So I recently purchased a 89 FJ62 and had two questions that I needed some guidance on.
1.) The previous owner added a SOA lift on the truck but had blown shocks and failed to re-add the sway bars. My question is, what's the good/bad of just adding new factory shocks to the old mounting brackets which are located on the top of the leaf springs directly above the axles on all 4 corners? Is it possible to just re-add the factory sway bars? Ideas if not?
2.) The AC seems just be missing the belt for the compressor and needs a new condensor, from what I am told the coolant was R-12, is it possible to just recharge with R-12 or do I need an upgrade? What's the alternative?
