I am 98% confident that all GX460 models (with ACC) will work. I am willing to take the plunge. I seriously doubt that Toyota went through the trouble to swap the ECU, lock it out, and re-test the entire vehicle parts chain just to add Apple Carplay for the 22/23 models. Just need to yank out...

Unfortunately, newer Tundras are affect by TSK (Toyota Security Key). I believe Comma has been working on this for a while now. This has nothing to do with th EPS controller or the motor, but the issue is that Toyota has been gradually locking out the ECMs. I do not believe that the older GX...

May I ask why you have all these detailed pics of the Tundra EPS & GX460 racks? Are you also in the process of swapping it out?

Thank you so much for those pics! Looks similar in size to that of the land-cruise racks. I am feeling optimistic!

Good question. Fo me, it's 3 things. 1. GX460 gets high praise due to being all mechanial / hydraulic steering. For me, it's too stiff. 2. My 23 GX will be converted to do more heavy off-roading. I'm sure the standard rack is beefy enough, but many convert their racks to that of previous...

Thank you. I guess the wait begins...

Does anyone know if the EPS / Steering rack on the GX550 is the same as the ones on Tundra / Sequoia? I am in the process of modding my GX460 to the EPS unit via custom fab & minor tweaks as necessary. If the parts are identifical to Tundra, then I don't have to wait for the GX550 to be rolled...

Does lexus also sell the seat cover replacement? I have the aniline (not sure about the spelling) seats, planning on keeping my GX until it does (2023 model). Seeing this thread, I'm thinking it may be a good idea to order a set for the front. With my typically seats are the first to go when...

Here are some videos regarding why I want this (I think it's the best system). Also, here vid on the installation. There i a sucktion mount for this, but I am really trying to avoid this, and have a clear install Here is a link to the page for installaton (there is a video tutorial in...

Yes you are correct. There is an airbag in there. But it's perfectly fine. Banks sells these pod mounts on limited variations of the vehicles (mostly diesel). My Ram 3500 has it as well. But the way the wires are routed in there, it doesn't interfere at all. And I am personally ok with it...

I hope a 3D printing ninja w/ a GX joins this thread and look into this for us. I love the iDash / SuperGauge. Would be awesome to mount this onto the grab handles of the GX. Here's an example of what I'm looking for (this is for Jeeps)...

If the 3D printed pod mount option doesn't work out, that is definitely an option as I have an unused android backup phone which I can mount as a dedicated gauge & other duties. Great idea! Still not giving up though :p

I am planning on installing 2 gauges (Data Monster & Super Gauge) on my 23 GX. Anyone using the same gauge? I use this setup for my Ram 3500, and love it. I want banks specifically because I want to have their pedal monster installed as well. Only problem is where to mount it permenantly and...

I don't think we'll take it that far to bring in an electrical engineer. Steering just needs to be converted to electric and connect it to the canbus like many other EPS upgrades out there. Once connected to Canbus, Commai Ai controls it by giving it left or right commands. Commai AI has all...

Hopefully someone who is very mechanically inclined can join in the conversation and provide some constructive feedback to make it happen. Either adapting the Tundra's rack & column or wait and see what mods are required to make the GX 550 components to work on the 460. I would prefer the...
