I have been running them for 3 years now
Get 5.29s, as someone with 4.88s and 35s it’s still pretty gutless.Just got some 37" Mickey Thompson Baja Boss MT's installed on some Icon 17" wheels. I really need to install my 4.88's now. lmao.
Already getting some rubbing on the front tires, rear part of the wheel well. Maybe need to do the Delta long arms?

Do you have any issues with clearance on these? I feel like I would be scraping them. I guess if it is still higher up than my slider I should be ok?I ran these with my 37s and was happy with them.

One of my goals for our FZJ80 is to keep a relatively low frame height while maintaining as much up-travel as I can. I'm pursuing this in stages; first a 50mmeimkeith.com
if you're worried about them hanging lower you can always go with these: 80 Series DIY Front Axle Relocation Kit FJ80 FZJ80 Land Cruiser - https://redlinelandcruisers.com/shop/80series/3f-e-1991-1992-80-series/80-front-axle-relocation-kit/ which just move the axle forward and don't correct for casterDo you have any issues with clearance on these?

Not going to make it this yearTypical Richard! You're a smooth operator man. Will you be at Rubithon? I'll be there, but as a passenger riding with Brian.
IMO it would only be an issue backing up and only hard core rock crawling.Do you have any issues with clearance on these? I feel like I would be scraping them. I guess if it is still higher up than my slider I should be ok?
No, I didn't have any issues at all with them. I have a Trail Taylor crossmember, and I hit that more than the RAMs. I am/was on a shorter spring than you, but they brought my caster back to where it drove a lot nicer also. I had stock arms and bushings still.Do you have any issues with clearance on these? I feel like I would be scraping them. I guess if it is still higher up than my slider I should be ok?
My Trail Tailor skid plate almost never gets hung up on rocks, except when i was on Fordyce Winchhill 4 (might just be a bad line i took....the only thing on my 80s constantly needs replacing is the extended rear sway bar end links. Switched back to the shorter landtank version and it has never been a problem since. I have also replaced my rear sway bar mounting brackets a few times...for some reasons, my rear swaybar ( i am on my 2nd one) is so bent from crawling now it is completely bent upward and no longer an issue with clearances - problem solved for now....No, I didn't have any issues at all with them.

Ya, your not the first one to have issue !View attachment 3665670
So I picked up a set of Fuel wheels with 37x12.5x17 Maxxis Razr’s. I’m excited to have 37’s on my 80 BUT the center holes don’t fit over the hubs. They are close, but still too small. Anyone else dealt with this?
BTW, I’m told the have about 5,000 miles on them and they measure 36.6”.
If you're totally in love with the wheels, you can demount the tires and have a machine shop bore out the center holes for you. Otherwise, you're going to have to get a new set and make sure you get something with a large enough bore sizeView attachment 3665670
