Your neck still bugging you?

lol. That branch was huge!! It must have weighed like 7 lbs.

Seriously tho that was definately a WTF moment.

I need a new mod, how about a neck brace? Jury's really feel sorry for you when your wearing those. Anyone have a wheelchair I can borrow?

damn, wish there was a group like this in my area. Nothing better then working on FJs with fellow forum members and drinking some brews for a day. I'm so jealous.
I'll just tackle my OME lift with a laptop beside me so you're all there in spirit.

Just invite Air and Octa over I am sure they can entertain you while you work.

I assume you guys had to align your front ends post-install, no?

[Son of a Son]

Im going soon. either tomorrow or fri.

Got my alignment today. They got everything within specs except the caster which is expected.
Camber L .18 R .20
Caster L 1.29 R 1.07
Toe L .03 R .06
SAI L 11.50 R 11.58
Inc Ang L 11.68 R 11.78
It drove nice after the lift and drives nice after the alignment. Techs notes said " Unable to get caster into specs. due to the lift ( not a tire wear angle)". I took it to Gresham Toyota. I figured they had the specs on hand.

Tim have you got your fj alignment yet? How did it go?

If you are up in Sherwood, we have taken a few trucks over to Ricks Automotive in Newberg just down the road from you. (on 9th just off HW219 by the small airport) Rick does a great job. (Mostly a hot rod shop but he specializes in alignments) I dont recall what he charged us for the last one.

Fellas' you gota aline them, save the tires!
