I am personally working on the product report for the bulging/cracking aprons, and will be meeting with them today to begin analysis of the failure on Graham's well known, heavily modified and often wheeled Dune Beige FJC.
Toyota is very involved in this product issue, but it will most likely not be a near-term solution or even acknowledgment until everything has been thoroughly dissected.
Product report for whom & meeting with whom? Not being snarky at all...just curious at what level.
At the regional level at this point. Old aprons are packed up & ready to go to Houston.Product report for whom & meeting with whom? Not being snarky at all...just curious at what level.

TMS may beat us to it for all I know, they have been working on it in CA for a while now.

Contrare my friend! Check the FJ40 body just behind the door striker plate and the rear tub side. (body calking is pulled away and small cracks appear) This is where the FJ40’s develop body cracks, ask the restoration guys for more info.
Back to the real topic: My GSJ15 only has 2400 miles, but most of that is of road todate. No rips yet. We will see what happens when we chop off the IFS if that helps!

Specualting on what Toyota is going to do is a waste of time, considering they haven't even acknowledged a specific problem and are in the exploratory phase.So, if this IS actually being caused by using heavy bumpers and winches up front, is it something that Toyota is going to honor under the warantee? Seems like they should concidering the fact that they not only are marketing the FJ with the big ARB bumper and 9.5 winch, but apparently you can get them from the dealer with the lift, bumper and winch installed. So toyota obviously has confidence in the set-up. Anyone have any thought on that?
Could this be attributed to the body mounts possibly as well as frame flex?
