your welcome to come out and check it out if you want (mind you every thing is just sitting there at the moment and the only things that are bolted in are the hilux diffs and then only the front is bolted in properly)

yes it is.....


i sold both the lwb utes and the other to him...

we have put a wt sierra body (chopped into a ute)
onto a lwb nt chassis...
we only had to drill the 2 rear centre holes to make it fit...

so was the only thing different just the 2 centre holes? and are theses body mounts that u are talking about?

i've got a lwb nt with a stuffed body too that i want to replace in the future. i've got a good 85 model 1 litre body here which i was goin to chop down into a ute and put on, but from what i've read that's be a real PITA to put on. But i may have access to affordable wt body soon, would that be the go?
