Re: Is this too heavy for stock front suspension?

886's are WAY too heavy IMO for your application. I run a rather heavy FJC that includes a MAF auxiliary fuel tank in the back (an extra 20 gallons @ 6 lbs/gallon) and a Fab Fours rear bumper with swing arm (another 150 lbs) and 885's give me a nice ride in the back with ALL THAT WEIGHT. I can't imagine that there would be much advantage to running 886's on the back of an FJ unless you were dealing with extreme loads - likely exceeding design parameters for the FJ.

But just my opinion.
