no lean - but I need to take the pre-load off the driver's side....
it drives a whole heck of a lot better - dare I say it, it rides really comfortably.... corners are a bit white knuckle because I've not put a front sway bar on - that said, I could slow down to something slower than ludicrous speed - it does ride very well, boxing the frame and putting good coils/shocks all around really does make this a nice riding vehicle.
which is what I hoped for - something I could drive to Moab then wheel anything there. This one might get a "if you see this on a trailer, call 911" bumper sticker.Doing it all wrong since 1966

Just a thought... at the tire dealer my father in law used, they had a manifold with clip on inflation valves so they could equalize all tires on the rig with nitrogen... kind of pricey for a DIYer, but, that's why it's just a thought...Patrick & Tammy

sad news, I was supposed to go wheeling this weekend - but the Jeep owners I know all had a cool wind blowing up their skirts and the Toyota guy gave it a full college try - but alas, even his FJ40 pee'd out its hydraulic fluid when confronted with the awesomeness that is my FJ40.... I need to bring them all over and do a round of upgrades to their vehicles (either that or provide thermal underwear for the Jeep guys)Doing it all wrong since 1966

time to build the boxes
there were some design changes (read, I can waste an entire sheet of material but still make what I need from the scraps.... just takes longer)
these fit between the b and c pillar
this one I have no idea what I'm going to do with it, but since I started, I figured why not
still have to weld the lids, cut holes for the locks and put some form of lid opener on them... but this is the idea
