    I've had the Tundra for long time and many mods. But not a 4x4 so now I have my new toy FJ getting all the mods. Found a new reason to spend money again:spending:

    I was gonna white knuckle but decided to go with RCI they had a better sale. And surprisingly shipping was cheaper even though I'm in Cali and they are in Colorado. And white knuckle is also in Cali but was going to run more for shipping

    my Next big fj mod is a engine swap. Lol that’s gonna be rough. I have 300k on my current motor. The new motor is out of a taco and has 80k on it. My mechanic says that will be a lot easier then replacing all the seals. I has a slow oil leak which is common for its age and wear.

    Yes it is and I’m not in a big hurry to do the swap the truck still runs great. It’s a woods/hunting truck now. Just gotta keep tabs on the oil.

    I had a fj several years ago. I enjoyed the heck out of it! It performed very well Offroad. I ended up getting rid of it for another Tacoma but I do miss it though.B7D8DDE7-885A-4BEB-95A3-BB56B8DE7420.jpg DBADB253-FE7A-4BA1-B4A5-7B8630CF4358.jpg

    I had a FJ too, I loved the damn thing. But I needed a better tow vehicle, so I got a Tundra.

    Even went a little crazy prettying up the engine bay. I feel a little guilty for not giving my Tundra the same treatment. :(

    Without an aftermarket rear bumper (like Expedition One), you have basically two options.

    One is to get a rear ladder that mounts to the door and utilize some tube brackets on the ladder to hold your accessories.

    The other option is a rear tire mount system like this
