So I got a e-mail from my friend Jonathan over at Brenthel Industries today. He is doing a very limited time, limited quantity special on their fully boxed upper control arms. Normally these sell for $1,050.00 but he is selling 3 sets including hardware for 40% off ($629.00). If you want to partake in the [...]
This past weekend I installed the All Pro high clearance exhaust tail pipe on the FJ. It was a very easy and straight forward install that took me about 30 mins. The results are a much cleaner looking rear end and as well as a much more functional one as well. On top of it [...]
