Hey y'all! I'm currently headed down the coast on a little adventure from Seattle to Mexico in my 1987 FJ60 I've named 'Bean' and I figured I'd start my own build + adventure thread. I'll be sure to post more detailed photos of my build and of course all of the good stuff I see out on the road along the way
My original plan wasn't to build an adventure mobile...it all started with simply wanting a strong running wagon to use occasionally. But after finding TorFab's shop, he's an incredible mechanic and was pumped to build my rig, I decided to sell my home (a 17' Casita travel trailer)
- 1987 FJ60 w/ 170,000 miles with its original 2F
- H55F transmission
- Jim C rebuilt carb
- OME heavy suspension
- ARB rear locker
- ARB roof rack
- ARB Fridge
- ARB awning
- 38 gallon aux tank
- White Knuckle sliders
- Tuffy center console
- ProComp 15x8 rims + 33x12.5 Goodyear DuraTracs
- 4+ Front bumper
- 4x4 labs rear bumper w/ ladder + 3 jerry can
- Warn 9.5cti-s winch
- Dual batteries w/ IBS controller
- PIAA 570 LED lights
- Ciebe H4 glass + wiring upgrade
- Custom rear drawer and sleeper build out (photos soon)
Future plans:
- 5.3L V8...diesels are temping right?
- Rear air bags
- Campteq pop up....does he ever build them for FJ60's?
