Looks great man!

BAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHA!!! EPIC FAIL! I am dying here at work looking at this!

Haha! thats pretty sweet! I might just make a set!

Everybody loves pie...

They were stacked one on top of the other in the rails, thats why they wouldnt just pop loose. They were so wedged in there!

The culprits:

Gorgeous FJ! Sent the link to my friend with an FJ as inspiration for him

sad day. In my local 4xgroup we have the "Pink Tow Hook Of Shame" that you have to keep on your vehicle if you had to call in someone from the group for a rescue when you get stuck. It stays on you until the next guy gets stuck and hollers SOS.

Looks like a reflection of the house..

That intake sure is.........is........ Custom! Interested to hear how its working for ya! Welcome!

yay for laggy internet causing double postings.. (mods delete this post please)

Your rig would look sweet with SteeevO's wheels.

Amen to that!

Black on black looks great! Welcome!

Glad it happened when you were going a pretty slow speed though!

I got the 16s with the 3.75 BS for mine. I found tires that were cheaper with a 16" than the same tire with a 15" so I opted to just save the money. Price-wise, they were the same price when I ordered them (1 1/2 years ago).

I know the hood is different than the post-facelift pathys, is it pretty different than the 96-99s too?

Was looking under the hood and found that the PO had used some electrical tape to conceal a ginormous tear in the rubber elbow leading from the air intake to the throttle body. This has left a big gap there for all kinds of junk to get in.. Well, they didnt have any at my local store, so I'll be ordering a new one, until then I used real tape (gorilla tape) to wrap it up good and snugged it up tight till I can get a replacement. While it was off I cleaned my disgustingly filthy throttle body of all the grime that had built up from the gaping hole in the tubing.

Bringing this up to see if this may be an option for the pre-face lift R50s. I have a custom front bumper, and would be interested in just swapping out the headlights/corners and maybe the grille in between them. (I mostly just want the Qx4 Headlights but they wont work with my current grille) How much work would that be? Simply going to the JY and finding some front end parts and bolting them on? or would this be a whole day of relocating support brackets..... anybody ever done this before?

Somewhat off-topic... but is there a "best" way to wash? PS. I'm throwing the P1105 code too, found one vacuum hose was loose, snugged it back on and hope that helps...

Sweet deal, about time you joined! I grew up in Aloha, glad to see another Oregonian on here. Show us your ride!

Great setup you've got there! I really like the look of it, and will probably copy that. Mine's up pretty high right now, doesn't look BAD... but not near as clean as the way you've pulled it off on yours.
