I don't know how hard it is, but I lived in Okinawa for three years driving RHD cars. A couple things to think about: no more drive-thru's (this includes parking garages, ATM's, etc), you'll probably get alot more attention from the police, the wiper switch and turn signal switch are reversed, power window switches have to be switched from left to right and if it's an automatic you'll need the RHD shifter (w/ button on right instead of left). If you do it, it would be pretty awesome, though. I really wanted to bring my Twin Turbo Toyota Aristo back, but it just wasn't feasible.

Why would u have to switch the shifter ,thats not neccesary is it

and thanks for your thoughts mike but maybe u should have just bought a ford in the first place never liked your truck very much either , plus ive said it 100 times the frames going to be changed its last on the list im finishing the rest up first

before u speak theres really no right or wrong way to build one of these trucks as long as the welds are fine and theres no big gaps ( in other words its strong )

Haha me being different and yours being unsafe are apples and oranges dude. And that's fine if you dont like my truck, but atleast its safe and driveable. You asked for opinions and I gave you one. I don't think YOU should do it. Yes it can be done with stock parts.

Im with mikey on this one. Not trying to start shit but suspension and steering are no place for beginners and from what Ive seen you need more practice.
mazdawg(mikey)   +1y
I'm with you on any other mod as long as it doesn't involve structure or driveability. Steering is not a place you want something breaking.

As i have written many times bring the truck up here bro and will help you out I know you are trying to do it on your own and help from your friends around you but honestly just come up and we can get you on the road and have fun doing it. I am not wanting to start anything either but you need some help bro and doing a right hand drive is not as easy as you think.
