I ordered some G8 LED low beam bulbs after reading a bunch of reviews and looking at pictures. Dan Kunz gave out a discount code so I figured what the hell. These things layout some light! I'm impressed and going to get the high beams now as well. As for the fog lights I just ordered some Ebay...
Well I guess a little update lately on the ride. I've been pretty busy and sometimes I do things to it and forget to take pics.
The front grill was looking a little rough so I went ahead and sprayed it satin black with satin clear.
Also added the LRD stickers from Blake Heiner on GXOR. And...
Mine seems to be the worst when I have the pump inserted all the way in. If I pull the pump neck out just a little to where it almost seems it's going to fall out, I can set the trigger and it won't shut off. It's friggin weird. I thought mine was the only one that did that Til I read this thread.
Very nice ride! Love that sport interior.
Thank God you chose the GX over the LR4! I got one in my shop that I feel like I'm married too because it won't go away.
What are the big plans for the ride??
Installed 2 FEQ axles. I've always had good luck with these even in foreign cars as well. And the two year warranty isn't shabby either. However, I'm starting to hear some upper ball joint noise. Looks like a set of total chaos UCAs is in the near future.
Also replaced front and rear diff...
I called Toytec and talked to David who is also on GXOR. He gave me the same information that everyone else did. I appreciate everyone's input and information! Here's on the second perch. Looks and drives so much better
I remember reading that thread about a week ago but he never stated which perch the springs were installed on and which one he dropped it down to. But I also kind of half ass read and grazed too.
No I did not install the diff drop kit. I was told by a number of people I'll be fine without it...
Yeah. I've been bouncing around with a few people on GXOR on how to properly set the 5100s. I guess I just was thinking differently. I come from lifting jeeps and trucks and have never installed a set of adjustable struts. They've always been springs or spacers lol.
Upper control arms are...
Got to install the lift today!
2.5" 5100s set at top notch, Toytec 3" springs all the way around, 1.25" wheel spacers, 285/70/17 Dynopro MTs. I love the way it looks!
I should have went ahead and forked out for the SSO rear spring conversion. I'll probably end up doing that since I don't...
Haven't figured out the spare situation yet. The only other spare size I have is a 265/70/17, which wouldn't work if used as a spare. But I might throw it under there anyway. I plan on getting a roof rack on the near future and end up locking one down up there.
A 120 series is always a good...
3/14/17 update!
Finally was able to order a lift a little sooner than expected! Ordered some 2.5" Bilstein 5100s, Toytec 3" lift springs all around, 1.25" wheel spacers, and found some half worn Hankook MT 285/70/17 for cheap to run for now. Once these get worn down I'll probably go down to a...
Got the 2.5" Bilstein 5100s delivered, 1.25" wheel spacers delivered, rear spring conversion kit delivered, now just tapping my foot waiting for these toytec springs to get here
We got it all figured out. My GX doesn't have the 2nd row DVD and he gave me a kit that did. Hence why I was short map light boards. And he sent me some new reverse bulbs.
I have to give a shoutout to Paul for making things right. We emailed back and forth Til we figured it out. Thanks man!
Just bought Bilstein 5100s with the Toytec-Eibach 3" springs all around thats been sitting in my cart for 2 weeks. Been having quirky air spring issues and finally said F-it after a few mixed drinks last night lol.
Did the Pfran LED interior kit. However it didn't come with the cargo circuit board. I emailed them about it but havent heard back yet. Heck of alot brighter though!
