LOL ( when i got it....from then to now which one is best?)  |

just got sum pictures of the front suspension from google but me thinks would be easier to make front suspension from a toyota than find a yard stripping an evo... unless you want rid of yours tim? |

take it to bits too see how it should work..

too may more bits to break there steve me thinks..correct me if i am wrong but the suspension is already independent its just that is uses torsion bars instead of the more common spring shocker set up. to graft a toyota set up on it would not give much more articulation, clearance maybe, but as the toyota has a rigid front axle it is limited by the prop angle then you are going to the relams of specialist prop setups which to say the least are costly you may as well sell the truck and buy a landcruiser and jack it up to silly heights swb colorado would be ideal starter..nice torquey engine that is bullet proof(apart from cracking heads on 3.0L diesel) but if you can do it mate good luck, it just seems a lot of money for not much more gain.
