    Setting them at .85 might preload the 885’s too much. Looks great tho!

    I will give it a try. What’s the worst that could happen? :dancingbacon:

    *****What would you recommend instead? I'm definitely open to suggestions. The 885s i bought used and I know the rear wont settle so the front needs to go up a hair.

    Depends how much you want to spend. Any kind of all terrain tire would be sufficient. I recently got Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws and like them a lot. Very affordable for an all terrain tire.

    Made some T-slot pieces for the roof tracks. I don't like what the Thule drop in nuts do to the track and want more nut purchase in the slot anyway. Still need to drill/tap for 1/4 x 20 SS cap screws. 7ACD7FFF-175C-4D79-8777-1CE9BEAACA25_zps_6879e55536a48633d68ca792f13f41bb254e6821.jpg

    I kept the OEM’s just in case.

    I had to order them through the store. I'm in Texas and they came from Indiana. It took about two days for them to come in.

    Had tsl on my blazer not 40 but 37 12.6 16.5. Girl friend left. Oh well. She claims I need to see a dr. Or something. Claiming a normal person does not take dates out to "bfe sit staring at the stars, for a dinner date to some remote camp site to grill food. Or when ever someone says to seek professional help I ask someone how to better the truck" I told her I'm 47 I know what I like I like camping, hate restaurants and movie theaters. I am who I am if you don't like it there is the door. She left. So now back to finding a lift n tires for the truck.

    By FJ, do you mean FJ Cruiser? If not the Cruiser then I would say FJ.

    I just traded a FJ Cruiser in on my Tacoma. My son has a 4Runner Trail. Is your comments for off-road use or as a DD also? For a DD I'd go with the 4Runner. I liked my FJ but it sucked on the road.

    Send an email back and ask them if they will replace your cable and refund your purchase if their “solution” does not work and the cable is chewed up.
