    Looks good man! If you're like some of us you'll be wanting another inch or so in a few months. Haha. You might want to consider MaxTrac spindles down the road if so.

    Just finished installing the ECGS 8" clamshell bushing! I haven't driven very far on it yet, but I can already tell that there's a huge difference. No more noise, no more vibration! After dealing with this vibration and noise since I put my lift on, about 20,000 miles ago, haha, I feel like it's a completely different truck. Here's some quick pics that I took during the install.

    What is this? And what does it do?.... I have chasing down weird vibrations and shakes on my FJ forever. I'm finally to the point where I am about to rebuild the wheel front suspension with brand new parts. Everything from the upper and lower control arm mount out, including new hardware, inner and outer tie rods, axles, and all seals.

    The same shit everyone else has.

    The trunk switch PN is 191 947 561. It is NLA unfortunately... You might be able to fined it on Ebay. Its from an 85-92 VW Golf and Jetta.

    There are 2 other similar switches They are the door jam switch - PN 7D0 947 563 A, and the parking brake light switch - PN 211 947 563.

    The only difference with these switches is they do NOT have the notch in them. However, you can simply cut the notch into them yourself.
