Hi I'm introducing myself. I just bought a 2005 LX470 and am very enthusiastic about entering the venerable land of cruisers. I'm out in NJ & would love to eventually join up with meets etc.

To do list in order of importance:
-New suspension... AHC leaks like a banshee. Thinking dobinsons, 2"max
-New muffler & exhaust line. This ones gone
-New headunit... this ones got the nav so that'll be interesting
-Trunk organizer of some sort to store all my work gear - ladder, toolbag, survey wands etc.

Will be taking it slow as the budget allows & gleaning what I can from here.
 
I'd make it a priority to fix that leak. The AHC is the best part of the LX470.
 
Welcome aboard, I'm also from NJ and have spotted that truck in the past in the Pomton/rt 23 area. It was an easy spot as it's the same color, same wheels as mine, almost twins. If you need any help with checking off items on that to-do list, feel free to reach out, I'm in Bergen county.

I've met some of the guys in the Gotham City land cruiser group at coal mine, and have tagged along with the guys in PA with keystone cruisers as they have pretty frequent trail rides. When you get a chance, check out the clubhouse section for local groups.
