Powerstop does indeed offer an OEM replacement rotor and ceramic pad kit for the 80 series fronts. It is PN KOE1154. I found that Summit Racing has a better price than Amazon. Summit has the KOE1154 for $115.97. Free shipping. I have used the Powerstop rotors and pads on the wife's LX470. They work well. I'd say they are just as good as OE pieces.
Wow - you're well on your way to a white locked FZJ for what must be a great total $$$!
I'm a fan of the grey too - far easier to still source decent interior parts.
More power to you!
A couple of local club members hooked me up with the owner of a wrecked '97 80 series truck with the factory Elockers. I struck a deal with him for $500 and trailered it home. It will donate its locking axles to Cotton. The parts truck was involved in an off-road rollover and was featured in the "Whoops" section of an issue of 4wd Magazine. Whoops! Chop It? The engine has already been scavenged. None of the doors open. I'm pretty sure I will have to cut off the top to be able to access the interior goodies (if they aren't all too nasty to save). The owner said that he rebuilt the knuckles 200 miles before the accident so I am hoping to swap the front axle in as a complete unit and rock on. I may do the same for the rear, but I'm not sure.

-Sanded, primed, painted and cleared the wheel center caps.
Can you please explain how you did this and what you used? The oxidation drives me crazy!
Thanks!!
It is kind of hard to tell. Are you seats brown or gray? Most pictures look brown but then you mention gray pain and a shot of the rear looks gray in one picture.
