Topic: 89 2wd, 86 IFS frame, body mounts GONE, keep stock cab location or back 2"???

[BoG-ToY]

SO I know I will run into ALOT of problems and controversy about this BUT, I picked up a complete rolling frame that had was already part of a custom cab swap, but now, that cab has been scrapped.

I have to make ALL my own body mounts... SO I am wondering should I move the body back an inch or two? add an 2" of body lift built into the frame? I know that I will have some problems with the steering box as well as the radiator but I think those could be overcome, It will move the shifter forward, brake lines clutch lines BUT I think even at 2" it will be completely OK. SO post up, let me know. I want to start on it soon,
for right now I am keeping the IFS as this will see more DD use and less wheelin. AND I have a complete fj60 rolling chassis that I plan on building a "street legal  "   offroad rig.... or a strait up ftoy as the body is gone.....

No body lift, move the cab back a 3" minimum and bring the engine back too.  Better center of gravity and tire clearance with th inferior suspension.
