erod,
Nice old rig, I had a '82 Toyota long bed I bought in '84 and drove until '02 when I got the Tacoma. Love the pictures as always. Thanks.

I had the same decal pattern on my Toyota and I'm willing to bet the paint code is "8N" or "8NE" (its been a while). I would stay with the IFS if I were you, and maybe consider a front sway bar disconnect.

I like a solid axle but Ed is right get rid of the sway bar and give your self a little more wheel travel.
