Did you adapt the Toyota throttle cable for the Cummins or go a custom route?

What kind of custom cable do you have?Custom. FJ60s don't have a throttle cable from the factory.

Yeah, awesomeHad to get creative winching to get her down to a flat spot so we could work on her.

To make matters worse, moving the truck with starter and winch at the same time seems to have burned out my fusible link. Had to cobble together a repair on the trail.
4ish hours later a buddy of mine brought up 10gallons of diesel and we were moving again. It was fun getting out of 71b

should I go custom valving
I'm looking at the AK7114R06, which has 800/3600 valving according to 4wp website. Length concerns aside, do you think that valving will be stiff enough, or should I go custom valving like you have to be even stiffer?
Think it's worth it to get a custom set of Alcan springs (or whatever) or should I just put on another used set of FJ60 springs with proper bumpstops? I have another set of FJ60 rear springs, so I'm leaning that way.
A swaybar is in my future, but not in this phase. Although I have a tow rig for the harder wheeling trips, I still put 10-12k miles a year on Moonshine! Does a swaybar change the shock stiffness you'd get?
Not sure if I'm using custom brackets or spacers, or what, but I have a mill, a lathe, and plenty of material, so I'll make it work somehow.
