Are you planning to do this yourself, or pay someone. If you are going to pay a shop, yes it will cost yoou some significant coin. If you are planninf to do this yourself, it will deffinatley cost less, but if you have to ask whats involved, you might not be up to the task. There is a fair bit involved in doing a SAS
PROPERLY.
Have a look at A1s build, and a few others (Ant's might still have pics) and have a look at the builds on Pirate4x4.com.

I wasn;t having a go at your car Antt - it has a nice stance and is nicely built IMHO. I have seen too many hacked SAS's mostly in the US that are about 10" to tall and look supers pooky.
