Thumbs up FORUM GURUS & MENTORS - - They got answers!!

Please join me in welcoming our new crew of technical gurus, advisory committee members, subject matter experts, specialty answer-persons, newbie mentors and all-around great guys/gals who have graciously volunteered their time and knowledge to help all of us out with our FJ Cruiser questions and problems.

These forum members are offering their services where and when inquiries may go beyond that of typical questions in posts and threads, and you might need a specialty question addressed or some support in starting/completing a project that's unique to your situation.

Our gurus have agreed to not only address your questions on a one-on-one basis via PMs, but will also want to be called upon to help out in existing topical threads where their respective area of expertise may be helpful.


(Whenever possible and appropriate, please post up a thread when one of our gurus has helped you find a solution, so that we all can learn from the shared knowledge.)

Even though these forum members are pleased to help any time they can, please try not to over-burden them with too many questions, if possible.

I've tried to best categorize the topical areas in which each of our "gurus" can serve us best.

Right on Gurus. You need to have a link/button some where on the forum navigation that says "AskTheGuru" or something like that and then you get the "Gurus" page.
