These are great bang for the buck weekend warrior upgrades.
Thank you for this walk around video. You’ve cleared up many questions that I had, particularly the wheel/tire combo that you are running.
Great to hear!
Best off road truck ever. I love my 2010 FJ.
You guys are awesome.... Always love your videos. Be safe and healthy you two. Love ya..!!
Love ya back!
IMHO The White Bezel on the front grille is perfect.Paying Respect to The FJC family Granddaddy..The Immortal FJ40. This simple Modification should be required by any owner. Love your channel and your onscreen chemistry.Thumbs up!
You thanks! We like it too. 😁
Really enjoy and appreciate y'all videos! Cheers 🍻
Much appreciated!
I have the very same model and year. No mechanical issues, just hot 200k miles on the clock and I love it.
Thanks for sharing. Loving my '07 Sun Fusion!
Our pleasure!
Awesome truck! I had a 2013 that I loved and still miss.
Thanks!
Awesome FJ I watched all your FJ build videos. I'm getting an FJ next spring.
Right on!
really like the rear door table great idea
I'm glad you like it
I love you guys!! You guys are the best!! been seeing your videos for a few years already
Thanks so much!
Great build guys 👍
Glad you like it
Thanks for sharing 👍
Thanks for watching
I love this video, and all your other videos i will fix up my 2012 fj like this or similar to it
THANKS!!!
Nice 👍
I'm buying one!!!! Basic maintenance 👌 no problem with upkeep and this truck is underrated! I'm going 6" lift with a 26x16 American force wheel on a 35" tire.
Good choice!
Hey guys. Nice to see the old FJ. Here's some info on the stay bar disconnects. I contacted the guy about having some made for my FJ some years ago. He told me he was not making them anymore. That's a real bummer. Fjs are really flex challenged. Steve from So Cal.
Steve Green hi, yes he is still is making them.
Awesome
Thanks!
Thought you had done more to your FJ. I definitely want to change the headlights to LEDs you installed. I will have to check out that Costco fridge. We have the RCI skids and a different fold table on the back door. I changed the panhard bar and the rear lower control arms with Resfab ones. Looking at putting Billstein shocks for a 2 inch lift soon. We have 119K on our 07 and we are the third owners (and last). Have you thought about doing a video on the maintenance you did, whether it broke, or wore out or you just decided to upgrade with an after market part (I know you listed some)?
FJ Awesome Cruiser!
We agree!
Hopefully i get to keep my FJ for as long as you guys! Great build and how to Videos as well!
Not sure where you guys are located but looking at that rust on your frame and underbody you should really coat that with some Fluid Film or Woolwas or something similar. It's amazing and keeps the undercarriage looking young.
Short and to the point. Loved the video, you two.
PS: Oh yeah, I almost forgot, Funny as always!! :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Kiss Kiss! 👋
Hahahaha "filled up with mostly just his MAN JUNK"
Hey!!! Long time no see guys
Hello nice set up you guys have, I was wondering how have you connected the jerry can holder and where would I be able get one ,thankyou
We mad a custom bracket to bolt it on. We produced a video on it. Search for Jerry Can Holder.
Why have both the 4Runner and the FJ? It sounds like the FJ came first. Was the 4Runner just a round 2 build? Are you getting rid of the FJ at some point? You should do a video on FJ versus 4Runner and which one you prefer for certain vehicle items/options.
Thanks for the FJ walk around hilarious and informative as always, I remeber 2 years back when I was searching for solutions on a kill switch and came across your stabilaty hack video, been subcribed ever since. Keep up the awesome videos.
BTW, which is better off road you FJ or 4runner?
Thanks for watching Marc! For offroad use the shorter wheelbase and better approach angle make the FJ a bit more nimble. But the interior space of the 4Runner is a winner too!
Could I ask for help on something? What is the thickness of the fender flare 2” or 3”? Don’t have mine anymore and trying to dial in the lift without exceeding a 3” lift. (Been running 35’s for so long)
Just saw your video cool mods! Where might I find the basket you incorporated in the stock luggage rack? Cheers!
It's just a cheap one we found on Amazon.
We need more 4runner videos.
Hey Wanderlost Overland, thanks for the video and advice, I love your FJ!. Just wondering as an FJ owner in the salt belt, given all of the upgrades you've put in, do you have a plan to handle the frame/under body rust? Cheers!
PS, do you mind linking those sliders?
We spray it down with FluidFilm, but lately we haven't been driving it in the winter much.
Rock'nRoll
Hey, you didn't call them Maxa pads this time lol
Do you have a video on the rear window net? Also, what mount are you using for your cb?
Nope, sorry no video on the net. One of these days we may produce one though. The mount is one we fabed in our shop. Sorry, no video for it either. For it we bent some thin sheetmetal and bolted it to the dash behind the trim piece.
Looks like mine
I need one of those window nets! Great job guys
Thanks Bryan!
the Smittybilt gas can holder- how did you mount that to the spare tire carrier? is there an adapter for that, or did you fabricate a plate mount that uses the wheel stud positions? Love your videos. Thank you for your time.
Here's the video where we made it: ruclips.net/video/lp9EXF-8l6A/видео.html
Wanderlost Overland thank you so much
You two are pretty funny. Dunno how I found your channel but I just subscribed. I'm considering getting larger tires on my 13 FJ and will need a BMC. I don't have a lift and would like to avoid getting one at least for the time being. The tires are 33.5x10.5 which are 2 inches taller than OEM but the same width. Pizza cutters!!! I think I will need at least one inch of chop. Did you get that when you chopped? How many inches were you ultimately able to gain from no-chop to second chop. I can't find this info anywhere. If I can't do these particular 33's without a lift then I may consider 285's which are 32.7x11.2. I think those have a chance of no-rubbing with a BMC and no lift. Thanks and I look forward to getting caught up on your videos.
I think you'll do fine with a just slight chop with the narrow tires. It's normally the width that causes the problem. The reason we had to do such a drastic chop is because we're running 1 1/4" wheel spacers so our rims clear the brake calipers. Let us know how it turns out!
Awesome vehicle! Which vehicle do you prefer off road? FJ or the 4Runner?
Both!
How did yall mount the jerry can to the spare?

I want the rear window net for dogs ….
Mark and Marri since ur FJ is over 235K miles how many times have u change the Automatic Transmission fluid..drop the pan and change filter or just drain and fill?.. i ask because my FJ is approaching 100K and i don’t know if I should just drain and fill or change the filter as well....thank you....u guys ROCK!👍🏽
Thanks for watching Mel! We didn't do anything with the fluid up until around 190,000 when we started experiencing the infamous shudder. At that point we had our dealership do a full flush with all new fluid. that took care of the shudder and all is well since. I think with our 4Runner we're going to have it flushed at 100,000.
My shirt would say RUclips Certified Floor M.A.T.
What is the brand of the UCA? JBA? Thanks
SPC
What basket rack is that?
It's just a cheap one we found on Amazon. It matched the width we needed pretty close.
Did y’all regear?
No, but it's on the borderline of needing to.
How many miles are on the FJ now?
160K
Make that 260K
Goofy looking? I guess I’ve lost confidence in your opinions now. The FJ Cruiser is the MOST awesomely designed off-road vehicle, PERIOD! (At least IMHO). Nevertheless, don’t just fish to get kudos from the Jeep haters at the expense of this awesomely, handsome, rugged-looking vehicle.
I have the very same model, color and year. No mechanical issues, just hot 200k miles on the clock and I love it.
