85 runner buggy

So I am new here but not to toyotas. This is going to to my most indepth build I have ever attempted. I have an 85 runner. this thing is as low end as it gets, no clock, no cruise, no intermintent (SP?) wipers, nothing. I have built it once before. It had stock toy axles, both welded lifed 6" with 35s, but now I want to go extreeme. I am going to run dual dana 60s steer axles. rear recentered 4 link front and rear, full hydro steer. I am torn between coil overs and air shocks. i want to narrow the front and rear of the body as far as possible. ls or lt motor with th400 tranny and 203/205 doubler. I kinda need help, I have not narrowed anything before and I have no dout that I have the ability but I am not one to jump into a project without research so I would like to know if anyone has ever done a good narrow job and can give me some hints. I have found a few write-ups on it but nothing that really says how they did it. The rear should be easy but how about the front. I will post pics when I have enough posts to do so.
