    Thanks! I really like how it came out. I'm probably around $750 with the side hoops, shipping, hardware and wire

    Got the rear bumper done today. I'll post pics of the process in the next couple days. Might tackle the front next weekend.

    Going to tackle this tomorrow with my nephew. Front and rear bumpers from Coastal Off-road. I didn't see a lot of feedback on these diy kits but what I did see was positive. And the price is right

    Going to be in SD this weekend. Trail recommendations

    We had a really great time! I didn't see any toys but I did hook up with a couple of Rubicons My girls airing down the tires We did the short hike to the WW2 bunker. Didn't get a pic from inside but got this one from the top. There a couple younger guys in one of the Rubicons that were not...

    I haven't had trouble with my cooling system but a lot of guys around here add a second cooling fan. I'll probably do it eventually myself. As far as heat goes I'm just used to it. It's a fact of life around here. In the hot months I try to hit trails near water or higher elevation if possible.

    Going to be in SD this weekend. Trail recommendations

    Wow guys! Thanks for all the advice! I'm thinking we'll hit the Otay Mt trail. It's only mapping 37 minutes from where I'm staying. The trail to Deep Creek is super tempting but the drive is a little too much for this trip. Again, thank you all for chiming in. I really appreciate the help. And...

    The heat doesn't bother me or my rig but I was definitely hoping for something cooler than my native lands 😅 What would you recommend if I extend my range?

    That's looks awesome! That's another one to add to the list. Unfortunately I have to be in SD by 2pm tomorrow so I wouldn't have time. But Saturday I have the whole day. I am trying to not to drive too much more than an hour to a trail since I'll be traveling Friday and Sunday.

    Going to be in SD this weekend. Trail recommendations

    Hey folks, I'll be heading out to SD from Tucson this weekend and I'd like to hit a trail on Saturday. I was hoping some of you from the area might give me a little guidance. We're looking for something fun and/or scenic. I don't mind some technical stuff but I will have my girls with me so I'd...

    Here's how my buddy Jesse solved the cat/slider mount problem. I like it because aside from a 45 degree rotation the cats are in the factory location and we were able to get some additional ground clearance as well. I'm pretty stoked about the clearance

    Thank you! I really am stoked! My fj62 is fun but the 80 is such a better driver. For interior I'm sticking with stock tan color scheme. The upholstery shop is going to use a really sturdy marine vinyl with everything double stitched. It should be pretty durable. The plan is to drop off all...

    Got the Iron Man 2" lift installed and damn does it ride smooth. I originally was going to go for a 4"-6" lift and I still will eventually but I just wanted to get it road/trail worthy as soon as possible. This way I can take my time and really figure out what I want to do. On a side note, I...

    So I found a deal on tires I couldn't pass up. 35/12.5r17 mud tires for $187 shipped per tire. I have never bought an off brand tire in my life but I watched some youtube vids and they looked pretty solid so I took the shot. I found them on simpletire.com, a site my buddy turned me onto. Next I...

    Looking to hit a Phoenix area trail on Saturday (7/25) morning. Anyone going out?

    I would totally be down to join you! If you decide to go, give me a time and a place and I'll be there

    Reclaimed Fj80 Build/Rejuvenation thread

    7 years ago I made the hard decision to sell my stock 95' locked fj80 to a friend when I needed money. It sucked but I at least made him promise me if he ever sold it he'd give me right of first refusal. A couple years later he decided to sell it and gave me a call. Unfortunately I still wasn't...
