Right now I have a 1st Gen Mitsubishi Montero which I love, but I know the wife does not like driving it all the time, especially with the baby.
I think she will like the GXs and I have always liked them since they remind me a lot of my Montero.
Anyways a few questions, even after doing a search I couldn't really find the info I was looking for. I've been eye-ing a 2006 GX470 in my area for a while now.
Does the GX470 have (brake actuated or LSD) traction control which will help if a wheel is in the air or spinning with no resistance?
From what I can tell there is only a center diff lock which is standard on GXs
Are Auto-Lockers (Aussie Locker etc) available for front diff?
While we are on the subject, is there a place where I can look at diff sizes (or names) or see a comparison between GX and 4-runner (or FJ, whatever is more similar)
Are all LC Prado parts interchangeable (if same engine)?
Any known issues with engine or drivetrain I should closely inspect? diff seals, u-joints, valve leak, etc?
Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.
