Well that, but it's also a back up in case you break a main leaf. It should help to keep the axle in place longitudinally.
What did you do with your 60 this weekend? (2 Viewers)

If there's a military wrap only on one end and main leaf breaks on the other end how is it going to keep things in place?

I'm thinking of hiking Mt. Huron via Lulu gulch tomorrow. Can you drive all the way up to point 12622?

It looks like the highest you can get is ~11,600, even with an FJ60.
Here's a link to a topo map:
BTW, my wife and I did the Northwest Slopes Route quite a few years ago.
Little gator hunting last night. Got to ride some good trails on the way to the pond with some good buddies.
I broke my ankle and had surgery to retrofit it with some hardware. Right shoulder is also screwed up so me and crutches are not doing well. There are two steps up from the attached garage to the house. My wife went home before the hospital released me to scope out a way to get me up those stairs without me busting something else
In the garage sat the FJ60. It carries a set of old school perforated aluminum planking sand ladders. She offloaded the sand ladders, scrounged up some 2x4 scraps and built a ramp up the stairs with the aluminum sand ladders.
Then she bought a wheel chair. Her improvised ramp and the wheel chair allowed me to get in the house without tearing the new ankle hardware loose.
That's my girl - using her head to improvise and do a human recovery with vehicle recovery gear.
I'm glad she did not use the winch and snatchblocks for this task.

Perfect 3 Day weekend for this swap. Bought the Premium Holley Sniper Kit from "Mosley Motors" Great Kit High Quality parts and Accessories.
I had the services of a good friend to help with the electrical bits. Electrical anything intimidates the hell out of me. So the intent was to get it done in a day.
We did, it was a good 11 hrs. of quality wrench time. I didn't document a damn thing just a pic of the after. I'll need to hook up a return spring and do a little pedal adjustment. Biggest difference right out of the gate is throttle response! for now it'll be drive and adjust, let the unit learn. 100% satisfied.

Got rid of all that rust that likes to hide on the cowl this weekend, One thing more off the check list!
Finished the bezel...I dig...!!!
Color match was not perfect, but pretty darn close... (Rust-Oleum 350373 Satin Charcoal Gray)
There is another Satin Charcoal Gray that I wanted, but was hard to find (342061)
I think that would have been a closer match
The knob on the vent/heat/deff was a perfect fit (55905-89110), and I kind of like it better than the OEM
