Most of the time a Hilux one will do the job but if you need more you will need to go custom. Something like this-

Adrian Runs Box. I only made that one the other day. But i can tell you where to get the material. And you should have someone up there with a lathe?

A good quality one at low speed should work ok.

on one of my cruisers i oxy'ed the hole (Craig can cut a near perfect circle with the oxy and the pipe slid in)

on my ute i got the hanger and notched the chassis to fit the hanger in it NICE! :lol:

Before drilling that hole use plenty of lube! :twisted:

if you are going to use a hole saw that is. :lol:

humphey I PMed you but this was just as easy :roll:

I had mine done like this so the chassis did not have to be cut or drilled

Edit: Another reason they were done like this is the 60 series front diff offset required the springs to be slightly outboarded.
