Re: FJ Xtreme or TRD
I am driving 2010 FJ all you need is ARB lift kit and wheel spacers and you are good to go no need to pay money on expensive suspensions and useless modification

Re: FJ Xtreme or TRD
I have the FJ Xtreme and I would recommed it. I added a skid plate, but otherwise changed nothing and it has performed very well. Most of the differences between the two are cosmetic. The major benefits are the Fox stage 1 suspension, cat back exhaust and possibly the bonnet scoop. I have been told that the bonnet scoop decreases engine temp by about 5-10 degrees. Not much, but on a 50 degree day, it might make all the difference. Cat back exhaust gives about 5hp more (again, not much, but better than nothing). I have compared TRD suspension to Fox Stage 1 and the Fox looks considerably better build and stronger.
If you are simply comparing the TRD to the Xtreme, the Xtreme better.

Hi,
Go for GXR. It has all the necessary gadgets for off-roading. Then you can buy a much better suspension with the money you saved.
