Hi all: I've been lurking here for a while and have received much good advice through that, but here's one I couldn't find by searching:
My 1987 FJ60 has OME heavy duty suspension, installed in the fall of 2001. I live in Mongolia, and about 80% of my driving is very rough off-road. Not rock crawling, but lots of 30-50 MPH over dirt tracks, washboard, large gravel, etc.
I noticed recently that the u-bolts in the rear are bent. Is this a problem, or should I ignore it until something fails? Attached is a photo. The front ones look OK still.
Thanks for any and all advice. Cruiser mechanics are a little scarce in Ulaanbaatar.
