cool....shouldn't b to hard to pickup it, just retaining chassis strength, and changing from diesel to petrol (tamk, fuel system etc.)

combis have leaf springs at the back i'm sure.
would need custom tempered ones made up afaik

would also lose body stregth chopping a van into a pickup.
better start point to import a pickup from SA or wherever and go from there.

think they're pretty cheap even BN.

but they will still be the same spring rate, just lower?

i wouldn't be keen on that with no weight in the back and a let in front.
