21.5” Hub to Fender, no need to align right now. Go out and put some miles on it. When I bought mine, the front was at 23” and it rode, and drove like a dump truck.
The front end of your truck is way too high.
You need to start by lowering the front. You can try starting 1/2” and move in 1/2” increments, but my guess is you’ll find 21.5” is the right spot. If you can, jack up the truck at the frame and measure the hub to fender. You want to have 2.25”...
Got around to installing it today after using an extra can of Monstaliner on the interior and exterior. I was hoping it would give it a slightly rubbery feel (it didn't), but I like the way it looks and it should be durable. Install was easy...
Thank you for your business and the kind words! I'm glad you like it!
I used Rustoleum flat black spray paint on mine. Just the regular $5 can, nothing special. It looks exactly the same today as when I painted it a few years ago. IIRC I...
Just received mine. Great construction and lock and I look forward to installing it soon. Question: If I wanted to dress it up with black paint, what did you use in post #1 and how has it held up?
I have these in my front doors. I've been extremely impressed.

I'm doing a two way system up front with a wide band 2" driver from BLAM. JBL GTI mkII 12"...
Hi folks! First time poster, but I've been lurking for the past four months or so as I've been searching for an LX470. This first posts covers a couple weeks (so it might be a little jumbled), but I hope to stay on top of it more going forward...
Yup. I would sell them and get 7075 aluminum links from Wide Open Designs. Then do whatever ends you want. I have hiems on frame end and JJs on axle end. No clunks.
These are the only links I’ve never been able to bend.
I'd start by lowering the front end down to 20.5"-21". I set my '06 to 22.5", and went down to 22" and had some crazy vibrations. I finally set mine at 20.5" and it's smooth as room temp butter :) . Lowering back down to 20.5"-21" is free, easy...
Trying out a little makeshift wireless charger setup.. So far so good for less than $20. I cut down some hard foam packaging I had laying around and just laid it in there and put a bar stop at the bottom with double sided tape to butt the phone...
My (adult) son, and three of his buddies decided that they needed a guy’s ski trip. Apparently everyone booked the trip, and then figured out that most of them drove either unreliable or two seat vehicles. Somehow my old 99 LX with 270+k miles...
Full interior refresh complete. New leather, new carpet, headliner and plaid wagon nets on the rear of the front seats. Two weeks later. Carpet replacement is not a fun task. Glad to be done with this. Waiting on my Weather Tech mats to come in.
