You've been around longer than most of us have; shouldn't you know? If there is not a build thread in the rigs section, then I'd have to take a wild guess and say no. No current members have either.
All SAS's are pretty much the same process. Go to a dodge forum and search. I'm sure it has been done.

Re: sas dakota
My biggest advice on SAS is take a long look at how tall it will end up. Some rigs are very difficult to keep low on leaf springs. The frames were not designed with the proper arch to clear a solid axle. May want to consider coils to keep it low. It will drive up the cost but an SAS is not a cheap project. Or consider front halfing the truck to make the frame and engine clear the axle. Also make sure you put the axle you want in it the first time. That and do a lot of reading to learn form other peoples mistakes.
