    For Sale San Diego - 5, 16 inch rims with 295/75/16 Nitto Terra Grappler Tires

    They should, yes. Do you have factory wheels now? These measure 33 in diameter. I took them off of my series 80, that has a 3-in lift. They fit perfectly in there.

    Hi guys - 5, 16 inch rims with 295/75/16 Nitto Terra Grappler Tires. 2 of the tires are NEW, the other 3 have less than 1000 miles on them, and have been on the truck one year. Love to find a home for them. $700 sound fair? 6 x 5.5, 3.75 backspace. Dave 858 204 2886

    Cooling issues with CSF 2517 - what temp does your rig's A/C shut off?

    Hi all, Thank you very much for all the advice given. Loads of info, thanks. After more troubleshooting, and stiffening the silicone in the fan clutch, we finally replaced with a Koyo Aluminum core radiator. Now, the truck is totally back to normal. Still, it baffles me, why the copper...

    FZJ80 Sun visor

    HI Guys, I went to the Rosin see thru visors. Couldnt be happer that I did this. Expensive, but cheaper than the factory visors. If you decide to go this way and call them, remind them of the group buy that was done earlier. They matched it, if I remember correctly, about half off.
