How do you like the FZJ80? There are a couple for sale local, and I kinda want to build one as a trail only truck.

I really like the 80.It's a roomy fun truck with alot of creature comforts.If i was going to build a trail only vehicle it would be a buggy or another toyota pickup/4runner.
I'm at the point that i wanted an all around vehicle.One that i could comfortably drive across the country and wheel all week and drive back home.My 4runner was a blast and i would take it on any trail but i would not drive it more than a couple of hours to get there:whaa:
If all goes well i will drive the 80 to Moab in a few weeks.:)

Any more pics or info on how the fenderwell bars attach? I am very curious about those!

They connect to the sliders with the same type of connectors and with a bolt from underneath the bumpers

Thanks for all the complements:cheers:

We had about two years to plan this build and we jumped in with both feet.I have alot of little things to do before Moab but i will easily make it.
The plan is to drive both trucks out for Black Sheep week in few weeks:gaah:
