Oh yeah I have an ARB compressor and soon a 2nd batt to chuck on the front end as well...

Looks like you may want to call up ARB and get them to special make you some 887's

Joel, do you mind measuring from the floor to the front fender of you FJ?

I don't mind. I'll chuck a tape measure in there and next time I park level I'll try to remember to check. My driveway is sloped and causes lean...

Hmm... 887's...

Did you get yours in yet?

Swamper LTB's with Procomp blacksteelies with gorilla lugs come in Tuesday.
OME 886 springs, Driving lenses for the IPF lamps, and Sirius antenna for the FJammer come in on Wenesday.
Hopefully i will have sometime thursday morning to get these springs on. Got a buyer for the 885's and trying to get them shipped by the weekend for him.

Im thinking about a CO2 tank for airing up the swampers after trail runs
(still waiting on that tax return check to come in the mail )

Im also thinking about making some homemade limb risers. Kept hitting the windshield with limbs today. Gonna try to figure out something to where it either clears the hood when opening or is easily detachable.

That is going to be sick! Did the problem with your lights end up being that they were spots?


I took a couple more pics just now...

OME 883's versus stock front coils:


883's on the outside, stock on the inside.


Side by side. It's obvious who is who and who wins here...

I always thought they were the same length but when carefully lined up the 883's do have about 1/2" on the stock, not to mention the higher coil count and thicker wire diameter.



I've got coils out the wazoo lately. Good thing wenzor took my old stock 4x4 stuff for me!

Yeah, for some reason i was an idiot and thought the spots were the ones with the wider beams. I saw driving and thought " hmm, those must be for driving fast, like out in the desert and such, must be long range light" so i waited about a month for them on backorder only to realize that i got the long range (spot) lights, doh!
The lenses are 30 a piece. I will probably put the spot lenses up for sale since i will never use them after i change them out. ARB's technician said they are easy to change out. So, maybe someone will want to run both. Do you know what size and if a deep socket can reach the bolts to the IPF 900 lights on the ARB?
I have been having to unbolt the stone tray and stick a crescent wrench up there past the winch just to adjust or tighten the things. It is getting very old very quick to have to do that.
