go to the members section and read shorty_forty's and twisty's build up threads.

they will help you understand how to get a lot of flex from a 40 series. If you want to keep it low do not go SPOA (there is no need). Both of these vehicles use very basic mods to get additional flex (longer springs). Neither of these have hi steer or 60 series diffs. You will have to search a bit harder for info on fitting the 60 series diffs (i can't remember what threads it is in). The width of the 60 series diffs means that the spring perch or spring mounts will need minor modifications. Good luck with the project.
