    Prospective high mileage buyer

    FWIW My GX has about 198k miles and when I hop into my brother's GX that has 320k miles it feels the exact same albeit rides a little different because his has been converted to springs and non-adjustable shocks. I went from a 2012 G37X with 100k miles to a 2005 GX that had 185k miles and that...

    Too much rust or join the family?

    Did you find anything yet? I'm Aurora/Naperville off 59/75th street and found mine here in SALT land but it was well taken care of and I really only bought it for winter driving and when it's raining outside.

    285/60/18 Nitto Grappler G2 Dark Metallic Blue 18x9 FN Wheels BFD 6x137.9/0mm offset/5" Backspacing The threads about this wheel/tire package are old ASF and I tried to reach out to the people that posted them to no avail, especially with the confusion of whether it's 285/60 or 285/65 because...

    Eibach Pro Lift kit rear bad after 40K miles???

    Tires can be a great representation of what the suspension is doing. Cupping on tires is a very reliable way to tell your shocks are not operating correctly. That can cause the car to feel very similar to the way you describe but that would be if just one shock failed. It also could be bushings...

    Tire Size Question (Not will this fit)

    I was able to confirm that these are in fact 285/60/18 size tires in the pictures. I am glad I didn't order the ones I thought they were cause they wouldn't have worked for stock height.

    Tire Size Question (Not will this fit)

    In this thread (here) the thread title says 285/65/18 but in the description it says 285/60/18 which is super frustrating. I've bought these exact same wheels (different color) and I want to buy the exact same size tires as this thread as my truck will stay stock ride height as well and it looks...

    Cr*p. Want to keep bags, but may be forced into coil swap. Have questions, guys...

    Awesome, good to hear. Besides living in the salt band, somehow mine was serviced by the dealer for all of it's years and had the OEM shocks replaced along with air bags around 150k miles in 2017. It's at 190k miles and they feel great. Thanks for the reply!

    Cr*p. Want to keep bags, but may be forced into coil swap. Have questions, guys...

    I was wondering if I could hijack this thread a min with a quick question for everyone. I don't see people keep the OEM "adjustable" shocks when they convert to coil springs, is there a specific reason for that? I was thinking (when the time comes) just throwing in FJ springs and keeping...

    Sanity check on adding hitch receiver to 07 470

    My GX has that receiver (previous owner) and they notched the little hitch cover plastic piece around the upper part of that hitch.

    2006 GX470 Sport - from Chicago

    It's a 2000, it now has AP2 headlights and taillights. It is setup as a track car, has 255's squared, Fortune auto 510's, and some other goodies but I daily it in the non-salted months. I refuse to put a roll bar in it and a lot of tracks are requiring it now so it'll probably get retired. I've...

    2006 GX470 Sport - from Chicago

    Came across this thread looking for an answer to a question I had and couldn't help but notice we both have the same color s2000 and GX. And we're both from Illinois.

    Lexus GX470 CV Axles

    That's exactly what it felt like, I was worried it would fall off right in the middle of a 50mph 3 lane road. I'm 99.9% sure it's the CV, I bought a can of spray white lithium grease and sprayed it in the ripped boot to get me to the weekend. Went 60mph OTW to work this morning and OTW home and...

    Lexus GX470 CV Axles

    I thought the same with how it felt but the 15 mile ride home with zero noise or shake, or anything that would indicate that something was a foul made me post my post. I also should add, this morning, I went 50-60mph all the way to work and everything was fine I had zero curiosity something was...
