4x4 / Off-Road TechThis section contains all discussion related to taking the FJ Cruiser in Off-Road situations, 4x4 applications and any armor modifications.
I have a suggestion for all that post "Comparisons". Some of these threads get rather long so, what do you think about creating a poll of those being compared? A poll might allow others to see at a quick glance what others think is the best products. What do you think?
That won't get you much. Many things, like the looks of an item, are subjective. For me, all the bumpers currently fail because I don't want to mount a winch. For sliders, do you want them out for a step, or tucked in as much as possible? Now, you can start your own thread with a poll saying "I need a X to do A, B and C. Which of these is best?" That would be more useful to you, IMHO.
Before you me I've spent the last 30 minutes searching... and if it is somewhere else on the forum it's in the wrong spot as it should be a line item in this comparision.
Since this is a comparison, what about approach angles? It looks to me like the ARB takes away and others like the AllPro may add? Could all the manufacturers take measurements using the stock suspension height and stock tires? I ask to keep it stock so we can have an accurate comparison.
There are a couple I just don't like the looks of and won't buy, but there are quite a few that I like and can't make a decision yet based on just price, weight, material, etc. Knowledge of approach angle would really help.

Rover, can you please change the weight on the Fab Fours to 106 lbs, that was my fault, I was at the fab shop and they had one on the scale 106 and that is all the hardware.
