Are you asking so that you can lift your gx? I was unable to force the truck to stay in low or hi so I just moved the ride height sensor brackets to create a new and 2" higher baseline as far as where L/N/H is.

This is my new "normal" position:

That...would be a -fantastic- writeup for this site...

That is exactly the height I would like my GX to have (when I get one)

That is the first GX I've seen without the running boards. Nice!

I was under the impression the AHC just lifted or lowered the rear--at least thats all I can tell it's doing on my wife's ride (2006). How did you lift the front of your GX? New Coils or Spacers? If so, did you use a kit designed for the Runner or the Prado? The picture above of your truck is giving me dirty ideas of what I'm going to do her ride once it becomes my DD and retire the 80 to full-time hunting and trail .

Thanks,
Justin

Wow! Awesome job. Did you de-wing it too?
Now, just to square off that 3rd side window by shooting some flat black paint( or better yet removable decal) to make a nice smooth visual from the side.
