    Offset is a + or -. So if it's 3.5 that would be + , so 5.5" bs. -3.5 would be 1" bs

    After 2 weeks of seized parts, broken parts, being sent the wrong parts, etc I finally have the truck back on the ground and rolling. What should have been an hour and a half and $150 to lift the truck ended up taking 2 weeks and costing about $1100 buy the time I bought new parts, tools, and consumables. Bright side is the 2" lift is in and I have brand new TC UCAs and new sway bar links. Also took the time to zinc and powder coat parts while I had them off the truck so I wont have to deal with rust again there. The only thing left is for me to decide if I want to stop being lazy and powder coat my wheels before mounting the tires, or if I should just leave them silver and run it.

    Not NEARLY as much as washing a weight off in a mud hole or just losing a few because the glue melted in 100 degree heat (like mine did)

    A small piece of duct tape won't weigh as much as a little bit of road dirt on the tires....

    Picked up the 07 Off Road yesterday after leaf spring replacement so took it for a short ride on mountain gravel roads. After the rear diff and front wheel bearing replacement and the new springs, it's almost a different truck

    Replaced stock front mud flaps on the 14 Sport with Weathertechs and had planned to change the oil but it's too damn hot. So, with the AC running, I played with Torque Pro and OBD Link to see if they are any better than the Scanguage.

    So I decided to do this, smacked the exhaust tip 3 times and didn't want to smash it into the rear corner panel. Also met thi guy on his way to FJ Summit with an absolutely beautiful Freedom Red diesel FJ60.
