    '78 FJ40 needs lockers. I need advice

    I'm sure they're fine, as i said, I don't like the uncertainty. When your wheeling with groups of vehicles you can witness what works and what works better.

    Mr Downey, in my experience from many yrs of east coast wheeling in my 40 and their wheel base. The wheels tend to come off the ground quite often.

    '78 FJ40 needs lockers. I need advice

    Lunchbox/auto lockers have their place. They are cheap and effective. They also are noisy popping and cruching and they change the handling and driving characteristics when installed in the rear. I ran one for yrs in the rear. On hard acceleration they pull hard one way and on deceleration...
