Hey guys, I put some pics of my latest rear end conversion mods in our FJ gallery....check them out let me know what you think.....ZX-7, 5 1/2" wheel and caliper, a Michelin 2CT180/55/17.....a kerker pipe with a bigger (quieter) can i graphted in.   Cant see it but also a penske adjustable shock and lastly, new chain and sprockets,18/39. It handles alot better,to say the least.

That looks great.  What size rear tire did you go with? I'm still on the fence.

A 180/55/17 Michelin fits well....maybe1/2" on either side. The chain can rub the tire ,as mine did, if the sprocket isn't moved out some ...which has to be considered when measuring things up.
