Who works at FMC

In the past few weeks I have seen someone at FMC mod their truck.

The first time I saw it was all stock and just had an ARB roof rack with a high lift attached. Then it got lifted and today I saw it has new tires.

It black and is parked near the SIT area.

Why haven't we seen photos of your monster rig here on the forum?!

Come on, share the love.

Sounds as if you've done a great job modding your FJ.

He has, I have seen it first hand so I second the motion, the motion is thereby agreed upon and passed, C, you have until Friday of next week to make a thread or post some pics here of your fine FJ.

kthxbye!

...get some pics of both rigs together, that would be sweet! I can't wait to get all the lifted FJ's out to Gen Sam's and get a group pic!

Re: Who works at FMC

I guess I have to submit to the motion I've had some good pic's over the past few months, but nothing to really showcase the latest mods which have been the most extreme and outwardly noticeable. And thanks 5x5 for the vote of confidence!

MigZ, do you have your camera with you today? Mine's at home, I didn't even think to grab it this morning...

Uphill, I love what you've done with your FJ, and similar template for mine, especially with respect to you SCUBA driver mods, a big hand all around.

La Morena in Del Rio, TX over the Memorial Day weekend. Stayed in a roach infested hotel the night before, slept only about 3 hrs... It wasn't a pretty sight. I promise to get other images that are more decent when I finally have my camera out with me and in the rough at the same time. Cheers!

Re: Who works at FMC

This is from a few months back. Down on the great Matagorda beach, TX. The TLCC-Houston has staked out a bit of sand here that they go camping at and care for throughout the year. Its about 30 miles of 4x4 accessible only beach, so you get a good feeling of remoteness. This pic is before most of my major mods.
