All-Pro for 3rd gens

[cj80cruiser]

I don't see many people using All-Pro stuff on here. Am I not paying attention or is there a reason? Price, customer service,...etc. They seem to cater more towards Tacomas but that seems to be the norm anyways for most sites. I really like their tube bumper for tacomas amongst other things.

I've been curious if anyone has used their CV boots.

I've always thought the general consensus was that All-Pro makes very generic and/or boring upgrades.

Anything I can get from them, I can probably get a better or cooler one with usually a minimal price difference.

IE: I didn't like their sliders, bought 4xInnovations. I didn't like their wheel spacers, bought Spidertrax.

SAS kit is cool, super expensive. Likely damn good stuff, but for the 8k it costs, you can do a 4 linked FZJ80 front axle swap and still have way more than enough for gears, lockers...

That's just me, though.

im running their spacers. great product. they really thought it through with their "ET" nuts.

 

[Baja Runner]

I'd buy the CV boot if it was for the inner. I've only torn inner boots, never outer...

What don't you like about them?

Ha.

That's the only thing I could think of.

I inquired numerous times about their tube bumpers fitting my 4runner,but could never get a straight answer other than "not sure" I felt if they sell 4runner sh*t they should at least look into it,and not tell me "not sure"
So I found a welder to make me a similar bumper for about $150 less

I think it's an ugly bumper anyhow. Those big hoops really to nothing aside from looking goofy IMO. If you want true fender protection, nut up and run a tube from the bumper to the sliders.

I emailed them about that, and they responded that their Taco bumpers will not fit the 4Runner.

Looks like you would have to cut about 3-4" of frame off to get the bracket to bolt on. Then I "think" it will fit.

OK I am running All-Pro Bilstein CO's, UCA's and sliders(soon to be ODL sliders). Recently AP has gone through a bunch of staffing changes of long time employees. Even living close and having spent thousands of dollars between my brothers build of his 85 solid axle(10k+) and the 1500 or so on my Runner they could care less about the little guy, and even less about the 3rd gen runners. I tried working with them on several items and they had no interest said there isnt a big enough market for them to be concerned with products for our trucks. I guess no one told ODL, Toytec, Additcted or CBI about that as they are now thriving off of 3rd gen products and developing more since there is a huge market and not enough vendors.

Personally I have been pleased with the products I have been using of theirs but the attitude of the owner towards his employees and the guys spending a couple hundred at a time( the real ones keeping his business going) is unacceptable. Over the past several years he has only cared about FJ's, and late model Taco's and just gone down hill.

Without the hoops over the lights it's a good looking bumper imo. Sucks to hear about their attitude.

I think that's all I needed to hear.
