    Yeah, I think Brandon rubbed but when I did I all I had to do was trim bumper. Pretty hit or miss and very alignment-dependent

    I have a 120 gal propane tank outside hooked up to a Mr. Heater big maxx 50k BTU to keep the first floor of the barn at >45F during the winter. Works mint, the upfront cost sucked but totally worth it. I go through about one tank of propane a year keeping it at 45F and for when i'm working out there. My first floor is completely insulated though as with insulated garage doors.

    FJ wheels are also great with pizza cutters.

    Yeah, I've pretty much resigned myself to cutting, at least the CMC and pinch fold. That's no big deal, it'll give me an excuse to knock the dust off the welder, and plasma cutter.

    The same as T4R wheels correct?

    I'd love a set 17in steelies....backspacing is key though, I'll need to dig.

    It's the amount of stupid out there... it's finally getting to you!

    FJ and 4runner wheels are a perfect fit. They are skinnier and less offset than most aftermarket wheels but more offset than Taco wheels.

    Yeah I figured, its pretty easy. I wish more aftermarket companies made skinnier wheels.

    Roads are awful here - it's a mix of snow and sleet and I didn't see any plows on my way home. One person went off the road and two staties were there.

    This stuff plus 55 MPH wind gusts isn't going to be a good combination for tonight!

    Quite possibly another big weekend coming.

    Allegedly, 16" saturday at waterville valley and another 6-8" on Tuesday

    So I'll probably use my Indy pass days there next lol

    but Apple weather is wildly optimistic but this last weekend it said half of what I actually got so who knows.

    We are getting fuuuuuucked up up here. Power outages overnight probably due to trees/limbs, a foot of real dense snow, and rain/sleet periodically.

    I ain't going anywhere today.

    FJ and T4R are +15 offset on factory steel and alloy wheels, some of the FANCY 4runner wheels might be different, I don't know anything about e.g. the Rock Warrior wheels and stuff, I've seen references to some of the TRD wheels being as low as +4 but as I said, I've never dealt with them.

    If they are getting rid of Belichick, then clean house and start over. Can't be worse than what this season was like to watch.
