Builds FLEXUS 2000 LX-470

That's... very clever. I've given my windshield a good few whacks already, maybe I won't tempt fate anymore. Do they make a lot of noise going down the interstate?

Been pretty happy with the OME suspension? I assume so if you bought it twice. I did a 1.5", a lot of people seem to complain about it being too stiff, but seems alright to me.

Not that I can hear. There is noise from the tires and roof rack. I’ve learn to just tune it out. When I bought the truck it had iron man on it. I’ve always had good luck with OME on my other trucks so went with them. I find them just right with all the weight of the truck and bumpers and drawers and what not. It’s a good balance. Nice a firm and tight.

Add some trail-tailor rear control arm sliders. Had to do some grinding to get bent metal out of the way so they wound fit. Better late then never xD

Few updates. I added a ARB RTT.

Also huge shout out to @lumbee1 for building my rear 4X4Labs’s rear bumper

Recently I added a new AC condenser, radiator, thermostat and fan clutch. AC condenser had some rot as you can see in the pictures. The last picture is all the mud out of the old radiator.

I put in a t-max dual battery system https://www.amazon.com/T-Max-Indust...-1&keywords=T-MAX+47-3800+Dual+Battery+System Also I was having charging issues but have fixed them! I did the sequoia alternator upgrade 130amp (side note you do NOT have to cut off the third bracket). It was super easy. Just need the new alternator and the plug (90980-11964) I also bought new splices (82998-12440) x3. Also the diagram is for a 2000 lx470. Thread that helped! Major Charging Issue Need Help

Beautiful truck. Saw you over on 70 before the hurricane hit and gave you a thumbs up. I was in my 02 4runner. Just picked this guy up--I'm in Durham as well.

Currently, I'm rebuilding the transfer case. It needed some new seals.

Here are some wheeling pictures from when I about rolled. The guy in the one picture is running over to hold the rear down a bit.

Hey. Your truck is really built. My lockers were installed by slee and he used the 80 series factory switch. See pic. They work like a champ. The DAC is the compressor.
