5)how bad is the gas mileage on these trucks from 81-87?
1.) Most of those are 2wd, aren't they? I saw one on TV and it was rear wheel. May as well go with 4x4 tho... you can take it through mud that way.
2) It looks like it's lifted 2-4 inches, based on where the wheels are in relation to everything else.
3) 38.5"-40" based on the size relative to what I assume are 15" rims
4) That's really up to you. Personally, I'd go with a long box.
5) Mine gets 10-12 with close to stock size tires. However, I didn't notice any decrease in mileage when I went a bit bigger
