You call you insurance company or a JY? You will probably have better luck getting parts from ebay and JY's and doing the work yourself.

Alright im keeping the truck!
im fixing everything.
im cutting the cab off and welding a new one on.
im putting 4" prerunner fenders on front and rear.
all new windows and side mirrors
i might be putting a roll cage in it since im cutting the cab off.
and putting deep dish rims on my tires so they wont rub as much
i need a new light bar i think and new lights
new tail lights

its going to be a big project. but i think it will be worth it at the end... ill keep you updated with pictures!

I think a cab swap would be easier than welding two together... its gonna take quite a bit of time... with enough help I think it could go quicker.. may be able to find a hole cab windows doors and all in a JY.. maybe a bed too... and fenders... Glass fenders are an option now too..
