Pretty much all the original parts are kept and included i.e. stock wheels on almost new 265/65/17 Firestone Destination tires (x5), front bumper, roof rails, side steps, 3rd row of seats and all the hard ware.



All previous maintenance has been performed on time, including timing belt and water pump. New brake rotors/pads (front/rear), new front calipers, new front left wheel bearing, new front left complete CV axle assembly (old one rebuilt and kept as spare), diff fluids changed. I have made sure this vehicle has always been well maintained and prepared for a trip.


This truck runs and drives very solid. It has a minor leak in the radiator, some crust from the radiator fluid on the drivers side (leak rate about 1/2 QUARTZ of fluid/6 months). But other than that there are zero issues, has been extremely reliable and performs immaculately. Cosmetically there are some minor custom pin striping on from brush/twigs.
Clean Title in hand. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you may have.

I've been following your build. Really cool looking GX. Just curious after putting so much work in why are you selling? What's next?

Thanks I appreciate it! Yeah it has a lot of man hours in it but it was all enjoyable time spent on my end. Family has grown so something with more space and maybe a truck bed, and I am eager to bite into something else. I haven't decided exactly what to bite into yet :)

Such a nice build. Are you moving to another 4x4 and starting another build? Good luck with the sale. I'll let a friend know about it - he's been looking for an LC but this would suit him well!

Since there are some minor cracks in the dash (You can see that on my pictures of the dash) that the 2003-2006 models where notorious for I figured I would post this warranty enhancement from Lexus which will take care of those cosmetic issues.

Wow that is really nice. A little out of my price range, but what a fun road trip back to Cali it would be!
