    Great vid...Love you guys. You actually inspired me to pick one up a few weeks ago. First thing I did was follow your vid on the TPMS disable. Literally did it yesterday. So easy. And grabbed a set of KO2s last week. Helped the look of the truck so much. Thank you. Keep up the great content!

      Spunkkat thank you we appreciate it! We had so much going on with the 997 lol and the GX has just been doing what a GX does.... not breaking lmao. We do have some GX projects lined up tho... covid has slowed us down a bit, but we will get to it!

    Awesome looking GX, man(And Wifey).. Yes, LED headlights were one of the first things I did. I also did LED Yellow fogs to give me that cool factor, 3 seasons, while in the snow/winter it's a safety feature.. That Roof Box is Fire!!!

    Great channel guys! Just subscribed. Love your comment about the gx470 being perhaps your favorite car of all time. That’s saying a lot considering all the nice cars you’ve had. Makes me proud since I own a 04 gx70 as well.

      Thank you for watching and subscribing! This vehicle is so good at everything it is hard to not love the GX 470! The price is great. It looks awesome with a few mods. It’s ridiculously reliable and well built. It ticks so many boxes, idk if Toyota will ever be able to top the GX470. I owned a FJ80 years ago and I loved that as well but the GX more well rounded I would say. The only thing I think might come close is the new Landcruiser. I love that new LC but the price is 😫😫😫😫!

      Holy moly! I bought a 2008 with about the same mileage. I'm scared to ask how much you guys paid because I may have gotten rap. . . "taken advantage of." I wanted it so badly, though, because it was in perfect shape, had already had the timing belt done, and was a one-owner that had never lift Arizona (no rust). I think it was about $18k. It had everything I wanted, including a back-up camera, moon-roof, and KDSS. OK, now I'm just making excuses for my poor negotiation skills.

    Don't get the tesla style nav. you basically lose all of your physical buttons, have to take your eyes off the road, and rely on the screen which isn't intuitive at all since there's no tactile feel. something as simple as turning down the fan or adjusting volume becomes a multistep process. there's a better 9in android head unit out there for the gx's that dont have factory nav

      Sorry for the late reply, so I was recently helping a friend find a GX and man it was tough! He ended up going with an FJ because the market has gone crazy on GXs all the ones we looked at were dogged! Things to look out for would be, making sure the timing belt has been done, cracking dash, leaking valve covers. That is really about it other than those things these vehicles are beastly!

    I genuinely enjoy watching your videos. Your videos had much to do with my decision to purchase my gx 470. I do have a question about the ride quality about the springs you switched to. Now that the springs have settled, how would you describe the ride quality?

    • @KRTLyfe
      @KRTLyfe  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The ride quality is awesome! No different from the bags in my opinion. I will say this tho now that we use our GX for camping a lot. If you see yourself doing one of those heavy overlanding builds you might want to consider stiffer springs.

      @@KRTLyfe that’s good to hear thank you, and as far as my plans for my Gx go, I plan to keep it on the more balanced (road/trail) styling similar to your setup. It’ll be used for camping and family trips. Keep up the great Gx470 videos.

    Thank you for the video! I just bought my gx and want to change my rims and tires, surprise surprise! 😂 Any rubbing issues with the new tires? I personally want to find the best offset/size I can do without cutting the frame and fenders.

    • @KRTLyfe
      @KRTLyfe  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      We went with these TRD wheels wrapped in BFG KO2.
      No rubbing at all unless backing up with the steering wheel in full lock.
      Then you get a slight rub on the edge of the tire. Other than that we haven’t had any issues with this set up or need to cut/remove anything.
      Congratulations on your new purchase!

      Mine are matte black tho. The BFG KO2 is definitely a little louder than a road tire.... but feel like it is the best balance “do it all Swiss Army knife of tires”. We have driven on the asphalt, mud, sand ,snow , ice etc and these tires have not let us down. We live in the south east so our winter requirements aren’t as extreme but we do drive up to the mountains to snowboard and got caught in a really heavy (for the south) snow storm. We had no problems on our 4 hour drive from North Carolina back to Georgia and it was snow and ice the entire way.

      I've had 265 70 toyo open countrys and 285 70 falken wildpeak. The open countrys were quiet i couldn't hear them at all. The Falkens are a little louder but you really have to be concentrating on hearing it.

    Do the 265"s rub without a lift? You just did the stock size spring conversion right?

      jayzeno78 a small amount of rub reversing at full lock. That is it but its so small you might not notice it. Yes stock rear spring conversion.

      I put 285/70/17's on stock suspension, got some rubbing on the body mounts and the pinch weld above the body mount and the fender liner, I just chopped the mounts and the pinch weld, re welded and cut the fender liners and a bit of the front bumper, simple. They look dope, and give me some decent clearance.
