thanks! I dont have anything right now so it swings all willy nilly around if on a hill. I have enough vertical space to use the labs strut but never got around to ordering it. i'll probably add it at some point. I guess flying out is only good if they stop, but i understand the pushing it in...
Do you have the angled bracket that attaches from the body mount to the wing? my brother has a 4x4labs that I welded together and it has never had any issue of the wing moving. Granted I built his and he never tows anything, but tossing a trailer on a 60 with C chanel frame doesn't really sound...
Lol was he an engineer??
I don’t know what lift you’re running but toss the correction bushings and go back to oem and get some castor plates from land tank.
Do you have any knowledge of structural design or strength of materials? Because as an engineer, I’d say I would never want to drive anywhere close to that car if you don’t. Why not just buy delta arms at that point and save yourself a lot of trouble...
There's always a bunch of georgia people who head up there. stlca does a good job of having milder rides and then some more moderate stuff (not sure how into wheeling the 40 you are). Pretty sure they have something at the pavilion that says what the trails they are going on the day before then...
Name: Aidan
Cruiser(s): 1997 FZJ80 (used to be daily driver until about 2 months ago, now weekend driver); 2013 URJ200 (Current daily driver)
Favorite Trail: probably trail 60 and the rocky trails around at Windrock
why not use the money you'd use on getting a shop to do all this stuff to get some good tools and do it yourself. Removing AHC, lifting, installing bumpers require nothing special other than some hand tools and you'll gain some knowledge of the car in the process. Engine work is more detailed...
yeah I don’t remember the full process but I believe there was a thread on doing it somewhere. I bought the switch and basically pulled the steering wheel (if you’ve got airbags do this part correctly) and started tearing down the front lower dash. It really was a pretty easy process but you’ll...
I think the misinformation part might be on your end from not understanding both backspacing and offset. All the wheels we were talking about have 4.5 in backspacing but each has different offset which changes where the position of the tire is. Which is why 80 alloys (4.5 backspace, 0 offset)...
Bro it’s cool i’m not the mud police or anything. Post whatever. The wheel specs are above which is literally the only thing needed out of a thread like this
cool. The OP was asking about fj cruiser steelies so i don't know why this thread is littered with non steelies information. Fj cruiser steelies are +15mm offset which is inset that amount which is why true sized 37s rub on the radius arms. 80 stock alloys are 0 offset which is why yours (and...
both 80 series alloys and fj cruiser steelies are 4.5 backspacing and with true sized 37s you'll run into issues with rubbing on radius arms on steering lock to lock. when I had the fj cruisers with my MTRs they rubbed like crazy on the radius arms but i attribute that to the MTRs being so big...
you’ll have to go through eBay. There’s two sellers one in Cali and the other in like Latvia. But I’d assume either would be able to get those if it’s possible. Seems like the best bet since even used headlights are still expensive.
Or just buy the depos since stock headlights suckkk
