whats your budget?

i have a 97 single cab bought it pretty stock besides a sagged suspension lift.

try and pick up a ute with less k's on it then that. and if you can something with abit of gear like a snorkel or bl.

2" suspension 2" body lift 33" tyres can be a weapon in the right hands.
1997 solid front axel hilux, big plans for it.

generally speaking the stocker it is the better condition its mechanicals will be in = less work.

but more you have to spend on parts and changing them = more work.

if looked after the engines are good for alot more than 250000 mine has just clicked over 313,000 and is turboed and tows carries loads etc regularly.

2 inch plus shifted diff forward is high enough for most stuff and clearing decent tyres. keeps weight low too.
