I am staying with stock rims. I will put new tires (if there are still in your shop :) ) after doing chop and lift.

As fridge, you mean an "active" unit like ARB or similar?
I was debated if go that way or not, and at the end I decided for a simpler cooler. Probably also because I do not go often for more that 3 or maximum 4 days.

Hi, what is exactly the CV band thing?
I searched on google a littl ebit but did not come up with a real understanding. Why is it needed on the FJ? I ask this because I had problems with one of my CV boots in the past.

Also: is your windshield damaged? I had a tiny crack in mine but I had it repaired.

the fix for the CV boot clamp is a GOOD hose clamp you can get them from a marine supply store like the one near Bozly's shop it's needed because the one toyota put on there are junk...
