First off, when did you buy your FJ? If you bought it after Nov-06 you don't need the hack because it is already programmed in.
I bought mine back in July of last year, I did the hack after my first wheeling trip, the difference when doing a hill climb when you need the traction up front and also want your rear locked is absolutely amazing. I would recommend anyone who needs the hack to do the hack. I have had no problems getting it serviced, most mechanics don't know the difference. Also I have never had a problem with electronics going haywire or anything after doing the Hack. I am also thinking about doing the "Gray" wire hack for my FJ because I like to be able to have the Diff locked in two wheel drive.

my fj was made in july 06 i just got back from moab and it would of been nice to have that mod, also the mod to loc your diffs in 2wd is the other one i wanted to do
I too just returned from Moab, and have been wheeling the bumpers off my FJ since last June. I performed the A-Trac Hack in the link below and it made one heck of a difference. The process is fairly easy, but access is tight and you'll need a really small screw driver to release the blade from the plug.
