Been lurking and occasionally posting on the forum for a good while. I got my Titanium 4x4 AT fully loaded on April 27th. I live just north/east of McKinney and work in Las Colinas. I have 2 year old daughter who claims to own the FJ and tells me every day that “My FJ is in the Garage” or “Let’s go for a ride in my FJ” and a 4 month old son.
I have been really enjoying my FJ, when I am not driving it I am usually building something to go on it, or scramming on the next batch of purchased parts.
Arranging a get-together and possibly some trips would be great.
Mods to date
Home made Second Battery System with Optima Blue Top.
Second under dash fuse block to power in cab components from second battery
Home made copy of the “Bandi” antenna mount.
Cobra 75 WX ST All-in-handset Mobile CB
Home made plexi-glass wedge mount adapter for Valitine1 Radar Detector
Sirius S50 Sat Receiver – still looking for ideal mounting solution here.
Pile of parts currently in my shop
AllPro Bumper – Needs Powder Coating
Warm M8000
AmSteel Synthetic Winch Rope
Spidertrax Aluminum Fairlead
IPF 968CS Off-Road Lights – Already Installed Wiring harness for this.
Next Steps

285/65/17 have not chosen exact model yet.
Gobi Ranger Roof Rack (Mostly to carry Military Style Fuel Cans)

Custom Powder Coat in Dallas will do the bumper for $125. Ask for Steve (owner) and tell him Graham sent you. He should remember the FJ and the bumper, it was just a couple of weeks ago.
I'm not an owner yet, I've been looking around these boards for helpful information when it comes purchase time. I posted a similar message on another thread but I haven't heard back yet so I'm posting it here. Has anyone here taking the 2WD out on trails yet? I'm trying to decide between the 4x2 and 4x4 and want to know if the 2WD will be able to handle some reasonable stuff.
By the way, I live in downtown Dallas and I work as a software developer in Addison.
Hey guys, have a 4x4 mt black cherry on its way...Should be in by Thursday. Live in Abilene, TX but will be attending Baylor University in Waco, TX in the fall. I can get to the DFW area from Waco in under two hours so I'd be more than willing to make the drive for a meet/wheelin' trip. Just checking in.
I'm honestly not that sure. I've joined the "BDC" (Baylor Driving Club) and there are some members who are solely off-road oriented that I've talked to...Apparently there are small places here and there but there's supposed to be a big well-known park outside of Bryan that's less than an hour drive from Waco. Hit me up whenever you're in Waco and we'll hopefully take a trip down there. (I'm 19 also).
