Default proper roller
OK ... put the 'Big Boy' wheels on
Nitto Trail Grappler's 35x12.5's




New MSD Airforce intake ... looks bad ass and should have much better low end torque

Looking good, how much lift did you do to the truck.

I loved my FJ, I probably would have gotten another one if the prices wouldn't have hit the sky! I love these two you have.

Default Powder coating
Thanks Wayne

OK... for those of you that may be interested in powder coating at home
I've always wanted to powder coat stuff myself as I'm fed up with taking parts to my local guy and spending a small fortune and waiting for the sh!t to get done. So I made a little investment ....

Eastwood starter Kit ... $165
5 more lbs of powder ... like $70.00
Nice oven off Kijiji ... $150
Panel breaker/electrical ... $60.00
Total ... Under $500.00

Result ... awesome !!!
This was so easy, should have done this a long time ago but I was a little intimidated.

Kit has it all, bag of plugs, heat safe tape, hanging wire etc.








Approx 13 mins at 450 degrees until it flows, then 20 mins at 400 deg. to cure
