Thanks for the compliments guys! Really appreciate the advice Harper provided on this build... probably PM'd him 5 or 6 times and he was always extremely helpful! The lift substantially changed the stance perception from the driver's seat... hard to believe it's only 3"! Fun to watch the wife get in with a skirt on too!!!  Still struggling with wheel choices, although I was pretty set on tire size (yes, it does rub when backing... gotta get in there and modify the inner fender liner on the driver's side at the back of the wheel well). Very happy with the Toytec setup... lots of articulation and the ride is much better than stock IMO. Waiting now for a TRD sway bar, though. Had the local Toyota dealer (Toyota of New Bern) do the wrench work and am extremely happy with the job they did! Here's some additional photos as requested... sorry for the quality, I'm not a photographer! As for the wheels... really liking the Mojaves several fellow members have... stay tuned!

Yep... left instructions to trash the Xreas and the lines... they were concerned that it would cause some sort of warning lights to go off. I had spent enough time on this forum reading and talking with members who've been there, done that to know it wouldn't. This is the second vehicle they lifted for me... had a 2008 Tundra Crewmax Limited 4x4 they put OME and deavers on also.

T2 - Awesome rig! I really like the OEM wheels on your ride with the larger tires and lift, has anybody powder coated them black yet?

Not sure about the Light Racing. But the FJ spec Icons UCAs fit my 5thT4R fine. Frame, suspension and engine are identical to 2010 FJ.

It is a photoshop. But stay tuned, Justin at Rocktek will have mine completed very soon!

also, did you install the lift yourself or have a 4x4 shop do it?

Fantastic Ice! Looks great. I fully agree with your sentiments in the other thread. For those who are changing suspensions and lifting, the SR5 is perfect. I plan on leaving my Trail completely stock. Otherwise, I would have taken an SR5 and gone to work (including the stereo  ).

That's sweet IceNomad! I'm so jealous of your sliders, mine still haven't arrived. Did you take it out today with everyone?

What is the scoop on these method race wheels? They strong and light? You have the street, forged or racing wheels? I'm liking these. Would look good on my black trail edition.
