WTB - FZJ80 Third Members...I daily my 95 (non-Elocker) and would like to regear my diffs but I don't want to be out a vehicle for longer than necessary. Does anyone have a front or rear (or both) third members they'd be willing to sell me or loan out? I know loan out sounds funny but I'd...

I would not do the state park if you only have one day. Especially a short day in the winter. If you’ve never done the national park before check it out and prepare to drive as much of it as possible as the park is huge.

I originally had 269Vs in the rear and they were great riding around town with no weight, but when I loaded up with my canvas tent and ice chest the rear end would sag and I would be riding on the bump stops. I moved to 223V springs and they solved my issue.

I got my Whiteline rear bar installed yesterday and it is a major improvement over the stock bar. I ordered direct from Whiteline Performance and it arrived in less than a week with free shipping. The ends of the bar are now coming rounded so no modifications were needed when installing. I’m...

Oof. I put 175k on my Tacoma with no cc. Never again. The LED tail lights are otherwise straight plug and play.

Yes, 315/75r16 BFG KO2. Taillights are LED and I’m happy with them. You’ll need to run some resistors to keep your cruise control working, otherwise it will come out of cruise every time you use your blinker. These did the trick for me. I have mine mounted to the D pillar.

I even washed it!

The metal tube need to be shortened and the metal cup needs to be trimmed to clear the coils. The rubber compresses around 2.25" before it bottoms out so it's more of a progressive bump compared to a hard stop like the factory rubber.

I'll get a current unloaded photo later and I'll post it up.

I'll add to this one. I'm currently running C59-222V and C59-223V springs with IMS shocks. I have an Ironman front bumper, Badlands winch with steel cable, DIY sliders, DIY tire and gas can swingouts, Landtank 2.5 caster correction plates, an Eimkeith rear panhard lift bracket, factory...

I've got the Icon ratchets and extensions. They are a lot nicer than my old Craftsman Professionals.

Harbor freight 3/4" breaker bar with a hi lift jack handle cheater ftw. The Pittsburgh 3/4" torque wrench is good to go for this job as well.

We use Striking when certified welding is required. No idea if they will take a small repair job though. https://strikingprecisionwelding.com/

What is the diameter of the spindle that the spare tire is riding on....looks under sized for the application if I'm being honest. I don't comment much but I would be terrified if I saw that in front of me on I35.

The City of San Marcos has a free hazardous dropoff as well. It's across 80 from the big HEB. It's only open a couple days a week and you need to show proof of residence.
