theKaptn's "The Wretched"

Well, slowly but surely this thing is coming together. Got the suspension installed on my one day off, thanks to CMX Industries (Houston)

here is a list of the goodies so far...

Fabtech 6" Lift
Dirtlogic 2.5 Coilovers
Kumho Road Venture A/T 325/60/20
KMC Revolvers 20" Negative Offset
AVIC-D3 Head-unit
Alpine PDX 4.100
Focal 165V3E Components (4" + 6" in doors, 1" in dash")
8k HID Headlights

Will post more pics, next time she is clean and I have a camera

Sorry about the pic, its my cell phone

and plenty more to come....
Front and rear bumpers
Subwoofers
Roofrack
Intake/Exhaust

By the way the new suspension rides just like stock, and for those wondering about the 35" tires and rubbing..... NONE! Not even when I was screwing off driving through the ditch and had it tucked in did it rub. Turning radius is practically the same, maybe lost a little. But all in all I am in love with the Fabtech kit.

Nope, they just plugged in where the old ones were. So yes, I am blinding everyone on the road. Eh, What can you do?

Thanks guys! I have had a great time looking at everyone's rig out there and well, I guess, I just felt jealous as all hell

Yeah, It's a moral dilemma, but I try not to get on anyone's rear at night. I got them because I usually have to take insane back roads to get to jobs and these puppies light up the road perfectly. I really hope to soon get a roof rack and put some riding lights up there.

Nice Revolver wheels, the website Wheelsnext.com says they don't fit the FJ, whats the specs and were there any problems?

Also I would remove that baby spare and tuck it inside where its safe and sound.

Arrrggghhhh matey! Looks good Kapt'n!

Thanks Raptor, I have been having a blast driving it around. Even our here at the rig, people keep coming up to it checking it out, then they ask me "what the hell is this thing", of course with my extra 3 inches of chest I say "That's a bad muther****er"

Didn't have any problems mounting the tires, rims were 6 on 125.

And yes I know about my little baby on the back, My buddy wasn't able to break a set for me last week because I bought his last set of revolvers. Sooo gotta wait til next time I am off work to drive back home and pick up my full size better child.
