Styles of FJ Cruiser Builds - Classifying Your FJ's Build - Everything You Need to Know!

- Hey everyone! This time on Let's FJ! I present to you an episode I've been wanting to release for quite some time! In this video I cover the most common types of FJ Cruiser builds oriented towards different types of off-roading or other FJ-related activities! I hope this video is helpful to those who want to learn more about FJs and off-roading, especially if you are looking at upgrading your own FJ Cruiser to meet your off-roading or on-roading needs! The names for the classifications are just ones I came up with, and you very well may have different names or alternative names for the same things. For example, I think the Baja Build could also be the Baja/Rally build since they are pretty similar, and the Weekend Warrior could just be the Classic Off-road build. So it doesn't matter too much, but you get the idea.
Here are some time-stamps for navigating the video:
0:00 - Intro
1:16 - Video Preface
1:51 - Stock Build
3:11 - Weekend Warrior Build
4:19 - Overland Build
5:29 - Crawler Build
6:59 - Hybrid Builds
7:55 - Baja Build
9:19 - Solid Axle Swap Build
10:44 - Mall Crawler Build
11:24 - Lowered/Stanced Build
12:27 - Conclusion

Check out the group Pilipinas Offroaders, this group has a huge number of INSANELY MODED FJ's but not too extreme beyond recognition. I like this video.
Really enjoyed
I’m buying my first FJ tomorrow morning
Welcome to the brotherhood!
Remember rule number 3 and you will be together forever!.
Nice plug for Ken at offroad Hub. His SAS is awesome
Yep I shot him a message and asked if I could and he said sure! I like his build a lot so figured I would shout him out!
Excellent, informative, concise...subbed
They are so different but still so beautiful and with combination of cuteness and rudeness 😍 design for centuries
ohh, some of those builds....
good show!!!
Kicking butt with all the videos right before the end of 2021.
Thanks! Gotta finish as many as I can before going back to school!
Love the vids👍
Yeah! Only in the Philippines!
Great video
I just bought my 2008 Fj Cruiser TRD pro and I am going to be using almost all of these as inspiration for my build! You're the reason I found my Fj! Love from colorado!
Glad to hear it! Question though, since there never was a TRD Pro FJ Cruiser, do you mean a 2008 Trail Teams Special Edition? If so, that's what I have!
@@FJX2000_Productions Its the exact same one you have! Hence why i went with it! 64k miles! Lots of underbody components need to be replaced, which is why i watch your videos so often, to find the ideal way to solve the problems i have found.
@@ethanroy1466 Glad to hear I can be helpful! Be sure to check out the Special Editions video I did this year to learn everything there is to know about your 08 TTSE if you haven't already, and let me know if you have any more questions 👍
2008 might be the best one you can buy
Love my 2008
3” Lift w/ 33’s, front bumper and winch on the works… guess im the weekend warrior lol.
awesome video
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Stock with off road teardrop trailer, 2014 fj.No complaints.
Glad to hear it!
Cool vid !!!!
Thanks! I think so too!
Mine has a 3” lift and a winch that fits into the original bumper since I want to keep it looking fairly stock. I want 33” inch tires and the 16” inch wheels that came in the trail teams edition but economical situations have not allowed me to get them unfortunately..
Sounds like a sweet build! My uncle has one of those winches in his FJ that goes with the stock bumper
I loved your video. Super informative & incredible FJ pictures. I have an '07 in Cement color. She is an Overlander. Equipt with aftermarket bumpers w/winch, Fox suspension And lift, ViAir compressor set up, Shovel & ax rack mount, fuel & water Jerry cans, a Sparrow Roofnest & lots of LED lights so far. My next goal is to install fender flares & snorkel. Future upgrades I have been researching solar panels/batteries. Thank you for all you do man, I appreciate yah!
Glad to hear it!! Thanks for sharing your build!
+1 for stock, just like my 13TT. for how i use it, it's more than capable. great video and thanks for your hard work!
Really? +1, WTF this is not your forum.
Stock, bless your little heart. Its because of you real FJ owners can build something meaningful.
Let's goooooo!
I'm pretty excited about this video!
@@FJX2000_Productions you did a great job!

Ay bro dope video.
Can you make a video with the coolest modded FJ in each color you can find?!
That would be hard to pick! There are too many awesome FJs out there!
Sorry to double comment, But as I was watching this i thought i should ask. I would like to keep modifications down to a minimum, but i want that "pillow" tire look. Is it wise to run 15" wheels with 33-35" tires? Will i need a lift for that? Have you any experience with doing something similar?
No worries, so the minimum wheel size you can fit on the FJ is actually a 16" wheel, so unfortunately a 15" wheel wont work. But a 33" tire on a 16" wheel is very very common. A 35" tire is also possible but you will want to read and study on what types of modifications are necessary to get them to fit. An invaluable resource is going to be on the FJCruiserForums.com in the wheels and tires section. At the top of that section are some pinned threads that go into all the details about fitting certain sized wheels and tires on the FJ, so check those out 👌
I just got a 2007 FJ It's basically stock but it does have the 3" lift with 32" tires.
It's definitely gonna be a cross between a weekend worrior and mall crawler
I've already started 3-D printing custom emblems for it 😁
Poor fj
@@notsure8900 🤣 Trust me you're not the 1st one to give me shit for that .. Honestly the only thing I've done so far is add a few light bars
No shame in keeping it stock. I've taken my 100% stock fj through worse stuff than 90% of these fully built out rigs.
Will 255/85 tires fit on factory rims with lift kit and BMC?
Probably, check out one of my other videos about that size, you can see that’s the size I run
Hi, which of those builds do u think is the best build for daily and offroad? Should I get a axle swap? How much do u think will I spent more if I go for the solid axle? Sorry for the bunch of questions 🥺🥺🥺🥺 // Nice video bro really well explained 🔥🔥🔥🔥
It depends on what type of off-roading you want to do, your budget, skill level, and lots of things. For someone who goes to the sand dunes, their build will look very different than someone who wants to go one cross-country expeditions and camp in their FJ. So it all depends on what is best for you. If you want the most extreme off-roader possible, then a solid axle swap may be great. But if you’re not going to be doing that extreme of off-roading then a much more modest build will be fine.
@@FJX2000_Productions I'll prolly spent 50k grand ( ALL in ALL ) on the Solid-Axle build since here in my country the price is just 💀. Here in my country we dont have sand dunes, mostly some muddy and rocky trails 😁😁😁
Join your local FJ club, get involved with the members and see firsthand what you like and what you don't. Don't build a mall crawler please for the love of God don't do it.

I live fulltime in my fj cruiser
How is it going?! this is unusual done.=))
I didn’t even know about the slammed FJ.
If I ever make stupid money from crypto, maybe a salvage title build of a 2wd with a Roadster Shop chassis and a 2JZ engine mated to a six speed trans. 🤔
Sounds like a potentially very unique build!
Sounds like a troll, a really good troll.
@@FJX2000_Productions R U Serious? Slam it, dish it and stance an FJ?
🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
1st
Great job!
@@FJX2000_Productions thanks I try my best
Bone stock.
Toyota FJ -E Cruiser EV AWD Definitely electric ⚡️
Just wanted to say it my look good lowered but you got to be smoking Crack to lower an fj
