As far as the airbags are concerned go to www.suicidedoors.com
i'll leave the IFS question for someone else, as far as the other mods, they are very serious mods and are not to be taken lightly and are based on personal opinion at that time, whether you want to tilt the windhields back or cut it, headroom of course(not everyone is the same height) and sectioning is a really serious mod that is best left to profesionals as even really great home builders have screwed this one up (I am one of them, but i have chopped 4 tops perfectly) and if you goof it up you throw the truck to the scrap pile. I am not saying you can't do it, I just want to make sure you know your own skills before you attempt it and ruin your ride. If you want to learn practice on a couple junkers, it may cost a little in the beginning but the things you learn is worth it all in the end. I learned the hard way and had to throw a 53 Ch**y coupe in the garbage ( It was also my late grand fathers car) Now i recognize my level of skill and don't let my ambitions get way ahead of the reality
