Awwww man I was so hoping to see you take Godzilla out for some snow drifting like @ the end of Part 1.
Great hi-tech mods very well thought out. But come on give us a little treat will ya? Your FJ looks so awesome drifting in the snow. Thanks for putting this up!
Well, the snow is long gone up here fortunately. You'll have to wait for next winter.
Great setup!
Thanks!
well planned build. very meticulous! thanks for posting. just bought an older FJC and hoping to build it similar to this.

Glad it was helpful!
The antena for signal also boosts your tinnitus and a few years later you cant find peace and quiet anymore...good luck trying to sleep in the future...this goes for all antenas and tech in general that uses some sort of electrical waves
Great set up brother, slowly but surely getting there myself. Watched your video early on about the orange box saddle mount for the comms, gotta say without a doubt one of the best things in the ingenuity dept. All i need now is to find the moneytree to complete my mods!...
Good luck!
Great Work! Enjoyed the viewing and education.
Thank You!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
A very nice build.👍 Really enjoy the black and green color scheme such an awesome looking build. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you like it. There are more in depth articles on our website if interested.
I'm looking at getting the Titan Trail Trekker ll spair tank. I'm calling them next week about their product for the FJ. Thank you for sharing. Daniel
Right on
Can't wait for you to do a vid on the internal drawer/platform build. I will be doing exactly the same as yours. Well done mate!!!
fat samurai Coming soon
You probably dont give a damn but does anybody know a tool to log back into an instagram account??
I somehow lost my password. I love any help you can offer me
@Oscar Carson Instablaster ;)
@Huxley Ian thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now.
Takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Huxley Ian It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out !
You have an wxcellent set up.
I’m almost there, about 18% behind you.
My roofnest takes up my entire frontline roof rack though, so I’m not sure if I can fit the lights and awnings like you.
Love watching your videos!
My RoofNest is on the way finally. It's the same dimensions as my BajaRack so I may have to get creative. But I will upload a video review of the process.
Are the plans/dimensions available for those drawers? Looking to fill a COVID void myself.
Just a suggestion, don't put drinking water cans outside, it's going to make the water taste bad if it's got sun exposure.
The exterior mounted water is for cleaning and rinsing dishes, washing hands, etc. Not drinking.
Holy shit our fj are almost the same truck. Have a look at my walk around
Almost the same? They put your damn steering wheel on the wrong side mate! Very cool FJ. Love those rear gull-wing windows. Very sharp. Thanks for checking out our YT channel. Be sure to visit our website from time to time if you like outdoor gear.

@@thegearbunker9842 i was thinking they put yours on the wrong side 😉 . Will do mate .
What roof rack you have? Also wondering if you did all that your self? If not which part you didn’t ... awesome build clap clap
Its a BajaRack. And yes, I did all of the work myself. Thanks!
Buy a warn winch remote control plug and play no need open hood I have one but I have Arab front bumper
I didn't realize this at first but the Warn VR EVO is wireless. I just needed to remove the cord from the controller and pair with the winch. So more more popping the hood for me.
Great build with attention to detail. I'm in the midst of building mine up. Looking forward to seeing your sleeping platform build - I already have a drawer system, but I do have a question: what is the mount you're using for the Rotopax? Cheers.

@@thegearbunker9842 Thanks!
Where did you get the rubber straps that hold up the kinetic on your OrangeBoxx driver-side panel? Super slick, I have the same panel and want my recovery rope out of the way similar to how you've got it! thanks

Hello nice set up,how did you install the water/ petrol bracket where did you get it from thankyou.

Great video, who makes the bracket for the robopax mount, thanks.

Is the custom compressor bracket available to buy somewhere. Awesome rig
I wound someone who manufactures them through a facebook FJ Group
I want to put scene lights as well but I'm not sure how to wire them. Did you go through the cab through the rear door? Or back through the windhsield up front?
My FJ originally had roof lights that were removed with the OEM rack. So I re-used the original wire already passing through the roof. Then made a custom wiring harness for the lights.
Where did you get that rear cooking gas tank holder from, to the right of the spare wheel?
It's in the article: www.thegearbunker.com/overland-built-fj-cruiser-walk-around-part-2/
Can you post the link to propane tank and mount - how did you mount it ?
DANNYGZERO All the links will be in the article on the website when it publishes tomorrow. Thanks

Great video and awesome build. Are you running 4.56 or 4.88 and how's the mpg?
Mark Miguel 4.56 gears and mileage is shitty, ha! It’s a loaded FJ with 35’s. So around 12MPG.
How did you mount the Ram Mount!?!
Which Ram mount? I have some clamped to the grab handles for a phone. And another screwed into the dash to hold the tablet.
Does this set up work for overland touring? I don’t intend on going on any “missions” but would need to build something for my FJ to allow me to go 4x4 and camping ?
I designed this for Overland travel. When I say mission, that's just the former Army Ranger talking.
@@thegearbunker9842 Hell yeah brother thank you for your service!👊🏻 A lot of badass dudes in our military. I’m trying to follow in my grandpas foot steps and join the Marines hopefully, He was a Vietnam vet so I’ll definitely have it a lot easier than they did!😂
I'm on the fence about front lockers for my FJ. Do you find yourself using your front lockers often? I've always been able to use A-TRAC to get myself out. So, I'm not sure it's worth the cost. What's your opinion?
Probably don't need the front locker. I had to re-gear for the 35" tires so it would have been stupid for me not to add the front air locker while the differential was open. I've used it once so far.
What’s the name of the product you used to coat the steel bumper?
Raptor Liner. Purchased on Amazon.
