Toyota FJ Cruiser with Racing Coil-Over System


After market parts for the FJ Cruiser are hitting the market and I can not wait to get my hands on some.

- Owning a new off road vehicle usually means having to wait around for the aftermarket products to finally hit the scene. Donahoe Racing’s new FJ Cruiser front coil-over system proves this always isnt so. The FJ Cruisers design creates a great base product for adding on to. Donahoe Racing Enterprises picked this fact up immediately and went to work on the 2007 FJ Cruisers suspension during the pre-production phase. By having access to test their expertise on the early production models, Donahoe Racing was able to develop the first aftermarket suspension package.

That means Donahoe Racing engineers developed a coil-over product with the needs of the brand new FJ Cruiser owner in mind. The design perfects on and off road suspension performance by increasing wheel travel, making it ride height adjustable from 0-3 inches.

And yes, that means if you own a FJ Cruiser, or will soon own a FJ Cruiser, or are in serious contemplation about owning Toyota’s tribute to the Land Cruiser legend, you’re able to experience what trail and highway life is like on higher ground with all its performance peeks, pluses and perks – right now.

Racing Name Becomes an FJ Cruiser Racing Necessity

Kreg Donahoe, son of desert racing legend Bill Donahoe, is the president and CEO of Donahoe Racing Enterprises. The company focuses its efforts and talents into producing off-road suspension systems for trucks and SUVs like the Toyota FJ Cruiser.

Kreg may have started out with a big name, but he started his organization with as little as three employees. Now with over 25 staff members and growing, the company occupies a 10,000-square-foot building in Anaheim, California.

Kreg has worked, crewed or raced with off road legends from Walker Evans to Robby Gordon. He worked at Fabtech while finishing up college, and he put in three years of employment with Walker Evans Racing as a race truck fabricator. He has won 18 off road racing championships as a car builder, prep mechanic, driver and crew chief. His racing resume also includes the 2004 SCORE Stock Mini Championship, a victory at the Las Vegas Primm 300, and a win at the grueling Baja 1000 in his Toyota Tacoma.
