This Moab-proven veteran was built in 2005 by Proffitt's Cruisers to take on the toughest terrain. The frame is a blend of stock FJ40 and custom tubing. The long-traveling 4-link suspension, 8-lug Dana 60 axles and 44-inch tires allow the vehicle to tackle large obstacles that block most vehicles equipped for off-road travel. This is a dedicated off pavement vehicle and is not suitable for highway use.
The vehicle is offered at $25,000.00 and can be inspected in Salt Lake City, UT. Contact Dan Busey at 505-615-5470 or email .
