any advice on wheel spacer thickness? Front wheels rubbing on springs when turning.

Just recently purchased my 1975 FJ40 and I've been troubleshooting some steering issues. She wanders and shimmies severely on rough roads. I've been reading about it and I'm thinking caster shims and new leaf spring bushings. Thoughts? The FJ has a SOA conversion on stock springs and inversion...

So I’ve had this 1986 FJ60 for eight years. The previous owner did an SOA lift. No cut and turn on the knuckles so she’s all over the road. I want to drop it back down and have a bit of lift yet turn it back into a good driver. The original spring perches are still there so I figure I’ll drop...

Hi everyone, Looking for a little advice on a potential purchase. I'm looking at an FJ60 that has a solid body/frame, normal wear and tear on the interior but definitely in need of a bit of love. Mechanically, the thing is a beast: SOA, extended Bilsteins, 35" tires, re-arched springs, air...

So been reading lots of great information on this site and figured I'd better join and start a build thread. I bought a 1982 BJ60 a couple years ago bone stock. Was my daily and it was great. However the body was in really rough shape and I have a new daily so it's time to turn the 60 into a...

Hey all, I'm looking for some information about doing a Spring Over Axle conversion for a 78' FJ40. I'm pretty new at all of this, and looking to help my dad switch from stock 40 axles to 80 axles. The axle conversion doesn't seem too hard to do, however, I am looking at doing a SOA conversion...

I have read a lot on here about the Spring Over Axle. The majority list it as one of the top 5 mods for the FJ. I also know people that have done many and say that it made it ride worse and they switched back. My question to the crew is... why do you all love SOA? Is it just the chassis...
