    @ramonortiz55 where in the world are you going to put this?? Your tent is already taking up the better part of your living room!! I guess you could put it in your spear bedroom. Might be able to lay it on your bed?? Hahahaha!! Is it already powder coated?


    I myself went CV axel shopping yesterday. I headed up north about an hour and hooked up with @knuckleduster271. I bought two Toyota OEM CV axels off of him...for a fair price. One is in great shape...while the other needs a boot.. Either way...I'm going to send these out and get both rebuilt. So when I pull my original axels (which has 3 of 4 boots torn right now...and I'll be able to just switch them out...therefore no downtime!

    My goal is to re-gearing my Rig here soon. And when I do...I'm figering to just rebuild to complete front end. So I've been slowly buying all new front end parts (inner/outer tie rods, UCA, U/LCA bushings, and ball joints). I've purchased all new OEM Toyota parts when plausible. So when I do re-gear...I'll be able to put on all new parts and then slid in nice fresh axels!! With almost Zero down time. Well..That is if all the moons are lined up correctly and nothing goes wrong...hahahahaha!! Oh well...I have a comple more parts to buy...until then....

    My back end rides like shit. I'm pretty sure it's my Icons that are the problem, but it's cheaper to try different springs than it is to buy new shocks

    The LC's will be softer but the shocks have more of a impact on the ride than the coils usually will. Which ICON's are those?

    They're one of the first versions of 2.5 Icons with Piggybacks. Valved for a 3rd gen 4Runner by Icon, but they have the collapsed and extended length of an FJ.
