Wish I could run long tube headers but they're not compliant with emissions here. For the NST pulleys, why not the crankshaft too? What type of tuner are you using with OE ECU?

Tread width is almost always 1" less than section width. The difference is not much between a true MT which may have higher depth on some manufacturers using 21/32 tread blocks but those are worn down after some miles. I'd just go with the tire you prefer instead of overthinking about 1/4" of...

Hitting the mall

All of them can work with diff drops. You'll just need to run ~5/8" spacers if it is a high clearance model. You'll need to make sure your diff drop or the skid company includes the spacers. I know Bud Built does if you request them. But they only do steel. Your options are several...

Kind of an old thread from last year but 10mm won't help you in real situations. It's nice for numbers and I get you want to save your CV for running longer strut but consider limit straps at about 20mm before full extension. It'll save your components unnecessary stress on full droop. If the...

Interesting. Thanks for sharing @BMThiker . I was test driving a friend's FJrig and had issues downshifting as soon as I was merging in traffic. I thought it was the gate cover getting hung up but symptoms ring similar to yours. Will definitely share these results with him.

Been prostituting my FJ. You can follow along on IG: james_newwin james_is_downtownfotos At Johnson Valley Corner of Bama Hills and Rodeo Drive Mandatory at TOTW

I have a couple good friends with land cruisers and have met many cool LC owners along the way. Never have I met any one pretentious enough to tell me that my FJ was not part of the land cruiser heritage (until the internet that is). The fact that people would make an argument based on a few...

Here's one more of the radio that I found. I Think it's the 8.5" screen that Joying offers. I hear the 10" would fit too with some trimming. My exterior looks like every other '07 silver out there lol.

Went with a Joying android unit. Super happy with aftermarket. It took me a bit to figure out the settings but after that's handled, everything has been cherry. My expandable memory and bluetooth work great for music, while passengers are happy when I put on a movie or youtube videos for them...

Look for the grease ball joint. Or check the description for the updated ball joint with the zirk fitting. I'm pretty sure it's been about a year since they updated that part so if you buy new, shouldn't be an issue

I agree with many of the sentiments here. Just replying with my experience swapping to 3.5 LT. 1. Spare CVs are no longer free from a buddy or 80 bucks at NAPA. $$$ just to have functional 4wd. This is probably the more expensive parts if considered for machined parts since it's recommended to...
