Great tips and web page Definitely came in handy with my door bottom repair. - thanks

Replaced bubling paint, rusty door bottoms on passenger side door. It took almost as much time contemplating the cut than the actual cutting and welding.

Any updates on those that recently did install of this lift? Ride quality, ride height, issues with needing longer rear shackle to level and of course pics

65swb45/ Mark and others Seems like you have a good deal of experience with ironman. I have been looking at 2.5 lifts for my 1981 fj40 (and although popular compete kits) I have been leaning away from OME given the shorter spring length and relocation of axle forward in rear wheel well. What...

Sent you an email . Hope u have one left

I did the same thing with the racor except i ditched the cable for thin spectra cord (>1000kg strength) as it was easier to center and tie on the hooks. On/off is 1 one person job.

I'll go next, flip the bezel (thick side up) and welcome to the insanity

Great build. Just read from the start. Enough of the cat pics, show one of that power wagon

I like the real steel deluxe (finished on both sides) but i ended making up a quick one out of wood. Took kick vent to hardware store to match paint, could not have been easier. Uses lower hinges from ambi doors

If the Tan one was at VO - it was mine
