    Lets do it! Pismo? Camping up somewhere real remote with a wheeling trip attached to it? I'm very open to this one!

    if you wanna just fix the rake and drive it on the street a leveling kit or spacers will do the job, the ride will be the same.

    Same options as tacomas as far as I know...bigger spacer lift will be your cheapest, then probably 5100s, next I'd say OME coils (this sounds like the best option for you), then you have your nicer/expensive coil overs such as icon, fox, etc

    It Was The Coupler timing, Called Up engo, Dude Was Super Helpful And Knew Exactly What I Was Talking About. He Sent Me A Drawing And offered To Walk Me Through It But It Was simple:( So Much Wasted Time Grrrrr. Makes Me Happy To Be Running One Of Their winches If That's Their CS.

    And A Big Thanks To You for The Suggestions!

    I'm Down, I Would Love To Do A Weekend Trip To Lassen, Or Elsewhere.

    I Would Suggest Either OME or bilstein At Least, At Most A Brand New Set Of coilovers, Pick Your Color. What I Did Was Buy A Set Of Used Sway aways And Rebuilt them.

    They'll Hold Up Just Fine, You Have A Tube Bumper Right? Even A Plate Bumper They'll Be Fine.

    X2. If you are worried about the weight get them with a heavier spring rate. Lots of people who run full skids with bumpers and winches do

    Hmm, maybe the 10-13 FJ's mount different, but all the Tacoma shocks mount the same and your FJ is a 07, so you should be more than fine.
