GX Overtrail + cargo dimensions (1 Viewer)

[stom]

Just got back from the Longo Lexus GX event. They had 5 GX’s. Here are some dimensions for the cargo area.


Cargo opening height


Width between wheel wells


Height from center of load floor


From back of second row seats


From the back of the second row seats tumbled


From the back of the front seats with the second row folded flat (vs tumbled)


Height of the second row folded flat. Also remember that the second row floor is 2" lower than the cargo floor. So drawers would need to be ~8 1/2" to make a platform and not ~10 1/2"


Height of the wheel wells


Widest width of the cargo floor


Height from seats folded flat


Very cramped engine bay


No room under drivers side engine cover


Possibly enough room for an air compressor behind the battery on the passenger side

Seen that GX550 still have battery up front. What about LC250?
Sequoia battery move to rear quarter panel.

Finally some numbers....Thank you so much!

Great work! Thanks much.

 

[TXSunDevil]

Thank you, doing the Lord's work Sir

that was one benefit of the old straight 6 engines — enormous engine compartment

Here are some more pics if interested.

Transmission skid.


Transfer case


A little more room between spare and hitch mount for a larger tire

Two observations:

• Does the engine subframe sit lower when compared to the 200? I need to go out and look at mine, because it seems that the transmission skid sits quite a bit lower than how my Slee skids are setup on the 200. Looks like the engine subframe is the driving factor here.
• It seems that the Tcase on the LC250 may have a bash guard on it, similar to the LC200; but it appears that the GXOTs do not have a bash guard?

Don't know if y'all are checking out the new Trailhunter 4Runner but it has an air compressor built-in with an outlet in the cargo area.

There was a picture somewhere of the same in one of the new GXs. There were no other details offered.

I was surprised to see the vacuum booster (vs electric booster).

What’s the pros/cons of this?

Turbo vehicle usually bad at creating vacuum under boost. They normally have electric vacuum pump to compensate for that.

The modern brake modulator are capable to do the same as the old expensive electric master cylinder at much lower price. Probably the reason ATRAC does not make horrendous noise anymore.

Well, pro of vacuum booster is it is simple and cheaper. Con is it doesn't typically develop as much brake boost or ultimately as much brake line pressure as an electric system. For me, I prefer the stock brake system to be slightly overboosted and so when I upsize the tires and add significant weight, it feels just right.

And just FYI, the LX600/LC300 has an electric booster but same engine. Cost cutting on the 250? Maybe?

I also am curious of these numbers.. thanks!

 

[TaishoCruiser]

Awesome - thank you for pulling those!

 

[Cablebandit]

Just measured the Forester, and these measurements and pretty much the same with the exception of the GX being a couple inches taller
