Well I picked up some ball joint spacers, will wait to install when I freshen up the suspension and replace all the bushings with poly ones. I've.decided to save money for an ome lift.

Shocks are on and work great, super smooth front end. I also removed the front sway bar for now, will end up getting some quick discos for the back bar as it sways a bit on corners.

You doing FJ80 coils in the rear? Watch for rust near the rear fender when you take off the running boards.

Looking forward to a new 2nd Gen build to watch. It's my favorite series looks wise.

Love the colour too.

Still undecided on either fj80 coils or the ome coils, but im leaning towards the fj ones.

If you get ome 80 springs your gonna wanna be careful what you get.

Even the stock height ones have given some 80s a lift when there springs have been sagging.

So i can only imagine what some would to the runners.

After the hubs go to the wrecker and pull out the centre axle tube and eliminate your ADD axle tube. It's weaker and the vacuum system can cause problems. As you will have hubs might as well go all the way.

Good luck.
