| Transforming 80's - from a '91 to a '97
I started with the '91 
Then got the '97 
Hooked the two together 
Fenders and cladding went to the '91 
ARB, Sliders, Lift went to the '97...tires on the way

| Good eye. Stock FJ Cruiser Wheels on the '91 and Tundra wheels on the '97. Found them on Craigslist.
I'm wondering how the FJ80 is going to feel when I roll it out of the shop without 35's and all the armor. Probably like a rocket!

| Since I may be looking for a second set of rims (since my mod maddness itch is getting the best of me) do the rear hubs allow the center caps to fit or do you need spacers. I have 1.5" spacers now and am considering the Sequoia or FJCruiser rims next...
Thanks!

| I found the 5 FJ Cruiser wheels with 70% tires for $350. Not a bad deal. I'm sure if you're patient you can find them for that much or even less.
Here's where I got the idea Toyota FJ Cruiser Wheels on my FJ80 Land Cruiser | Pacific Northwest Backroad Adventures 
You can see that the center caps fit on the rear.

| Most center caps wont fit on the later full float axle rigs. Center caps are for .
