You have to have doubled the initial purchase price of your FJ by now. I like you axe mount too. Super simple, very nice! On the picture where your dashboard dimmer switch is, what is the button that I think was bluish that is a rocker style switch that says "up and down" on it?
My primary radio is a ham radio. I use it daily. I got tired of getting in and out of my truck to unscrew an antenna each night when I got home and then put it on again when I left. So I bought a Diamond K9000 motorized mount to raise and lower the antenna with. It also makes it convenient for going through drive throughs and low hanging limbs. no more broken antennas. I'll post some pics of it for you.

A friend of mine "funjunkie" gave me a complex with his comment below and I had to make a change.

without hearing the difference I gotta say I am not a fan. I admire the lengths you went to to make it ok, but man, kinda feel its on the far side of good. Just constructive criticism bro. not tryin to get down on ya. Kinda like the friend who has the balls to tell ya your breath stinks or ya got spinich on your tooth.
So I went out today and moved my ScanGauge into the blank spot to improve the appearance. I actually like the location of the ScanGauge better now and does fill the void.

Ollie's FJ is the only one I've seen that rivals Shadow Warrior's(RIP) build.

Although I am flattered, there is at least one FJ out there that makes mine look minor in comparison where accessories are concerned. He goes by Cruiserlarry on all the forums. He is my go-to man when it comes to accessories. He owns Dirty Parts in Los Angeles and his personalized plates say "1CRZYFJ" for a reason. I am proud to call him a good friend and the BugEater trembles in his FJ's presence. I'll find some pics if I can. His FJ changes so frequently that he doesn't even bother attempting to put a build thread together.

I will work on a write up of the various hacks for the FJ.

Starting Friday the BugEater is getting a fairly major mod. The picture below is a hint...:bigthumb:
