Builds JTGX Build Thread

[JTGX]

Long time lurker, first time poster. Figured I'd introduce myself

My build to date:

2006 GX470
- Icon Vehicle Dynamics Stage 1 lift
- 285/70/17 BFG K02s
- 17x8.5 SCS F5 in Matte Gunmetal
- ARB Skid Plates (rattle canned orange to see where I'm getting any hits)
- Rola Vortex roof rack
- Flowmaster 40 muffler
- chrome delete (matte black plastidipped grill, window trim, and rear "L" emblem)
- debadged rear emblems except for the Lexus "L"

Loving the truck so far. I’m not super into wheeling/rock crawling. I mostly use this for extended camping, mountain biking, and hiking excursions where I want to stay off the pavement as much as possible.

Do you happen to have a sound clip of the flowmaster 40??

I don't have a sound clip. I'll see if I can make one. It's very very tame. Not much louder than stock but I do like the over all tone, just adds a little bit of bass and growl to the stock sound. I've thought about taking the stock resonator off like a few others have but I'm not sure if I want to.
