I was her and Timmahhh's chauffeur at the summit.

But for some reason she didn't like the stiff springs in the rear of my FJ on the trail.

Re: Measurements - Before and After SFA Conversion

Drop it off and you can drive it out the door looking quite similar to that one (minus the dual cases) for $14k. (916) 388 9588 Phil@sillyfabservice.com

come on missy... get the w/b numbers... I know tim and I measured once but I can't recall... 6" over stock or something.

Re: Measurements - Before and After SFA Conversion

Could you please post the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the hydraulic step? Before and after it's engaged. Thank you.

Re: Measurements - Before and After SFA Conversion

OK, so here are my post SAC measurements:

Wheel base 107.5"
Bottom of mirrors to the ground 57"
Frame height 23"
Top of rock rail to the ground 27.750"
Top of roof 79"
Top of Gobi Ranger roof rack 86"
Front diff 11.75"
Rear diff 11"

and my personal favorite...

Door sill to the ground 30" (this is how high you must swing your leg to get into the drivers seat.)

Re: Measurements - Before and After SFA Conversion

Wow, those frontal pics really show the difference. Amazing!

So, does anyone in the Portland OR area want to do one for me in trade for 14K worth of tattoos?

So MissFJ, how is it on power now? Have you supercharged it? Or dropped the Tundra V8 in it or something? I've just got a 3" lift and 33" Toyos on mine and I noticed a bit of a drop in available power and about 1 MPG loss. I can't imagine how much power is being robbed with this setup. Seems like a supercharger would amost be nessesary just to move it.
