    Wheel Offset *Specifically*

    So I seen it off and on here a couple times through the years. During Covid it popped up on Ebay one day when I was just goofing around. BTB had picked it up with plans to build it but after it sitting for awhile they just listed it on Ebay. Well I got lucky imo and stole it. I'd been...

    Wheel Offset *Specifically*

    Vision D Window 84 Wheel 17x8 6x5.5 (6x139.7) Black -12mm Offset So with these on a 35x11.5R17 Nitto they barely grab the leaf spring at full crank. It can probably easily be addressed with extending the turning stop. But with this size for full turning radius a -18 offset would be perfect...

    Wheel Offset *Specifically*

    Thanks I'm going to have to do a deep dive an draw a chart when I go through the process. Planning on running 35"s so I'm either going to have to go crazy offset or do a coilover with linked front. Be nice to keep them factory but oh well. It doesn't take me much to design and layout a linked...

    Wheel Offset *Specifically*

    So I know that everyone endlessly is very clear about 3.25" as the minimum back spacing for clearance especially referring to OE style steel wheels. I'm looking at going to a modern style wheel in a 17" and am trying to nail down offset. From some numbers I found online I'm looking at a +12...

    Well I know it's made it's rounds but it is now in my hands. Thanks to BTB Products for the opportunity of making it available. Haven't decided which direction I'll take it for sure just yet but as I owe my brother a Land Cruise since I totaled his 40 when I was 16 years old, I'm leaning...

    1965 FJ45 LWB Fully Restoed Relisted

    I was young when I had the dash modified and they didn't have all of the nice options that they do today for the OE look a likes. I'm not sure why someone would want a stock bench in a modernized interpretation. I love bench seats as well but not in this configuration. I think there is a lot...

    Anyone want to sell their 45?

    Been trying to sell mine, but I don't think I would rent it for $10k. Finding a 45 for 10k is going to be pretty rough or newer import. $10k is a full paint job these days. They can have mine for $50k and sell it for that or more after.:D Heck if it's in Austin I can even deliver it when...
