Amazon for 107.90 for the fronts. I think my girlfriend is going to get me the rear for Christmas. I would definitely do it like I said they hold up great!

Fixed my slight steering knock/clunking sound today. I thought the inner tie rods were shot so I got some replacements and decided I'd do the lower ball joints too. Then I figured hell, I only want to pay for one alignment so I'll do my front lift at the same time.

After discovering the outer tie rod boots and ball joint boots were SHOT, I grabbed a set of new OTRs and returned the ITRs, as they were in good shape. I'm glad I got to that before disaster after reading some terrible stuff around other threads.

Everything installed:
2x LBJs
2x OTRs
2x OME 881s and 90004 shocks preassembled from Wheeler's. They are freaking fantastic! Fun day today.

Nice! How much did you get your OTRs and LBJs for?

 

[deverlow]

They're just Napa's. Stamped with 555 though so I hope they'll hold up well. It was around $220 for both pairs of LBJs and OTRs. I've had this Runner a little over a year and it had two different outer tie rods on it!

I bought myself new yokohama geolandar AT 265/70/17 on fj wheels. I like they way they look and now I am waiting to test them out.

Ran them for like a year in a 265-75-16 and loved them. They were a great tire!

probably also should have rebooted or changed your CV axle half shafts in conjunction to installing your lift..

I know some of you guys have upgraded your batteries to a bigger size with more cca, but I searched and can't find any definite answers what the best size is. I'm going with a diehard platinum. Which one should I get? I can fab up a mounting tray and all that.

The Bad...
My intake tube is dry rotted around and cracked, when I put it back on it tore pretty bad by the inlet

The Ugly...
I had oil inside the air intake
