    SSO Sliders

    The pictures of the 470 on their site are my GX. I can go take some more of mine and post them up if you'd like.

    Lockers options cost

    With AWD/full-time 4WD, if you don't engage the CDL and you get wheel spin, your rig just went to 1-wheel drive. All power goes to the spinning wheel doing no good. CDL at least gives you another wheel on the opposite axle. Something I just learned. What happens on the hill climb is you are...

    Recovery Straps and Accessories

    Haven't been on here in a while, just saw your reply. Side loading the shackle is when you are pulling from the sides instead of from the screw pin and the curved end of the shackle. I call them shackles. Some call them d-rings.

    Recovery Straps and Accessories

    Those front tow points are just that: tow points. Not recovery points to be jerked or snatched on. Not that you couldn't get away with it but that's not what they are built for. Like @little_joe mentioned, a bridle is better if all you have are those points. Spreads the load. Just be careful not...

    Wheel Opinions please

    Unfortunately, it's hard to completely rid the GX of the soccer mom look without significant modifications. It's a soccer mom car to begin with. A little lift won't change that. Ha. I do like the look of the 4R Limited 20" wheels on the GX though, if that's the look you want.

    Axle Help

    My pops and I have gone in together on a until it's trailer that's being modified to use for weekend camping. The builder can't seem to find an axle with a hub that will match my rig's hubs. I have a GX470. 6 on 5.5 lug pattern. Really would like it to match and I've seen it on several trailers...

    Almost 200k GX- Worth it?

    I'm not aware of a 4LO dash light. If there is, mine's out too. Lol. It's a full-time 4WD drive system so you're only switching between 4HI & 4LO, not 2WD & 4HI/4LO (You may know that. Not insulting your intelligence). My shift knob is also from a 100 series so the H-N-L is backwards from the...

    Build GX470 - Weekend Overland Build

    Did you mount the base plate via the existing holes where the floor tie downs bolt to? Hoping to get my drawers started soon. And, what kind of wood did you use? Thanks!

    I've recently had a few run-ins with that soft, moist substance that inspired the name of this forum. Ih8mud indeed. Superwinch Tiger Shark 9500 saved my ass both times. These first 2 pictures are from my hunting camp. It's a section of a road leading to a food plot we rerouted for reasons seen...

    Wheel options to clear control arms?

    The OEM wheels are 25mm offset. The lower that number the further it will stick out. Big difference from 25mm to -10mm plus a wider tire.
