    How much weight can this take?

    I am going to check mine; I think at least what I will do is add some grade 8 nuts behind them. I have another plan just for peace of mind; if I can get it done I will post it. How hard is it to get the step-plate off of the rear cross-member?

    How much weight can this take?

    What my brain just cannot get past is the leverage. If you were using just a pintle mount and ring, then the weight of a trailer would be almost all downward on all 4 bolts. But with this setup you're turning it into something similar to a boom arm hanging sign and cable problem, and the...

    How much weight can this take?

    Excellent ideas. I will see if there is enough room to get a grade 8 (or class 10.9 I think?) nut up behind there for extra safety. That and seeing about shortening the basket arm somehow to get it as close to the bumper as possible. OR...skip the cargo basket and just get one of those little...

    How much weight can this take?

    I am going by the listed weight, I think from either amazon or pelican. Could be less. But that cooler is bulletproof. Built like their cases. I've been happy with it.

    How much weight can this take?

    Current thinking among some folks I've asked is that the frame threads that the top 2 bolts are screwed into will shear and that will be how it will fail. Unknown is what weight this will occur at. I'm leaning toward getting a Slee bumper setup that I've been meaning to do for a while.

    How much weight can this take?

    Need help with speakers for a 1992 FJ80

    Uhh, what are coaxial speakers? :confused: Haha, I don't really need an answer to that as I can google it myself, but that is about my level of knowledge on car stereo stuff. Definitely lots of information to sort through so far :hhmm: so many thanks to all. One question: is my 10-speaker...

    Need help with speakers for a 1992 FJ80

    I want to update the stereo system from factory stock for this 1992 that I bought last October. It is amazing the head unit works as well as it does (I can still play CDs) but the sound is pretty weak and some of the speakers are scratchy and distorted. So I just want to update it to a modern...
