    I'll butt in here,, I have the exact rack on my GX It's the Front Runner SlimLine rack. I've installed the Slimline rack on 5 diffrent trucks since 2006 and have always been impressed with quality and capacity to weight ratio. All aluminum construction with exception to the perimeter rails I...

    Any Regrets Trading the 470 for a 460

    Forum readers,,, I've been contemplating trading my lightly used 2008 470 (106,000 miles) for a low mileage 2016 / 17 460. I started to build the 470, Roof Rack, drawers/interior storage mods/new off road tires. No lift as of yet, but once I stay committed to the 470 build that'll be next. I'm...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    UPDATE.... I've logged about 2000 miles since I installed the GY DT 245/75/17 in LR E on the GX. I'll admit they are still just a tad bit twitchy on road due to the narrower 245 width as opposed to stock 265. I've played with air pressures and 38psi F&R seems right for me. I was out in about...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    And to try to answer the OP's question about suspension...there's no basic suspension on the GX470 that is the standard as far as I can tell. In the old days on my 80, the standard was OME and it was easy to get a basic mild build for the 80. Nowadays, it's more complicated for the GX470. There...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    I'm noticing that the 245/75/17 E rated Duratracs are a bit stiffer than the passenger car rated Bridgestones that were on the truck when I purchased it. No surprise there! But they aren't nearly as stiff as the BFG KM2's E rated I ran on a Jeep Rubicon a few years back. As many have said in...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    After much contemplation my search ended today and new tires were installed on the 120. I've always been excited about picking out new tires. I'm sure many other enthusiasts also have the same passion with a little reservation on this mod as it may possibly be one of the most important mods...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    I agree with your reply. I've put the Load range E's on a few of my trucks (Jeeps specifically were impacted most) and found out the hard way that they were just too stiff for all sorts of applications. On and Off road. I really had my sites on the 245/75/17 DuraTrac but it's only available with...

    Load Range B,C,D or E

    Fella's I need new tires on my 08 470. I've narrowed it down to a few choices but want to ask for opinions and experiences with the different load ranges on a GX. Currently the car has passenger car tires on it Bridgestone HT's and they're shot. Totally an on pavement tire. I'm contemplating...

    Front Runner Slimline II Roof Rack + Light Bar Installation Issues

    Thanks JB, Good information to know. If and when I buy a 200, My plans were to fit the Front Runner rack, I've bought 3 of them for 3 different trucks, (LR3, FJ Cruiser, and my current 4Runner TRD Pro) I've always thought these were one of the best roof racks on the market. Versatility, weight...

    Am I foolish to Trade My 4Runner

    Fellas, Thought I'd chime in. I'm scouring thru the forum and educating myself on details of the 200. The forum has proved useful in researching the LC. Its given me an insight on the possibilities of a great build, not that I don't know how to kit a truck, because I've done it to many. But I...

    Am I foolish to Trade My 4Runner

    I've been looking thru the internet trying to find a 200 that is a few years old with less than 50,000 miles. There's a few out there. But they are commanding a high price. Not that that surprises me. But I went thru some Toyota spec sheets and found some very interesting information. The...

    Am I foolish to Trade My 4Runner

    The ride comfort of the LC is superior to the 4Runner. I test drove a 2016 and a couple 2008 units. Even with 160,000 miles on the 08's, no rattles, squeaks, or poor road manners. The LC did feel heavy but very stable on tar roads at cruising speeds. Much quieter than the 4Runner...

    Am I foolish to Trade My 4Runner

    Hey Fellas I've been contemplating buying a late model LC the last month or so. Maybe a 2013-2016 model year. Thinking under 50,000 miles is a good target vehicle. Here is my dilemma, I have a 2016 4Runner TRD Pro kitted w/ Toytec lift, Front Runner roof rack, and a custom built shelving...
