anything is possible, just down to how much $$$ he wants to spend.

its D22 with the infamous ZD30 motor.

basic lift, add a extra rear leaf or change rear leaves and adjust torsions to suit, which is fairly common as they are soft as butter and probably sagging already.

theres 3"+ kits which involve changing front arms etc.
max height ?? how fat is your wallet ;)

on that navara site a few guys have SFA conversions.
one problem is they stretch transfer chains. there is stronger ones around tho.
IFS front diff is quite weak but you can swap in a stronger diff.
crawlers gears are available.

certainly patrols are an easier base to work from. everything is stronger on them.

I think that is the thing.

Whats his budget?
What does he consider Tuff?
What mods does he have in mind?
