I have all that setup in my FJC and tomorrow I will snap some pics and add them to this thread...
Mount....www.jeniko.com I have run this drill in the floor mount for over a year and beat the crap out of it...great piece of gear at a silly low price.
Puck..

this one works very very well outside the rig or inside and is dirt cheap
Software....
If you are staying in the USA then I really like the Delorme laptop program and if you hike then get the handheld instead of the puck as it comes with the laptop program and they will work together.
I also run Oziexplorer which is great if you are going outside the USA or like to be more of a tech head.
Camera system...
Rod at Total Vision in Tucson really setup my FJC with camera in the front & rear bumpers and looking at the front & rear axle...I can switch between them and it all shows up on the laptop screen. Not to mention I can record it all on the laptop harddrive.


I can't take credit for any of this knowledge as it was guys like Whitethiager and others who schooled me.
