Box Rocket 1995 FZJ80 Build

[RMP&O]

It is certainly the lowest profile rack I have ever seen.

Any conflicts with the sun roof? Noise at HWY speeds?

I don't do racks but if I was to do one, I would consider this one for sure.

Cheers

Great looking rack!

What are the dimensions?

Dammit Scott. Do a 4th Gen 4runner already.

Looks great!

That's cool. These trucks are really capable even in stock trim. Mine is probably way overbuilt for most overland type needs for most people here on the forum, but it fits the way I am using the truck and I already had all the components from my last 80 so it was an inexpensive build for me. My total investment at this point is >$7000 which is pretty good for a fully built 80 series IMO. I hope your dad doesn't feel a need to do a bunch of mods to the new 80, unless of course they are legitimately needed. A very mild build on these trucks will get you LOTS of places.

Adam, thanks for the input. The suspension and bushings are all stock and in need of a refresh. We'll be going through refreshing everything and upgrading where prudent. It'll be set up overland/camping biased with emphasis on comfort. The biggest hurdle will be weight management. My dad wants to set it up with storage drawers in the rear that doubles as a sleeping platform when the middle seats are folded down (Basically a copy of a friends setup that works well). It helps having examples to go off of.

yeah I'm not a roofrack guy either, but I needed one on this truck for the tent. No conflicts with the sunroof if you don't want them. It's all bolt together so the crossbars can be moved to wherever you want them. It came with one over the sunroof but it could easily either be moved or completely removed. I have had it on the freeway for 60+ miles so far and I didn't notice any noise at all.

What? like a tent and some maxtrax?

Nicely done. I'm keeping an eye out for the next prinsu design... Hoping it will be a good fit for my taco. I need to come here more to see what you are up to...

sorry to side track your tread but you mentioned your brother in law and the LX; can you find out what rear bumper is on the vehicle? thanks

It's a 4x4 Labs bumper.

wish I saw that rack two months ago.

Prinsu Designs makes some awesome looking roof racks.

I'm stoked beyond words at how well my new PrInSu Designs roofrack turned out for the Land Cruiser. Mine was the first one Zach Scott has built for an 80 series so there was a bit of iteration along the way but man it is exactly like I had hoped. Love it. Now it's time to throw the Tepui Tent up there. This is a major photo dump since this is a rack for Cruisers that hasn't been on the market 'til now, and I'm sure there will be questions. So I'll post as many photos as possible to show details that will hopefully address most of the questions.

wow that is so nice; I wish my 100 series had that type of rain/gutter rail thing for mounting, beautiful work.
