Its major engineering so forget about what a reasonable price is. Its going to cost almost as much as the trucks worth now but your not doing this as a cheap fix. I dont know of any coil front end bighorns but it does make the perfect setup. What diffs are you going to use? We want lots of pictures of what will be a fantastic project.

I know 4wd Upgrades on Brougham St do axle swap work with isuzus, but you might also talk to Rick at 4wd Accessories in Montreal St. He's a good guy and knows his stuff - well thought of by clubmen.
I've got an idea 4wd Upgrades charged around $1500 for sas job a year or two ago - don't know if that included parts. I think you end up with a largely hilux front end (4.88?) with their option. I think this would be leaves, not coils? Unsure now how they set them up.
Steve on this site (Himuzulux) also worked through an sas option, and could give good starting advice. His last cell no 021 637 600.
Cheers, Mike

hi there i'm half way thru my sas using gq patrol diffs coils all round just finished the rear & i'm stoked with the outcome from the ground to the rear guard the ride height is 4' or 125cm. i'm just waiting for my custom tailshaft this week hopefully b4 i can reverse it out the garage so i can properly articulate the rear so as to determine the amount of travel needed for the new shocks. oh & i've taken heaps of pics along the way ;D just unsure whether to post as i go or wait till its finished? cheers muvit
