, Warn manual hub conversion kit, Alloy USA tube seals, Alloy USA chromoly shafts, Sway-A-Way 10" coilovers and a custom driveshaft built by Inland Empire Driveline in Ontario, Ca. i used a 86 Forerunner steering box. i built the y-links using Ballistic joints and bushings, built the tierod, draglink and trackbar.

one of the interior shots is of the CB radio sheft i made that are in the place of the visors.

i had to modify the seat sliders to make the Beard seats work.

as for the rear bumper, i built it a couple years ago but thought id post a pic.

reworking the sliders for the seats took a whole day to finish.

thanks. but u know some redneck is gonna bash on it saying it wont hold up just because its not a dana 60 or some other type of overkill. to me, a good offroader can make it through a trail without making any body damage or break any parts. thats the true test and thats the way i was brought up as an offroader.

so if you can make a dana 30 hold up, ur the man.
