    keep your suspension and wheels and just swap them to the new Fj :p
    I was in the same spot as you...Ditched my prerunner for the 4x fj. Night and day. Just test drive one before you get too serious though. I thought it was way different from driving the tacoma. :thumbsup:

    Thanks Fred
    I am glad those guys got out to snap some pics of us.
    I used rustoleum satin black. Gold can with a trigger style sprayer. Stuff is great and has held up just fine w/out using primer or adhesion promoter. Just scuffed the wings with a scotch pad, cleaned with alcohol and sprayed them. Plenty of scratches from the trails, but no chipping,fading or bubbling.
    Best of luck to you. get that sht done! you will wonder why you didn't do it sooner!:p

    yupp
    did mine awhile back. I did Jack's but I have no idea why i did what I did...
    snipped the wire, spliced in a ground and connected both ends of the original wire + the ground wire. Jacks check engine light came on :anonymous:
    realized what the problem was 2 minutes after it occured. pulled the wire harness and fixed the problem. (snip original wire and ground the side going into the plug *only*) :p

    Enjoy the locker anytime mod. I use it all the time where 4wd isn't necessary but the extra traction helps + gets rid of all the traction nanny's :laugh:

    It should. I would double check with All Pro though. I think the only difference is something with the Remote Res mount, but Jonny found a way around that. I didnt know you had the AP LT kit

    Well boys, I have left the club. I couldn't fight the withdrawals any longer...

    I've been gone for a couple years. Got rid of this beauty for a 350Z. Probably the worst decision I've ever made.

    That is a sick Subaru. I always wanted one, but I would want to rally it and I would just see way too much trouble with that.
