Details on my "build" can be found here:
Notable equipment includes 18-inch alloy wheels, a locking center differential, an Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system, Adjustable Height Control (AHC) system, front fog lights, roof rails with cross bars, a power-operated sunroof, wood interior trim, leather upholstery, power-adjustable and heated front seats with driver's memory function, a Mark Levinson sound system, a navigation system, and a rear-view camera.
Modifications include a Dissent Offroad aluminum front bumper with a small stinger, flip up front license plate bracket , 20 inch LED light bar, 2 Rigid Industries D series pro flush mount 3 x 3 LEDs, Smittybilt (98512) X2O waterproof synthetic rope winch - 12000 lb. load capacity with wireless / wired remote, Factor55 Hawse fairlead 1.5 inch thick finished in gunmetal gray, Factor 55 Flatlink shackle mount finished in gunmetal gray, Factor55 Flatlink rope guard. Metal Tech rock sliders. Four 17” Toyota TRD rock warrior wheels with the beadlocks powder coated gunmetal gray wrapped in Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac 255/75R17 tires. Tinted front windows, 15%.
Lexus introduced the second-generation LX for the 1998 model year. Like its predecessor, the LX 470 was a more upmarket evolution of the Toyota Land Cruiser that offered a well-balanced blend of on-road comfort and off-road capability, plus unique exterior styling cues (like quad headlights) and a luxurious interior. The 100-Series LX remained in production until 2007.
Power comes from a 4.7-liter V8, rated at 235 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. Output is sent to all four wheels via a 5-speed automatic transmission and a 2-speed transfer case.
