Then I ditched and headed to Mexico for a month.
Took another troopy though, 12HT Trakka thing with a ton of extras (long range tank + front tank, water tank, onboard air, interior build etc)
Here are some glamour shots from that:
Super fun trip, and got to road test this troopy to see what needs to be done before I sell it.
Back in the states, I started working on the other troopy again.
Scheelman seat went in (passenger is still in shipping)
Tossed in the rear buildout from my white troopy. We'll see if this stays. It's size is not too bad with the alucab
Picked up a set of MRR Bypass Shocks from Dobinson. These have 3 way adjustability of Low Speed Rebound, High Speed Rebound and Dampening.
The front was a no-brainer
In the rear I initially put them behind the mudflap
But realized that's probably a dumb spot as they will get soaked with mud and could get hit by rocks.
So I tucked them on the frame rail in front of the wheel.
The end. Still waiting on a slow month so I can start the 1HDT swap. The 3F is brutal...

So, do you run a shop? Are you a vendor of some sort? Do you sell wares? Are LCs your bread and butter or is this some overland thing?
I guess my question is what is the back ground of the work you do?
I’m trying to figure out where all of this comes from.
Because it’s all pretty cool.

I own Fit Garage, we are primarily a suspension, tire, wheel and repair shop. I'd like to shift my focus into just cruiser builds, but suspension/tires, repair is too easy money to give up. The troopies are primarily personal projects.
Thanks, btw.
FITGARAGE YOU RULE!! Thanks for all the work. He has been getting tested and performing A+

Stop hahahaha, we can't actually get those. It was a used part from another troop carrier.
That's too bad. I've been trying to source some and the one on your truck looks remarkably identical to the ones that Gullwing Door for Toyota Land Cruiser Troopcarrier - CSW has on their website, but they never answer any of the emails that I have sent. And they don't seem to be in production any longer.
Oh wait. @60toyetero is this the thread where we're supposed to post pictures of our own rigs? I've been ****ing up and posting them in my own thread 
. Seriously though, if you are on the west coast and need work done, seriously consider making the trip to FitGarage. Alex gets s*** done right and he's an enthusiast and all around good dude. There's just a 50/50 chance his dog will bite you and you'll have to roll over a slammed miata to get on the lift.

Watching Lukas aimlessly navigate the world wide web is one of my favorite past times.
Thanks for the bro hype papa. I finished your whiskey in Mexico, it was everyones favorite. <3
Just call them they will answer I have talked to them numerous times in the past
@Don Lacer If no luck with CSW, try contacting Emuwing.com
They're out of Australia and have shipped to the US... so might ship to Japan as well.
