Does he have a Tacoma or a 3rd gen 4runner - long travel on the front of either will always be limited by the stock rear setup on either platform. A stock width front with a spring under (Tacoma) rear or a 3 link (4runner) rear will outperform a truck with long travel in the front and stock...

I remember a video of a 4x4 conversion on an Astro using that. Not a horrible vehicle for a camping van.

Borescopes are pretty reasonably priced these days. Can check it out before even turning a wrench if it’s going to take awhile to get around to taking it apart.

JD fab makes a drop in 9” housing for 2nd-3rd Gen Tacomas. Probably have a workaround for it.

Yeah factory paint (if that’s what you’re removing) takes a lot of effort if you’re trying to get it 100% off. I usually cram an angle grinder wire wheel / flap disk / dremel grinding bit or sand barrel as far in every spot as much as I can and only then do I bust out the acetone / rag / sand...
