    I had one of these tops a long time ago, nothing special about the threaded snaps

    I always enjoy your posts, it’s a history lesson in short paragraphs…

    Nice looking top! Where from? Looking for someone that can make one with a few features my current (worn) top has but the SOR/TROA tops do not.

    Correct that I have 31's, was thinking about going bigger after I get my PS installed but maybe not! This exhaust is perfection and I don't want to mess with it. The setup that you have configured fits stock FJ40's and people that modify their...

    🤙 exactly why i suggested making a slip fitting parallel to and past the muffler that allows any end user to add the final "oem" side exit location piece (and even rotate and trim it a bit if needed, or re-route as needed for a modded setup...

    I second selling the stock exhaust and let folks that have other setups tweak it to fit.

    I run flipped springs and 37’s/38’s. There is no way to get a pipe out between the tire and spring. This setup, with a catalytic converter has no exhaust smell with the top off. Only thing I can figure is that the tire creates enough turbulence...

    Might be interested if the winch ends up for sale...

    Since I am sprung under, the next question I need to answer is whether my 17" rims with 3.75" backspacing will clear the 1-ton TRE's I use on standard steering arms without wheel spacers
  • CruisinGA
    Just ordered! Hopefully this is the ticket. I'd forgotten about the IFS hub option, but this solves only part of the problem as I am trying to get the tire closer to the turn radius for better handling. Wheel spacers themselves don't really...
  • CruisinGA
    I'd like to ditch wheel spacers in the front on my FJ40 and I need to replace my front axle housing anyway (trashed inner seal surface from too many broken birfs) I'd rather not outboard the front springs, has anyone done this by notching the...

    I live in Atlanta, north end of the city, but actually in the city.

    It would be a lot of work @clrussell @cims1970fj40 I actually used my log splitter as a press to bend the b pillar and then welded off the truck after test fitting

    might have ended up being a little more than 5/8" but that is what I was aiming for.

    I bent mine with the tube inside the b pillar. I ended up taking 2.5-3" out of the horizontal part of the bow

    Happy to sell rims alone or with the tires. If you want just the rims I'll keep the tires for my crossfit friends. The rims use standard lug nuts. $200 obo for 4 with or without the tires.

    CruisinGA replied to the thread FJ40 Brake Bleeding troubles.
    Once I got married and no longer had roommates to help me, I quickly stopped asking my wife to help bleed brakes and bought one of these (air powered vacuum bleeder). Last master cylinder I installed (80 series non ABS in my FJ40 when I went to 4...

    The most surprising part about that is @HENDOG actually knowing his way anywhere...well say it was the other guy! He is a good friend of mine and I've unfortunately bought 2 Toyotas from him, you'd think I'd learn after 1 but I went back for more.

    That's funny you have on of @HENDOG 's old 40's. First time I went to Tellico (I was 16) I was lost (before GPS) and Hendog and some other guys passed me on the way and showed me the rest of the way in. This was ~2004. Small world
