I remember this LX when I was researching the purchase of my first LX - a Spinal Red/Beige 2008 - which I bought back in 2021. I believe I commented on your 200-series LX/LC comparison video back then. I’m on my 2nd LX 570 now - a sub100k mile 2015 Onyx Black/Black single owner no wreck dealer maintained sunbelt specimen. As you’ve said before, LX 570 IS BEAST! Going to sell the 08 and get my wife an 06-07 LX470 or LC. I’m totally hooked, man! Good luck to your friend getting what he wants on the sell and for his Gladiator search. My daughter wants a gladiator b/c she lives up north in the land of rust :(
PS. I looked in the description for the name of that wireless integration module Roy used to provide CarPlay capability but I don’t see it in there. Does anyone happen to know the manufacturer for that? As soon as I can find out who makes that I’m doing that to mine like, yesterday. 😊
That things looks so sick absolutely love the setup. I wanted a cruiser so bad but I got a dam good deal on my tundra. Ran the rock warrior wheels but they wouldn’t clear my reservoirs without spacers so I switched to some methods. I plan to run 37s when my 35s wear out
Good job Roy 🤙🏼 Front swaybar removed, which I recommend. However, on an LC, KDSS will interfere more than the LX swaybar. Some have removed that KDSS as well, but it’s controversial. May want to trim up the front fenders just bit more if you keep it which I hope you do 😎
Hey, Great looking truck. Any chance of putting me in touch with Roy? I would like to know where he bought the drawers and how he updated the touch screen? Thank you
You didn't see this.. bc this one is a Land Cruiser and is a 2016 which is the most recent face-lift and upgrade to 8spd trans. Not sure what you saw for 37k.. A 2011 LX570 perhaps? Even 2016 LX570s gor for 50k++
The drawers are the Rugged Bound. LMK if you are interested. I am a distributor for them. It is made in South Africa. Best drawers in the market. You can email me at cruisingtheland@gmail.com
Looks great… just a question: Those BF Mud Terrains KM3’s - how high are they really? I got brand new 39” and they are actually 94-95cm, which is 37” 🤔
10:16 I have the exact same vehicle (minus all the cool upgrades) and my wood trip piece in front to the passenger seat has cracked. Does anyone out there know where I can find a replacement?
Not sure, he got it from China.. I would recommend the Rugged Bound Welded rack, that can handle 600lbs.. I will be doing a video soon on it, installed on my 200 series.
That is what I thought too. AHC in the LX570 is more tied into the traction control than the LX470. Plus you'll get warning lights. Curious how you override them or just live with the warning lights. Traction control wouldn't be such an issue if he also added aftermarket front/rear lockers.
Gorgeous! The rock warriors as such a tasteful addition. Perfect suspension upgrades.
Clean and practical.
Save it forever Roy! The is a gem.
It is definitely a Gem!
Nice setup. Looks amazing. Would love to eventually do something like this on my 2010 LX. Thanks for showing it
Beautiful truck. Most lifts I see on UA-cam or on the road are leveled. I prefer a slight rake, like you have here.
So good

Pretty crazy rake
Looking for a center stack swap like this for my 2014! Great build!
Pls post up links for the overseas add-on goodies…. Bumper and sliders specifically.

great video, i remember seeing this LX on fb marketplace for $37k....what a steal! what drawer system is that ?

Can you give links to rear window mollie racks and shelf as well as the apple car play upgrade system?
Not my Rig.. and he sold it.
Interested on how the AHC was removed
Remo e the globes, replace with shocks, control arms etc..
Any details on the car play nav unit upgrade? I have a 2011 that needs it. Bad.
I will ask Roy about that upgrade.
Thanks! It seems the 08-12/13 nav units have very limited options for reliable upgrades @@CruisingTheLand
@@CruisingTheLanddid you get any response from Roy on this “CarPlay” type screen mod?
Me personally I prefer LC 100 series, cuz of the good after market as well as the spare parts are available all over the world.
I have a 100 series vs 200 series on my channel, also a LX470 vs LX570 and LX470 vs 100 series...
Check it out!
What sliders ? And front bumper ?
I am not sure..I am.the original owner, and sold to the guy that did the build. He did say the sliders and front bumper were from china.
Nice! Where in SoCal is this?
Edit: trabuco for sure lol
Holy Jim Trail
Looks great… just a question: Those BF Mud Terrains KM3’s - how high are they really?
I got brand new 39” and they are actually 94-95cm, which is 37” 🤔
Yes they run about 1.5" lower than a true 37"
Does he drive it straight all the time lol ? I got 35s on my 1st gen Sequoia and still rub at full lock turn in reverse.
He says minimal rub at full lock, in only one direction (driver).
Does this suspension replace the OEM AHC?
yes
Where did he go to reprogram his nav unit!?? I have to know. This is one of the things that is holding me back from buying an older one.
Did you figure it out I just got a 2013 and want to do it
10:16 I have the exact same vehicle (minus all the cool upgrades) and my wood trip piece in front to the passenger seat has cracked. Does anyone out there know where I can find a replacement?
What brand storage drawers? Are what brand front bumper, and cost?
The drawers are from overseas and same with the front bumper. It is almost same as Dissent, maybe same manufacturer.
Where would I get information on the drawers?@@CruisingTheLand
Did you do a diff drop?
I believe he did
What is the roof rack brand?
Not sure, he got it from China.. I would recommend the Rugged Bound Welded rack, that can handle 600lbs..
I will be doing a video soon on it, installed on my 200 series.
What was done on AHC?
Removed
Can you turn the wheels at all?
No, he can only drive in straight lines.
@@CruisingTheLand😂
What’s the name of that nav unit?
would love to know as well
Taco dude 😂😂😂😂😂
That was classic!
@@CruisingTheLandhe was like let me just dust this guy while he’s talking to himself 😭😂
how did he get rid of the AHC on the LX?
Drain fuilds and unbolt it..Then put shocks and coils.
so isnt the AHC tied into traction control and everything else?@@CruisingTheLand
That is what I thought too. AHC in the LX570 is more tied into the traction control than the LX470. Plus you'll get warning lights. Curious how you override them or just live with the warning lights. Traction control wouldn't be such an issue if he also added aftermarket front/rear lockers.
Mine has 37s
