Is a SAS the only option?

[Bennybooster]

So if money was not a option, what would you have?
A built chromo d-60 running 40+ tires, coilivers, fourlinked bla bla bla.
Or still running a TTB?
Be honest now.

For most its not a matter of which one is better, its a matter of overall cost, space, time ect ect.

Lets be honest, if i had unlimited funds.........
Chromo tube buggy
Supercharged 5.0L w/alum heads
Atlas three speed 1:1 - 4:1 - 5.5:1
Rockwells 2in overson shit all around
49 irocs on double beadlocks

Also consider hybrid axles (14bolt steers or the f106/rockwells)

Awsome throttle responce, moderate tire size for 2in ouverson axles, fairly light weight... You could beat it do death and be pretty confident of not beakin it.
For what i do, thats the best, of the best, of the best. It would SUCK in the desert or on the street.

THERE IS NO PERFECT SET UP. If there was, all our junk would look alike.

If you're building a hard-core rock buggy and want to run 49" tires, there really should be no question at all as to what are good axles to use. :icon_idea:

That is not the purpose of this post.
This post was specifically intended for those running 33" or 35" tires on their truck and wondering if an axle swap is something they should be looking into or not. For someone who might simply be dealing with a tire wear problem or with stiff springs that don't flex, there are other (far easier) ways to fix such issues than swapping out the whole axle & suspension (which this post aims to address).

Please, lets try to keep this in mind here when posting.

My thoughts on this. I have 35s, 4.88s, Lockrite lockers. I have off roaded with fullsize 4x4s. They were shocked my TTB didnt not explode into 1 million tiny little pieces. One guy even had some kind of super Dana 30 in a cherokee with chrome moly shafts. I think he spent around 3k$ on it. TTB works fine unless you want to go hardcore.
