95 FJZ80, I'm a newbie... so be gentle on me. LOL... not new to the cruiser world. Own a FJCruiser. So apologies for not being an expert with FJ80's...

Not sure if this castor arm configuration is legit? That's how it was purchased. I've seen castor plates configuration on rigs, but this is new to me. Again, appears to be 3 in Lift with Springs. Previous owner loved mud... still trying to get yes of mud off the undercarriage. LOL.

That is how it comes from the factory. Also, please don't call FJ Cruisers part of the "Cruiser world".

Welcome to Mud!

It appears that someone tried to make their own version of a Superior Super Flex arm. Can you show us where the other end of the part in question is connected to the truck? What does the other arm look like?

Sorry still new to the cruiser world. lol. Ok my a****** comment is out of the way for the day. haha
 
We need to know the lift you’re on up FR.

It would help too if we/you - knew the brand of caster plates you are running.

Then we all can talk from a tech standpoint.

Get a good look at the first photos posted. There are no castor plates but a bracket welded to the top of the factory axle bracket with another link attached and leading rearward.
 
I assumed he just pointing at the hole with the stick...so, sorry if I missed something.

Thanks - I was on the “throne” w/ the phone, doing a foot-bath & getting ready to clip the toe-claws.

Multi-tasking is BS for me, but at least my foots are exfoliated & trimmed super-pretty like :clap: - my version of “spa time”.

You leave no details to the imagination as usual.
 
The underside looks stock. It also does not look lifted. If it was lifted, the space between the radius arm and the tie rod would be really close. Also, the sway bar up front is still pretty level with the ground.

I had a chuckle a few minutes back.

Mom & Dad are quite rigid Protestant Christians (as am I generally) - but they often eyeroll my candid-ness.
(Thanks God, btw they are still alive & thrive)

But once in a blue moon — they get ‘zapped’ in the funny bone over some relatable shared-life experience :clap:

I dig when I can get a laugh out of Pops, he needs to do it more :lol:
