Here we go again.. GX470

Thanks. Still a tad more to do but she's getting there. The missing mirror was a casualty during the install. Waiting for a fresh set to come then gonna just get them painted flat black. May paint the spoiler flat black as well.

I love how this turned out. Long term my plan is to wrap my Tundra, so your posts give me some inspiration.

 

Yeah that looks awesome

 

I've got mirrors again and a fresh detail.

 

looking great!!

 

Been dealing with leaking from the sunroof drains. Ran some weedeater string through them and cleaned them that way.. Was good for a bit then the other side started leaking. Did that again but threw the string into a drill and spun the shit out of it then blasted 150lbs of air through each of them. Spent the next 3 days in the garage with an Ozone generator running and fans all over to get rid of the smell. Now we're back outside to see if that worked. Fuckin' sunroofs. I'm a step away from just having a shop weld this bitch shut.

 

oh man...I haven't even checked mine, and it's been in a garage or under a carport the whole time so no idea if it's clogged or not.

 

Welp, still leaking. Dropped it off at the shop this morning to see what they can find.

 

AC has been a bit 'off' lately while sitting still. Had the shop recharge the AC and seems to be good now. I've been doing some Googling to see if there's a good fan upgrade that may help with this even further but hitting some dead ends so far. I see in the LX's they add an auxiliary electric fan but not finding anything specific to the GX that's being done. Maybe just a higher end electric fan in place of stock?

 

Subbbed

 

Currently working on swapping out the old trim pieces with freshies.

 

All new rubber window molding on the way too.

 

Hated these fog lights from the moment I installed 'em. They're getting returned. Changing up the whole fog light setup. Will update soon.

P.S... These Labor Day sales are killing me.

 

Got the weather strips swapped out today and swapped the back ones to the black Prado. Still waiting on the rear door moldings.

 

Break from the GX today to put some new steps on the other Tundra. This one has a fresh paintjob in a Corvette black. This one is getting a slight lift and new rims next.

 

Just ordered new front and rear speakers to replace what's already been swapped in. These damn Labor Day sales are killing me.

 

TEQ Retrofits going back to TEQ this week to get rebuilt. They did a horrible job but customer service has been great and they are going to rebuild them for me.

New fog light setup going in this week too.

Still need to find a roofrack.

 

Headlights for the GX shipped out. Lift and sway bar incoming for the black Tundra.

 

Your gx looks amazing man

 

Still waiting for my damn headlights to come back from TEQ. This has been a mess.

 

Replacement headlights back in. Now waiting for the new fog lights to be installed;

 

I'm kinda thinking about throwing on my 2nd gen 22" Tundra wheels onto the GX...what company did you get your wheel adapters from?

 

https://www.uswheeladapters.com/shop/oldtoyota-newtundra6-5-5/

 

Just finally picked the GX up

 

Noticed this just after I submitted my question to them lol. They won't go 5 to 6 Lug. But will they go 6 lug to 5? We'll find out.

"US Wheel Adapters DOES NOT convert (4 to 5 Lug), (5 to 6 Lug), (6 to 8 Lug), (8 to 10 Lug) etc… "

 

Time to find some more TRD Pro wheels

 

Now I gotta figure out why one of my fog lights isn't pointing as straight as the others. Hopefully it's not an issue with the actual bracket.

And gotta figure out why my AC that was fixed is back to sucking a little.

 

They said the 6 lug to 5 lug would require a 2 piece adapter. And that they don't make, sell, nor recommend 2 piece adapters since they tend to loosen up while driving.
