    I just bought a '03 GX470 from a friend of mine last week. I have been casually looking for a nice GX to come up for sale for the past year and my buddy needed money so he asked me if I was interested. Yes, yes I was!

    It's a non-nav, non-KDSS, with 95k miles. Mostly stock but the factory running boards have been removed, 2" spacer lift in front, has 255/75/17 Goodyear Duratracs, and some gold 17x8 Level 8 MK6 Wheels. I don't plan on doing much to her beyond some basic creature comfort mods and a nice suspension set up (rear coil conversion). We all know mod plans can change in an instant however.

    I made this thread to keep track of mods, maint, and notable happenings in Bertha's life.

    Current Modifications:

    2" spacer lift in front
    255/75/17 Goodyear Duratracs
    Gold Level 8 MK6 wheels, 17x8
    Removed factory running boards
    Weathertech floor liners
    Ceramic tint

    Last week I got the front windows tinted to match the rest of them. This weekend I'm paying my buddy to replace the timing belt/water pump.

    Got her all shined up. Not too bad for 15 yr old paint.
