Well last week I installed a 2" body lift last weekend and I got my rims back from the powder coater Friday and had my BFG 33x10.5 MT's put on ... pix. It is deffinitely looking better after rescuing it from my girlfriends backyard.

I finally resolved my shifter boot problem (popping out of 2nd and 4th gear) after pulling the boot out it and upon closer inspection there are actually three boots comprising the shifter boot (four if you count the vinyl interior boot). The first rubber boot, a smaller version of that underneath and finally a two circular hole boot on the bottom. This latter one was the cause of the binding and bunching up of rubber. I discarded the bottom boot and the inner boot mostly cause it was torn and now it works great.

Still to come ... fixing my leaking power steering gear box, the power brake booster that went out this weekend ... Toyota parts are getting expensive! I also have BJ spacers and Cruiser coils to install as soon as I get the time to do it.
