PuckerFactor's Slow but Steady 07 FJC build

Our plan with the Fjc is to make it our DD/offroading vehicle.
We plan on running no larger then 33" tires, completely armor it and eventually run an inchworm crawl box for that extra gear reduction
We do ALOT of offroading and TONS of camping.



Here it is stock.


First I removed the mud flaps and clearanced the exhaust.
I forgot to take pics after these two steps but its nothing big.

Next was painting and installing the Bent Up sliders and installing the OME 3" front lift as well as the toytech stock ride 2" springs in the rear.





I will update as I modify/add more aftermarket parts.

A Bent Up winch Bumper and skid plates will be installed down the road AFTER we get some tires!

BentUp is a NorCal Fab shop that specializes in custom toyota Solid axles and armor for pretty much anything. They used to sponser our annual rubicon springs dinner over @ TTORA, but that run has been put off for now.
