Wow its been a long time since I logged into this forum.. definitely glad to be back!

Anyway, recently purchased the Lexus with 97K miles (106 now) and meticulous maintenance history.
Put Fox 2.0 coil overs, (and air bag trick for the rear) as well as the 285/70-17 BFG's..

For anyone wondering if 285's will fit on a slightly lifted GX with a 17x9 wheel, they will.. but requires quite a bit of fender liner trimming!

Great truck so far. I have been impressed with its capability even in stock form, as well as its quality, power, etc.

I'm shopping the GX as well - what is the rear airbag trick? replacement?? ;)

Putting spacers in the sensors so the airbags over-inflate to raise ride height. You can usually get away with it for a while and get a nearly-free rear lift, but eventually the bags will go. Plan on a coil conversion eventually. :)
