    GX460 & GXOR B.S. thread

    i've had the stock suspension and accutune kings suspension on my gx. i do not know much about the mid tier suspension. 8112's/fox/king are designed for taking big hits. with the kings it's an odd "pillowy" sensation when you take a big hit. i wouldn't buy them if you don't have issues with...

    Builds Roody’s 2018 Lexus GX460 Build, Adventure, and Hooniverse Podcast

    i know you mean well but this isn't good advice for folks who swap cars every year or two. they will probably use it to justify buying a bigger better car than they can afford. also i think the financial analysis is wrong on a number of points: * you should compare t-bill rates (currently ~5%)...

    modify family car or buy a dedicated car for off roading?

    it was my first time to anza borrego. i went to the mud caves, diablo drop off, and sand canyon. i was a bit underwelmed. i thought it would be a prettier based on the number of people who were there.

    LC 250 pricing

    i bought my gx 460 new from a car broker. least painful car buying experience i've ever had. they drove the truck to my house and we were done after signing some papers. none of the gamesmanship you get at dealerships.

    What springs do you run?

    i've been talking back and forth with accutune about a lift kit. apparently my truck weighs a lot more than i thought it did. they are recommending the 14" 700 lbs king coil over in front and the icon-52800 3" spring for the rear. granted i'm a bit of an idiot when it comes to suspension tech...
