Late introduction - new GX OT+

[Bic Jet]

Lol bic jet - first off, congratulations on your inbound rig. Aren’t you too busy planning your build to crack jokes?

Actually, mine is no longer on the way. I changed colors to Nori Green, so now I am little further back on the list. I know, just like a school girl changing her mind again and again! Nori Green, FINAL ANSWER.

Made for function, although their welds are work of art. Oem would crumple/fall apart if you thrashed it offroad. Does add weight, but that is necessary tradeoff given materials used

Just brought her home. Unfortunate that the entire freeway network in the Bay Area was an utter disaster, but the silver lining is I got to spend extra time in the new rig. I’ll do a more detailed write up tomorrow, but I’ll share a pic of the finished product and say I am ecstatic with how it turned out. All the credit to Dissent Offroad, what an outstanding company and group of people. Really tempted to buy a Tacoma this weekend lol. Outside of the minor noise that accompanies portal axles + additional road noise with larger tires, I think the driving experience is much better, and I can’t wait to run it through its paces offroad.

Very awesome! Those are some wheels.

You motivated me to order the same front bumper. Thanks for sharing.

 

[Bic Jet]

Agreed on the bumpers. I need front and rear bumpers from Dissent now that I am sporting 35's!!

Glad you like and are enjoying it!

Any further report on the portals? Looking for further feedback from those with the GX.

Sorry for the late reply. It’s still a joy to drive. The additional feedback from the portal axles (noise and steering wheel) you stop noticing. I do prefer the handling of the vehicle after the mods, better than oem due to width increase. Paying nearly 7/gal at 11mpg sucks but that’s what I get.

Truck is still too new, but outside of oil changes the dealer will be of zero assistance given the mods.

Bottom line, still love it, zero regrets

Ps. Still have oem rock sliders I’ll give away for free to any norcal locals.

And how the heck did I never win GX of the month!? Rigged!

Thank you for your report. Good to hear that there are no regrets.
