Builds Project Overland Lexus - 2005 GX470 Build (1 Viewer)

[Lexus Overland]

Hey, Guys. I am new to the form but not new to the industry. Before I get into the build here is a little about myself. I am Brycen. I am the Product Manager at Low Range Off-Road. I recently bought a 2005 Lexus GX470. I have been to Moab over 4 times a year every day of my life. My Brother (AKA) Owner of Low Range and my family have been into Off-Roading since I can remember. Being that I have had other goals in life I personally never owned a Off-Roading Vehicle until now.

List Vehicles My Family has Owned

• 1983 Toyota Pickup - Short Bed
• 1985 Toyota Pickup - Short Bed
• 1987 Toyota Pickup - Short Bed Turbo Manual
• 1986 Suzuki Samurai - "Tweety" (What Started Low Range Off-Road)
• 1986 Suzuki Samurai - Buggy
• 1987 Suzuki Samurai - Toyota Axle Swap Vitara 2.0L Swap
• 2002 Toyota Tacoma - Prerunner Converted to 4x4 (Lefty Case 3" Lift 35" Tires Cab Cut for Tires)
• 2001 Toyota Tacoma - SAS (Current Low Range Marketing Tool)
• 1996 Suzuki X90 - SAS Toyota Axles "Tweety 2"

These are just some of the highlights, we have bought and sold many more Toyota's in our lifetime. So many I can't even count. Non the less, I plan to build my GX470 and hopefully I can help you guys out with your builds along the way.

I will also update our website to help you guys if you want to order some of the parts.

You sure know what you want. Why you going to 4.56 gears? What's the benefit with those tires? Just wondering

 

[half k cruiser]

Nice looking base vehicle. I'm assuming the 05 and up didn't have the dash issue ?

Oh, they did. My 05's dash was replaced a month or two ago.

Damn thats quite the mod list you have planned. I'm really interested in that Prinsu rack, any word on when it will be available?

 

[GXO]

4.56 and 285 on long travel is going to pull some major rpms. You can run 35" with that setup

There are 4 doing it now. I am doing it with standard length tc arms.
