Hey everyone! I’m Brian, the President of Victory4x4 and JcrOffroad. If you are unfamiliar with us, we have been producing American made Jeep parts under the JCR brand for 18 years. I started out of my Mom’s 20x20 garage! In 2015 we started Victory4x4 to focus on the Toyota and Lexus models.

We now operate out of 34,000 sqft in Portage Mi, producing everything in house. We laser cut, machine, weld and powder coat, employing 45. This is what we do full time, we do not make any parts that are not for these two brands. We ship over 2000 orders a month 🤯

Currently we are wrapping up the last few projects on the GX platform, so we decided the 200 series was next!

After searching high and low, I found a decent deal on a 2016 LC with 68k on it. It was delivered Wednesday!

The plan is to build it out, while also developing products to put into production. A full outfit would be; bumpers, sliders, skids, roof rack, molle panels and other accessories. We’ll do our best to get to pre-facelift LC and LX parts as we go as well.

Feel free to ask questions, make suggestions and follow along!

*update* found a deal on a 2015 LX570, so added that to the fleet!

This is fantastic news, the more competition the better! I am familiar with your products on the 5th Gen and now the GX460 (still waiting to see the rear bumper haha) and now products for my other vehicle, I can't wait. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for the 200 series platform.

The GX460 rear is going to happen very soon! Hoping to transition our style onto the 200 market, really excited to get started.
 
Great news. Looking forward to the great things you'll be offering for the 200.

Reasonably priced options would be very much appreciated. It is probably a volume thing, but when I see how affordable Jeep and Tacoma parts are, I get jealous.

One product that we don't have affordable options for in the US is a light cargo/pet barrier. They are readily available in Australia, but it just costs too much to get them over here.

I think the aiirbags are a concern for some (David from Tekbox has mentioned this recently)

Wit's End bought rights to the Speski barriers (great mounting system!), and with any luck will eventually offer something, but it isn't high on their list.

I have a cheap one from Russia, but would love to replace it with one from the US (if we can get it at a reasonable price).

Hard mounting to the vehicle, not the headrest posts would be better...

Let me know if you need a beta tester.
 
Finally!!! Following to see what’s next

I would like to see something similar to the Rhino bumper design with full bumper replacement and a 21”+- recessed light bar option. Hopefully you all come up with a sweet design in the next few months ready to sell. 😉
 
Welcome! We see a lot of your parts come through our shop. Great to see you here!

Yeah, this would be great!
 
I followed your company closely when I had my 4Runner and I’m thrilled you are making something for the 16+ land cruiser.

I’d like to plug a full front bumper with an aluminum option for those of us in the rust belt
 
Going after the easy things first, was able to find an existing center console molle panel that fits perfectly! This allow for a belt clip holster, clip your knifes, flashlight, etc on them. They install with 4 screws into the plastic.

Bingo! I am in. The lines look like they were made for the 200! Will there be spacers made to allow for proper spacing front to back? Can you provide hardware that matches the panel? My boss is on board as long as everything matches. Once ARB came out with the new classic 2 fridge in gunmetal and black it was an easy purchase. Add something to the 200 that does match and it’s game over for me.
 
Looking forward to gear for my LX570 ;)
 
Cool! Your in Mi.!
I look forward to driving over soon to pick up parts!!
Are you thinking about making sliders?
