How do you compensate for the increase weight. Like in the 470 you have to add either heavier springs in the rear or a spacer and crank the torsion bars in the front?

As far as I know, nothing is to be done. I have my truck inspected at Lexus here with every oil change and have noticed nothing different bc of weight. Trashing on trails is a different story...but the truck is literally bullet proof in terms of the areas of concern you mention.
It definitely wouldn't be used for anything too crazy. That's what my 100 is for but what do you mean by trashing?
I bought the LX with bumpers already installed,so I can't tell you.But I wouldn't call it slow.
Body kit plus 16" steelies. Interesting combination.
While the body kit is appalling, the clear taillights look better than the standard ones, as do the blackout headlights.
Lack of window tint makes the vehicle look very different from the rear view - and hotter!

Robert,
I did see your trip and yeah you were 2 weeks early. I went to Leadville to race my mountain bike then we went through Moab on the way back. Bella and I was at Moab the week before on the way to Colorado but we didn't explore around.

Im typically on the trails every wknd- the truck just takes a lot of abuse and for now its my daily driver.
Back in 2015 when the LX 570 was still good looking
Car camping 2 weeks ago.
My oh-so-very stock LX 570 in the local state park - taking the dog for a hike. Looking for LC roof rails for the next mod.
3 year anniversary and I can honestly say that I am as happy as the day we picked it up. This is a great truck and will be with us for a long time to come.

What kind of bump or you got on there what it cost looks good
@SWUtah - It is the ARB Sahara bumper. We got it installed @ Slee and the cost for the bumper was just over 2k. We we were really hoping to have the bumper powder coated silver, but could not find anyone to do it in time. I will say that the black has really grown on us and I think I prefer it that way.
Looks great. Makes your LX look bad ass
