DominicG's Voodoo Death - Redux

Bought it July 21, 2006. Currently 29,0xx miles on the odo, and its my daily driver (yeah, i don't drive far, work is 1 mile away, college is 5 miles away).

Brand Spankin New!


It has a few names.. the "Voodoo Death" thread title, its just my attention grabbing method. I don't refer to it in 3rd person like it's a person. But i do like to show off.


The Driver:

What can i say? I have an FJ.. thats about it.





My FJ is built up of mostly used mods.. much cheaper.
A special thanks to the members i have bought used parts from:

RicoVerde: Bandi mount (new actually)
TCao: Sliders (Thanks Bud!!)
Lifeoffroad03: OME rear shocks
Wrigman: OME 885 springs
Air2air: Warn M8000 w/ kevlar line (Dude My FJ is part-uber now)
A member whos name i forget: TRD CAI
Sparman: Set of stock stealies
VooDooRocky: Donahoes!
kcsterling: MAF Sliders
mir207: Total Chaos UCA's
JDEMELLO: Front skid plate
I'm sure there is more...


As she sits today..:


And now a more recent pic:

Suspension/Shoes:


Update:
Now running 315/70/17 BFG A/T's on the stock stealies.

The lift started out with a 3" spacer up front, and OME lift springs in back. I eventually put some OME shocks in the back to replace the to short stockers. About 10 months later i finally got around to replacing the HORRIBLE spacers. OME N140s shocks and 885 springs went in, lasted for about 600 miles, and blew one shock. Currently saving for some Icon's or Radflo's (can't decide).

Update:
Now running ICON coilovers up front, and no more swaybar in back.

Spacered:


OME'd:


ICON'd w/ 315's:


Armor:

Update:
Got rid of the stock front skid and put a Demello skid in place.

Traded the OME sliders for Man-a-Fre sliders, then sold them. They weighed about 10 tons each Currently I am Slider-less, and don't plan on getting sliders in the future.

And the only other piece of armor that i have, are the Overland XT (cowboy 4x4) Lower Shock guards.

*Click for lower mount guards*


UPDATE 4-19

Recovery:

Previously had the Lucrum Winch mount w/ lightbar. AWESOME Quality! But sold it because i wanted a better approach angle. Picked up a Demello 3 hoop bumper.

Other stuff:

-Hi-Lift Jack w/ WabFab Slider Adapter.
-Hitch reciever w/ smittybuilt 3/4 shackle.
-AAA Card.


Current DO Bumper:


Former Lucrum Mount (this is the picture on the back of the socal FJ t-shirts)



Camping Stuff:

ARB Touring Rack and Touring Tent *Click for INSTALL thread*


and Camping Lab Awning:


Just the Rack:
