i have the extreme 4x4 tivoed if anyone needs a copy of it , let me know , ill make a copy and send it out , if you want it and the 2 roads to baja show i can fit them both on a dvd. or if you wantto wait till the 2nd show of the fjc build up comes on i tivo them all.

$5 shipped to usa

im not impressed with the fjc build , they keep saying they want to keep it all toyota , but in the 2nd show they are going to add arb lockers , nice build but if your gonna keep it all toyota , why not try and use what it came with.
for those of you who havent watched it , they install a pro comp 6 inch lift and 35 inch tires on it.

That exo skel they put on is fugly to say the least.
I also saw they mentioned you must cut the back FJ side plastic when installing the Warn rear bumper.

I spoke with Warn today, and he did confirm that.
Take a sawsall to it he said.

I need to enquire with All Pro if that must be done with theirs as well.
Not really keen on hacking up the rear.

Also not sure if the All Pro lets you keep the factory hitch and backup sensors.
Will contact the AP vendor here later to find out.

the only rear bumper ive seen so far that you dont have to trim the rear plastic pieace is the fab fours one. with out trimming it , and having metal cover the area removed youd have a really really heavy bumper.

How did you get to see it before me?
You are in the same timezone as me

It comes on at noon here, PVR is set to record it too, but I will watch it live.

I read somewhere yesternight that Jessi hurt her back, and will be off a few shows.

im not sure how i saw it sooner , it was on earlier , the tivo caught it.
they didnt mention anything about her being hurt , but i can see why if she is , she was working on the transfer case and tranny of the old fj , shes always dinging herself up on the show or having an appendix removed LOL.

Are you on Satellite? or Cable?
If you are on Sat doesnt your shows run the eastern schedule for networks like spike and what not. Locals run normal.

Just finished the show, pretty cool.
I like how he took on the water/mud hole with the FJ.

Did you notice the Magnaflow catback sound too?
My new muffler sounds similar.

I also heard it has an Airaid intake on it, and also a chip replacement for the computer.

I was always told the chip replacements are useless on Toyotas.
I wonder if it really made a difference or not.

You could see though how the exo cage Ian put on protected the rear lights when he came close to the tree.

Did anyone else catch that Ian said he had seen "several" FJC's on the trail with D60 SAS's?

Isn't the UA FJC still the only one with a SFA?

I think so.
Him and Jessi make quite a few mistakes on the show.

Should have searched Ebay for a Tivo.

I got the DVR and its going back this week. Its like 12 bucks for their service i think and it is not as smart as Tivo.

I have an 80hr and a 40 hr. got the 40hr new off of Ebay for like $40.
Both networked together so i can watch shows off of each of them.
