🛠️ What did you do in your GX today?

🛠️
Threw it up on the lift to do its first oil change under my ownership. Sent the oil out to Blackstone to do its first UOA to establish baseline.

Moved to Motul 8100 5W30 (its hot here in Texas and I use this to tow/haul) + Wix XP filter + Liqui Moly MOS2 additive. This combo has done fantastic on my shop's customer and personal cars with Blackstone results data.

Just got home from an extended trip through 9 states with several days spent in the Montana back country. Saw a total of one GX(incognito) on the trip, although my wife did talk to someone in Cody, WY who said they had one at home. Maybe 5 or 6 LC250s.

Immediately as soon as I am back home in city limits get behind a GX fully decked out in every "Overlanding" piece of equipment you can bolt on. Just had to chuckle a bit.

Loving the GX, and even better so does my wife.
So true!! My recent trip of a few weeks was MT, WY, ID, & CO in my 2025OT. Besides Denver area I saw 3 GX550s. Three!! Compared to a short trip to a coffee shop in Dallas-Ft Worth where I may see 10 or more. The advisors at my dealership tell me I'm the only GX customer they know of who goes off road.. When I bring it in for service it sometimes is covered in dirt and bugs. Plus the rear cargo area is completely scuffed up and worn from throwing gear in there. Love this thing!!
 
Installed OEM window visors and hood deflector. It’s amazing how 5 pieces of plastic can make me so happy today lmfao.

S/O BoostedGX for the hood deflector TY.

I installed some goodies.

Radlfo 2.5 with external res front and rear (used, but super good deal thanks to @Jheri )
Camburg Kinetik uniball/heim UCAs
Westcott Designs rear upper spring perch on stock springs (used, but also a good deal for the full westcott kit, thanks to @Bluegill )

These dumb Michelins (they came on the truck) have got to go, looks so dinky. May throw on some temporary/in-between wheels and 35s for now while I wait for my actual wheels which are on backorder.

Replaced front MT64s with the HD version of them and testing out Dobinsons 817v for the rear. Sits almost perfectly level (at most 0.25" of rake) but hoping it'll be closer to 0.5" - 0.75" after the front settles and I add my winch. Only have bumper, drawers, and a fridge in the back right now but once everything settles, going to load it all up with my gear + swingout and decide if I want to swap back to 819v.
