    Overall, things are great with the Lexus barring some maintenance items that need to happen before we can really start modding this stock GX470 into a trail monster. But for that we need your help. Please help us by liking, subscribing and sharing our videos with your friends or anyone you think may enjoy watching our content.
    We have big plans for this GX but we cannot do it without your support!

    Should have bought a Jeep! But that Toyoda, is waaaaaaaay more reliable!😊
    Happy you guys managed to find something!

      Jeeps aren’t cheap here because of status. Haha. But I’m planning to buy some tires off a jeep if that makes it any better 😅
      Thanks man! Really enjoying her so far.

    It’s nice to have a win when it comes to baselining a new to you vehicle! Glad the spark plugs didn’t give a nod to any unsuspecting issues and can’t wait to see it with the lift on.

      Yea, I was a little cautious but after seeing what I did... all systems go! Hopefully will get started on the lift this week. Just struggling to find Toyota reman axles, so may need to end up going with O'reillys/Autozone or some other generic for now.

      @@RichardBauer_ I need new CVs also but, as you said, they seem to be on a national backorder.

      First quarter of next year is when they think they will be in stock again. I am thinking of either just waiting or getting the CVJ reboot kit. I just dont have space at the moment to rebuild CVs

    Yer supposed to inspect it BEFORE you Buy it

    • @RichardBauer_
      @RichardBauer_  ปีที่แล้ว

      In a perfect world… but unless you buying a brand new vehicle, you never really find out everything until after you’ve owned it a few months or even a year.

      @@RichardBauer_ That's just dumb. If you can't inspect it, take it to a trusted mechanic and pay for a Pre-Buy inspection to make sure it's sound. Sure something will go wrong "after" you buy it but Ypu're buying a Pig in a Poke.
