Sas f150 rebuild

Sick of seeing my truck on jack stands. Time to get rolling again. Dodge D60's are long gone, 46's are long gone.

THE PLAN

Axles
Ford D60 King Pin front 5.13's
Sterlin 10.25 5.13's

Steering
Reid Racing High Steer
Crossover steering
Hydro assist, eventually

Tires/wheels
19.5/44-15 Boggers
or 18.5/44/15 Ground Hawgs
15x20 Wheels 8x6.5
Tire and wheel size is still alittle in the air, Jesse has final decision on it.

Lift/SAS Conversion
4.5" Farmboy Fabrications SAS conversion kit
10" Front Leafsprings
12" Rear Leafsprings
Again, until I hear from Jesse the lift setup is not set in stone.

Jesse @ Farmboy Fabrications will be doing the work.

Not sure Jesse will have the quote to me sometime next week or the week after. Then we will work on a date.

Ive seen a few SAS 04+ and they really look good on 40's or bigger

picked up a power steering pump rebuild kit. Will tackle that in the next few days... i think.

I found a set of 44's that i want to go take a look at. They wouldnt be much of a mud tire, but they would be fine for right now. Will update later.

nope just regular crossover. Turned great, but after id get stuck or in ruts the PS pump would blow and it wouldnt turn when stopped. It would turn fine while moving just not when stopped.

The steering angles were horrible, so with that fixed it will take a ton of pressure off the PS pump and probably allow it to survive. I got about 5-8 guys running the same setup as me and thet arent having any problems with their PS pumps
