Offroad Trailblazers and Envoys

SAS rigs

G80, GU6, GT4, GT5, WTF? This section is for gearing and driveline stuff.

Ben's thread got me thinking....How many SAS trailvoys are out there?
I know we have Steve's, Anton's, the show poodle from pirate and the one Ben is working on.
Are there any others that you are aware of?

There was one that popped up on Raleigh craigslist a few weeks ago. No idea who or where it was from. Description was very vague.

found the link.

Looks very sloppy. But a good starting point! I could buy that and just transfer over my accessories!

I attached the pics from the Raleigh SAS just so we would have them for historical purposes.

Both axles need to be moved or tires will self clearance the body badly when it flexes.

Oh, wait. Those flat leafs in the back are never going to flex upwards.

...and those lift blocks.

No front DS.... I'll bet there's either no steering or it's scary as hell.

I'm guessing there's quite a bit on that thing to torch off and start over on.

they are photo shopped, post 24 is obvious right off the bat, #26 took me another second to realize it.
