Wow nice build. Have you ever considered putting it on BAT? You may find a buyer there. I’ve seen many stock GX’s and a few overland builds do well there especially when a knowledgeable and engaged owner is selling. GLWS!

Very nice GX and a fair price considering the build in my opinion. GLWS!

@caanuck nice truck. GLWS. Question: how well does the VLINE2 work? Can you share where you got it? Thanks!

Very nice GX. I hope your health improves and GLWS.

Nice truck. Fair price. GLWS. Try BAT. IMO your truck would do well there. Except perhaps for the mileage, but still not bad for an 11 year old vehicle.

Cleanest looking low mileage GX I’ve seen this year. GLWS!

Beautiful…glws

Only about 1.5K miles so far. The truck is driven daily, but not far. I posted pictures somewhere on this forum. The UCA’s I bought look great in red and match the Eibach parts so there’s bling. What can go wrong with a UCA? Over time the bushings or joint could fail. Either or both are an easy...

Buy a pair of cheap UCA's on Amazon designed for 2-4" lifts. The ones I bought work fine. Unless you plan to do some serious off-roading, I don't think name brand UCA's are necessary.

Thanks!

I agree with the naked w/o sliders comment, but I’m going the cheap route. Local guy I know is going to fab them and shoot them with heavy duty truck bed liner type stuff. Still not exactly cheap at $800 all in. Should have them in a few weeks to post pictures here once installed.

Here's the "finished" product. Although you all know how this goes...now I'm thinking it "needs" sliders, and some lights, and a roof rack, and wouldn't it look cool wrapped in desert tan like the new GX550, and and and....!!!

I learned how NOT to press out and replace a LCA ball joint yesterday. Almost got hurt using a janky Harbor Freight press. The right way to do it is to take your LCA and a new Dorman ball joint to your neighbors mechanical shop. Ask nice and give him $20 to do it in five minutes with the proper...

Latest picture of the front end. If all goes well, should be back on the road by Monday to get an alignment and SMOG.

I'm going to let him drive the truck for a bit starting next week and then decide whether to drop another $1K into it for sliders. BAMF, JW, White Knuckle and CaliFab are all in NorCal (I think) so I can easily pick up form one of them and avoid shipping.
