    It is an extremely easy install. Everything just bolts up directly. Think that you just have to drill out one hole and that is it. Plus i think i can get you the parts and you pay for shipping. Much improvent over stock trucks. :D

    well im still weighing my options. right now i have a friend that can make me a really good deal on a ford 302 and c-4 tranny. or if the supra front works as good as posted i will just buy a whole junker supra and swap in the motor and tranny out of it. at this point right now im still planning out the build of the truck. i do know it will be eating up room in my garage for a long time. probably going to take me a year just on the frame and suspension, mainly because i dont know if i am going to leave the rear alone or swap to irs, and then i havent decided if i do irs what im going to use. it will be either an rx7, 240 or supra.

    The supra thing would be awesome all you would have to do is buy a wrecked supra and swap in the front suspension and then the irs and the
    7mgte and transmisson. I thought about doing a 350 swap but I would rather keep it all toyota.

    I will try to get some info this week. Have two close friends with the swap on their 84s and they love it. Especially the brake upgrade. My friends with the shop i hang out at are always throwing these parts away, they usually use the engines and electronics of the front clips they get, and throw the rest away. They actually have about 4 supra irs' laying in the back of the shop. They want to put one on my truck, maybe one day:)
