    UCA's needed for 1.75" lift? If so, JBA?

    I lifted my GX via Old Man Emu Struts + Springs only and everything was fine. A few months later I installed some aftermarket UCA's and had rubbing at half turn that I could never get rid of without adjusting the alignment way out of whack. That lasted about a few months before I bought new OEM...

    New UCA puts my tire right at the frame... help

    Stock Lexus wheels at the moment. I was wondering if I could move the wheel forward/back - so I'll have to fiddle around with those cam bolts. I'm glad I bought new ones since the originals were so incredibly rusty. Body mount chop - I need to saw off part of the body mount there that's in the...

    New UCA puts my tire right at the frame... help

    I feel like I haven't done anything out of the ordinary here. I put in an Old Man Emu 2" life (Shock + Coils) several months ago, installed some 285/70/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, and then did some fender trimming. I was able to get my full crank to crank turning radius. Over the weekend I put in...

    All things Towing thread, weight, trailer type, etc..

    I'm just down the canyon from you in Orem, and picked up a little 3100# dry camper a few weeks back. Took it out for a quick weekend and now it's winterized on the side of my house. I am going to Goblin Vally in Feb and Hwy 6 makes me nervous but your post just gave me some confidence that I'll...

    Builds OKADVENTURES GX470 Build

    I have that leak. It drives me nuts when I have the windows down. I also have a 2008 that I picked up a year ago. It's such a great car, you're gonna love it! I also recently (finally) took of my running boards and bought the Blue Dog Designworks Molding and they look great. I've got an OME 2.5"...

    Old Nan Emu springs with OEM adjustable shocks

    If you want a simple inexpensive lift you're better off going with a spacer lift that just goes above the stock strut and will give you 1.5-2" of lift. I don't think just adding the OME springs alone is going to do anything for you with the stock struts. That said - ditch the ride control. It's...

    Neep help on valuation - 2008 GX470

    I just bought an '08 with 122,000 at auction for $13,300. $26K is way overpriced and impossible to get a loan for unless you're putting 50% down.

    '71 FJ40 Brake conversion

    Hey! Just wrapping up the JT Outfitters 4 wheel conversion on my 1972, I was a little intimidated at first, but it wasn't too bad. I did all 4, I don't want to deal with drums ever again.

    1972 Brakes - Separate Spindle from Drum Backing

    Ah, two more bolts?! I did not know there were more bolts to be removed. That would explain why it wouldn't budget when I was trying to smack it off. Thank you AZMoonshadow

    1972 Brakes - Separate Spindle from Drum Backing

    Hey all - I'm working on installing a Disc Brake conversion on my 1972 FJ40 and am trying to take off all the old Drum stuff, but I seem to be stuck with the backing plate and the spindle. Do they separate from each other? They seem pretty stuck together but I think I need just the spindle for...

    Electric Fuel Pump on June 1972 FJ40

    Trying to bring an old rig back to life - the manual fuel pump is dead, but I have a little electric that I will use. Can you help me figure out which hose I need to put this into? I crawled under and it seems like A is hooked up to the metal hose that runs up to the engine block, but I want to...
