Isn't a 100 a coil spring suspension that is bolted to the same frame as a
150 and 200?  And a 1000/1010 is the torsion bar, which has a different
frame?

Hey, if everything were ready...it COULD be done.  I just an kind of
Landryesque when I'm putting new parts on my truck.  The only
things that were not bolt on was the exhaust changes, modification of 
the 2 wheel drive center bearing crossmember, and if you do it,
swapping to the shorter 4x4 springs.  But, I'd recommend taking
longer than a weekend...
