I have watched this video numerous times and keep coming back to it. You were the inspiration behind me buying the LX570. I had been considering a Toyota Tundra or an SUV and when I saw your video and adventure - I went and bought an LX.
Thanks man! It’s really been a surprisingly balanced vehicle on oversized tires. I hope you’re enjoying how much of a sleeper it is for a do everything rig 🤙🏼
@@tiny_the_200 Absolutely- this vehicle is perfection on wheels. Best described as a Velvet Hammer 🔥
😂 velvet hammer 👍🏼
This off-roading is so calm and peaceful! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! It’s wonderful to have such beautiful places close by 😉
Sweet rig and great footage! I have a 2011 LX that runs perfectly with 216k miles. Planning to swap to 18” wheels and go with 34” falkens. Excited to start hitting the trails. Cheers.
Thank you! I've enjoyed it immensely and hope you enjoy yours too 👍🏼
Totally awesome. I inherited a 2009 LX from my grandmother. Going to put on some 275/60/R20 (33” tires), but one day this is what it will become. I can’t believe how few modifications it takes to fit a 37. It’s cool owning a vehicle as strong and well built as these.
Not much cost into the parts it took to get mine on 37’s but certainly some time-consuming labor involved 🤷🏻♂️
Hey have since read about this a lot more! Going to stick with 34” Toyo ATs on factory 20s with spidertrax spacers. Still an incredible video.
I want to add Werewolf portals when I inherit mine or buy it from my mother in law. 5" of lift with stock suspension and equates to a 4.90 gear ratio. 3" wider per side too I believe. Can run 38"s with no other mods.
@@austinaubinoe2195 at some point it’ll be worth moving down to an 18” or 17” rim, more and cheaper tire options over the 20”’s, more sidewall and better air’d down performance as well. You can usually find a cheap set of Toyota rims floating around for sale pretty readily
0:58 that was a bald eagle flying through wow that’s awesome
Yes, it was. I just happened to catch it on video! I got to watch it clearly fly past and out & over the lake to the left. Pretty cool indeed 😳
Hamad, good catch! Thank you. A little adjustment though so no one misses what you saw. 0:53
So good
Who nails aesthetics like this
very nice, relaxing video! just subscribed!
Thanks 😉 glad you liked it. Having spent the time to get these clips with just my phone and then edit them makes me appreciate how much work it is for other overlanding channels that make great content 👌🏼
Itle make you rip your hair out! Lol
❤️❤️❤️❤️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥✊💪
I recently bought a 09 gx470 in excellent shape my question is besides the motor what are differences between your lx an my gx drivetrain wise thanx that lx is sik.
I haven’t owned a GX yet but one thing is this has the hydraulic suspension vs pneumatic. Seems a lot of people swap out the GX suspension and quite a few people enjoy and try to maintain the LX AHC. The GX is smaller and better for fitting down tight trails. But because it’s larger, the LX & LC seem to use heavier duty components throughout the drivetrain, making running larger tires a little easier.
@@tiny_the_200 Thanx bro.
Your truck looks so good with different rims and tires than the original ones.
I have a 2011 LX 570 and was wondering what size wheels you have and also what size tires.
And did you modify the suspension?
Looks like it is really performing great on the rocky trails.
Thank you ☺️ Wheels on it for this trip are 17” Toyota Tundra Rock Warrior wheels that were turned into true beadlocks by OMF. Tires are 37x12.5R17 and if you look through many of the comments, you’ll get an idea of what I’ve done to fit them. I.e. body lift and cutting sheet metal primarily.
I want one so bad
This a great looking build, what year is it?
Thank you! It’s an 08’
Nice LX on 37. Did you regear for the 37" tires or kept stock gear?
Thank you! I haven’t regeared yet. I made a mistake maybe 4 months ago on the rear R&P, and now the replacement has been backordered to Jan 🤦🏻♂️ Honestly, it feels rather comfortable on the stock gears, or maybe I’ve just gotten used to them 🤷🏻♂️ I do think a regear is a good idea though, especially if I can ever get to 40’s, which I am working on. A few more photos & videos on my Instagram page @tiny_the_200
How did you squeeze 37’s?? I’m running a 33” and I’m maxed on clearance. Looks so good
@@Trugoy1 I feel like I might have answered this in another comment but maybe not. I have a body lift (tapered 1 3/4” front to 1 1/4” rear) then moved the front cab body mounts back on the frame. I also trimmed the fenders but that’s more for the next larger size tire. I also have the front swaybar removed and the common AHC sensor lift. Wheel spacers to clear the UCA. Kind of a lot of things, but also rather simple solution in my opinion.
@@tiny_the_200 thanks! You on IH8MUD?
@@Trugoy1 yep, MTKID. You?
Do you have a build thread going? I never would have imagined an LX on 37's!
No, I’m sorry. I need to do one but I’m wordy and I overthink everything. One day I’ll do one on Mud. There’s one on there for my old 100 on 37’s (mtkid) which is now sold. And hopefully this will be on 40’s next month (and stay in one piece 😬) A lot of things are possible when sheet metal is optional 😉 Best place to keep up to date is my Instagram account @tiny_the_200
@@tiny_the_200 hahah I’m the same way and wound up finding a post of yours explaining the work by accident tonight
Pretty amazed to hear that you’re still running ahc, which I found encouraging as I’m looking to go from a 2000 100 series LC on 34.4’s on to a LX570 soon
Which shock absorber did you install on the lx570
And does it interfere with 4low and crawl control engagement?
Because 4low engagement will activate the Automatic height adjustment ( if it was original manufacture shock absorber)
It still has the factory AHC shocks & system. I have removed the front swaybar. It rides around at Normal height on the road and I put it into High while on the trail. I also added the factory spacer to the front, and an aftermarket 30mm coil spacer to the rear to preload the coil a little after adjusting the height sensors up a little.
@@tiny_the_200 Thanks a lot for the info .. also thanks for sharing, cool video
How has the onroad performance changed with the 37"s? I had an fj on 35s and acceleration and breaking where noticeably delayed
My perspective may be slightly jaded. I had my last 100 on 37’s and feel like this motor in the 200 (5.7) and the stock brakes do quite well. In fact I’m working on squeezing 40’s under it now. I should probably do a brake upgrade next but I feel like the motor and the 4.88 gears are sufficient.
@@tiny_the_200 Yeah that V8 can handle it better. What lift kit are you running? I'm starting to convert my 08 LX into an overland vehicle, but having a hard time finding lift kits and a front bumper/armor
@@QualityBuiltUSA well, I’m not running much of a lift kit at all. This rig has the Toyota strut spacers in the front and a 30mm coil spacer in the rear, neither of which actually lift the vehicle though, they merely preload the coils a little so the AHC isn’t working as hard after adjusting the sensors to lift the vehicle a little bit. I mostly have a body lift and cut fenders and a moved front cab body mount to run the 37’s (and removed front swaybar and trimmed all other sheet metal or plastic bumper parts that still got in the way). The body lift feels pretty critical to get to 37’s, but if all you are wanting is a reliable overlanding rig, follow TeCKis300 on the mud forum for his how-to running full 35x12.5 tires under a 200. He outlines it perfectly 👌🏼
@@tiny_the_200 I'll check him out. Thanks
How much did you pay for that eagle tho 😮
Lol. I would have given him a fish if he had stuck around 😉
For taking off the chrome side door molding, did you just pull it off? Were there holes where it was installed?
On the earlier models they were just held on by trim tape so I was able to use dental floss to cut through the tape and then clean off the remaining residue. Sometimes a thin fishing line can be used. The later models with holes, some have taken to a body shop to actually be filled/welded shut and repainted. Others have found a close match in vinyl and ran a strip of vinyl across the bottom of both doors. Hardly noticeable if the vinyl matches closely. Hope that helps 🤙🏼
Is software light enough for 37s on lx570? (17 inch wheels)
I’m sorry, I don’t understand your question.
@@tiny_the_200 auto correct, I was asking if the software lift is enough for fitting 17" wheels and 37 tires.
@@m0stafasorry, I see I never responded. No, I don’t feel like the sensor lift, or the software adjustments that are available in Techstream are enough for 37’s. I have a body lift, which I feel is critical, and other modifications.
How'd you get 37s on there?
Lol. It’s magic. Same magic sawzall & grinder that has me on 40’s now. You can see more recent content on my Instagram @tiny_the_200
When you say tapered body lift, do you mean leveled the front?
Most people do a simple 1” spacer ( or whatever height they choose) for each body mount location. I choose to use a 1 3/4” spacer at the front body mount location, 1 1/4” at the back location and the appropriate sizes in the middle two locations. This gave me extra clearance at the front where I need it for the tire to turn. The tires tuck perfectly in the rear (after a tiny bit of clearancing behind the tire).
@@tiny_the_200 did this change your sensor lift choices? Or did it just help to naturally level the truck out?
@@zanetaylor7 I still have all three selectable positions, but they’re all just oriented up a little further. Maybe around 1 1/2” in front and 1 1/4” in the back since I have a little custom bracket on my front UCA that allows me to adjust it a little further than normal. Have to be careful though, because you can easily go too far and the suspension ends up way too stiff and bouncy. I also have the front strut spacers to help preload the front a little.
Edit: sorry, I see this is a reply to the body lift question. Are you asking about my body lift or the AHC sensor adjustment for a little more lift? One doesn’t really have any effect on the other.
@@tiny_the_200 That answers my question. I was thinking the taper, not the body lift, could change the amount of change applied to each sensor.
Great to hear some real talk on what its like to lift the AHC beyond an inch. Makes me think that a trim and body lift is really all I need to have the best of everything on 33/34 inch tires as a DD
@@zanetaylor7 you don’t need to trim fenders or do a body lift for 33/34’s. @TeCKis300 on mud has the recipe for 35’s w/o either of those. It’s important to have the perfect wheel offset though. Are you @1UZJ80N60 on mud?
How did you lift the LX to fit 37s?
I have a tapered body lift, cut fenders and moved body mounts. That’s the short answer 😉
@@tiny_the_200 that’s amazing does the hydraulic suspension system KDSS still work?
@@AdamAhmed-vr4nt yes, the AHC suspension is still all intact. Most of the videos and photos on Instagram ( @tiny_the_200 ) are all in High, but I drive around at normal height and it goes into low just fine without rubbing. And no KDSS on these LX’s in the U.S. They would have a standard swaybar front and rear. I have removed the front swaybar.
Where is this place?
Liked and subscribed by the way.
It is a trail above Cooke City, Montana. Just don’t tell anyone else 😉
@@tiny_the_200 haha okey dokey.👍🏼
@@HappyCarReviews as much as I love living in a less populated area of the country and having trails like this in my backyard, small towns like Cooke City make the majority of their living from visitors, so come and help out the locals when you enjoy the beautiful trails. Just do so respectfully please - #leavenotrace
@@tiny_the_200 Sure will...✌🏼
Does anyone has passenger side water leak? NEED HELP!
I haven’t personally dealt with this issue but a few people have over on the Ih8mud.com forum. Hopefully this link will help you… forum.ih8mud.com/threads/leak.1232296/
@@tiny_the_200 Thank you. I read so many posts already, but still cant fix my issue.
@@tiny_the_200 YES YES!!!!!!! THANKS A LOT!!!!! That is exactly what I was looking for(with my english knowledge it was hard to find) thanks again!
@@yraponyatkin9479 👍🏼 glad it helped 😉
@@tiny_the_200 now I understand how cool that water leak system Lexus design(just small mistake and wow, water is coming) I completely shocked from Lexus for $90-100k car back in 2010.
Goose lake, in New Mexico?
No, Montana.
What suspension?
You might find your answer in the other responses I’ve given 😉 but the short answer is stock AHC suspension still.
How much lift?
Maybe ~ 1-1.5” of suspension lift (from AHC sensor adjustment & front OEM spacer), + body lift.
