I have put a 4" autowrecker special suspension lift along with a 1.5" body lift in it. I also built an on board air compressor from parts at the autowreckers. I have built a receiver hitch on the front and back, as well as mounted 35" tires on it. The fender flares are off of an 87 4Runner (again from the autowreckers. I used to work there.
This truck goes to show that you can build a truck for a reasonable price. I bought the truck for $1000, and have put around $3000 into it since I bought it. Unfortunately I have had to sell it. It has served me well over the 5 years that I have owned it, and will serve the next person well. It has been in my family since 1986 and has treated my uncle and I very well.
