Stock FJ Cruiser Trail Teams vs Elbe

Рет қаралды 30,792

In this one I am joined by Austin in his stock 2013 Toyota FJ Cruiser Trail Teams Edition to go exploring Elbe Hills OHV in Elbe Washington! Most of the people that come out to Elbe bring fairly beaten up older rigs on very large tires, because these trails can be pretty punishing! But this video proves that you can come to Elbe in a late model 4 wheel drive and still have a good time!

Wow, the little FJ did pretty good! I’m impressed! Fun to see the contrast between the rigs…

Absolutely! And hopefully people will see that you can go and have fun at Elbe even if you have a stock 4x4!

Great video and comparison, as a FJ owner, always felt that stock size tire with aggressive MT pattern and E rated stronger sidewalls along with better shocks and under body protection is quite a capable vehicle on its own with factory reliability as an added bonus.

That was great! Fun to watch. Is that the same FJ where you trashed mirrors and door. Can't remember where you were but I remember it looked like a deep trench you were in. Awesome stuff. I would be afraid to take my 2013 FJ some of the places you go. But I will watch.

For Austin I definitely recommend doing the bodymount chop and putting some 34ish inch tires. 35's require a lot more finessing. I'm running 285/75/17's. When I put my aftermatket UCA's I needed a negative offset wheel or some 1.25inch wheel spacers.
