Thought I should go ahead and start my build thread since I've gotten a few things done to my new to me '07 FJC. It won't be quite as intense as some of the builds that I have seen on here but if nothing else maybe it'll help someone else in some way. I hope to do some moderate offroading with it. Most of the time it will be my hunting and fishing vehicle. Well, here we go!
2007 FJ Cruiser Voodoo Blue
-100,000 mi

-??
What I could use some input on~~
-I'm not sure exactly where I want to mount my CB antenna yet. The kit that i bought came with the bandi mount but i'm actually leaning towards mounting on the front right of the ARB front bumper. Any input would be appreciated.
-I don't know which tires I want yet. I pretty much have it narrowed down between the Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx and the Dick Cepek Fun Country. I currently run a set of Fun Countries on my '06 Duramax and haven't had a complaint about them yet(17,000mi). The FC's are about $20 cheaper per tire than the Maxx's. There are just so many good reviews about the Maxx's and I love the white lettering.. Help me out guys.
-Do I really need to get new UCA's with my OME lift, and if so which ones do you recommend? (Light Racing,Total Chaos,..)
On the way home from the dealership she rolled over 100,000K. Made me kinda sad. lol
First thing I had to do was replace the gunked up flat 4 trailer wiring harness and replace it with a 7 way. I'm not sure if the original had ever been used..
The 7 way does hang down lower than I had hoped but if I ever think I may get into a bind and scrape it, I can remove one screw and zip tie the plug in up by the frame.
First thing's first.. Have to thank my father, fantic, for all of his help and resources.
