BA Outfitters specializing in custom Fabrication of off-road accessories

Main Page,

BA Outfitters was founded in 2004 by Bill Atkinson. It just sort of happened, after selling a rack that he had built for his landcruiser on E-bay.

The company is “co”-owned by three mechanical engineers, who came together in the fall of 1994.

We are currently building and selling things to fuel our addiction for more tools.

Their love for all things mechanical led them into their addiction for land-cruisers and off-road rigs.

Currently Bill owns a 1976 Fj-40, Timmer owns a 1971 Fj-40, and Brad owns a 1992 FJ-80. (This list would be a lot longer if our wives didn’t have so much say in it.)

They all dreamed about one day running an off-road company to help satisfy their addictions, and pursue a career combining the things that they love.

This will give them some spare change to build accessories for their own trucks.

Bill Atkinson’s Bio

Bill was born in upstate New York on a small “Gentlemens” farm. He first learned to drive in the family landcruiser at about the age of four. This was the first thing that he loved about landcruisers, There is no need to be able to reach the pedals, you just turn the key on to go, and turn it off to stop. It was also these early beginnings that gave Bill the love of building things. On a farm you need to be good at fixing things and building things tough enough to get the job done. That is what BA Outfitters is about, building things that serve a purpose other than just show. Its one of the reasons you won’t find anything chrome plated here, also one of the reasons that our products will hold up to the test of time.

Brad Juneau’s Bio

Brad is a mechanical engineer who is currently employed full-time as a Sales Engineer in the HVAC industry. Though, he enjoys selling pre-engineered equipment/systems, he has a stronger passion for working with his hands and building it himself. This and a desire for add-on items for his Cruiser have drawn him to the business. Thanks to Bill and Tim and some interesting college-time adventures, Brad was converted to a Cruiser lover several years ago and has never looked back.

Tim (Timmer) Maxson’s Bio

Tim is currently employed full time as a mechanical engineer for Borg Warner Morse Tec in Ithaca NY as a product engineer.

Being a fellow Land Cruiser enthusiast, he shares in the passion for building items for off-road vehicles including his own FJ40 and Toyota pickup.
