I would lean towards the hood hinge to keep the lights closer to the windshield. I’m pumped you’re making these, I’ve been hoping someone would make these for a while!
I have an 87 FJ60, if you need someone else with a newer one I'd be willing to take pics and do a write up. If not, I look forward to eventually buying one of these. They look Awesome!
I took @HemiAlex 's advice.
Front 33-230368 360/80 valving for an arb bumper and winch up front.
Rear 33-185606 255/70 valving.

Pardon my ignorance but would swapping to a gm 1-1/8" MC with the Sky adapter on a stock system be any benefit? Running 33's and pretty loaded down...
Or should I just pony up for the whole swap?
I'd love to see this documented. I have some of the same problems with mine and I'm in Oklahoma... Apparently they had a bad batch go out with bad powdercoat and incorrectly sized hitch receivers. I had to file mine to take a hitch or bike rack and have to use a lot of grease or it gets stuck...
Big fan of your work and your posts on here. I'm looking at doing that to my interior soon. In your opinion, how does fat mat compare to like a lizard skin coating?
