new radiator today,out of a mazda van got it in and plumbed in but its still running too cool if the fan is on at idle so it should be fine in the tracks, just gotta fit the timber deck then bleed the brakes and mount the fan switches and its good to go

Be hellish uncomfortable to ride in as it is. And you'll need a few extra bits to make anything of it. Some "Bling" for a start.

I thought I had seen a similar central control arm setup somewhere in the interweb for Jeeps (and on a rock crawling hilux/surf on here too I think).

That front driver's side is interesting, allows for a bit of movement I guess.
