i didn't see it mentioned above, but check that you don't have a seized piston in your caliper assemblies. our '05 used to eat rotors on the passenger side every 15-20k until i replaced the caliper.
I'm a fan of the JBA's - beefy construction, reasonable cost, simplicity, rubber bushings with sealed/fixed/greasable ball joints. What's not to like!?
I installed JBA's on our GX along with new lower control arms almost a year ago. GX rides great. I'd say the steering feels "heavy" now...
My brother bought a used '08 LR3 a couple years ago to replace his 80 series. He bought it in Arkansas and I rode with him on the drive back to Houston. On that 10 hour trip, we took turns driving the LR3. I have to say the LR3 is a pretty sweet ride. Plenty of power, great handling and very...
You got it. i connected an extra length of hose to that line and routed it into a gallon milk jug. I marked a line at 3 qts on the jug and my daughter would watch the jug while i started the engine. Once the dirty fluid hit the 3qt mark, she'd wave at me and i'd shut off the vehicle. I would...
Yes, it's a bit confusing which line to pull. My thought was to pull the "return" line going back into the transmission. The idea being that i would be getting fluid returning from the rad and aux coolers. You could get the fluid from the line going from the transmission to the inlet but...
good tech! did the same for our GX earlier this year. I believe i used the lines from the last picture because i wanted to flush the cooler too. Also, those lines were easier to disconnect - i.e. i could access the hose clamps easier. I replaced the ATF filter as well. Fill as much fresh...
We just got new tires for our GX.
wheels: stock
tires: 255/80/17 Toyo Open Country AT II
spacers: none
Lift: TJM 2.5 lift with JBA upper control arms. lowest perch setting on front springs.
These fill the wheel wells so much better than the previous 265/70/17's . My biggest concern with...
Did you have the CEL's before installing the kit? I think you're on the right track with checking the wiring.
Our gx is an '05. I installed the bypass kit years ago and it continues to do it's thing without issue. I put some photos in this thread but no pics of the wire going to the relay...
Those of you running 255/80/17's are you experiencing any change in the harshness of the ride? I ask because our GX is due for new tires and currently has 265/70/17 load range C. I want to go 255/80/17 but notice they are all load range E. Thanks!
