No, it is a 6 lug as well.

 

I’ve never seen a FJ cruisers with 5 lugs, later Tundras and Fj100’s yes!

 

That’s what I get for trusting the Google.



I deleted my original incorrect post.

 

Funny, I am looking at the picture of the aluminum 6 lug wheel, 17in with a Blizzak winter tire on it. Description says, Toyota wheels 6x5.5 or 6x139.7. He said they used to on his FJ Cruiser. Bottom line, they will fit my Tacoma sport?
139.7 will fit 139?
According to google, they say you should go with the correct size when purchasing wheels, to ensure proper fit and reduce the chance they may loosen while driving. Does .7 make that big a difference?

I have to drive a couple hours to get these things, hence my questions.

 

They are the same and will work. The trd beadlocks came on both Tacoma and Fj cruiser in 2014
6 on 139.7-mm. (6 on 5.5-in.) bolt circle is 99% of the Toyotas 4x4’ with 6 hole/lug from the earliest Land Cruisers in the 50’s . 2024’s have a different /smaller hub hole size I think I read.

 

Pre-winter scrub down and rubdown.

 

Loaded up a bit over a half tonne of leaves and nuts from our house (and a set of chains) and took them to our lake property. Working on creating a deciduous, fire resistant, forest around the cabin.

Halloween only a few more days away for the ... Princess, Wonder Woman, Bee, ...?

 

Tiresize.com should help with this question.

 

I believe so.

Good idea. The way BC is burning up these days you never know. In nature that’s a natural fire break. In our forest industry the pursuit of monoculture is making things worse. Spraying glyphosate on Deciduous trees is not helping matters either.

 

Had the OTT done on my truck Saturday. Drove it the last two days and it has transformed the truck. All of the videos and posts are accurate. It solves most of the throttle and shifting problems. I'll take it on a long drive next weekend to Nor Cal and that will be a true test. I need to drive some inclines. I'm in So Cal and I met Quoc. Nice guy, great service and I can't recommend this mod enough.

 

Just had the OTT tune done to my truck as well. So much nicer to drive. This how the truck should have came from the factory. I went with Lite for every day driving and mild on the ECT. What did you go with?

 

I got mild & spicy on the ect. Reminds me of my 2nd gen power in mild, and occasionally enjoy ect.

 

I wanted to go with mild and medium but didn't want to spin on the ice all the time leaving lights due to the way the throttle hits now.

 

Yes. 139 and 139.7 are just different degrees of precision in converting the "real" dimension of 5.5 inches. The wheels are interchangeable.

 

What kind of hoist system do you use? I use the Harken hoist. Works great so far, but curious to know what good experiences people have with others. Thanks!

 

Ha, why didn’t I think of that?

 

Mine is one I built about 15 years ago. It uses a Harbor Freight electric hoist (similar model linked below) that is mounted to the wall above the garage door and pullies and rope mounted to the ceiling towards the back of the garage. I have safety chains hooked to the top once it is hoisted up so the weight isn't on the hoist.

Here is a rough drawing of it. I will do similar for the RTT but probably just use a manual crank winch since its pretty light. Looking up the Harken Hoist, it is exactly the same concept, but added an electric winch. I got the hoist on sale for $80 when I bought it. It was also the 880lbs hoist, that I don't see anymore.
