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?

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!

Before drilling that hole use plenty of lube!
if you are going to use a hole saw that is.

humphey I PMed you but this was just as easy
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.
