Bout the only thing you'd gain there is a steering box. I don't think i'd care for the diesel offroad but that's me.
Buy vs. Build?
BUILD!!!

I wont be able to build is my only thing bc i will be in Iraq while the truck is getting done and wont see anything of it till i get home. Its going to be my christmas present to myself haha. I will have someone drive it somewhere for it to be built.
Also so heres the plan then its gonna be an SAS that will fit up too 42s. Leaf springs in the rear. Four link conversion with Fox coilovers up front shocks and foxs in the rear.
Now questions are after looking at that other thread of the guy who also did an SAS is that like the same set up that i keep talking about? Not too sure what exactly his is.

Besides doing the SAS what are some other things i do need or will have to upgrade on the truck? Bc i saw that he upgraded his t-case. Do i need too? will it wear faster if i dont? What about transmission? Would like to know exactly everything that i will have to buy or get too get this SAS done.
