    This seems to be a pretty comprehensive guide. I would ignore the stretched boot mod.

    Yep that’s the video I plan to use. I like that he detailed the brakes/breaker bar method because that’s what my broke/no impact wrench ass will be doing.

    I do agree I will skip the boot slide part. I figure with high angle boots, and given my stock boot ribs had plenty of gap between I’ll leave it be.

    Are the hubs pressed in on the GX? This may be the move once I move into the new place

    It’s like sitting in a comfy recliner while driving :notsure:

    gotta fix the seat heater though. Driver side is burnt out.

    Got beside some lady today in a black non-sport GX470, she gave me a nod.

    i nodded back...

    Seems like most here are driving the 470. I’ve looked at a few 17/18 460s recently. Anything major to look out for? Would he daily driver with minimal off-road use, mostly fire roads, camping, fishing/hunting spots, boat/trailer tow, etc.
