Finally found some time to join the GX forum and properly introduce myself and my build!

My GX550 is currently sitting at around 37,500 miles. It only stayed stock for the first 2,000 miles or so, and it’s been modified and evolving ever since. I’ve put plenty of miles on it in its current and previous setups, and thankfully, it’s been running great with no major issues.

Over time, I’ve gotten a lot of questions through Instagram, Facebook, and other platforms about the build everything from specific parts and fitment to how certain mods have held up over the miles. Quite a few people have told me I should join the GX forum and share my experience here, so… here I am!

I’m always happy to answer questions about the build, share my experience with different parts, or give feedback on what has and hasn’t worked for me. If you’re considering a similar setup or just have questions about a particular mod, feel free to ask. I’ll do my best to give you a straightforward answer based on my actual experience with the GX.

Looking forward to learning from everyone here as well and seeing what everyone else is doing with their builds. Nice to meet y’all!
