    It does offer more clearance than stock, but more importantly it can handle being repeatedly dragged over rocks or small Hondas.

    hey Jason, did you manage to buy the Landcruiser in the background of your shop picture? Great deal if you did! Someone is going to get to enjoy a very well built and maintained work of art.

    Unfortunately I'm not in the market for another Land Cruiser, but if I was that would be the one I'd buy. I'm helping John try to sell it by having it in the Lower Mainland to make it easier for folks to come check it out. It sounds like you're familiar with this truck, and yes it would be a fantastic rig for anyone looking for a truck built and maintained by a perfectionist.

    Here's a link to the For Sale thread on IH8MUD.com http://forum.ih8mud.com/other-vehic...90-hzj73-vx-extremely-clean-built-locked.html

    WOW, great work Jason on that rear bumper! I have seen your work on some of the cruisers around Calgary and very very impressed with your work.

    Those sliders are a thing of beauty, just wish they were around a few years ago when did sliders.
