Drove mine out on a bunch of summer use only farm roads. Barley got through a few of them, very muddy.

After buying 5 17x7.5 Toyota FJ Cruiser steelies, I got an even better deal on 5 17x7.5 FJ/4Runner wheels (with center caps that fit over the full floating hubs up front!!!)....which ones want to hold the 35s? Also got several 60 watt custom made light bars in that are going to go into the valence where the useless marker lights are.

Just a teaser photo.

Looks like you took my idea from... 5yrs ago and took it to another level!

What roof rack is that?

Its a full yakima roof rack with gutter mounts I fabbed up and installed 6" square flip up LED work lights onto each side.

Installed my antenna/light mounts from yodateq

 

[hamishpotter]

Installed CDL switch. Works. Cut my finger stupidly using leatherman to disconnect factory alarm connectors. Was over caffeinated and in a rush. Lesson learned. Again

Out of curiosity, what is the purpose of this type of CDL Switch vs this one I have?

It's for later model 80s with the updated dash. They didn't come with a CDL switch. The CDL just automatically locks in low range. Installing the switch gives the option to lock the CDL in high range.

 

[LS1FJ40]

Well, there goes that selling point for older 80s over the newer 80s...

 

[rjinga]

I did the same thing and thin realized that they disconnect easily by twisting them off of the plastic mounting thing.
