Trying to find the time. Likley tomorrow/wednesday. I want to get a needle fitting for my grease gun so I can refill them properly before clamping them up.

I forgot the product number there. Product Number is: 5574K16

No problem at all. They are from a site called McMaster-Carr and the product is "type 304 stainless steel clamps". Here is a link

Not 100% sure on exactly what they did to get it into a range that was "acceptable" I have the sheet with all the specs but hell if I know or care to know what any of that means. I talked to my mechanic about it (he specialized in allignments for about 20 years prior to coming to run this...

CV angles are good. Getting aftermarket UCA's would help with the alignment spec. I did not go that route and they were able to get it into an acceptable range. It rides well, no pull.

No rubbing at all. I did not end up taking measurements. Intended to but never did. It has settled out nicely. Still maintains a little forward rake, though its pretty much level with a little gear in the back and a tank of gas.

Ya, they are Cooper. Not a mistake. Just Google "255/75/R17 Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx tires" they come right up.

Nice! Go for it, the ride is great and to answer an earlier question the road noise, its hardly noticable. Two thumbs up on the over all set up. Im very happy with it.

I paid $165 shipped for rear spring and front strut assembelies of of a 2014 FJ 4X4 with 2500 miles on the the FJ forum. I didnt want the front shock but he didnt want to disassemble (I went with 5100 adjustables up front and in the rear as well). The ride is great, I have had the new set up...

I cant comment yet on the road noise as I have not had them on the highway yet. I have a few more pics, none that good, but Ill post them up for you. Also, these pictures show it totally level, it was loaded with the original tires/rims/suspension components in the rear when I took these photos...

Man! $225 for 4 would have been a steal! Luck with the search.

Note that price is for 4 tires. Not 5. I am using the current spare still and keeping the 5th FJ wheel as a back up for when I screw one of the rims up in the future.

Thanks man! I got the wheels off of the FJ forum - 5 wheels including shipping for $500. Had to watch the classified there for about 3-4 weeks but very happy with them. They were very lightly used and in excellent shape. Tires from Tread Depot - $783 including the shipping. I like them a lot.

Signature Updated! Thanks for the reminder. Ya, he wanted $13,900 but I was able to get him down. I looked for a while so I knew if I waited one out a little bit I could get the price I wanted. Thanks for the compliments!

I searched for about 5 weeks before I pulled the trigger on this 2007 SR5 4WD V8 with 92,000. I ended up paying $11,750 for the vehicle and its in great shape, no major rust, interior is good, and everything works well. Even before buying the vehicle I was stockpiling parts and by the time I had...
