just swooped up a 2008 FJ from a local dealership that had it in shop for less than a few days. its a bit ugly but fixable. when i got there i looked underneath and the frame/exhaust HAS ABSOLUTELY ZERO RUST/WEAR it is insane how awesome it is. they are giving me new tires and a brand new windshield. the paperwork is done and im waiting for the call to come pick it up. i am beyond excited to build mine. only 105k miles to boot! i feel for 18k i found an absolute GEM
I bought my 2014 in York, PA and am just starting to get into cars. This is an inspiring vid! I hope someday to have the knowledge and tools to do my own work. You made the front bumper look so easy! Awesome truck.
I still have my 2007 2wd FJ just got it back from Hail Damage repairs. Had major orange peel from factory paint . Thanks Hail !!! Your video just really inspired me to lift and a few other things, great job dude !!! Thank you for the video and your explanations !!! Peace
Brother, well done on the video, and the FJ looks great. My favorite parts was the bumper, and getting a glance as to how much work that would be. Subscribed!
@@initiatedrift Yes they are. Have do know what all the additional plugs on the wiring harness are by location inside? I have a 2010 I stripped the inside. So I can add kill mat and re wire the stereo etc. I found out I've got the auxiliary plugs for sonar auxiliary roof lights, subwoofer and steering wheel. I've got one last plug in the back on the left corner below the lights that I don't know what it is.
Best thing you can do for your truck is clean the frame and soray it with fluid film or something similar. Do not use restolium or por15 at this point.
Great job and thank you for the vid! Which Eiback lift kit is this specifically and how has it been since its install? Is the lift still even, are there any creaking noises and does the fj lean on the driver's side?
Hey Man - Really liked the way you installed all the things to the beast. How can I get in touch with you. I have couple of questions as I am planning to buy one. Thx...
Did those heated seats come with the leather? Or you put leather on separately. I don’t need heated here in Ariz desert, but that leather is trick !! Appreciate seeing the process if you covered them yourself and I could do my stock (non-heated) seat. SUPER job on this build. Subscribed !!

Solid work. Make sure to treat that rust sooner than later. My 07 looked similar and leaving it too much longer would’ve left me with a bad frame.
So dope!!! Thanks for not doing a five minute talk track! Love seeing the progress!
Bro the Nardi wheel threw me! I didn’t even know you could do that in cars like this! I’m so hype I’m getting an FJ soon
Badass! I can’t believe you like made that bumper and it looks great! Great work man!
Most impressive. Skills and video was no fluff. I literally want an FJ way more than 15 minutes ago
Thank you!
I love all the 40s laying around. You remind me of a younger version of me
Projects that need to get done!
Great job! I have an 07 AT. The only thing I didn’t care for are the graphics. But I loved the video and your explanations.

Looks great, like the rims, the height is just right, that's the look I'm looking for, good job

Sweet! Your 4k would cost me 8k at a shop, or more! Nice work, great skills!!
Man you are amazing. Thank you for the step by step process.

I like the FJs when they first came out .but you know your stuff dude keep posting for us to Learn.
Looks nice man I have a fj too completely stock but can’t wait to add stuff to it
Looks good. I got a fj just like yours and we love it.
i wish i had this talent. Would've saved me a fortune.
Gotta learn by just doing it. One thing at a time.
That was awesome work. It looks really good 🤙🏻. Good job on the bumper 👍🏻.
Thanks! I’m not the best at welding but it turned out ok
Amazing work Broham!

Great job! The bumper turned out fantastic.
Thanks!
@@initiatedriftwhere did you order winch bumper and cost. Thanks
I want to see more FJ content like this
Good job, also love the Boxer. I have two. Great dogs..
They’re the best

@@pcoc8694 I’m not sure what it’s for, sorry.
Great job with the mods! You made it look so easy
Did you end up doing the one and a half inch wheel spacers you said you were considering?
Very inspiring build! Thanks for posting. Mine is still mostly stock. But brother, what were you thinking with those decals.
Nicely done so far brotha. Keep it up
What is the lift at the front and the back in cm
And what size of tires do you have there is it 315 or 285 ?
Nice work on the bumper/ bulbar
Seriously sounds 1000000X better
Great job!!!
I envy you have this nice SUV!!
The exhaust, is it assembled with clamps or does it require welding for all the pieces. Thank you.
Nice. I need you to do mine. You do good work
Great video, great skills mate! What leather seat cover did you go with, they look like they fit well.
Nice work man! That FJ looks sick.
Looks good, mine’s black and white like yours. Looking forward to see the transformation. Oh, try to include prices. Thumbs up!
Thanks for sharing looks Awesome!
you do very good job could you help me with the size of the tires I want exact ones to yours where did you buy them
Well done lad 👍🏻
Cool stuff.
Where did you get your front number from
Coastal off-road
Hey man, great video and a great build. Looking forward to some adventure videos with it in the future. Cheers 🤘
Nice job mate ,
Great job
Nice! Looks great. I just got the same FJ, but not going that aggressive yet. It mainly pulls my Bass boat.
Dope build, bro!
You make it look easy
Best thing you can do for your truck is clean the frame and soray it with fluid film or something similar. Do not use restolium or por15 at this point.
Nice work. Looks awesome.
Looking
Good! Does it have a subwoofer in the back ? I have a 2008 fj that looks similar. I love the white graphic decals too.
I can imagine it must have cost a fortune. These things are worth their weight in gold lately
I actually got a decent deal and paid $11500
Anybody know where to get those leather seat covers?
Hello, excellent work, I hope to be able to do something similar, congratulations. Blessings.
Wow you are handy. Good job.
Looks pretty sick
Very nice! Love the fake Mello Bumper. Would you be willing to make another?
Great job and thank you for the vid! Which Eiback lift kit is this specifically and how has it been since its install? Is the lift still even, are there any creaking noises and does the fj lean on the driver's side?
Great build!
Any links to your leather seat covering? Or did you have them upholstered?
Hey Man - Really liked the way you installed all the things to the beast. How can I get in touch with you. I have couple of questions as I am planning to buy one. Thx...
Could you share the lift kit PN ?? Also the model of the wheels please
Amazing job thanks bro for sharing
Looking forward to know abt heated seats setup and work
Heated seats are from Dorman

Very nice.
Good job man!
What bumper kit is that ? Nice build, I’m building an fj too, that thing would look sweet with some bushwhacker fender flares👍🏻 , great work.
GREAT JOB!!💪🏾👍🏾
Awesome job 👍🏻 What a transformation.
Thanks!
Where did you get that tube bender????
Where did u get the leather seat covers from?!

Looks great!
Nice work are you car FJ sons great👍
Nice house.. you have your own forklift and double bay garage?

Did you use metal screws or rivots for the snorkel? I bought the same you did and mine didn’t come with all the parts
