"Christine" is a straight axle truck. I could fab up some custom long travel a arms and strut type suspension for the front with a rack and pinion. I thinking like 12" travel....

The back can be easily modified with struts and ladder links.

All ready has a bad EFI 472 in her....LOL Nice thing about here is i can also tag it.

Yeah I am happy with the lift, although I just have a 6 in it and have not really tested out the suspension yet. Have had a few prerunners before and always been a fan of the old skool i beam trucks for strengh and being fairly inexpensive! If I had the money I would definitly get the extended radius arms, but would use a more modern large capacity offroad shock, like King or Fox.
