| Hardbody FJ40
Mounted it up to the HL with 2.2s and it looks almost dead on. Put it on a bruiser frame w/Pede and it looks like it would take more cutting of the interior than I want to do. Maybe an R2 on one of Dean's crossmembers. The body alone weighs in @ 2lbs. 7.8oz.!!!! |

Yeah I'll be taking care of that soon......I'm pretty sure you can guess what color I'll be going for.....I'll give you a hint....not hot pink. Winch/bumper/sliders for sure. |

And now on a stock Bruiser frame with the radio box removed. Absolutely no hacking to the interior and it's a near perfect fit. It will be a challenge to find space for electronics but it should be worth it in the end. |

That looks really good on the hi lift chassis. I was pretty impressed with the detail.
