Awesome channel. I own a 2011 tundra and 2012 GX460 both with 175k miles. Very informative. Thank you!

I bought my wife a 2003 GX470 when they first came out. 15 years later and 360,000 miles I decided to sell and get a new one. Never any motor or transmission issues. I just felt like it was time. Fast forward to 2024 and her 2018 has a little over 80,000 miles. No issues!!! Fast forward to 2024, Out of the blue I get a text from the guy I sold the 2003 to and he sends me a text picture of the 2003 odometer and it now has 500,000 miles on it. He said still no problems with engine or transmission! I told him that sometime you just get lucky. I say all this because this engine and transmission really are bullet proof. All I did was change oil every 3,000 miles with Mobil 1 fully synthetic oil and OEM filter and did recommended service intervals listed in the owners manual. The 2018 I do almost the same except I use the 20,000 mile Mobile 1 extended performance oil and I change it every 5,000 miles!

Any updates on that long range tank that was mentioned in the video?

we have a 2010 with 250k on it. super solid vehicle

what is the exact wheel on this truck? also what size BFG’s are those? 35’s?

My first car was a 1995 non-turbo MKIV Supra that I converted to a single turbo. I sold it at the absolute bottom of the market in 2012 and it would probably be worth 3-4x what I sold it for back then in today's market. Still have the VIN memorized too--JT2JA81J4S0026961. Last time I ran it a couple years back the records hadn't been updated since 2019. It's probably been totaled and sitting in a junkyard or rusting away in someones barn/garage. Only car related mistake I've ever made in my life.

So a 4runner is definitely cheaper to own?

How much was the entire build with labor?

Hey, Thing looks amazing! Are those 35's on 17's?

deeper dives on rides like this would be awesome! I feel like this video was just a teaser.......

stupid question but would yall do a swap for TRD Pro black valances on a brand new ORP if I bring in the parts? Dealership was gonna charge 750 for the parts and another 120 install. I'd do it myself but have no tools and I'd rather not mess my shit up lol

Any watcher of the OG Top Gear knows you can’t kill a Toyota Truck.

I would blackout plasti-dip that chrome grille, it’s the only thing chrome - stands out way too much.

XD fine

Give the TOC numbers for Toyota Land cruxer model 79 1. Main bearing. 2conrot bearing 3 cylinder head gasket 😅

I'm looking forward to this as I just started my 2nd gen Tacoma build. The one that got away for me was my first car. AE86 Corolla in red/black. The Supra was more fun, but I still wish I had the AE.

Let me know if you want to modify the flat bed. I don't have the drawings anymore but that hasn't stopped me before.

Pablo is familiar with this vehicle, for me it was a samba green 1993 Honda Del Sol Si. I miss it until it starts raining. Luckly i have no regrets with my truck.

Your experience with the 460 mirrors mine - I've been surprisingly impressed with the capabilities. So much so that after a trip to Moab in the spring and a recent trip to the San Juan's, I've decided to sell my 4th gen 4Runner and make the GX my all-around off-road vehicle instead of just a dedicated overlapping rig.

I love that I did nearly everything you've done on your GX step by step when I was trimming the bumpers, sliders, and making room for the larger tires. This was the first build where I did all that work instead of paying someone else to do it and I think it turned out well. Looking forward to seeing what you do next.

Did you guys have a chance to compare those Elkas to Dobinsons MRAs?

Funny. On another channel, they didnt even need to do a bmc to fit 35's. It's all about rim offset folks.

using the Lord's Name in vain will not only cause you to lose subscribers, but GOD will not hold you guiltless... REPENT and turn to Jesus before it is too late.

Muy buen trabajo. El cromo de la parrilla no encaja no me gusta saludos desde Perú 🇵🇪

Where are you located , and whats the average cost for such a conversion. Thanks

We have a 2023 GX 460 Pearl White with a Red Interior. We bought it new, and it only has 10k on it. We have had it for a year and a half. We also still have our 2004 GX470, which we bought a new.

The aerodynamic drag of that magnificent mustache mostly likely cost you a day

I have a 2019 Sequoia and have been looking for a bumper for quite a while I’m glade I found this post . Thanks for sharing

Are you running -10 offset wheels without spacers?

What rear springs did you go with?... what dose Elka offer?

What a beautiful GX and suspension. Tandem Offroad is a North Texas institution; keep up the great work.

I’ve been looking at an upgrade for a while and remember your other video introducing the ELKA DC’s, thanks for the follow up. Few qs. 1. Do you have the rear air suspension on your GX? If so, were you able to maintain with ELKA DC or would one have to delete? 2. What size tires do you have and did you have to cut any trim to support it? 3. Is it a full 2.5” lift or can it be reduced? 4. With the lift do you feel any less stability on turns? Btw nice air! 1:17

I can't wait to sell my overrated lc79 v8 1vd to buy this and call it a day

Great vid love that jump, smooth landing. I’m moving towards 460 myself. What’s the total cost for parts for the Elka suspension upgrade?

What roof rack is that? I like how close the front fairing comes to the windshield

Love the 'WifesTaco' Tacoma! It’s definitely a favorite! We sent you an email, take a look.

James and I bought Jeep at same day from the same dealer in Dallas. He got black and I bought silver. My Jeep was fun in the begining but like James' Jeep, it started to give me problem. So, no more any Jeep product for me. I now drive Toyota Tundra and love it. Thanks for sharing James' video

I'd love to know how many miles it has? Badass truck and would love to see more on this truck.

A more in depth would be awesome! Start a whole series of stuff like that on customer builds and it would be a hit

I blame James for 2 milestones in my off-roading career, the most significant one being turning me onto Toyotas after a ride in this rig in 2011. Went out and bought a 2012 4Runner Trail Edition. Now driving a built, LS swapped 80 Series Land Cruiser. I’ve seen James do amazing things in this Taco.

Hey! Wife here. The taco has totally blessed our family and I appreciate all y’all have done !!

I have a ratchet locker in my 80 and love it! #solidaxlegang

Coolant Valley Leak Dude here😢

What’s the price for diff and install?

Do you think -30 offset would be harder to clear? Were you rubbing on the frame at all with -10?

Inferior?! Pffft.. I will shave your mustache!

More content on this 470 please!!

Inferior! Those are fighting words lol. I enjoy living vicariously through Pablo and letting him experiment with other peoples toys before I try it and break mine.

LX 570?

I love those wheels
