You are not gonna get a complete list of materials! I did not write down any of the measurements. I used a different front axle, different springs and cut the steel as I needed it. The CJ7 springs may be too light. I used YJ springs and combined 2 sets per side and it flexed great but they were too soft. For steering I used Parts Mike high steer setup. The best resource for a SAS is without a doubt, Pirate 4x4. Get on there and do a LOT of reading!

Regal, Duuude, please don't make me go thru the hassle of signing up on myspace to see pics of your Badasstro! Where can I see some? Link me up, bro!
