FROM THE DEALER
2007 Toyota FJ Cruiser
Black Diamond. Fully loaded with
TRD Package...
Fresh from Rockland toyota. 08/11/07
1st set of wheels TRD Silver.
FJ, Wife and Me
Mods:
First thing I removed was the spare tire cover. I want my TRD wheels to show . Next was the grill bezel, I color matched it to the body. then i Purchased the biggest front bull bar that i could find, the most expensive side step (Realwheels) just for the side step alone cost me over $800 dunno anything about offroading. that's why im putting lots of unnecessary parts. installed the side step on top of the OEM sliders I thought i was the coolest FJ on the road hahahaha... next was the grill guard with 2 yellow hella 500s. Also Installed TRD Cold air intake and Poweraid throttle body spacer. Manik Tail light guards
2nd set of wheels. 16x9 Helo 842 with my original BFG 265/75/16
sold it before i even install it on my FJ. used the money to buy a 3" rough country lift kit, full set of TRD SE Bilstein Shocks (Red and Blue), Always wanted a TRD SE. so I Started to build my Own TRD SE.
3rd set of wheels. TRD SE Gun metal gray.
lift was already installed.
I was just test fitting the new KM2 315/75R16 on my 16" TRD SE wheels. doesn't fit. rubbed big time on the body mount. I ended up buying the 305/70R16 BFG Mud/ terrains KMs. also installed the roof air dam with lights. in this photo they are not yet wired :whistle: lights don't work.. too afraid to drill a hole in the roof.. but, i eventually did the wiring.. ordered axe and shovel mount, 60" Hi-lift Jack and Gobi Ladder :stars:
Powder coated my Bling plate
Thanks to Mike (Shadow warrior) for helping me with my snorkel + TRD CAI install. gave me a list of parts needed and a step by step installation instruction. Mike you are an awesome guy!!! Thanks for all your Help.
After that. Ordered bushwackers pocket style fender flares and the ARB snorkel. I customized the passenger side flares to work with my snorkel. then off to line-x shop including my side mirrors and door handles.
Removed the roof rack for line-x coating

I ordered 17x9 Mickey Thompson wheels + 35" KM2s @ OK4WD.
Now i have to use an OEM 17" wheels for over a month while i was waiting for the NEW 17x9 Mickey Thompson sidebiter wheels to arrive with BFG KM2s 35x12.5 :thumbup:
I count this as my 5th set of wheels
while I was waiting for my wheels.. I saw a great deal on a set of fox 2.5 front coilovers. from FJwill :thumbup: he wants my KM tires i want his coilovers.. so we made a fair trade :thumbup: he also installed the coilovers for me
At FJwill's House
same day after i got the coilovers i went straight to OK4WD to pick up my new wheels and tires. Later on I had Bronx auto body do my body mount chop. came out great!! look stock too. :thumbup:
6th set of wheels: 17x9 Mickey Thompson SideBiter wrapped in 35x12.5 BFG KM2s.
Digital TPMS. this will help me locate the tire that needs attention.
while i was at OK4WD i also picked up these goodies.
I also got the Lucrum winch Bumper from Chris @ Lucrum
Now time to install these goodies.. Tuan stopped by to give me a hand with my bumper and winch install.
I missed Tuan :shrug:.... the next day I shipped my black front bumper Valance to NBFJCruz :drummer:
put back all the front bumper parts that we removed..
I traded my OEM rock rails step assist attachment to this.
Got the Mpac rack from Singha.

Now i decided to upgrade my rear suspension.. went to the Bronx and ask santi for advise.. later that day we decided to order 2 sets of allpro 3.5 rear coils and airlift airbags. 1 for and 1 for him..
Santi and Siri Helped me install my new rear suspension. while we were at it i also installed Digger'ds lower control arm skids and FJtoyman's Ultimate shocks skids.
^^^ Notice the High tuck TRD Exhaust system. it's also Custom made
Fill mount for the airlift airbags.^^
I said to myself, something is wrong with my underbelly.. it's naked :slaphead:
called bud built for these FJ Underpants :thumbup: also ordered the Total Chaos front LCA armor.
Notice here, My radiator was exposed.. called bud about it and i gave him measurements. he fabricated a front filler plate for lucrum bumper :drummer:
prototype was sent to me :bow:
also time to upgrade my front driving lights to HIDs
I had to fabricate a mount on my OEM brush guard to fit this large driving lights.

Expedition One Rear Bumper. I was the last person to buy on the group buy :clapping:
I had to flipped my spare mount upside down to fit my 35" spare.
Here you see i fixed the lower part of my bushwacher flares to wrap around nicely on the rear bumper
My Evil HOOK :voodoo:
Powder coated Hi-Lift Jack
Custom made roof rack mounted fire extinguisher.
Well after installing the rear E1 bumper, 2 spare wheels with 35" tires, Bud BUilt Gas tank skids and some offroad gears the weight adds up and my rear started to Sag. Airbag lift is not helping anymore..
so i had to removed the air bag and re-install the stock bump stop. I used 3.5 allpro rear coils plus 1.5" daystar rear coil spacers.
Extended SS brake lines. no more sag. to compensate for the new height. ordered a custom made adjustable rear links UCAs and LCAs from ToyOUtFitters.com problem solved!!!
ToyOutfitters Rear UCAs, LCAs and custom weld on Ruff Stuff Rear LCAs mount.
THank you to Mr. Dave Crum for installing my ruff stuff weld on rear LCA Mounts..
Billet aluminum locking fuel filler door. Thanks to Adele (LUNA) for the link
TRD Fuel Cap, next to it is my extended rear diff breather..
^^^ I removed all the cosmetic plastic bolts around my wheels. I broke some of em from our last pine barrens run where everything was frozen. still my 7th wheel. my 8th wheels will be beadlocked wrapped in 35x12.5 nitto mud grapplers.
future Mods:
1. TRD Super Charger...
2. 9th set of wheels + new tires.. got it.. pro comp rock crawler wheels with 35" nitto mud grapplers
3. Road Armor front BUmper with Titan GUard. Got it :-)
