step 2 to fitting my 285s with stock wheels without spacers
coilovers are the extended length and should give me more down travel instead of me lifting tires around curves due to stock arms and long OME shocks.
my tundra lift should be up for sale soon.

Sweet, those look nice.
I am still new to this new front end type of stuff with coilovers.
I am wondering if it is worth getting new UCAs down the road for the OME lift or not.
I see some use a uniball instead of the ball joint setup.

yeah they are uniball uppers, mine are at a nasty angle right now and I bet the upper BJs are going bad. I already had my lowers replaced but that was because of a recall. that thread is still around where they screwed me too but regardless.
I cant wait, I want to run these at Pismo during october for that run slosurfer is posted up so I can do at least some mid to high speed stuff (being no more then 40 probablly)
Corey you prob wont need UCAs for the OME, but they do help with clearence with 285s and stock wheels.

I am stepping upto 285s later, but I hear on the FJ the tires should fit OK with the stock wheels which I plan on keeping.
Never thought I would say that, but I dig the factory wheels.
If not, only the HUGE body mounts that Toyota used can be trimmed down.
Plenty of good info online about doing that on the FJ.
