Bob...seriously you're amazing! Your GX 460 DIY content on you tube is the very best not to mention the entertainment factor. I think I speak for many in saying thank you. Cheers
Same, am just about to replace my brakes on all 4 axles and add extended SS braided lines. I've done plenty of brake flushes before but value Bob's input.
Awesome. If you do have a second person to pump the brakes for you, I’d save the $50 from buying the pressure bleeder and $30 for the Lexus adapter. Just keep constant visual of your master cylinder from dropping too low. Good luck with your brake job.
One of my customers owed me a debt and gave me this pair. Had no idea they were that much. Good thing these drug addicts can't repay their debt. My RUclips channel is just a front.
the oem moulding pieces for the roof channels are 2x Molding Roof Drip 75555-60050, and 2x Lexus GX 460 Moulding. Roof drip side finish 75555-60030.. half the price if you order from japan... youtube wont let me comment onthe roof rack video
Great and timely video. I ordered a Motive and the adapter. I did not want to cut off the end of my Motive just in case a family member that has a ford/gm wanted to borrow it for thier cars. I added a type T coupler to the Motive and replaced the 1/4 in coupler off the adapter. Lots of thread tape and it holds pressure and easy on/off. What are your thoughts on the dry bleeding method vs filling the motive?
Why would you take a simple care free method and turn it into an anxiety hell hole? The dry method requires you to constantly check your fluid levels, remove and reinstall your adapter to refill the reservoir, only to constantly recheck your fluid levels again. The most you’re able to do are short bleeds in each line but i wouldn’t risk trying to flush out your lines for a brake system flush.
Thanks GXBob! I just did it by using the other pump. It has a quick connector coupler so I didn't have to cut the rubber hose. One quick question... I'm pretty sure that i cleaned up the bleeder screws and the rubber caps very well, but i did find out some brake fluid in all 4 caps when i took them off after doing a 30 miles drive. Was that the leftover fluid in the bleeder screws? Or i should torque them down further? Do you happen to know the torque spec?
@@kengecheung9929 Torque wrench is not normally used for bleeder screws but is typically in the range of 10-14 ft lbs. i would clean up your residue one more time and just keep an eye on your fluid level.
I wouldn’t worry about her yelling about the shirt , I’m more worried about her finding out I’m wearing her panties while shooting this vid. By the way, lace itches.
@@juanchavez7418 2003-2014 is 85’lbs. 2015-2023 is 80’lbs. These specs are based on popular wheel and tire store sites that torque hundreds of cars per day and make adjustments to wear and tear. I use 89/90 because I take my wheels on and off far more than the average person to the point where the extra torque takes up some of the worn powder coat on the rims common to the lug nuts. The torque specs off the vehicle manual at 76’lbs doesn’t compensate for the intended lifestyle of GX owners and its wheels directly off the Lexus production line. If you choose 76’lbs for the life of your ownership, good luck and I’ll continue to pray for your family.
A different style of doing it but yes it can be done. I didn't include it because there are just way too many options out there and i wanted to just focus on 1 or 2.
On my GX I use techstream software to bleed the lines, it takes just 5 minutes. Bleeding procedure works automatically, for front line bleeding you don’t need to remove the wheels and open the valves as well. For back you just need to open the valves for couple of seconds with no wheels to be removed
I’m shooting a video that requires light and camera angles. My videos are also aimed at folks that can’t afford techstream because we’ve been sucked dry by our exwife.

Bob I really enjoy your videos for the good information you provide. But your jokes, comments and humor are priceless!!!
Thats a very rare comment. I usually have people telling me to leave the jokes out. lol. Thanks.
Delivered it just when we needed 👍😀
Thanks for posting GxBob. Will be doing this soon.
Same, am just about to replace my brakes on all 4 axles and add extended SS braided lines.
I've done plenty of brake flushes before but value Bob's input.
Awesome work. Great job explaining all your moves and equipment. 👌🧑🔧
Glad it was helpful!
I've scheduled this weekend to do this very job (and replace pads and rotors, and index the rotors). Perfect timing for your video!

Just casually working on a car in $1500 shoes. Love the humor while learning how to get stuff done.

Thanks for the information, I been putting this off bc I always have to ask someone to come over and pump the brake pedal.
Yes! Another great GX video by GX BOB IN DA HAUS!

Great Video Bob - thanks for the laughs too.
There’s nothing funny about a brake flush.
I wish you would have try the other pressure tester. The Motiva can be improved by drilling a small hole and installing a shredder valve from a tire.
Great suggestion!

@@GXBOB thanks . That’s exactly what I plan to do. BTW, I checked the fluid level and it doesn’t change at all.
what's wheel nuts torque spec
Even got that Asian straw hat on 😂
Great job 👍👍
Great video as always, Bob. Your girlfriend must be yelling at you for wearing a white shirt while working on your car.
I wouldn’t worry about her yelling about the shirt , I’m more worried about her finding out I’m wearing her panties while shooting this vid. By the way, lace itches.
@@GXBOB Did you put them back in the drawer when you were done?
@@ejagger It wouldn’t matter. She goes commando 24/7.
Как всегда отличная подача материала! Вы молодец!
I really wished I could read squiggly language. 😃
Hey Bob, how can I reach you to get a set of your Hayden trans cooler brackets??
Hey Derek, i had to restock my set of brackets because i lost them all in a garage fire. You can find my email through my RUclips profile.
Sup bob. What’s the torque spec on gx lug nuts?
@@juanchavez7418
2003-2014 is 85’lbs.
2015-2023 is 80’lbs.

@@GXBOB thanks for the reply !
Bob informing video, but I don’t have time to BLEED
Haaaaa.
Some folks bleed once a month
can it be done with Mityvac cavuum pump bleeder?
A different style of doing it but yes it can be done. I didn't include it because there are just way too many options out there and i wanted to just focus on 1 or 2.
Thanks for your reply. I actually just did it yesterday with mityvac, was easy.

@@GXBOB Don't even need tech stream, just turn ignition to on and the brake pump will pump automatically.
