2003 GX470 Gets 8.2” Rear E-Locked Diff with 4.56 Gears
Information on the rear sway bar brackets and the stock wheel hubs that were fit into the 8.2” rear axle housing from a 2016 KDSS E-Locked Toyota 4Runner to fit my 2003 Non-KDSS GX470
In terms of my rear 8.2” axle, this is what I ended up with (hybrid parts):
1. 8.2” rear diff housing with 4.56 gears
2. GX470 brakes (rotors, calipers, pads) and wheel bearings
Since I changed the front brakes to 460 calipers and 460 rotors…
I ended up with a mixed bag of GX470, GX460, and 5th Gen 4R parts

ADU Property Taxes in LA County
Переглядів 2845 місяців тому
I finally got my property tax bill for my ADU in Los Angeles County. The county uses their own formula to estimate the value of your ADU. I’m using data from my two units to illustrate how the taxes might have been calculated. Since I did two units within two years, the property value got commingled. For more information on escaped taxes, please see the question on escaped taxes: ttc.lacounty.g...

nice setup. may I ask which model of Napoleon this is? 700 series 32"? the grill cabin seems to be a little bit deeper (11.5") than what Napoleon suggests (10"). Thanks.
It’s a NAPOLEON Built-In 500 Series 32 in. 4-Burner Built-In Natural Gas Grill in Stainless Steel And there is a gap between the bottom of the grill and the base of the cabinet. I used the included side gap fillers/covers that comes with the cabinet to partially cover that gap
Thank you so much...I just experienced this yesterday! do you have a link for that bushing (purple)?
The price of this bushing has come done quite a bit since I bought it in early 2023…. a.co/d/c0G7Eqd
So have you changed the size of your spare tire?
Yes, my spare tire in the spare location is a 32.1” 255/75R17 BFG KM2 MT that has full threads (never used). My running tires are 32.76” when brand new and now that they are half worn…maybe 32.5” tall. That’s at 38 psi. And when I’m offroad, I air down to 18 psi. So, I figured I can adjust the tire height with the amount of air pressure. And I figured a 0.4” difference in tire size was okay to get me off the trail and into a tire shop. Also, I would try to repair my flat tire with the tire repair kit or the sidewall patches that I carry.
Custom order for the sway bar brackets?
It was included in the price by Premier West Gears to swap in the 8.2 rear axle housing and retain the sway bar. Transferred in the sway bar brackets from my 8.0 rear differential housing
Pre, the molle that u have outside rear window, is it attach to oem roof rack? Rig look sick🔥
Yes, that’s a victory 4x4 external molle panel mounted on a stock oem roof rack with universal awning brackets from exigex However, Exigex has a molle and bracket kit that mounts to stock oem roof rack exigex.com/products/gx470-molle-panel
@@MHam1 thanks a bunch!!!
Can someone please help with a part number or item number for the pin and spring?
It’s an aftermarket kit from Australia amts4x4.square.site/product/120-prado-gx-470-auto-shift-lever-repair-kit/2
Looks like a great time!
I was up there over the weekend, did the biting flies attack you all? man there were a ton of them!!
I was prepared with a bug net for my head, organic bug spray, and candles! Only had to use them at certain times during the day. I was there 3 days.
Я себе такой тоже хочу ,хороший дом👌.
Where did you get that grill from?
Hey man! I'm also doing a garage to ADU conversion and will also need to do this, my inspector said It's an Underpinning detail! thanks for showing this question, how much did the footing reinforcement job cost you? thanks again, and as a fellow UA-camr I know people ask a lot of questions and it's hard to get back to, looking forward to your reply
I did not get individual prices for specific work. I had a contract to get the ADU built per approved plans and I had a payment schedule of 10 payments based on completed work and passed inspections.
Very nice. Did the Napoleon grill fit perfectly in the cabinet are you had to do some adjustments?
Nothing complicated, but I did have to screw on one of the side brackets that came with the cabinet to provide a solid base for the Napoleon grill to sit on. The grill was about 1/8” too narrow Other than that… love the setup.
Crazy looked like Mac Miller was on the TV - RIP - Nice build
Thanks, same problem here.
Do you mind sharing a copy of your contract for template?
It’s in the video…I have a template shown in the video
Amazing!
Thanks for this series of videos, on my 2nd year of research and being undecided of starting this project 😂
Good luck!
What part of sandstone canyon is this?
It’s a short optional offshoot as you driving to the caves…don’t remember the coordinates
@@MHam1 oh awesome! It’s not part of the part that’s been closed off?

Thank you! You’re a lifesaver.
You're welcome!
Have a mini cooper 06 it only go in reverse need some help .
Auto or manual?
@emmanueldahn1433 automatic…GX470s did not come with manual transmission
Great video! Are you renting out your ADU? I am in LA County too
My son lives in it.
You’re my hero
This is very very nice. Can we get financing for an ADU in LA? Or did u do it all out of pocket?
One way to get financing is to get an equity line of credit on your main house to build the ADU. Another way is to refinance your house and take cash out. And finally, you could research if any banks have ADU loans. I heard some might offer this now.
@@MHam1 Alright. Thank you very much.
✌️ "Promosm"
God bless you! This is my problem my bushing is gone. I’ll look for it or probably improvise something with some wood glue ❤ I Thank You in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ !
Excellent video brother, thanks
Is there a similar bushing on the transfer case shifter?
I didn’t check and it’s not well known issue on transfer case shifter
@@MHam1I ended up using a string magnet I had laying around from an old hard drive so the right won’t slip off while changing from 2-L it was actually happening to me changing from 3 to 4 not anymore I’ll probably grease that up for there is metal to metal contact but that’s it mines a 4runner ‘07 as a wise man once said hopefully it will last me another 20 years ☺️
Any experience in pico Rivera
Who do you recommend for the plans ?
How much were the permits?
Great work
Thanks for providing time and costs of project. You did a great job with your ADU and kept your price low. Will you be able to make the blue prints available?
I have a two thousand two sequoia.... I wonder if it's possible without turning my mirrors off. I went through it in my nissan exterra before no big deal I used to have..
I will have to do this in my garage conversion in Long Beach.
What’s what size rims and tires are you sporting? They look really good on your rig 👍
Those are 285/70R17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers in E load The rims are 17x9 -12 offset MB Wheels 352 (Similar to the Method 703s)
This is absolutely beautiful!!.. Can you provide the contractor contact info . We are in LA County and would like to put an ADU over our garage...Thank You and God Bless!!
Hi! I am very much considering getting this same unit and I think I had the same dilemma as you. I have a closet that is not deep enough to fit the vent out the back of the dryer. Is there any chance you could let me know the depth of this unit when pushed against the back wall (since you have the side vent) I am trying to figure out if this will work in my closet. Thank you for the video! Very helpful!
Unfortunately, my general contractor left the original gas line and gas valve sticking out at the bottom. He never put the 90-degree gas valve, so my unit is not flush with the wall. Just be aware that the gas line needs to be in the right place too. Anyways, my unit is in an open space surrounded by cabinets, but one day I’ll get a plumber to come and redo the gas line.

Can you provide your revise plans, please?
Excellent work. This was $70k 3 years ago. Would the price have gone up now in 2023?
Yup…it’s $100K now for the construction and rising
Ceiling height? Where did you purchase your plan?
Standard 8’ celing for this detached unit. I came up with the floor plan and had a draftman draw the blueprints
@@MHam1 Thanks
Nice job!
Thanks!
This was a garage!!?? 😮 whooooa!! 😳
Yup…people crying when I tell them my son lives in the garage! They can’t imagine it’s a real apartment.
Can you please drop the links for parts that you bought? I am going through the same issue
I didn’t quite find the right spring on amazon, so it’s better to get this kit amts4x4.square.site/product/120-prado-gx-470-auto-shift-lever-repair-kit/2 I did find a 5mm x 35mm pin dowel on amazon, but they sell in packs. I did combine an ink pen spring (from a pen I had laying around) and a spring from Amazon 4mm x 15 mm x 0.8mm wire, but springs are also sold in bulk. In the end, my solution worked but ended up spending like $15 in a pack of pin dowels and a case of assorted springs. Since it wasn’t a perfect fix, I decided not to link the parts nor sell a kit. amts4x4.square.site/product/120-prado-gx-470-auto-shift-lever-repair-kit/2
So the link on top of this comment is the correct correct pin and spring the ones from Australia web? I'm running same issue
Yes, get the pin and spring listed on the Australia web site. Google search to see if it’s available in USA. I made my own kit from parts from Amazon, but I could not get the perfect spring. Easy to get the pin dowels from Amazon.
Perfect
That is a great price ! And will rent out for way more than 1% per month of cost, a great return if decide to do that, Congrats !
