Landshark II

[landshark99]

I owned a Toyota Landcruiser 100 for 20 years, since new, it was modded as an overlander, at some point. In March of last year I got rid of my fast car, gave the Landcruiser to my youngest daughter and her husband, then bought a Granite Crystal Metallic JLU. My first jeep and my first quasi American Car in 40 years. The Jeep came with
Trailer package, 8.4 Radio/Nav, Cold Weather, leather wrapped seats, Steel Bumpers, LED lighting, Color matched roof and fenders. Started the mods in the first month and kept going, I am very happy with the build at the moment but I am certain there will more changes, additions and substractions in the future. My rear bumper, some of the aux lights, first winch install and tires were done by 4Wheel Parts, the work was fine but the disorganization was disappointing, all of the rest of the work if not done by me was installed by Rebel Offroad, super happy with them
This is how it looked when I brought it home along with the Landcruiser

Great looking vehicles! As an FJ40 owner, I have a special place for land cruisers and yours (daughters) looks great! Post up more pics of your JL build when you get a chance

Decided I did not like the Pro Comp wheels and changed them for some Method Black 701s 17/8.5wheels and added accessory mounts to the rack for my new Krazy Beaver shovel, roto pax mounts, high lift mount, maxtrax mounting and cargo box mounts

Mid September after hanging all the extra weight on the jeep and thinking about possibly towing the jeep behind the rv, installed a Rock Hard 4x4™ Aluminum Patriot Series Mid-Width Front Bumper with built in skid for the front [ , weighs only 37lbs and can add brackets for most of the main main towing arms, had to reinstall the winch, harvest the fogs from the stock bumper and reattach the Rigids on the hoop. Saved almost 75lbs off the front
Also installed Dann/Spicer front and rear diff covers
