    Monthly meeting place at Kilroys 730pm on first wed each month

    That's what I thought, I had originally searched for a local shop that would recommend, order and install the parts but was unable to find one that had experience with a GX470. When I asked if they have any experience with GX470s they recommended I call cruiser outfitters for advise and as...

    Just got back from camping along the Shenandoah mountains and wrapped it up in OBX - Hatteras Island. For situational awareness, I had just picked up my 2008 GX470 dubbed "Valkyrie" by my 14 yr old co-pilot/navigator and had it serviced by local (Pohanka) Lexus dealer and checked out before our...

    Gotcha, so if I want to stay under 2.5 as to not adversely effect the ride quality, what would you recommend as from your rad video shows this thing is an absolute Billy Goat? Oh and by the way we share the same Nordic Blue. I have my eyes on Method MR305 NV 17x8.5 0, KO2. I also agree that I...

    Good looking out, I called and they were great. They work with Cruiser outfitter from UT. I told them I was looking at getting 35's and was thinking about going w/ Icon's or Kings 2.5 coil overs. They said after time they would wear out more quickly than an Old Man EMU. I think the icons can be...
