Started painting my front end

Anything is possible with time and money, I think for what you are trying to do, you're going to have to cut and weld something, nothing will just bolt in. As far as SAS cost goes.....12-20k depending on what axle (s) and other parts you throw at it. FWIW on my first SAS my tires were only...

I think you're getting into chop chop territory. Either SAS or custom IFS. there just isnt enough room to do what you want. I say chop it up and make it exactly how you want.

Why would you want this? The H3 has a passenger drop t case. If it didnt, this wouldn't be an issue and you could shoe horn any of the hundreds of other driver drop IFS diffs in place. If you're running a driver drop t case or planning on it, just get literally any other driver drop ifs diff and...

Frame side is just about done. I have to add a bumpstop mount, brake line tab, and linit strap mount and that's about it. Then onto all of the little assembly and paint. Ignore the sh*ty paint, I just sprayed some touch up paint on the cuts so they wouldn't rust, the liner will cover most of...

Rear 14b is in and done minus final torque and a couple brake line fittings and bleeding the brakes.

I have dealt with them on my old daily driver, no complaints/issues. I also know Josh and Geno run or have run shafts from them before as well. Is your rear shaft a custom length with the spring over?

How many miles are on it? You have to remember, even the newest h3 is 14-15 years old at this point, with yours being 18 years old. They have little to no support left, and you have to get creative. They're going to need maintenance, a lot of maintenance

I've always heard non greaseable is better since it does not have the channels for the grease, it is therefore inherently stronger vs the greaseable one.

And then painted.

Had to figure out where the rear abs sensors were going to go. I picked up a set of gm sensor mounts designed from wfo concepts, originally designed for gm sas swaps with ford axles, however I just needed rhe sensor mount part, since that is largely the same across gm vehicles.....or so I...

Progressing along, front axle is completely welded, all brackets gusseted, weld washers on everything. Did one more mockup before welding the frame hoops. This is at full stuff and droop. Everything clears and cycles, should be right around 4.5 inches of up travel. Coilovers at ride height are...

To do it the "right way" you have a few options 1. Starr HIDs, which im fairly certain they dont make anymore 2. Retrofitting HID or LED projector into the oem housing 3. lased design 7 inch headlight adapter, lets you run basically any aftermarket 7 inch headlight, but they have been out of...

Your best bet is to find a set of lased design adapters or make your own. The standard 7 inch round headlight fits the best IMO. You can take the factory housing apart and add halos or projectors if you want. IMO get/find the adapter and buy the morimoto super 7 led projector. they are the best...

You shouldn't have any problem rebuilding the 5.3 you have. basically all of the guts are the same as any other gen IV gm LS engine. If you're tearing it all the way down with 200k miles on it, i would definitely take it to a machine shop and have it gone over before you reassemble it. As far...

Got the third link upper all welded in and gusseted. Maybe overboard on the gussets but better safe than sorry

Front. I haven't decided if I want to do the rears. The liners are still installed so I'm being lazy about that haha

Small side project. I decided since I had everything apart, I would get rid of the push plastic clips that hold the fender in. I drilled each hole out and added 1/4x20 stainless steel rivnuts and plus nuts for the plastic. I'll now run bolts similar to the one 10mm that's already there to hold...
