i've got an 83 yota now as a donner vehicle, gonna take the front axle, crossover steering, front and rear 3rds, (cause they are already geared and locked) and the flat bed. Not sure what springs i am gonna run yet. I have some on the rear but not sure if i am gonna use them. Other than that, dual cases, get front fenders and hood that are strait and paint it. I will prob even rob tha cage out of the cab of my 83.

Never heard anything bad, almost everyone I know runs them. on a Yota they really work well.
