Builds FJ 45 Extended Cab Custom Vehicle Build Finally Begins

[orangefj45]

luckily there's some space between the flat bed and the frame so you can get a sneak peak of the tube work including the rear shock mount. even though it's a fairly simple design, it's one of my favorite items don has built so far. and he's done some really cool s*** like the tube doors on the FJC amongst other "outside of the box thinking" tube work.

FC just left.



OrangeFJ45, your 12" shocks are mounted in the back. The 14" were too long.




We have a place for batteries now.

Dan, are you bring this to the #1 check point for the Surf N Turf poker run that were (Central Valey Crawlers) manning?

Everyone can see it then!

The rear shock mounts look awesome. Like you said Georg, simple but looks bitchin.

I'm that punk college kid that kept wasting your guys time over the summer Don.

Maybe someday I will be able to afford a set of your sliders.
