    Considering `91 Vanagon -> `95-`97 FJZ80

    I agree about all said with loose / poor maintained components. However, a well maintained stock height 80 is IMHO very tight, and not at all sketchy at highways speeds. While mine is neither stock height or a DD anymore, it was once. I've had panic stop situations on the freeway were I was...

    Considering `91 Vanagon -> `95-`97 FJZ80

    One thing: most of the replies, if not all have ignored is your height of 6’2”. You will find the driving room for the 80 cramped unless you get some state seat extension brackets to move the drivers seat back. Landtank made some, don’t know who selling them currently. However, if you’re used to...

    Stock Shocks with aftermarket springs

    If you need new shocks, and are anticipating getting a lift.… You can get the nitro charger shocks or any shocks for a 2 inch lift now and run those with your stock suspension. Then add the springs later, problem solved. I did this when I was running a stock replacement before I lifted my truck.

    1FZFE Head Bolt / Stud question

    One of the reasons for the ARP's is budget . The OEM bolts and washers cost roughly $340, whilst the ARP kit is roughly $100 less. Not huge , but not chump change either, for what is considered a superior component.

    Stock Shocks with aftermarket springs

    Why are you considering using stock height shocks with a lifted vehicle if you are already ok with they cost of new shocks? Lifting puts additional roll into a vehicle; and among other things, stock shocks are not tuned to deal with this roll. Not apples to apples on an 80 series, but I had...

    1FZFE Head Bolt / Stud question

    My 95 has a blown head gasket after flogging it to death pulling a box trailer for a month for work while searching for a new V8 Sequoia to replace the one my daughter totaled. I'm getting ready to replace the HG in the truck, and have a good spare engine (also with a minor HG leak) to mix/...
