Default What chassis would you guys recomend?

Hey guys i have these 3 bodies, not including a whole bunch other bodies and unfinished projects, that i'am looking to get a chasiss or two for them, i want to rule out the k2 as i already own a 3s an a 3l, it has to be for a wb of 10" to 10.5" , 4 link preferred but i can work with leafs also.
Here are the pics one is 82? yota, tacoma and the other one is a 2 door toyota rav?

Chip to be honest i have built one or two chassis and i didn't really like the way they turned out, i really enjoy building my rigs even if don't always finish them, it's the fabbing that i really don't enjoy that much, even though i have bought a whole bunch of tools for that purpose(still duelling on if i should get a lathe).
Bd mfm, great idea gotta get the specs, length and width.

The new TB2 will work perfect I bet. These TB's have been sleepers so far, you need to build a mini me of my truggy now
