Hello all. I am new to the group coming from the North Houston area. For the last 15 years I’ve driven Ford trucks and been happy with them, but just don’t need a truck anymore. A smoother ride and more comfortable interior soon, I hope - maybe end of the month or early next month. Years ago I had a LX 450 that could not be stopped. Looking forward to the same reliability and comfort. I posted a question about replacement rims if you can offer advice.

congrats, you’ll love it. A bit of an upgrade over a LX450, that’s for sure, this one can actually accelerate to 70mph :)

I actually still own an FZJ80

Beautiful vehicle, a real brute! Now to be fair my old 450 would hit 70 and above. It just took a while to get there which made entering Houston speedways exiting.
 
I added spidertrax spacers to my OT to give it a flush fit. Cheap and easy and improves the look. I don’t mind the color/design of the stock OT wheels personally, but I get the itch to change. My favorite aftermarket options are the Volk ZE40X, but I wish they made them without the writing on the face. They aren’t cheap, but neither is the GX!

The FZJ80 pictured above actually has a 6BT cummins swap, so not lacking in power!
