Fitting 35’s with minimal trimming NOW ADDING LONG TRAVEL AND 934 CV’s

The memory of it puking oil everywhere would be worth more!

 

I only had to burn my clutch out and i was like screw it....lol

 

When you spot it in the wild…

 

shhhh…the first rule of Trekker Club is that we don’t talk about The Trekker

 

Found in the wild

 

Now we just need action shots.

 

You guys that are running the 2.25 Lt kit, how to you have your front and rear cams set up on your lower pivots? Mainly looking for the rear cam and what orientation they’re in.

 

I have my rear cams all the way outboard. Fronts are somewhere in the middle, wherever put me at 0° camber.

 

I was in his dust all day....he just posted some sweet nighttime vid on his IG story

 

Maybe alternator or battery and it’s causing braking issues because you have an electronic booster? Completely spitballing here. I doubt it’s that simple, I hope you can get it resolved with minimal cost.

 

I wish, looks good

 

Still a long way to go on the FJ. 39s was a sweet spot. Turning 40 next year. I thought I'd get 40s to work on this set up. Cage or links next year? @81Trekker

 

I'm on this boat. If the 4.0 dies, I'll go LS, but until then the 4.0 is adequate.
Curious if there's any MPG gain over the wimpy 4.0 purely because V8 pushing around a midsize. Probably not, but I'll tell my wife that there is when the time comes.

 

Actually I’d bet you could get a sizable increase in economy depending what you do. IF you can behave with the skinny pedal…..

 

I’ve been getting 18-19 in the LS taco... it’s also on 33” tires

 

I built my own nitrogen charge kit for the bumps and coilovers that way I can adjust on my own. I am going to double check the pressures today.

According to my research the coilovers are 150-200psi. You check at full extension.

The bumps are 50-100 psi.

Is this accurate information?

 

Could probably break into the 20’s fairly easily if it’s just a stock tune stock engine too….

 

UFO things.



So, this thread/ jdfab products related. I often get mad at the steering on the truck, even with the upgraded pump as I “shimmy” the truck around the driveway/ parking lots and what not. I was reminded today how awesome the steering upgrades and especially the Howe pump are. Installed some fresh 37’s today and of course discount tire filled them to 40psi or so. The truck steers like a dream even at a stop being able to turn the wheel with one finger. Big difference from the 15-18psi I usually run lol. But since the truck is basically a toy getting almost no road miles I never air up.

Anyhoot, I’ll be out in JV Saturday to Tuesday doing some KOH race car stuff if anyone is out in the area and spots us.
