Go to www.pirate4x4.com and look at their toyota FAQ which will tell you about moving rears up front. I think it will be an uneven lift, though, between the 6 inch lift in the rear and the small 2 or 3 inch lift in the front due to the rear springs.

If the steering box is in good shape than it would be worth it just for the box alone. Check for play and slop in the box. People seem to know that people need them for High Steer conversions...

What NavyRedneck said about the uneven lift would be correct. Pirate is a great source. People seem to get some great flex with rears up front (RUF).
