Southeast GX Broverlanding and BS

Yes, we welded hinges onto the iceco slide and welded them to a steel bar. Bolt the bar to the drawer system and add a limiting strap in the back, voila! Saved about 200 bucks over a big brand tilting slide

 

Painted the spotlight lenses

 

Took my GX to a shop yesterday to install the rebuilt OEM LCAs and get an alignment. Since Moog sucks and lasted about 18 months before the bushings started to go. While there, they noticed the inner boot of my $40 Cardone axle was split open. It lasted 2 years so not bad. So I went home and took them the old axle I had taken off and re-booted. I may reboot this one, don't know yet. Apparently the GXOR people say the 5th 4Runner axles fit and are stronger. Who knows.

 

10+ 4R/GX/FJ are a bit stronger and also have an extra rib on the outer end of the axle.

 

So the 10+ 4R/GX/FJ Axles fit? My boots are trashed on the cardones I did 18months ago.

 

yep.

 

Speaking of CVs…

 

Do you move the dust seal over? For that price I would think a dust seal would be included

 

I've got a brand new bumper sitting in my garage:

It's still bare metal. Not going to use it. They're $1250 new plus tax and shipping.

$1200 firm. Located in Charleston.

 

Dammit. Why did we choose to go to Disney THIS year.

 

@SearArtist here you go.

 

Or any year! Gross .... Lol

 

I grew up going to Disney. Now I have no desire to take my kids. Would much rather take them to Alaska or the Swiss alps or just camping in the Smokey mountains…

 

eewww no

 

Dang! Really think this bumper is that bad? The GX itself is one of the hardest vehicles for me to like, aesthetically, and I found this particular bumper was the cleanest and complimented it's lines well.

 

Don’t mind him, it’s a good looking bumper. Some people just don’t like the look of hybrid bumpers.

 

For the price of Disney, you can actually go somewhere really nice. Instead of a swamp in Florida.

 

Ha! Na it's all good. The GX is an odd looking truck imo. So an idea of what looks good to someone isn't as universally accepted as other vehicle platforms. Some angles of the GX make me want to puke too. Trying to find armor that compliments its looks is tricky so I found this particular bumper to that the best for the weight/cost.

 

So which one of you are jumping on this
It’s in the area!!!
