Have alook at www.trail-gear.com everything you need 

Toyota Landcruiser FJ40, front and rear lockers, 35" simex.
Toyota FJ45 build in progress.
Tires are like boobs, they always look big until you have played with them for a while, then you just want a bigger set.

Full hydro will not get certed for "Road Legal"....
As there has to be a direct connection between the steering wheel and wheels. Or something like that.
In case of hydraulic failure. Now I know there are some road legal diggers,tractors and forklifts with full hydro...
But they are not "normal" road going vehicles and require extra additions on your drivers licence.

He did say It wont be road legal

The special classes of vehicle you are refering to are also normally limited to 40k as well

Just make sure your aware its going to cost you well more than $1k to set up. my full hydro 4 wheel steer owes me over $2k, the plumbing cost $550 for parts alone.
