Zack Roy's FJ Inspired Revolution 2.0 Turnkey Build Preview

We love taking on a challenge of new ideas and throwing in our custom touches on a build. This new build is for Zack Roy of Lexington, KY. It's a fine example of a custom build that uses one of our tried and true platforms. Zack wanted the room of a four seat buggy and all of the performance that we could give him with it.
We decided on a Revolution 2.0 chassis and then added an FJ-40 hood. We built the front bib from 1/8" 5052 aluminum to fit the narrowed down hood and then shortened an original FJ-40 grille to match. That set the look that we wanted to get started with. Next came the Mast Motorsports 427 cubic inch Gen V LT engine backed up by a turbo 400 and an Atlas transfer case. For axles, we went with Crane 14 bolt front and rear axles. We outfitted those housings with magnum knuckles and unit bearings. 40 Spline axles from RCV fill the insides along with 40 spline spools. Four wheel steering will help the four seat chassis get around great through the trails and the woods. Radflo 2.0 coil overs and 2.5" diameter bypass shocks control the ride. The PRP seats will keep everyone riding comfortable out on the trails. We selected the Garmin Tread Baja Race GPS and it serves as the centerpiece of the dash in the vehicle followed up by a full rugged radio communications set up.
This buggy has a TON of the detailed work that we enjoy putting into all of our builds. Our buggies roll out with a little heart and soul in them, as each one is unique.
Check out all of the pictures of this thing and let us know what you think about it! The next step will be a tear down and full weld out for the chassis, then that will head out to powder coat. The body is getting painted with automotive paint and we can't wait to see everything with a little color splashed on.
