Los Angeles-based four-wheel drive expert Icon has now crafted a special “Old School Edition” of its rugged FJ44.
Using a 1972 Land Cruiser as its basis, the new edition gives the off-roader a massive power upgrade, now carrying a 6.2-liter V8 from GM that can push out a whopping 430 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque via an Alsin Warner AX15 five-speed manual transmission and Atlas II two-speed transfer case. The company also couples Dynatrac Dana 60 rear and front axles with a Fox Racing coil-over suspension, sitting above hydroboost-assisted Brembo Sport brakes, the company’s own forged aluminum wheels, and all-terrain tires from BF Goodrich.

In keeping with the FJ 44 s original time period, transferring the drive to the Dynatrac Dana front and rear axles is an Aisin Warner AX15 five-speed manual transmission. An Atlas II two-speed transfer case is also installed, as well as Fox Racing coilover sport suspension. Completing its newfound modern ability as an off-road beast, the Old School Edition FJ44 is shod with BF Goodrich all-terrain 285/65/18 tires mounted on Icon s forged aluminum vintage-inspired wheels.
Amazingly, these expensive odes to classic cars are being used as intended. With people spending a lot more time close to home, a lot of our owners are taking more time to adventure in our vehicles, which really resonates with us, Ward says. Taking a truck like this 1972 rig, restoring, rebuilding it, and then releasing it back into the wild to be used as it was intended is what Icon 4x4 is all about.
Icon 4x4 Made A New SUV Out Of A Very Old Toyota Land Cruiser ++ V8 power and many off-road upgrades.
Earlier this month, we shared a video with a Toyota Land Cruiser FJ44 that has approximately 780,000 original miles. At the time, we didn’t know much about the build but today we can provide all the little details that matter. And they are good.
Let’s start with the most important thing - this is a project made by Icon 4x4, the off-road specialist “breathing new life into all manners of vintage transportation.” The latest addition to its Old School Edition series is this Eucalyptus Green FJ44, which rides on a body-on-frame construction and features a powder-coated aluminum body.
