Has anyone used there FJ for towing? and if so how much GVWR were you pulling? and how did it handle?
It sure would be nice to pull a small camper to a good off road site for several day adventures.

Welcome! I don't remember the names but do a search as there are a lot of people who have boats, campers, etc. that they have towed.

I have been towing my Fleetwood E3 Popup trailer. It is 22' long collapsed, and weighs approx. 3000# loaded. My FJ has th OME Heavy suspension frt and rear, along with All Pro rear ultimate lower control arms. I am also using an All Pro rear bumper with receiver. The Fj pulls the E3 like a dream, It will cruise at 60-70 mph with very little effort. I have also taken the E3 offroad 15-20 miles at a time to various CA4WD events this past summer. The FJ with the right suspension is a very capable tow vehicle.
