Tubular control arms for a LUV

I am actually using the LUV frame under an old car. The Toyota was to wide or I would be using a Toyota Chassis. The LUV was about an inch narrower than the car it is going under where the Toyota was a could inches too wide. Th frame is a '80.   All 20's I am on the west side of the state near IN.

Probably would have been your best bet too for geometry, bolt pattern, and both aftermarket (control arms, drop spindles) and factory replacement parts... I still have to do the center link but I dont think that will be too bad.
