Rear shocks leaking
Needs new window master switch
Gas pump clicks off when 3/4 full according to the dash gauge

Cleaned, removed running boards, installed TRD Pro wheels with 285/70/17 BFG AT. Had to trim a bunch of the wheel well and bumper. Had to fold the pinch weld. Tricked rear airbags with washers. BMC is on order to help rubbing offroad. Currently doesn't rub at all

Ordered:
JBA UCA
1A Auto LCA
1A Auto Wheel bearing/hub assembly
1A Auto CV axles
1A Auto front brakes and rotors
ARB skid plates
Ironman lift
7 and 4 pin harness
Spidertraxs Wheel spacers since these wheels and tires will rub the JBA UCA. I've never been a fan of wheel spacers but I'm not buying new wheels and tires at this point

Will update once everything is in and getting installed...
 
I am here to tell you that I like your GX, I just got one almost same thing and looking into the wheel upgrade, and TRD seems to be the most available option. DO yu have more photos of how it looks on sides?

I'm currently building my front end on my 03 GX with 211k miles. I'm curious how the 1A Auto products have held up on your rig?
