    Speedo Calibration - Golden Switch?

    Thanks! For some reason I thought someone in the group told me there was a factory switch that would adjust it but doing searches on mud it looks like its the Yellow box.

    Speedo Calibration - Golden Switch?

    Hey folks, hope things are well. I vaguely recall a post around a switch setup in an FZJ80 that would calibrate the speed odometer for larger tires. I think someone called it a golden switch? I did a search but couldn't seem to find anything on it. Anyone recall if this is possible OR do...

    Rear Bumper Options

    I followed the instructions and cut mine off at an angle just behind the right rear tire. I'll see if I can get under there soon and post up some photos.

    Rear Bumper Options

    I ordered mine in late Aug-2020 and got it by mid Nov-2020. There was a slight delay due to a bearing (avid told me about this prior to my order) but other then that everything went smoothly. I did pick mine up vs. having it shipped.

    Rear Bumper Options

    Thank you for all the suggestions. This week I had a good chat with Brandon at AVID and I decided to go with his product. I'll post up some pics after I install it.

    Rear Bumper Options

    I've been looking at a few rear bumper options for my '96 FZJ80 and I'm really digging the one by AVID (see links below). I've also looking at a few others. Besides the ones listed blow are there any others I should be looking at? ** Update Jul-2021 - I choose the AVID Bumper, ordered in...

    Thanks for the tip... Have you personally used this product? If so how's it holding up.

    Coating an Exhaust Pipe

    I'm replacing my CATS and the steel is very raw. I live in Snow country and just don't want them to rust up. I was wondering if anyone has a recommended coating or spray to cover the CATS before I install them.
