    Xtreme 4x4 FJ Cruiser

    If you liked the start of that episode what until you see it finished. Lockers, Atlas, suspension seats and then it will get thrashed on the trails.......

    Xtreme 4x4 FJ Cruiser

    The issue with the E-locker was as follows. The original Cruiser I ordered for this show was not equipped with an E-Locker, but when the shoot date was closing in, we had to take what was available that was an e-locker equipped. I already had the ARB units and was going to send the rear back...

    Xtreme 4x4 FJ Cruiser

    The exo was mostly 1.5" .120 wall, I thought about using 1.625 but the steel rack a little low but the 1.5" was full. I wish I had given myself a little more room around the passenger brake light the exo tweaked a little once I had it off and fully welded. Thanks for the props in Diff work, I...

    Xtreme 4x4 FJ Cruiser

    Hey Guys, The FJ60 wagon will be finished in the future I am just not sure when it will be. That wagon is Jessi's personal truck and she is off for a while until she feels better. As for extending the show that is not very likely, we have talked about it with the execs, but it does not look...

    Xtreme 4x4 FJ Cruiser

    I know alot of you didn't like the EXO, but it did work really well and considering that fact that the show has never done an EXO on any project it seemed like a good fit. The main reason the cage was removable was to have it coated before it went back on, and trust me it didn't flex when up...

    Exhaust

    The Muffler you are talking about is the Flowmaster off road muffler. It uses the same technology as other flowmasters, but is stamped out of 14 Guage steel. I hammered on it to see just how tuff it is, and really is stronger than anything else. I can't find it on the website, but I am...

    The cruiser right now is looking like three eps this season, and maybe a couple next. Hope you guys liked it, it is a real catch 22 we want to give definate numbers on things like pinion angles and such, but often enough there are so many variables.

    No the cool thing about this job, is our sales team is pretty hands off when it comes to show content. My job is to source all the parts for these shows and plan out each project. Someone doesn't have to pony up dough, the project just has to make sense.
