    • @Caleb-Nall

      You're correct. Those are Tacoma wheels. FJ's are known for going out of alignment easily when you off-road, then that causes the steering wheel to shake.

    Have a 2008 FJ, when you come to a stop, you feel like you are getting hit in the rear end, Im always looking to see if someone actually did rearend me. lol The drive shaft constantly needs greased to help stop this. There was a recall on the early models to replace the drive shaft to the upgraded model that is now in 2010 and up. Of course many ignored this recall, now you have to pay for a new driveshaft and install if you are not mechanically inclined. Also you talked about alignment, FJ cruisers are notorious for having the cambolt rust in place, so you have to replace the lower control arm or live with the out of alignment. Have discovered this first hand, it remains rusted in place..lol

  • @Hybris51129
    @Hybris51129 4 месяца назад

    If I can offer some tips from another daily driver off roader: 1. Cheap rims with street or much less aggressive off road tread. Swap out your good tires and either store them in the garage or even in the house with a cloth draped over it and wood board over that. In any case having the second set of tires to take the bulk of the daily miles will save your good rubber for the trips that need it. 2. Build with daily driving in mind. Swallow your pride and build with the idea that all the nice shelves and drawers will need to either come out or at least be emptied often for the daily drive. It makes the pre-trip stuff take longer but you will be happier in between trips. Not to mention its less stuff for car thieves to grab should that be a problem in your area. 3. You should get to know your local U-Haul. Their trailers are a cheap way to add space as needed and learning how your rig handles the extra load may be useful. If that isn't enough then renting a truck is always an option for a bit more. 4. Know your limits. This for me saved the most money because as much as it sometimes hurt to tell my friends that I couldn't follow their dedicated rigs down some trails because I knew it was too close to the limit of what mine could handle without entering that danger zone. Pride, ego, and peer pressure really make this one hard to swallow but it's better than breaking things that you can't afford to replace at that time.

For the miles I have, and how clean mine is, stock will keep value best. And I've done a ton of offroading for the last 20 years in many vehicles. Most important are the tires, and I did put on Goodyear Duratrac tires (which I've used on many of my past offroaders). Always fun to customize though too!

    As a new FJ owner, mine had an overcoat done on the frame where I bought it. The other issues, having a stronger cargo door would be nice i agree. As for blind spots this is easily fixed. I havent even put blindspots on yet, i drive an ambulance everyday. Its not a big deal for me. Parking, just back into parking spots. Regardless of the car youre in. Theres literally so many benefits by backing in. Suicide doors are fun, sliding rear windows would be nice however. My only gripes is honestly factory standard grille brush guard, instead of optional, and a few more factory switches in some of the dead space. Although a hidden factory winch mount wouldve been a nice factory option as well

  • @joeylujan6293
    @joeylujan6293 6 месяцев назад

    Thanks for sharing your review. I don't understand how contacting (pushing up against) the canvas causes it to leak. Is it coming through the canvas fabric, through a seam or through a zipper? I couldn't imagine over 6 feet tall and cramming myself into the regular size IO RTT, at 5'7" my toes hit the top. I bought mine used and the previous owner added a wooden dowel into the awning flap and that makes it functional. Definitely worth the effort because as you mentioned it pretty worthless when it's sagging. I have noticed that some of the seam tape has come apart but I'm not exactly sure how old the tent is or if it was caused by abuse. Thanks again for the review.

    • @Caleb-Nall
      @Caleb-Nall 6 месяцев назад

      It definitely is coming through the canvas. It leaked through during a HEAVY rainstorm, and think it was too much while i was up against it. I haven't had any trouble so far with the seam tape peeling off. I will have to watch for that down the road.

      Tent canvas doesn't do well when you lean up against it for long periods of time. It'll always allow moisture in when you are up against it. Since I'm so tall and my feet were up against it all night. It allowed a decent amount of moisture in through the night. If you are shorter I really doubt you would have the same issue!
