all shifters are in the one spot, no need to cut another hole in the tunnel
(In my case however, I still had to as I changed from a forward shift to top shift, so blanking front hole required + I wanted to retain my console)

You can use the lexus auto and the surf rear auto housing with the chain to gear drive adaptor. You just need to swap or shorten the output shaft. Pic courtesy of Boof

Planning to get something newer/tow rig in 6-12mths and I love the hilux but it is failing in the power dept. & also lacks towing ability. LC200 woulda be the ...

Factory height progressive 80 series coils from dobinsons gave a neat 4" (and coped better with the extra weight of the rear bar and spare tyre)
Is that what you settled on in the runner Twisty?
I heard progressive will give you comfy ride but hamper flex. Yours seemed to flex well in the rear.

nice truck mate, sounds like a good score.
I have gotten heaps of stuff from Lowrange, they are great to deal with. I considered there dual case x member but once we decided to lift the cases it wouldnt suit. And its also cheaper if you can or have a mate with fab skills

well I have done both (low profile x member & body/engine/trans lift) and gained around 4.5inches. we were going for a flat belly but I would have to cut too much of my floor out to lift the cases any higher.
You can just go with the low profile x member if you dont wanna do all the other work, its ...

I got the top shift conversion kit B and it worked a treat, however the block off plate didnt fit the bolt pattern for the front hole.
I think I have a top shifter & base laying around, I'll try and dig it out if your after one
