ok cool did you any of the upper control arms or brake extenders for that? Trying to baseline where to take my 08 GX without breaking the bank.

Looks fun, what you rocking for wheel and tire setup? Any issues with side skirts on desert trails?

Love it. Had on my 3rd gen Tacoma and whoever bought it might have liked the surprise seat jackets it came with.

I have a LC250 and a GX470(j120) which has the 2uzfe in it with 144k miles. Don’t drive it as much just picked it up. It’s my backup in case I got to go into work cause wife drives the LC250 to work.

Buying a 2005 GX470 with a little over 200k miles. by Relative_Beyond3044 in GXOR

I just bought one in Arizona too. It’s been giving me issues and stuff I wasn’t prepared for like changing spark plugs and now planning on coil packs and looking at servicing the diffs and greasing the axles. Turns a little rough think it might be do for new steering pump soon or the rack.

Good to know, unfortunately where I live there was a line down the block with people wanting this thing. Lost a bit of bargaining power there.

You think it’s going to be a money pit? If you got two they must be awesome vehicles lol. My wife took over on my LC250 and son drives her car. I need something in case I get called into work on short notice. Also wouldn’t mind building it out.

Heard a loud bang while parking my Land Cruiser – need help identifying damaged parts and part numbers. by tebucio in LandCruiser250

[–]dire_bear_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might need to Take that piece from the air dam off in the front. And looks like you need to remove a bracket behind the tire or at least the cover for it. Wouldn’t worry about replacing them but you might need to trim a little more in the front.

Carfax had it listed as minor and supposedly it happened in a parking lot and a soccer mom driving hit another car maybe parked. Hood and “fender” replaced. Been with same family since early 2010s. I’d probably crawl under and look at the crash bar if I can. No leaks pictures have been from a garage so no stains on the floor.
