Yeah if I had to guess I think it should fit. Seems to be the same size to snap into that space.Sorry to bump this, but do you think the FJ rear diff lock switch would fit in the 07+ bezel p/n 5544660050 ? I'm looking for factory looking options to add rear diff lock...Here is a generic picture of them....
FJ rear diff lock switch
I went to mountain states Toyota in Denver. They ran some summer special last year, got the whole thing done for like $700.
Yeah no problem, I've had good experience at Mountain States. I'm in the northeast near Brighton. Yeah you are welcome to if you are ever near these parts. There's a several Denver area GX's, I'd love to get a Denver run together on some trails when the snow melts.
How firm are the foam cell pros compared to stock?
They are firm, but not stiff, I'm happy with the ride for sure. My stock suspension was really worn out and sagging, so they feel firmer to me than they may actually be just based on that. When I get my gear and rtt in the vehicle I think it will ride just right. Empty it rides great on the interstate and trails. Firmer on the side roads and such, but it's not bad. It's kinda hard for me to compare them to anything since this is my first lifted vehicle.
Hey man sorry for the late response. I didn't get a track to rivet into the roof with my order, I used the 6 mounting feet for the parado which bolt right into the holes that the stock roof rack mounted to. I've attached some photos of the feet.
Excellent! I think there are some wires crossed on their website, and unfortunately, the salesperson I talked to at Rhino didn't catch it either. I knew something was up when the box for the tracks said Pajero on it. Well, at least I get to return a bunch of stuff and buy a little more. Thanks for replying, it'll make convincing the dealer that the website is wrong a little easier. Cheers!
No worries! Good luck with the install. Let me know if you have any other questions on it.

Nice!
Nice! I love the rhino rack platform, I’ve had it for over 4 years now, and it has taken some abuse. I have the performance springs, I would describe them as comfortably firm and gained 2.5” of lift. I used the metal tech coil conversion kit. I did see an increase in articulation for sure. I am not running a sway bar link extension at this time. I hope to add that and UCAs down the road.Nice!

I'm eyeing that suspension. Which spring did you go with: comfort, performance, or consistent rate?
Im running same color (but 07 and sport) same tire (size), same rhino platform ( but backbone vs towers), same sliders, and considering same bumper trim mod. Your pix give me a damn good concept of outcome for FCP and skin trim.
A few questions though ...
How much lift did you ultimately gain? Which coil conversion kit did you use?
Did you see an increase in articulation? Did you do a sway bar link extension?
There’s a detailed guide on the Facebook group GXOR and I believe someone posted it here as well. You essentially have to track down your same year hvac controls for the non navigation GX, the model # can vary by year, so it may take some time to locate. You then have to extend some wiring from the passenger footwell to the center dash, and then you can run a double din head unit of your choice. It’s involved, but not terrible.
