Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Larry and I are set up now. We both have a scorpion rack to keep our stuff secure

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Great work Thomas.

Do you still have easy access to the CO2 and fire extinguisher on the wheel well?

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Cowboy4X4 I am overwhelmed at your talent! You have one mighty fine rig Sir.

You seem to be the man to figure out the most puzzling issue with the FJ. I am sure with your talent you could help us all and figure out how to open up the rear passenger windows.

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

all of the bars on the scorpion rack are out of the the way for easy access to the co2, fire ext., and you can still open the little door to get to your factory jack, all without removing the scorpion rack.


If I ever have some extra money it would be nice to get a hold of an old side door and figure out how to make the window open. I'm still of the idea that a pop out window is the only way to go like the old vw's had.


Thanks Volhoo...enjoy.....Thomas

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Here is multi purpose tool I added to my expedition recovery gear it is called a predge. It is a cross between a prybar and a crosspeen sledge. It is has a three pound head and weighs 5 pounds total and is 28" end to end .

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Thomas is fun to hang with because he is always coming up with cool ideas for the FJ and for things to accessorize the FJ.

Now that you have the new tool, you have to hit something with it...

I believe cowboy has figured out the solution to the rear window conundrum.

I would have just named it the "BFH". A universal tool used in all languages and cultures.

Re: Cowboy4x4 fj build up

Like I told larry . The mount seems to be a really great invention. You obviously have way too much time on your hands
Great job .. ohh and the BFH seems like it would be a really great trail tool
Thanks
Don
