If no one has said it, thanks for doing an entire build on an episode. TH-camrs have this horrible habit of needing a teaser, a cliffhanger, or a "I can't show you yet" in every single video to keep their audience hooked. Keep doing builds like this and you won't need any gimmicks. Get em Throtl.
@@mathewlepp1723 completely agree. Steps/stages I’m more than ok with, but when something is clearly done, “but I can’t show you” to create some mystique to come back is more what I’m referring to. Stance works is another good one where he’s taking you along as he has things done but doesn’t do a lot of cliff hanging.
Finally got a chance to watch this since I've been on the road all day, but I enjoyed watching y'all transform my FJ. Props to Quinn about noticing the plugs were changed within the past year 😉 But thank you again to the entire crew, I'm still at lost with the right words to express my appreciation. 🤙🤙
I know that drive. done it a few times. By best time from central Texas to LA California was around 17 hours . Congratulations. I need my truck rebuilt and done up right like this.
Throtl deserves much more attention! They look out for a lot of people and they do it by doing what they love. Always a smile on my face while watching ❤️
Congrats Peter!! Was looking forward to seeing this build and I wasn't disappointed. Kudos for riding the Grom from Texas to pick up the FJ too, that's awesome.
I like that you guys not only show what you replace, but that you actually do preventative work while doing these builds. The level of professional care it shows is awesome. Wish I could afford to have you guys work my mk3 supra over for me
Looks awesome! Only problem I can see is the winch install! That front bar is not designed to hold a winch of that size! The first time he uses it under full load it's going to rip itself and the bar off the front of the truck!!
Congratulations to the subscriber to his dream build. Yes! An FJ build! Love the off-road content guys. You guys are killing it! Can’t wait to see a 4Runner build.😀
A lot of great upgrades! Only things i would have changed from an off road prospective are proper frame mounted rock sliders, and an integrated winch bumper. The later could just be personal taste though.
As I was watching this I was wondering why it didn't have proper rocksliders rather than the rock catchers. And why they added a winch to that bumper. Cool that he got a free winch. But that is definitely not a proper way to mount a winch and it isn't going to hold up to being used.
My initial thoughts exactly. Nothing should hang below the rear bumper. Including the rear exiting exhaust. I know from experience. I have an fj with dual exhaust exiting in the rear. Biggest mistake I've made on my build. Wound up cutting them back after they got squished. I also would have gotten an actual bumper made for a winch. I don't like how it petrudes out so far. Also, if it's not made for it I'd always be worried that it wouldn't take the extreme forces a winch puts on the bumper when in use. He's probably gonna wind up wanting a second battery if he eventually puts a fridge in the back. I wouldn't trust the one battery with the solar panel in the middle of no where. The colors definitely not my taste but thats just me. Screams mall crawler to me. I don't mean to sound like I am criticizing every decision made on this build but if this guy is serious about offroading this truck than these are things that need to be considered. If he's sticking to dirt roads not far off the beaten path and not using the winch to much than he'll probably be fine.
There is plenty of room inside in the rear cargo bay behind the plastic panels where they could have mounted it too, but being honest one of my fjs hasnt got the extra petrol tank under there and nothing ever gets under there ie water or dirt as its in a good spot.
Honestly, I don’t watch full videos but I end up watching this one. Quite impressive. I’m an FJ owner as well and this is anyone’s dream. You guys did a great and fantastic job.
35:16 love how even though throtl is a auto shop it still feels like a bunch of buddy’s working in a garage with how they mess with each other during builds
This video was super entertaining and throughout the whole hour I just kept saying "wow, that's frickin' sick!" Makes me miss my 2012 Cavalry Blue FJC. Awesome work guys! Peter is super blessed.
They make custom winch mounts for the FJ cruiser. They bolt directly to the chassis. That welded metal bracket will tear right off the car in a serious recovery.
What a transformation! But I personally wouldve gone with a Matt gunmetal grey, but that's the great thing about wrap, its personal preference n so many colours to choose from. I would be more than happy with this though, nice job guys
Congrats overall and respect to the team for what seams like solid work an craftsmanship. I have to say though sliders instead of steps would be much more useful. I have a feeling he'll constantly be getting hung up on those steps
I agree not underrated very unique vehicles. I own a 07 yota fj 6 speed manual. I installed a Magnuson supercharger 6-inch pro comp lift kit arb front bull bar rear expedition one dual swing out tire carrier & dual Jerry cans , orange boxx rear fold down table & dash kit , red & black seat cover by clazzio the list gose on 35x12.50x18 on Mickey Thompson mtz and black mtc rims it's too bad toyota didn't installed a sun roof if I sold mine I probably get 45k or more
The only thing is the windshield it's only 9" vertically and the white roof you can't See but I'd rather have one than a Jeep they are awesome on the trail! Nice work guys well done!
Great build!! I do think though that having the ARB dual compressor exposed underneath the car is probably not a good idea...air compressors aren't a sealed system and are only really water and dust resistant...not proof. This will limit the FJ's abilities to do water crossings or be in very dusty tracks. Also, rock sliders would have probably been better than the steps since they can get hung up and stuck on rocks when you're doing technical rock crawling! Anyways, still a very fun vid, and great work 👍
Throtl vip squad good morning Evan Mickey Rickie Quinn Rick victor Shawn Will Nate Tim Big Jeff and the rest of the team awesome building a subscribers Dream build congratulations to the winner 😊👍🏽🤙🏽❤️
Spicy build. I’m confused about the rear part of the lift kit. If there are no new rear springs or spacers, where does the lift come from? Also, how does the undercarriage look so perfect? No rust at all… looks freshly painted?
Like that, you guys are running legit suspension on these trucks. I have 2nd gen tacoma with kings 2.5 RR. Haven't been following throtl long. Great work gents.
Very nice job! Great video! That winch mount tho... that will not last... first off line pull will bend that mount and bumper. The mount should have been linked to upper and lower tubes and been a lot wider (tied into the frame mount).
I’ve watched every dream build video and I know nobody will probably read this but It’s awesome how they bless people like that I’d love to be a part of it
@@harleynomanara2827 simple build which is a Nissan 300 sx the car that Lamborghini stole headlight design from its jdm it’s fast it sounds amazing it’s just perfection
the oil filter on top is one of thebest only benifits of the older 1grfe engine. Im glad mine has the newer 1grfe as its honestly a weapon with part time 4wd its suprisingly quick off the lights and fuel efficent. Good too see you guys replaced the clips for the surrounds on the screen.
Awesome build! I loved my FJ and you did everything I ever wanted to minus a secondary fuel tank. Besides space for my heathen offspring, the only short comming was the short legs on the FJ for up here in AK. Well done guys!
Hey Guys, If you are looking for something to do... My 2017 Tundra could totally use a Face lift! I was in a wreck the second week after I got it! Found out the Dealership sold it to me with a CLEAN Car Fax just to find out that it had been in 2 wrecks previously! I got it fixed and still Daily it! It only has some Minor issues.. Being Breaks and suspension! My biggest complaint is that the Drivers seat sits way to high. Even at the lowest setting it is still 2-3 inches to high! Im 6'5".. Thanks, for the great Vids.. Keep them coming!
Maybe it'd be redundant for some reason I'm not aware of, but would there be any point putting a slight hook on the end of those brackets for the reservoirs? Seems like it'd be a minor thing that would reduce the possibility of clamps managing to work their way loose.
I love your content and my dad and I have been working on a prelude I think that’s the name for about 2 years and he has diabetes so we don’t really get to work on it a lot and I’ve been watching you all day and I’ve learned a lot about cars
Only things I would change is hooking the solar to a secondary house battery instead of the starter one and I would have painted the screws on the front bumper black. Wonder how long that solar panel is going to last from getting saturated with heat from the engine.
I could not recommend highly enough, Voltage sensitive relays. They originated from the marine industry, and are the most superior way for dual Battery systems. They are brilliant for both alternator charging as well as solar and 3 stage chargers and will prioritise charge to the primary battery/start battery, if you need a jump start you can just jump the positive side. Ctek make great 3 stage chargers for deep cycle batteries. Also cabling has to be large enough to prevent voltage drop, it's better to bring the negative cables back to the battery or a dedicated terminal post to help prevent voltage loss. The automotive world kinda got it wrong with low voltage cabling, as energy flows from negative to positive and cabling is far more efficient to carry energy then the cars body. I installed my dual Battery system and it ran perfectly for over 10 years in my Prado, sold the vehicle and it's still going, 6 years later. AGM batteries with 3 stage chargers all day!
oh man such a good job throtl fam!!! that was hilarious with Quinn and Rickie with the wheels Quinn made light work of that haha! Again Congrats to Peter for #throtldreambuild03 he looked super stoked I'm sure he's going to enjoy the crud out of it!!! who's ready for #throtldreambuild4?
excellent transformation, they really have great style and talent... the only detail that I didn't think or I didn't like was the placement of the winch. The rest is too good .. greetings
So glad to see the technique I use for wheel and tire assemblies is used by Quinn. Saves your back so much. Keep up the great content guys. Love the channel. What about a Mazda 5 build? Yes it’s a minivan that I own and currently throwing odds and ends in on it hahaha
I love tuners, but damn I love a good truck build. Wish you guys could do more of these. Awesome! I do want to say that it would probably have been a better idea to run the air chuck *Through* the rear bumper to minimize risk of being taken off by departure angle. That's all though.
@fhhsvnggbh to answer your question, no the us versions don't get the extra fuel tank. Its silly that it doesn't. Of course a company sells one, meaning more money. Also yeah the arb compressor should've been mounted in the engine bay.
As much as I love the build.. its still painful to watch such a rare version of an FJ get pulled apart and some of its cool factory options replaced... NOT complaining at all, I just always loved this white Trail Teams Edition, my favorite version of all time!
This might be the coolest build I’ve seen on this channel. All function and yet it still made the thing look rugged and clean at the same time. Now I’m over here looking for onboard air on my truck lol.
Australians do off roading a little different. Have a look at the Toyota Land Cruiser 70 series. Our off road is a mix of mudding and mountain climbing. That being said. I absolutely love this build 9/10
Throtl should come to Europe, would welcome a part dealer and also such car loving comunity here. Also, would love to see what you'd do to my 2010 Skoda Octavia. Keep up the great mindset and good work!
Color and lights are nice, but alot of questions in that build. 1 why would you put aircompressors under the truck not in the engine bay? 2 with the 3inch lift kit you need a diff drop 3 with added weight you did the brakes but kept the stock calipers, you probably could get some off the gx or 4runner, they work much better. 4 no skid plates 5 when you offroad and hit some trees and dirt you hit it with the winch first, why not to mount it inside/ get the different bumper to mount it properly 6 get a real rock sliders and not just steps that you called sliders. 7 you got the arb compressor would be smart to do the front airlocker too
Why didn’t you fit the hose spring clips? They are much more reliable and keep a constant tension on the hose with no gaps and cannot damage the hose? Also they don’t loose tension when going from hot to cold. It’s why automotive manufacturers use them.
I just found your channel and I been binge watching all your videos. I wish you guys were closer so I could learn me somethings. You guys do great work. I would submit my truck, but, I wouldn't be able to make it out there.
WHERE DO YOU GUYS GET YOUR MUSIC??! I've been watching for so long now and I can't ever figure it out. The FJ is an absolute banger! Can't wait to see the next one fellas!
Congratulations on the build. As in America the products are more accessible, you can assemble these incredible projects! Here in South America we need to work 15 years to assemble one of these.

Completely agree with this statement. Their entire staff are great people
So Peter drove this up to Los Angeles and I got to see it in person. It looks great!! He also towed some people off the beach later. 🤩😄
I love this dream car builds :D It feels like a modern, professional, non-fake version of old pimp my ride, just love it. :)
Absolutely. The right way to pimp someone's ride
Congrats Peter!! Was looking forward to seeing this build and I wasn't disappointed. Kudos for riding the Grom from Texas to pick up the FJ too, that's awesome.

A lot of great upgrades! Only things i would have changed from an off road prospective are proper frame mounted rock sliders, and an integrated winch bumper. The later could just be personal taste though.
for sure on the frame mounted rock sliders.. also add some rock lights on all 4 wheels too for night trails!
As I was watching this I was wondering why it didn't have proper rocksliders rather than the rock catchers. And why they added a winch to that bumper.
Cool that he got a free winch. But that is definitely not a proper way to mount a winch and it isn't going to hold up to being used.
Tip. The external air fitting need to be mounted to the top of the bumper. If he catches a ledge that fitting is going bye bye.
Also, I would have mounted that air compressor inside the engine bay. Dust, water and damage is a real possibility in that location.
My initial thoughts exactly. Nothing should hang below the rear bumper. Including the rear exiting exhaust. I know from experience. I have an fj with dual exhaust exiting in the rear. Biggest mistake I've made on my build. Wound up cutting them back after they got squished. I also would have gotten an actual bumper made for a winch. I don't like how it petrudes out so far.

This build was sick and could not have happened to a better guy! 💖 Congrats, Peter, and awesome work, Team Throtl!!
This build was totally Bonkers Dudes
I bought an 07 FJ since this video dropped and I friggin love this Truck!
Honestly, I don’t watch full videos but I end up watching this one. Quite impressive.
I’m an FJ owner as well and this is anyone’s dream.
You guys did a great and fantastic job.
Simply not just restoring but beauty and stronger excellent TRANSFORMATION,from Philippines your doing a great job!!!
I don't think ppl know how much money it cost to do a build like this. Yet the quality and the crew A plus. You guys did an awesome job
The only thing I don’t like is where the wench is at but everything else is supper dope
Exactly, its good to show off you have a nice whinch. But one crash or someone back into you and bam instantly ruined whinch.
@@Steve211Ucdhihifvshi it just seemed kinda lazy to me, I would just change the bumper to a new one to protect it
Turned out awesome. Grom the planet! I drove halfway across the country on my grom, had a blast.
Hell yeah brotha!
The FJ is amazing vehicle. You guys did this one justice for sure. Awesome build.
I live in Sri Lanka 🇱🇰. Never seen such car upgrades. Thank you to Throtl team for making it possible. Love you guys😘
So happy for this dude!
Thank you to all responsible 🙏🏻
More power!
35:16 love how even though throtl is a auto shop it still feels like a bunch of buddy’s working in a garage with how they mess with each other during builds
Sick as hell. That wrap is incredible. This is your best build video yet IMO.
This video was super entertaining and throughout the whole hour I just kept saying "wow, that's frickin' sick!"
Makes me miss my 2012 Cavalry Blue FJC.
Awesome work guys! Peter is super blessed.
I'm watching from jamaica and I love watching you guys, continue doing what you doing.
Throtl team killed it once again, the FJ is one of my favorite rides and its great to see what you guys were able to do to this bad boy.
Much love and respect for Mickey wearing his mask and being responsible before his trip. I did the same before my Cancun trip earlier in the year.
Son Listen!
I'm not a truck dude I don't do the whole off-roading thing but what these cats did with this truck this is DOPE 🔥🔥
don't you revalving the suspension to adapting the additional load before ?
They make custom winch mounts for the FJ cruiser. They bolt directly to the chassis. That welded metal bracket will tear right off the car in a serious recovery.
This is exactly what Pimp My Ride should have been and im glad you guys are the one doing it properly!! Love the work Entering in for #4 right now!
What a transformation! But I personally wouldve gone with a Matt gunmetal grey, but that's the great thing about wrap, its personal preference n so many colours to choose from. I would be more than happy with this though, nice job guys
Congrats overall and respect to the team for what seams like solid work an craftsmanship. I have to say though sliders instead of steps would be much more useful. I have a feeling he'll constantly be getting hung up on those steps
Also maybe add that the compressor line out maybe the first thing to snag if not the hitch
it KILLLLLS me when people call these tacky steps "rock sliders". These steps are the only thing I dislike about the build
FJ cruisers are quite underrated
I don’t think so, they are appreciating like crazy. ;)
I agree not underrated very unique vehicles. I own a 07 yota fj 6 speed manual. I installed a Magnuson supercharger 6-inch pro comp lift kit arb front bull bar rear expedition one dual swing out tire carrier & dual Jerry cans , orange boxx rear fold down table & dash kit , red & black seat cover by clazzio the list gose on 35x12.50x18 on Mickey Thompson mtz and black mtc rims it's too bad toyota didn't installed a sun roof if I sold mine I probably get 45k or more
The only thing is the windshield it's only 9" vertically and the white roof you can't See but I'd rather have one than a Jeep they are awesome on the trail! Nice work guys well done!
Yeah my FJ is jelly. Fantastic build
I love how Rickie struggled to put the tire on then Quinn comes and puts the tire on so fast and easy with no struggle.
Great build!! I do think though that having the ARB dual compressor exposed underneath the car is probably not a good idea...air compressors aren't a sealed system and are only really water and dust resistant...not proof. This will limit the FJ's abilities to do water crossings or be in very dusty tracks. Also, rock sliders would have probably been better than the steps since they can get hung up and stuck on rocks when you're doing technical rock crawling! Anyways, still a very fun vid, and great work 👍

Sweet!!! I've got a whole list of upgrades for MY FJ!!! Thanks for walking through the build.
The fact that you didn't have to cut the control arms out is a miracle.
Like that, you guys are running legit suspension on these trucks. I have 2nd gen tacoma with kings 2.5 RR. Haven't been following throtl long. Great work gents.
Very nice job! Great video!
That winch mount tho... that will not last... first off line pull will bend that mount and bumper. The mount should have been linked to upper and lower tubes and been a lot wider (tied into the frame mount).
Love how the end result came out and I also like the solar panel on the hood that’s gonna be a lifesaver for the owner
That truck was pristine though, good to see owners who take care of their vehicles.
One of my favorite series on TH-cam. Loving these dream builds!

SICK!! What an awesome build! Congrats my dude!
Love the video and everything you did. Is it possible to do a side video on how you installed the air compressor or suspension?
That’s a nice FJ, I like it a lot. FJ’s are underrated!
This was hands down the best build Ive seen on this channel!!! Great work ✌️👍👌
what an amazing FJ Cruiser!!
Classy, cool and functional!!
I love tuners, but damn I love a good truck build. Wish you guys could do more of these. Awesome!
I do want to say that it would probably have been a better idea to run the air chuck *Through* the rear bumper to minimize risk of being taken off by departure angle. That's all though.
Same with the bumper, running the whinch out front means any accident the most expensive part is instantly smashed first.
as in you can reverse mount it inside the bumper.
Do you guys not get the long range gas tanks on your fjs over there? The spot where that compressor goes is where a long range tank fits.
@fhhsvnggbh to answer your question, no the us versions don't get the extra fuel tank. Its silly that it doesn't. Of course a company sells one, meaning more money. Also yeah the arb compressor should've been mounted in the engine bay.

*That front Bumper is a FJuckin Mess!*
Color and lights are nice, but alot of questions in that build.
1 why would you put aircompressors under the truck not in the engine bay?
2 with the 3inch lift kit you need a diff drop
3 with added weight you did the brakes but kept the stock calipers, you probably could get some off the gx or 4runner, they work much better.
4 no skid plates
5 when you offroad and hit some trees and dirt you hit it with the winch first, why not to mount it inside/ get the different bumper to mount it properly
6 get a real rock sliders and not just steps that you called sliders.
7 you got the arb compressor would be smart to do the front airlocker too
51 minutes. Right where I want it to be 💪
I don’t care for the color of red. But this looks Amazeballs!!!!! I think you guys did an amazing job !!! That’s one Perty FJ
Great built. Hoping someday I could start a project for our 1992 Toyota Corolla XE. More power to your channel!
Why didn’t you fit the hose spring clips? They are much more reliable and keep a constant tension on the hose with no gaps and cannot damage the hose? Also they don’t loose tension when going from hot to cold. It’s why automotive manufacturers use them.
I just bought a Toyota FJ- this rebuild was amazing !
I just found your channel and I been binge watching all your videos. I wish you guys were closer so I could learn me somethings. You guys do great work. I would submit my truck, but, I wouldn't be able to make it out there.
WHERE DO YOU GUYS GET YOUR MUSIC??! I've been watching for so long now and I can't ever figure it out. The FJ is an absolute banger! Can't wait to see the next one fellas!
What a transformation!! Damnn you guys killed it! 🔥🔥🔥🤘
You guys don't fail. Even with things people might not love at first. This FJ is sick.

This was sick! Love this series, and I love that you guys do it in one episode!
So cool! Love that red wrap, super clean, but stunning 🔥
FJ All Rocked up I Love the Wrap Job Dude,and then wounder if you could hook A air generator motor to the Air compressor?
Hope they used thick enough tubing on that non winch bumper. Usually none winch bumpers are thinner steel. Looks good
Definitely my Favorite Dream Car Build!!
An amazing transformation, but I would stick with oem radiator hoses.
Congratulations on the build. As in America the products are more accessible, you can assemble these incredible projects! Here in South America we need to work 15 years to assemble one of these.
