I am starting to build my 69 Toyota Hilux . It is the first year of the toyota mini . I have decided to redesign my hilux into my original style.I have already started to by makin a 2.25 in. drop in the front. I will be fully stripping it down to install air ride and a 2.5 in body drop. I am installing a 3sgte and a 6 spd . I am also making it an extra cab and installing a sliding rag top. Im still debating on what to do for the rear bag link suspension, but i do know i would like to install a super lift. any suggestions?here are some pics.

well I bought a parts truck for some extra parts. I stripped it down to bare frame and cut every bracket off the frame and now I am completely rebuilding the frame. so far I have z'd the frame 2 inches and i have narrowed the frame 3 inches for more rear rubber... I have cut the frame in half and built a new rear half out of 2x4 3/16 wall. I want to narrow the frame another inch for front cleareance. the truck has a bolt on k member for front suspension and I lowered it 2.5 inces and Now I am redoing it because it looks stock but I want it to look trick so I am going tomake one of tubing. i havent decided if I want to use square or round 1 inch tubing... I will try to get some more pics up of my progress on the frame... thanks
