how self-sufficient of you

 

Not my home

 

Stock fzj80 springs

 

or FJ springs for a little lift.

 

Anyone else got gnarly allergies going on? Fuck me...all the crazy rain storms we had here in CA this winter have made my allergies a living hell this summer

Keep having to take out my contacts because my allergies particularly effect my eyes, I'm this close to shelling out a few grand to get laser surgery done

 

I don't remember if I posted this or not. Started to clean up my mustang wheels, some stuff won't come off but they still look much better

 

Can usually get em for like whatever shipping cost is, at least for the stock FZJ80 rears.

 

I wake up every morning unable to breath out of one nostril. After I shoot some flonase up there and get moving all is good. Considering that the southeast is always claimed to be the worst area for allergies, Id say Im doing pretty good.

 

Meant to say FJ Cruiser.


If I were you, Id join on yotatech.com. They have a huge cult following of 3rd gen T4R's over there, moreso than 4Runners.com imo.

 

I use Afrin sometimes (or the generic storebrand), it works REALLY well to clear your sinuses but I didn't heed the warning on the label that you shouldn't use it more than 2 - 3 times a week. I used it daily for months because it was the only thing that worked, next thing I know it stopped working and without it my sinuses were 100x worse. Sucked so bad lol, I was stuffed up like crazy for 2 weeks while I weaned my sinuses off the stuff.

I absolutely cannot sleep if I can't breathe out of my nose, which is why I used it so often

 

I remember Yotatech back in it's glory days when I had my '99 Prerunner...it was like the Tacomaworld of it's time (circa 2005-ish). Then the owner sold it off a few years after I stopped going on there and now it's chock full of ads and pop ups, and pretty much a ghost town compared to what it was.

A lot of really good info in there though if you search through the old threads

 

Afrin destroys sinuses over time lol. Ive been using Flonase for a few years, no problems. Sometimes Ill take a claritin or whatever during spring to back it up but not always.

Dont come to NC from March-October. Youll die. All my out of state friends hate it here because of the horrible allergies.

 

I bet...I would get destroyed every time we visited Missouri in the Spring/Summer as a kid.

I take Claritin during the day too, the stuff with psuedo-ephedrine (not that fake over the counter crap) that you get from the pharmacist directly. The kind you get put on a DEA watch list for if you buy too much of it. Only stuff that works well

 

It is slow with ads but sorta worth it if your on a desktop. I tried to get in the other day, but couldnt remember my password or even the email I used. I could spend hours going through those build threads.

 

If you’re not lifting it I don’t see why you can’t get cheap 3rd part springs from eBay.

 

Also, the Toyota related news feed they have now is cool. Seperate from the forum so not so many ads. https://www.yotatech.com/

 

Yes. I’ve gone through two Costco sizes packages of tissues in the past month. Have to take a Zyrtec everyday.

 

FJ cruiser coils. Gives 2-3" I believe but could be 1", not sure. Either way they can be had for cheap on the used market.

 

Send em to Dan

 

I'm already a bad enough influence on him, he doesn't need to see how cool it is to have a project car too. But he's gonna cause I'll be up there soon with it haha
