The story begins back in October of 2006, I was on my way home from Lake Tahoe. My girlfriend and I saw an FJ roll by on the freeway...it was my first glimpse of the FJC and I was intrigued, so we went to the Folson dealership and test drove a Black FJ with a 3" OME lift. I knew I had to have one.

The first Mod I did to the rig was the steps...man I made a big mistake there buying plastic steps (live and learn). The rig was my daily driver for the first year. Then I found the blue room, trolled around for a few months and decided I needed a front bumper a beefy front bumper...and what's beefier than an ARB??? That's right nothing! So I bought the ARB with a Smitty Built 8K winch. (July 09)
I think that's where the addiction to modding started...Over the next few months, I started looking at the classifies on the Blue room...Bought a Rough Country 6" lift, a Fab Fours Rear bumper, a Waag insert basket, Trail Gear slides, All-Pro Four Hole Air Damn, installed a Pioneer Avic touch screen system with 2x 400-watt Fosgate amps, 2x 10" pro JBL subs with component speakers all around.
