Can't wait to get these things on. :thumb::wrench:

Last Friday all 14 control arm bushings. MASSIVE improvement in handling. Look for an upcoming writeup.

Whatch end up doing about the Banjo bolts?

I ended up just cutting them down by just shy of 1/4 inch or so. And they fit just fine. Everything seems to be functioning well. I'm gonna go get under there tomorrow and check if anything is leaking. But I doubt it will be.

Changed the oil and took 10 minutes to slightly modify this to fit:

You're definitely in with a good crew there Travis, that truck is going to be super set up once you're finally done with it. If there is such a thing.. are you going 4.88? or 5.29?

I removed the squealing smog pump from my 60 this evening. Dang cheap chit Cardon reman is around 2 years old. Total PITA to get in there on a fully smogged 60. I may pop for the $400 (last time I checked) OEM reman from Stevinson. Pretty sure you can't buy an actual new one any more.

Changed the oil in the FJ40 on Friday last week. The previous record said 2011 was the last time I changed the oil. That can't be right. Even with it having 500-1000 miles in that time, that really can't be right.
