I wanna see this FJ-40 when you get it back from Iron Pig.
No problem. As soon as I get it here I will let you know.
Nice 60.
That would be great to check out some trails around the area. I'm out right now and won't be back until November though. I'd also like to check out your rig in person, I'm thinking of doing the bedliner sides like yours.

Sounds good to me bro. I did the Herculiner in my driveway. Cost me about 100 bucks! hahaha ... It's probably almost 1/4 inch thick and will hold up to pretty much anything.
It would be really cool, to get a few rigs to meet up and follow each other around a little bit. I could make a little map up. Sounds kind of corny, but I know it would be fun.

I'm thinking of like a sonic. Like everyone else does.
I should be able to make it. Are we talking an early in the day meet and possible trail ride? Or just hanging out? I'm cool with whatever.
Two Saturdays of Wrench-a- thon
Me and mikedamageinc spent two Saturdays wrenching at NAS Oceana's Auto Hobby Shop. On Saturday (11/22/08) first, we had a Starbucks Coffee to start the day, then we headed to the hobby shop to do the wrenching on Mike's truck.
Once we got there, we went straight to one of the stall, then we proceeded to drop the PS side front control arm first to press out the old OME bushings by using the 55-ton hydraulic press, we pressed-in brand spanking new OEM bushings he bought from CDAN. Once the PS arm was done and re-installed back on the truck, then we did the same thing with the DS control arm. Once both arms were completed, we then proceeded to grinding/cutting off the metal tabs on the front axle to mount the new Slee Caster plates he bought from Slee.
What took us longer in doing this wrenching was the pressing out/pressing in both OME and OEM bushings and the grinding of metal tabs to facilitate the installation of the new Slee Caster plates.
Pic #1. Mike's positioning the control arm to press the OME bushings while I snap pictures.
Pic #2. mikedamageinc cleaning the control arm bushing holes to press-in the OEM bushings he bought from Cdan
Pic #3. He's grinding the metal tabs on DS front control arm to install the Slee Caster Plates.
