Is it rusty enough underneath? I think thats the only credentials it needs to join.

Rust is a sign of maturity.

You got it then? Good stuff.

Winch bumper may be tricky as I have a feeling the IFS front of the chassis is slightly different to the leaf sprung trucks like mine and 'stiens, which are the same as the pickups. I'll have a squint at the Logeys truck compared to mine.
The snorkel is easy, any diesel mk2 pickup isthe same.

Thanks tony .......what about lift goodies

Its IFS right? Front is the same as a 2nd Gen, Torsion bars, ball joint spacers, diff drop etc...

Rear is same as Mk2 Pickup, only need bigger springs or extended shackles. Only thing to watch is Some 4runners/Surfs have smaller pin dia on the shackles and more rubber in the bushes, (I guess to make it ride smoother than the truck version) so you need bushes to match what ever shackles you buy for the back.

Dosn't seem to apply to all, but got caught once on a truck.

So it's a cross between a ln65/ ln106......Can you supply shackles shocks etc......as will be lifting in the near future, i take that the bodylift on the 2nd gen will transfer

[BioHazard]

Oh another thought , i will be breaking the 2nd gen are the head compatable??

Body lift blocks will be fine, may need different bolts.

Most diesel 1st gens have an older version of the 2LT, with rockers instead of OHC, so heads are different.
