Sorry for the delayed response. I installed the bags. Work great. 7 psi lifted "stock" position for normal driving without towing. 10-12psi raises 1.5 to 2 inches for trailer sag. I did not use the OEM compressor. I wanted more control.

Hey Bruce, my recommendation is to leave as-is with the exception of the below quoted items. Then put a price that you are comfortable with. List for sell earlier than you need - there is always someone out there that wants a "turn-key" 470 and is willing to pay the price - you may just need...

The previous link was for the 4th gen 4runner. Here is a link for the 5th gen which includes the v8 engine. Dobinsons 5th Gen T4R Suspension options - lots of choices - Toyota 4Runner Forum - Largest 4Runner Forum Will do. It will be another month or so - UCAs are backordered. Below are my...

You may want to check into Dobinsons variable rate rear springs. From: Dobinsons 5th Gen T4R Suspension options - lots of choices - Toyota 4Runner Forum - Largest 4Runner Forum Rear Coil Options, even left to right height **Can be used on a KDSS vehicle if you offset the rear. Only the front...

After a year trying to figure out decided to go with Dobinsons from Treaty Oak Offroad. Will be buying this month or next. My needs are similar to yours. No rear bumper but will be adding a Dobinsons drawer system. I will be going with a progressive rate rear medium spring which limits me...

Hey Marc. I will be down in ABQ soon. I will ping you so we can meet up and you/wife can drive my GX470. Say hello to the High Desert Cruiser group for me. I have the non-nav and have yet to convert the stereo and integrate a backup camera. As you have read, has done many times over. Also...

White with tan interior.

Check the u-pull-it in Albuquerque, NM. I know a GX470 that was involved in a front collision. Maybe it is sitting there? Owner did not strip it. I did take the wiper sensor on windshield before he released the vehicle.

If you are going to run heavy with a winch, bumper, rear drawer system, tire carrier - expedition type rig - cannot go wrong with OME. I blew a front stabilizer and had an OME replacement the next day (thanks Kurt at CruiserOutfitters). My 80-series was heavy, OME was perfect.

Please, no campfires! We have had very little snow this past winter and the forest is extremely dry. Up by my house last week:

I have ran OME on a hilux, FJ40, and an 80. OME does ride stiff but no complaints. For the GX470 I am going to go with Dobinsons twin tube shocks with a progressive rate rear spring. I tow a small trailer so I am going to install Airlift 1000 bags. I looked at Radflo and Icon but do not need...

Today the San Juan National Forest will go from Stage 3 back down to Stage 2. I live in the Hermosa area just across from the 416 Fire and was one of the evacuees. When out-n-about if you see someone smoking out of their car or parking in tall grass tell them to stop. Ophir Pass will not be...

This is all.

I decided to leave my windshield washer bottle as-is. When it breaks I will worry about it then.

Bruce, what are you going to do with the fender liners? I just folded mine back and zipped tied for now.

Gamiviti roof rack. Have not had a chance to put much weight on it. I can push up on the rear of the class to simulate the rattle with sunroof closed. The Lexus mechanic said he can unclip the headliner as one unit and pull it out of the back of the vehicle. Will take about four hours to...

I had a very slight rattle before adding an aftermarket roof rack. After the install the rattle became progressively worse. Took to dealer. I discussed the TSB with the techs. They did not think that would fix the issue but were willing to try. They suggested replacing the Housing...

For me living at high elevation and towing a small trailer the 80 had to go. The V8 in the GX is great for towing. For me, a 2.5" lift, a little bigger tire, and a front bumper with more clearance in the GX makes it a lot more capable than stock. As far as cost of modifications, just depends...

A few items will change your spare fitment. 1) Having KDSS. 2) Factory tube style hitch. I just ordered some 265/70/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Stayed smaller so I can put the same size tire in the factory spare location. Did not want to deflate nor risk tire not fitting. Running stock rims...

Within the next month going to purchase Nitto Ridge Grapplers. 265/70/17 on stock rims as I need to fit tire in spare location and not deflated. Then go with Radflo 2" lift with Firestone Airlift 1000 bags. Hoping the Radflo kit from Metaltech will go on sale this fall during the holidays. I...
