@wngrog great ad. Great truck. No luck needed on sale. Your photography hobby, knowledges of these trucks, and patina process REALLY shine through!

I love the few idiot comments on the snorkel that you fully explained. Why people feel a need for pushing the look they like by degrading your choices is beyond me.

excited to see this one go.

 

[wngrog]

I like how he called it a classic. Yeah maybe if it was not put together with 4 different pigs …..

Congrats sir, looks like it made a good showing.

 

[wngrog]

Thank you. The new owner did not know what an FJ55 was 7 days ago but got it figured out.

I happen to know where there are 4 trucks to make another one if you need them. I’ll even give you the Tuckers special price .

 

[wngrog]

I’m over pigs for a while. Thanks for the offer.

Let's hope he can appreciate it for what it is.

Hmmm... I think I have a can of machine grey around the shop

 

[jynx]

I mean, they're not city racer 16s, but im thinking these are gonna look right nice on the old moose.

Just 3 more to go...

Motivation to sweat my balls off and finish the other 3..

Before: old school km1 31x10.50 on what I can only guess is an 8" wagon wheel. Measured right at 30" tall and 34" to fender

After: 33x10.50 km3 on what I think is also an 8" steel wheel of some kind. Measured 31.5" and 35" to fender.

I ran across @wngrog 's thread about the 33x10.50 Razr he put on the warthog and it got me curious. These do seem a little taller than the same km3 he had mounted at 30.5". I also need to do some research and figure out what bushings I need to get the lift springs I have bolted up.

Project ADD sucks. So many rings that need doing and... squirrel

Dinky ass tire for a 33.

 

[jynx]

Agree. It's very interesting to me how manufacturers are allowed to market the way they do. The 33x10.50 generals on the 60 wheels that we bolted onto the 4Runner are a solid 32"+. I was a little worried when I first sized them up before swapping them. I need to measure then and see what they are.

I don’t know what your overall goal is, but if you may end up having any available, I need one 33x10.50x15 KM3.

I do have an extra I think. I will check and let you know.

That'd be GREAT! Thanks much!
