Description
This mod will add a brand new Armor for Strong the Supermutant companion. This one is based on X01 Powerarmor but reshaped and remodelled by me. It will also change appearence of Strong, giving him a unique underarmor/outfit.
This mod is compatible with any X01 paintjob you can get from nexus.
Moreover you can apply any existing vanilla X01 paintjob to this armor on workbench.
Installation
Make sure you have made all the necessary configurations to enable mods in Fallout 4.

MAKE SURE YOU'VE ADDED EVERYTHING NECESSARY TO YOUR TO YOUR FALLOUT. INI FIRST!
See ArchiveInvalidation for more information.
I really recommend installing through the Nexus Mod Manager. The
installation wizard guides you through the steps, and it minimizes the
potential for future errors. Other mod managers, such as the Fallout 4
Mod Manager, are not recommended and will probably give you a
"wrong structure"-error.
With Nexus ModManager (NMM):
1. Download the mod by clicking "Download with manager".
2. Activate the mod in Nexus Mod Manager and follow the installation guide.
While not (completely) necessary, I highly recommend the use of Armor & Weapons Keywords Community Resource.
If you do not use it, you have to choose the "New Workbench" option during install.
Manual Installation (not recommended):
1. Download the mod.
2. Extract the .zip file into a new folder.
3. Copy everything but the "Options" and "fomod" folders into your "Fallout4\data" folder.
4. This step depends on how you want to craft the item in game and whether or not you have AWKCR and VIS installed:
[]If you want the new crafting workbench and do not have AWKCR installed, copy both "tumbajamba Advanced Engineering.esp"
and "Stron_PA - tAE.esp" from the "Options" folder to your "Fallout4\data" folder.[]If you want the new crafting workbench and do have AWKCR installed, copy both "tumbajamba Advanced Engineering.esp"

This mod adds a custom X-01-based Power Armor for Strong, the super mutant companion in Fallout 4, along with a unique underarmor/outfit that changes his appearance. With over 4,500 endorsements and 177k downloads, it's a popular cosmetic overhaul for Strong fans.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 4,521 endorsements—clearly a hit among Strong fans.
- Gives Strong a unique look that stands out from the default super mutant gear.
- Based on the iconic X-01 armor, so it fits the Fallout 4 aesthetic perfectly.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2016—might have compatibility issues with newer game patches or DLC.
- Only affects Strong, so if you don't use him as a companion, this mod is useless.
- No mention of compatibility with other mods that alter Strong or power armor—potential conflicts.
For Fallout 4 players who love Strong and want him to look like a proper tank in custom power armor. If you're a completionist or roleplayer who wants each companion to have a distinct visual identity, this is a must-have. Skip if you rarely use Strong or prefer gameplay-changing mods over cosmetic ones.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to install the mod before recruiting Strong, or use console commands to reset his outfit if he's already in your party.
- If you're using a mod manager like Nexus Mod Manager or Vortex, just download with the manager and activate—no manual file placement needed.
- Check your load order to ensure this mod doesn't conflict with other Strong appearance mods; place it after any that alter his base model.
