    Rear Suspension Question: Does a lift result in an offset rear axle?

    We've been replacing rear-end components damaged by a former owner to get the truck straight and level. After replacing a bent trailing arm and a leaking KDSS cylinder ($$$) the alignment tech noticed the rear axle is offset 1" to the side. Factory spec allows for 1/2" with stock...

    Wheeler Offroad "Superbumps" installed.

    So after reading on a few forums about Wheelers Offroad bump stops I found that the part number that fits the FJ Cruiser is also compatible with the LC100/LX470 chassis. Over the LCA there are two positions where you will find the OEM bump stops. You could mount the Wheelers "Superbumps" in all...

    How to align suspension U bolts with bottom plate?

    I'm installing an OME heavy on my FJ62. Rust isn't an issue and everything came off ok. Got the leaf spring shackles and pins in and tightened down, but when I use the jack to compress the spring to line up the bottom plate to the U bolts, they are off. I was able to get one side to go through...

    Rough Country Lift Issues

    On my 11/69 FJ40 the PO installed a 4" Rough Country lift when he swapped in rebuilt axles out of a 77. I knew this was a cheapo lift and the shackle angles were off when I purchased it but the springs still had the stickers on them so I figured they would soften up a bit. I was just happy to...
