I would check out the 79-83 1st gen section and read around there also look at build threads of your year. Figure out what your goals are for your truck and then go from there.
Remember
Armor
Gears
Lockers
Tires
Lift
In order of importance for off road capabilities

Have fun use the search engine and wheel it before you throw money at t. These Toyotas are very capable stock. Figure out if it lacking for you and then change it.

Lifts are not that important for basic off road capability. Makes for good mall crawlers though.

Thanks that helps I'll look into it. My truck sits really low and can't put bigger tires. What are good lockers for crawling? And what are some good gears?

Man you got a lot of research to do if you're asking those questions
