Title: FJ Love
Post by: n8man1068 on July 29, 2009, 08:23:54 PM
Got cleared by my ortho dr this week to resume all normal activity. No more braces. I still haven't regained full flex of my left ankle, but I figure I can rotate the shifter down to facilitate. Sadly, I haven't done much on rebuilding yet. Still watching ebay for turn signals and brackets. Had I known I could return to riding this year, I wouldn't have dropped the cash on a lift kit and other goodies to set my Jeep up for offroading.

Until then, I look at these stickers every day and daydream of 3rd gear kookaloo-age.

What turn signals are you looking for ? I have the 2 rear stock signals. How do you like the Factory Pro jet kit ? I just put in the Y08 3.0 kit in my 89

All 4. Do you have the mounting brackets too? What lights to you upgrade to?

I really like the Factory Pro kit. In all fairness, I had a S-ton of work done all at once. The factory pro kit was installed at the same time the carbs were completely torn down, cleaned, and rebuilt with the kit put in, new tires, and the forks completely rebuilt with upgraded springs. The 1st time I cracked the throttle on a straight back road, I had to wax the tank several times and I had a shit eating grin for days.  :crazy:

Only have the rear 2 signals that came off my 89 I used the stock mounting brackets when I put on the carbon fiber signals [ebay]. The new signals don't stick out as far as the stock ones.
