Did the same mod to the front stock axle.

I lowered it to 900.

Complete rear axle assembly with disc brake conversion. Rebuilt in 2012 with entire 3rd member assembly ordered from Randys which included Grizzly locker and 5.29 ring and pinion. Stainless steel brake lines. Less than a 1,000 miles on rear. Driven approximately 100 miles a year. No issues...

I am in Mullica Hill, NJ which is exit 3 of the turnpike. Add me to your contact list when you do runs this year.

You guys up and running?

I noticed a bunch of you went to Cruise Moab last year and drove and/or towed your trucks. I am also in NJ and would like to get my FJ40 towed to Cruise Moab 2013. Can any of you help with this? I am thinking along the lines of a trailer that can tow two or three cars. I have already...
