By far one of the best overlanding videos I've seen, especially because I'm trying to find a GX470. I'm glad yours isn't modded to hell and back yet that way it feels more realistic.
Appreciate it, my goal for it is a simple build (lift kit, bigger tires and skid plates) but who knows let see how far I can keep it going.
I am also looking for a GX470 here in canada and let me tell you its tough lol we are late to the party
@@MrBobbymacs yes they have become very popular in the off-road/overlanding world. Is hard a find one in good condition at a good price.
Dope video. Just picked up my 2005 GX470 with 105,000 miles 🥳
Wow that’s a crazy find that’s really low miles for this vehicles.
Looks like you will be adding some skid plates and rock sliders… Especially since you took off the running boards, so there’s no door edge protection. Still it’s a cool factory demo.
That’s next on the list for sure, you’re correct I don’t have much protection right now. I just decided to get some higher ground clearance first.
Just drove past you on the road. That shit is clean af. I was honking at you lol
+Nathan Alvarado 😁 thank you man is a work in progress.
KEEP UP THE GREAT CONTENT MAN! 💯 😎
I’m brother thanks for the support 💪
Old samurai. Good judgment
+frank sieckmann that’s thing still running. The owner is thinking of doing an engine swap on it.
Just found your video, awesome man I picked one up a few months ago!
+Aj Malave you planing of taking it off-roading?
Did you use your lift control for clearance? It raises it in the back a few inches. Mine leaves fluid from under the dadiator cap. See if it's stained. It's hard to see under the plastic covers. A new cap may fix your leak ! I'm keeping mine stoch suspension. Thanks for showing me what it will do. I got stuck bad in deep snow and posted a video.
I did raise the vehicle to Hi with the lift control it was just not enough ground clearance for some of the spots. The radiator was just the original one and it start a very low leak from the seams. I already replaced the radiator with a Koyo replacement and I also got a new cap as well. I’m very happy with how they perform.
Alternators are common and fairly ez… might as well swap radiator… most have gone or are going out anytime now…
You’re not kidding just came to top golf with my daughter and boom radiator blew up 😂
Nice
Looks like fun
It was until I had to replace my alternator and radiator 😂
This is no lift? And what size tire
Yeah that’s stock height with 265/70r17 tires or 31.6”. I just bought a dobinson 3” lift kit with extended travel on the rear I’ll be installing in the next couple days when I get some time to install it and make a video 😉 stay tuned.
@@GabesGarage any rub at stock suspension with the 265/70/r17? Are they KO2’s?
@@blazarep it was only rubbing on full lock when I had the stock suspension but it wasn’t too bad. Those are KM3 tires
Something is wrong with that samurai cause those are very capable offloaded much better than that crappy Lexus
+W4MBU 😂 they need to be heavily modified for that to be the case. You must don’t know about this cars or landcruisers.
@Gabe's Garage I've owned a 4x4 land cruiser JDM right hand drive and sorry my man not that impressive offloading. The suspension is ok for offloading but the rest of the vehicle is not
@@W4MBU so you’re saying that you’re more impressed about a samurai than a FJ80 for off-road? I know I don’t have an FJ80 I’m just curious why aren’t you impressed they come with triple lockers and differential are strong as hell I seen many people running 40s on stock diffs and axles. There’s nothing wrong with whatever you said I just don’t think that a samurai is more capable unless like I said seriously modified.
Nice video man i gonna buy one how much you have yours ?
+Ricardo Espinoza I got mine for 12k
@@GabesGarage how many miles on it?
@@DownAndDirtyOffRoad 258K and counting
Saw you at Walmart lol
+Blake Lewis with 500 subscribers you’re lucky you didn’t see me at the Dollar tree 🤣
Spends a lot of time and money searching for a clean GX and ruins it in one day.
How is it ruin ?
@@GabesGarage it’s all muddy. Mud never comes out
@@GXKid06 I can’t argue with that, it sure still have some clay after many washes. Once you go in, it will never be as clean.
Great video... loved seeing the GX470 in stock handling a trail like that.
Appreciate it man, I just finish installing 35” tires on it, it looks like a beast now I’m loving this Rig stay tuned I be dropping the video in a few days.
@@GabesGarage nice! I'll check it out when you do
Got one almost like yours. Same color, 2005. Think I’d like it in light sea foam green
+frank sieckmann do you take it on trails/off-road they’re great vehicles
ATRAC rules! guys let's keep the GX to ourselves 😁
It does amazing things make things look easy. I love ATRAC
What size are the tires?
Never mind I found it they are 265/70 r17 km3
Sorry I never saw this comment, you’re correct that’s the size.
What year??
+Chansee Vang is a 2007
Nice car man. I went to a seasonal trail with the same set up lost a rear mud flap cover and the plastic fenders were getting pulled off. Sounds like the tensioner pulley is going got the same problem 👍
+jesus Spartan once you start wheeling you’ll get some hero scars 😂 what color is yours ? I have my mudflaps back at home I can give them for free if you pay the shipping.
I would love to know where this was filmed. Looks like a whole lotta fun
+johnathan hemphill this was filmed in Iron Mountain Offroad park, is In Dahlonega GA.
How’s the GX build going since this video?
+Travis Burk well it’s on 35” tires and 3.5” lift with extended travel on the rear. I could say it’s a different animal with just that.
Thing is a beast !
+BackwoodBenjamin is a fun car to go off-roading but it’s also comfortable to go on long trips👌
One of those side by sides probably cost more than all my trucks put together 😂
+sebastian romero and that’s why I don’t have one lol.
