Haven't set a date yet. Or location. (Waiting for the weather to warm up a bit) It will either by at my place in Plymouth, or my Step-Daughter/Future Son-in-laws place in Houlton Wi. If we dot this in Wisc, we have a nice pole barn to work in.
I need to remove my front bumper and do a lot of re-wiring / and possibly bed lining my bumper.
Anyone have any work they want help with?
BBQ / Potluck
Taking suggestions for dates......

So I'm guessing no shop day.

Sometime in the next month or so I want to get the lift installed on my rig (Bilstein 6112/5100) Any more thoughts on a shop day? I could probably do it myself, but it's more fun as a group.

Oh no!! That is a bad discovery. I am sorry Bill. Are you bringing it in to a shop or are you going to replace it yourself?

If I'm not mistake, a bunch of broken coils shown up with that special edition... there's at least one thread about it on fjforums.
You can have the Bilstein coilovers I just took off my FJC if you want.

I brought it into Rudy Luther first thing Monday morning. They are going to warranty them, and said the replacements should be here by Friday at the latest! FINGERS CROSSED!!
Thanks for the offer bigswede! I do appreciate it! If timing from Toyota is off (Meaning they are not here next week) I may have to take you up on the offer! Lets hope not!

Hopefully the coils would fit over your shocks, otherwise you would lose the lift if you have to use my shocks too. But hopefully your replacements come in and it is a non-issue.

Ah yes.
I don't know if my coils would have fit your shocks anyway, those look more like 6112s than 5100s, diameter-wise.

Thats exactly what they are the 6112's. 3x14 Springs.
