Slowely looking through those now.
How wide is the inside of your chassis where the trailing arms weld on?
How wide is the outside of your chassis where the coil hats are?
Was it modified at the diff end to suit?
Is it possible to use the 79 series drag link and panhard on the hilux?
Did you need 80 series callipers aswell as hubs?
Is the 79 diff interchangeable with the hilux (solid front) Or are they high pinion?
How much did you pay for your 79 front cut?
Sorry for so many questions.

I'll measure the chassis tomorrow aswell but the arm mounts sit about half on/ half off the chassis with a gusset over the top and no the diff isn't modded mines 79 draglink and 80 panhard, the 80 panhard is shorter than 79 when I got my 79 housing it had no hubs, discs or calipres at all mine are 80 but they might be the same as 79 anyway I'm not sure. 79's hi pinion but you can put the hi pinion into a leaf lux so you should be able to do the reverse however in my opinion you need the hi pinion to help with your tailshaft angle I think my front cut was about $700
