resurrecting my '80

got an '80 sr5 shortbox that I'm bringing back to life. It was owned by hillbillies for I don't know how long, but they had some crazy ideas. I'm looking at rewiring the whole truck, dropping in a 20r, and a clutch. I already removed the homemade 4" body lift, (scary!), and I painted the frame with por15 for the rust. I'm just looking for any kind of input on the early rigs. Wiring diagrams, fuse diagrams and locations, tips and tricks, anything anyone thinks is useful. I'm trying to make a good wheeler out of her on a shoestring budget, and I'm new to yotatech. Thanks a million guys!

4" body lift....nice...

here is a wiring harness listed on portland's craigslist:

Here is a killer deal for a factory service manual, though for an '81 is should be close for diagrams you need...

I paid $65 for mine....
