Hi guys,
I'm looking to build a lifted gx 470. I'd like to go as big as I can ( obviously ) both on the lift and the tires. Id also like to run at least a 9 inch wide wheel with minor tire poke.
However, I will be daily driving this thing so the lift that I get needs to be able to take punishment all weekend and then still get me to work. This truck will not be for jumping but I do plan on adding power down the road and I'd like to be able to cruise down fire roads quickly. it will be more of a desert adventure vehicle than a true rock crawler. I'm planning to add sliders with the lift and then add offroad bumpers later starting with the rear. I
I'm also planning on doing a RTT so my suspension will need to support a good amount of weight.
I really appreciate any and all advice including "dont buy a gx 470 for that" I'm new to offroading but not to wrenching... ive been modding a '13 focus ST for a while
Anyways thanks,
CW
