we are going to try and run coilovers and triple bypass shock with hyro bump stops to stop up travel and to take the harsh hits out as well and some kind of torsion sway bar to keep it flat when going around corners hard this kind of fornt end will flex way better.
Obviously as this is going to be a Frankenstein part-Prado, part-80 series, part buggy, it will be hard to compare to any stock vehicle, but how high do you plan on having it?[B]Declan[/B]: [SIZE=1]1997 GXL 4.5 Auto 80 series on [B][COLOR="#FF0000"]LPG[/COLOR][/B], ARB bullbar, 2" OME lift, 32" MTZ, GME UHF, rear ARB locker, Kaymar spare wheel carrier[/SIZE]

If the 5.3 is free take it but is not go the ls2 it will only cost a couple of grand more but will be a hell of a lot more motor. 5.3 make about 340hp out of the box a ls2 makes 400hp. So if u pipe cam and tune then it's going to be close to that at the wheels. Power is king in sand and mud.

Will the 5.3 is going to be a wast of time. We may have found a cheap prado over east but we got to work out if trucking it over to the west is worth it. It's a stocky so will go over the pits nice and easy.
Been working out the best way to get all the gear over here that's need from the state.
Got a mate that well do the ute chop. He's done a heap of different chops so know what to do. He all so said the we may have to beef up the chassis as well so it doesn't snap in half. Which sounds like a great idea.
