I've been really happy with my Bilstein 5100 shocks and OME heavy load springs with all of my added armor weight. After I picked up a trackbar correction kit and got my geometry right the rig rides better than any new truck!
The most popular setup on the [FJ Forum](https://www.fjcruiserforums.com/forums/) is the Blistein 6112 up front and 5160s in the rear. This is for good reason, when it comes to bang-for-buck the 6112's are hard to beat.
I did my FJ’s oil change for the first time myself a few weeks ago. All the aftermarket filters seem to not be as good as OEM, and they cost more. Got mine from the dealer, with the gasket, for under $9
Added crossbar racks and finally ditched the TRD brakes.
I run falcon wild peaks on my fj cruiser and 100 series. They’re a great value for money tyre.
Put a Denso rem one from Rock Auto on my 07 and it was great.
I swapped my FJ cruiser stock front brakes for the larger GX460/V8 4Runner discs, calipers, and shields, as well as adding stainless lines as a nice upgrade package.
BFG KO2s were OEM and I replaced with another set. UE came with 33"KO2s (not mudders) infused with some kind of black magic that allows them to be great off road and quiet, smooth high grip on paved roads - mine lasted more the 70k miles.
I replaced the cats at 190k at 225k I replaced all 4 brake calipers it didn’t need the rears but since I was doing the front I did them all and replaced the rear axle seals at the same time.
Someone warned me against going with auto parts store Remanufactured because they had to do it 2 or 3 times before they got a good Alt, so I stuck to OEM.
