GX470 Off-Road Compilation - Utah and Colorado

Simple beast. Yours so far been my most favorite.

[@richfarfugnuven6308]

GX never fails to impress me. I really want one, but would need to sell my built Tj or my built diesel Excursion. I love them both terribly...

[@jordanlawlor365]

Glad to see more GX470 videos. I suggest different lines on a few of these clips though. Looks like it took a beating :(

[@Long02]

Yeah, it probably would have taken a beating regardless. That’s what the skids are for! Haha
You live in Colorado, correct? Your name looks familiar. I’ve hit some trails with some people from the Colorado Overland Meetups group. We’re coming back out that way in September and will probably be in the Ouray area.

[@jordanlawlor365]

Yep, in CO. I’m in the COM group, but haven’t done much with them since last year.

[@nadakidd]

I get why they recommend 35s or bigger for Golden Spike. Well done. Hoping to pick up a gx next year.

[@Long02]

Yeah, the only problem I had was the waterfall near the end. I only tried once before winching though.
I was also told I’d need 35’s and lockers for Chinaman Gulch in Colorado but the GX dominated it.

Great video! Gx470 owner myself with several mods but not ready to push mine to those limits as I only have 107k on it. I love hearing your wife at the end, she sounds just like mine.

[@Long02]

Thanks man! My wife drives a 470 too but hers is too nice to beat like this, lol. Mine has 168k on it and been beat on properly.

[@jameslangley9580]

You guys from Colorado?

[@Long02]

@@jameslangley9580 I wish. We live in Iowa, unfortunately. We have family in Fountain though so we frequently visit.

[@aaronnyl7429]

AWESOME! whats the lift on the eibachs?

[@Long02]

Front is about 2” on the perch it’s currently on. Going to raise it up a bit upfront when I change out my lower control arms. Rear is about 3” higher than stock.

[@archie9026]

Impressive

[@eriksadventurelab]

Looks great. I definitely wanna take a trip out to Moab with my 470. Are you using the LFD hidden winch mount?

[@Long02]

Moab is incredible and is now a yearly trip.
Yep, it’s the LFD hidden winch mount. I trimmed the bumper a little short but I love the mount.

[@Dirty-D]

Nice work. What is your suspension and tire setup?

[@Long02]

Thanks! Eibach lift, Freedom off-road UCA’s, 33” Kenda Klever RT’s.

[@IamJakePark]

Is this the famous black GX in Poison spyder videos ?

[@Long02]

I doubt it. Unless you’ve seen more videos of this GX that weren’t posted by me. Lol.
